Bulletproof, and DEEP!!

Charles N. Rile in Youngstown OH -
I bought one of these at a garage sale, and what a gem. Dug a 1951 silver dime out at 3" the first evening. Nice sounding speaker tone also. Thanks Fisher.

1212X Simple and Effective!

John Baumchen in Michigan -
I bought this one off ebay for my oldest boy. He wanted to get into this hobby bad. It is perfect! It is light, works great and does not eat 9 volts! It is simple on knob. It detects anything and will go pretty deep! I paid $79 and I think it was money well spent. It works on wet grass just as well as dry grass. It finds brass, copper, gold, silver, tin, bronze etc......The discrimination knob works well. It fits me at 6'2" and my 9 year old which is about 5' tall.

Old time fisher quality

Eddy in Dallas Texas -
This machine is great, depth is almost the same in full disc, as in no disc. For hunting coins this is the easy one to use, and easy on the budget as well. My 10 year old son was hitting coins almost as soon as he picked it up.
Novice to Advanced this one is one to have.

GOOD AT A GREAT PRICE

Mike J in Mid Michigan -
I have been detecting since 1971. Owned a lot of different detectors. Never owned any easier to use. One knob does it all. I bought it because I didn't want to drag the more expensive detector through the bushes, mud and rocks. Several thousand coins later, including Indians, seated and silver I cant find much to complain about. Other detectors may go deeper or discriminate better but I dont think you can find a better basic detector.

Excellent Detector for the money!

Will in TN -
I am a low end metal detector buyer as I find the less controls I have to play with the better. If I get one with too many knobs, meter and buttons, I fool with them instead of finding coins. I use that one at home to do air tests and play with the controls!

Anyway, the Fisher 1212X is the way to go if you are like me. Very light weight 2.9 lbs and runs on a single 9 volt battery (Use alkaline folks, 25-30 hrs). You can sweep this detector very slow and have no problem getting a smooth response to a target. Pipointing is it's only flaw. It takes practice to get accurate.

Fisher brags about double derivative electronics, I call it easy to use. I got a used one on ebay for less than $100.00 including shipping!

Good luck! Will
