Fisher Gold Bug II with10.5" Search Coil Metal Detector
Fisher engineers worked for years to build a metal detector that would carry on the Gold Bug's well-deserved reputation as the worlds premier nugget hunter, and this is it! Like the original Gold Bug Metal Detector, the Gold Bug II is designed for finding gold nuggets. It offers extraordinary sensitivity, ultra- high frequency (the highest operating frequency on the market), iron discrimination, dust and moisture resistance, audio boost and the ability to operate in extremely mineralized soil with a 3 position mineralization switch. It comes with a 10" elliptical search coil and is backed by Fisher's Limited 5 year Warranty.

After 76 years in the metal detector business, Fisher is a brand that has proven they unite treasure hunters with lost coins, relics, and treasures. The Fisher Gold Bug II more than lives up to its predecessor’s reputation as a legendary nugget hunter. It is an accurate and deep seeking gold detector with 71 kHz’s to detect even the tiniest of gold nuggets. The arm rest is comfortably positioned above the controls and adjustable to fit your arm while the grip is made from durable, high-friction foam. The following information comes from our own experience with the Fisher Gold Bug II and is meant to help those who are thinking about getting one for the first time as well as those who already have one.
The model we’re featuring comes standard with a 10.5” shielded, waterproof, elliptical searchcoil. Both larger and smaller coils are available in the accessories area for this metal detector, but the 10” is a great place to start. This searchcoil is versatile and deep-seeking, making it effective for any type of detecting. Because it is waterproof you can submerge this coil into water without any adverse affect on the operation of the detector – this is perfect for hunting in the shallow waters of beaches and rivers as well as on land!
The Gold Bug II’s high operating frequency is one of the highest on the market, and combined with the iron discrimination this almost guarantees you’ll find treasure! Gold prospecting is taken to a new level with this detector’s low-noise output, temperature-compensated components, ultra high sensitivity and Fisher’s state-of-the-art circuitry. Such a combination of advanced gold-seeking technology allows you to hear faint, deep signals even on the hottest rocks!
We’re Friends Who Love This Hobby Metal Detectors for Less was born after four treasure hunting friends spent almost 30 years on sites all over the world hunting for treasure. We were frequently asked “What are you doing?” as we walked over all kinds of terrain searching for targets, and after explaining the joy, excitement, and descriptions of treasures found, many people wanted to know where they could get their own metal detector. Since we were all familiar with all different kinds of metal detectors, either from our own tried and true experience with a brand or from being employed at metal detector distributors, we offered some good advice for people; where they could find the best detector, and more importantly, the best price for their needs. After years of passing our favorite hobby on to friends and acquaintances we decided to do the same for anyone who wants to get the best detector at the best price. We really believe that metal detectors are fun to use, great exercise, and pays off in finds of money, rings, jewelry, gold, relics, artifacts and, in many cases, real treasures. And thus, Metal Detectors for Less was born – from friends who genuinely love our hobby.
