Fisher Gold Bug Metal Detector

Born to find gold. The Fisher Gold Bug runs at 19 kHz — one of the highest VLF frequencies available — making it exceptionally sensitive to small, low-conductivity targets like gold flakes and tiny nuggets in heavily mineralized ground. Whether you're working the goldfields or relic hunting in rough terrain, this is the detector serious prospectors reach for.

Lightweight at just 2.5 lbs, with a padded grip and adjustable armrest, it swings easy all day. The 5" DD searchcoil excels in tight spots and delivers accurate pinpointing. Ground Grab® automatic ground balancing adapts to soil conditions in real time so you stay focused on finding gold, not fighting the ground.
