Recently went on beach vacation with my wife on 10/1. Of course we agreed I would be able to detect. So I brought my CZ20 & my Sovereign Elite.
My intention was to compare both of these detectors. I favor my CZ20, I hip mount it and use in on land. It is a awesome machine, and has found me majority of my deep coins.
However, I was not able to compare them. Because I found the first silver ring with the Sovereign and it was pulling up some deep coins too. So I decided it was working so why change. It kept finding more and more items. It was a awesome week. I found (5) rings. 2-Silver, 1-10k, 2 - junkers. Also found a 10k pendant with real tiny diamonds.
Also found maybe $6 clad, junk pendant (Peace) and a pot pipe. Had awesome time. Glad the Sovereign came through, because I have been using it for most the year, and found (1) IH between 6-8 not totally sure. But I know it was deep. And I started having mix feelings about the unit. Thinking I should grab the CZ20 rather than the Sovereign. I can say this for sure, the Sovereign did work well at the beach. Would my CZ20 had done even better. Don't know, maybe next time I will give my favorite land machine a chance to shine.
I used a waterproof backpack to put the Sovereign in and tried to waterproof it with plastic. It was water resistance, not waterproof due to the cables coming out of pack.
Happy hunting everyone!
