Minelab X-TERRA ELITE Expedition Pack Metal Detector with Pro-Find 40 Pinpointer

The Minelab X-TERRA ELITE Expedition Pack is a fully waterproof Multi-IQ metal detector that ships with two coils, wireless headphones, and a Pro-Find 40 pinpointer, a complete kit for detectorists who want simultaneous multi-frequency detection without assembling accessories piecemeal. Built around Minelab's Multi-IQ platform and rated to 16 feet submersion, the X-TERRA ELITE runs six search modes across park, beach, field, and gold sites while the included V12X and V8X elliptical coils let you match coil size to target density and terrain. The Pro-Find 40 pinpointer closes the recovery loop, and ML-85 low-latency wireless headphones keep audio crisp without cable snag. This bundle targets the intermediate hunter stepping up from single-frequency machines or the experienced detectorist adding a waterproof rig to the rotation.

Multi-IQ Stability Across Mineralized Ground and Saltwater Beach Sand

Parks and Iron-Choked Homesteads

Park 1 and Park 2 modes run Multi-IQ simultaneous frequencies, so you hear silver dimes masked beside iron nails that single-frequency machines null out. The 119-segment discrimination grid lets you notch pull-tabs and foil while accepting coins in adjacent conductivity bands, and four-level Iron Bias control filters ferrous clutter without blanking the entire target range. High-resolution target ID across 99 non-ferrous segments separates wheat pennies from zinc memorials at decision depth, and the V12X coil's 12-inch sweep covers ground faster in open fields.

Wet Salt Beach Sand and Surf Wading

Beach 1 and Beach 2 modes lock Multi-IQ to frequencies optimized for saltwater ground, eliminating the false signals and chatter that single-frequency detectors throw in wet sand. The control box and both coils carry full submersion rating, so you wade into surf breaks and hunt the trough without worrying about a rogue wave. Twenty-five sensitivity levels let you back off gain in heavily mineralized black sand or push depth in calm conditions, and All-Tones audio gives you a pitch response that shifts with target conductivity, you learn gold ring tones versus bottle cap tones after a few sessions.

Gold-Bearing Soil and Ironstone Country

Gold mode runs Multi-IQ tuned for small, low-conductivity targets in hot ground. The V8X coil's smaller footprint separates nuggets from hot rocks in tight spaces, and 25 sensitivity levels let you tune reactivity when the ground phase swings. Iron volume control lets you silence ferrous responses entirely or leave them audible at reduced gain, so you hear the ground without missing a faint gold signal beside a rusty nail. The Pro-Find 40 pinpointer included in this pack speeds recovery in rocky soil where visual target isolation is difficult.

Built for All-Day Hunting and Low-Light Recovery

• Lightweight ergonomics for extended sessions: collapsed length stores in a vehicle, extended length adjusts to operator height, and total detector weight stays under three pounds so wrist fatigue doesn't cut the hunt short.
• Integrated flashlight and backlit controls for after-dark detecting: red backlit display, backlit keypad, and control-pod flashlight let you hunt parks after sunset when competition thins out, and vibration feedback in the handgrip confirms targets without audio when you're working quiet sites.
• Two coil sizes adapt to site conditions: the V12X covers open fields and beaches faster, the V8X fits tight spaces between playground equipment and separates targets in trashy tot lots where larger coils see multiple objects as a single smeared response.
• Pro-Find 40 pinpointer closes the recovery loop: proportional audio and vibration intensity increase as the tip nears the target, so you pinpoint coins in a plug without expanding the hole, and our pinpointer picks explain why the Pro-Find 40 remains a field standard for intermediate and advanced hunters.
• ML-85 wireless headphones eliminate cable snag: low-latency audio keeps target response synchronized with coil sweep, battery life covers multiple sessions, and the over-ear design blocks wind noise that drowns faint signals when hunting exposed beaches or ridgelines.
