GPX 5000 & Coils
Jennifer Bond replied to nugget7's topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
Super excited for you Bob, thanks for sharing your results. I'm very happy to hear my guidance worked out, you won't be disappointed in that coil, Evo's are my favorite and have found me lots of color.... and come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, see page 2 of the below link for a 25" DD Chris sold me.. in fact I just ordered one of their new Z Search coils for my GPZ which should be fun to use on my pounded patches... welcome to Evo ownership. -

Hi Jennifer, I followed your advice & found a new Nuggetfinder 14"x9" Evo. mono from a guy who got it in a package deal. Tested on a few sub. gram .03 & .04 nuggets as compared to the ML 11" mono. Really a much better signal. Thanks again. Bob -

GPX 5000 & Coils
Jennifer Bond replied to nugget7's topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
Agree with Chris, only add would be that if you're a relic hunter, hold onto a DD for discrimination. Jen (super excited as my new Nugget Finder Z-Search coil Chris sent should be here today scratch that, just checked, won't be here till Tuesday... Yay, thanks again Chris) -
Outstanding AZ Specimen!
Chris Gholson posted a topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
I had a customer that bought a detector a while back stop by my office this morning. When he came in I noticed he was carrying a large, leather pouch. He also had a big smile, and after he opened the bag I knew why. Inside was one of the prettiest Arizona specimens I have seen in a long time. The entire piece weighed in at over 7-ounces and was covered in gold. We didn’t have time to do an SG test, but I would estimate that there was approx.. 4-ounces of metal in the rock. It was a gorgeous piece, and I want to thank him again for bringing it by and letting me photograph it…Have a great weekend everyone! -
GPX 5000 & Coils
Chris Gholson replied to nugget7's topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
I would agree with Jen; the Evolution coils really brightened up my GPX. The 14x9" EVO is a great size for the AZ goldfields. If you can't go with the EVO, I would hang onto the 11" Mono and the 15x12" Mono. Good luck out there! -

Hi Jen, Thanks for the advice...giving it careful consideration. -
GPX 5000 & Coils
Jennifer Bond replied to nugget7's topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
Sell them all and buy a Nugget Finder Evolution.... once you put one of them on, you'll never use any of the others..... ask me how I know..... if you don't want to do that and want to use one you have, depending on where you are the elliptical is handy for under and between scrub. Jen -
Just purchased a used GPX 5000 with four coils. The machine just has about one or two hours on it, and it looks brand-new as do the coils. Actually, only one coils was ever attached to the machine. Just wondering for here in Arizona, if I just wanted to retain one or two coils, which would you recommend that I keep out of these minelab coils: 18 inch round Mono 15 x 12 elliptical Mono 10 inch round Mono 10 inch DD round Thanks in advance for your advice.

Anyone using the new Nugget Finder Z-Search GPZ Coil
Chris Gholson replied to Jennifer Bond's topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
I have a very small batch of the new GPZ 12" Coils from Nugget Finder on the way. The new "Z-Search" Coil will be 300-grams (or 10.5 ounces) lighter than the stock coil, it will include a genuine Minelab lower shaft, and best of all, NO modifications or adapters are needed! Several experienced prospectors (including Jen) will be putting the coil through its paces on various goldfields here in AZ, NV and CA. They should have some great feedback which we will share here and our other social media channels. The coils will be incredibly limited at first, but I expect will supply will get better as we move in 2021. If anyone has questions, or is interested in getting on the list, please send me an email at: info@arizonaoutback.com -

Customer scores with new GPX!
Chris Gholson posted a topic in AZO's: Metal Detecting & Gold Prospecting Forum
I received this photo and testimonial from a customer that recently purchased a Minelab GPX 5000. It appears that he is off to a great start! Thank you once again for the business, and for sharing your new finds with us. “Hi Chris, I'm up over 1/2 ounce in nuggets since I bought the 5000. My last 5 nuggets were found with the little 8x6 Nugget Finder "Sadie". Thanks again!”
