Hi Renee,
Thank you for your question about the Bounty Hunter Discovery 1100 metal detector. This detector is aimed at finding coins, relics and treasure. While any metal detector can technically find gold, not all can handle the mineralisation of gold bearing ground and can become chatty or give off false signals.
When searching for gold you need a more specialised detector.
Here is a link to our gold and multi purpose detector page. If you have any questions just let us know.

Hi, can I just check that this can be used underwater? Thanks
Hi,
Yes the Bounty Hunter Discovery 1000 Metal Detector has a waterproof search coil, so searching in water is not a problem. It is important to note that the control box is not waterproof so can not be submerged. When detecting in water just make sure you keep the control box above the water line.

Hi I'm looking at this for my 13 year old son. Would it be suitable for the beach and river areas?
Hi,
Thanks for getting in touch. Absolutely, the Bounty Hunter Discovery 1100 is the perfect weight and level for a teen. It's really lightweight and great for detecting on the beach, rivers and land and will give him years of fun exploring his surrounds.
