The AT Gold is a Motion All Metal detector, meaning that slight motion of the searchcoil is required to maintain detection, although static detection of targets can be achieved while in Pinpoint mode.
The AT Gold includes manual and automatic Ground Balance—plus an exclusive Ground Balance WindowTM feature—to optimize the detector's performance in highly mineralized ground, where gold is most often found.
This detector is also waterproof to a maximum depth of 10 feet (3 meters) for searching in freshwater lakes and streams.
In addition to its True All Metal Mode, the AT Gold includes two Discrimination Modes, making it a versatile coin and relic hunting machine.
When selecting either the DISC 1 or DISC 2 mode, the operator gains more Tone ID information from targets in addition to the ability to discriminate unwanted trash targets (e.g. nails, foil, pull tabs).
The AT Gold also features simple, one-handed operation for all controls—no dials or knobs that require a second hand to adjust.
Garrett's exclusive Target ID technology provides two indicator scales which allow you to see the detector’s discrimination setting (lower Scale) as well as the analysis of each target (upper Scale).
In addition, the Digital Target ID provides a more specific target value.
The AT Gold also features High resolution Iron Discrimination (40 points) for separating desirable targets from iron junk, several advanced audio features, and a standard 5"x8" (13x20cm) DD searchcoil optimized for detecting small nuggets in challenging mineralized soils.
Backed by more than 45 years of extensive research and development, your Garrett AT Gold metal detector is the most advanced of its kind in the industry. The AT Gold's advanced audio features are designed for the serious prospector but will also prove to be very appealing to coin and relic hunters.
