AT Gold Metal Detector by Garrett
Garrett AT Gold Metal Detector with 5″x 8″ PROformance DD submersible Search Coil, Garrett MasterSound headphones, 4x AA Batteries, and more!
The AT Gold metal detector was designed to find tiny gold nuggets in the most challenging prospecting environments, including shallow freshwater hunting. This All-Terrain detector features:
- All-Metal Mode
- Graphic Target Analyzing
- Digital Target ID
- Iron Discrimination
- Adjustable Threshold
- Pro Mode Audio
- Manual & Automatic Ground Balance
- Electronic Pinpointing
Go searching in freshwater streams and lakes!
The Garrett AT Gold is waterproof to a maximum depth of 10 feet (3 meters)
Enhanced detection of small gold nuggets, jewelry, coins, and relics
AT Gold operates at a very high 18 kHz frequency which is even further optimized for gold prospecting.
The AT Gold includes a True All Metal Mode
The All Metal Mode is amazing for prospecting because it allows the greatest possible depth and sensitivity. It also allows a continuous audio response to provide the operator to hear the most subtle detection signals produced by faint targets.
The AT Gold is a Motion All-Metal detector
Any slight motion of the search coil is required to continue detection, although static detection of targets can still be accomplished while in Pinpoint mode. The AT Gold includes manual and automatic Ground Balance plus an added exclusive Ground Balance Window feature to enhance the detector’s performance in highly mineralized ground, where gold is most often found.
In addition to its True All Metal Mode
The AT Gold includes 2 Discrimination Modes, making it a skilled coin and relic hunting device. When selecting either the DISC 1 or DISC 2 mode, the operator gains more Tone ID information from objects in addition to the ability to discriminate undesirable trash targets (e.g. nails, foil, pull tabs).
Features
- All-Metal Mode - Discover the deepest detection depth and sensitivity on the smallest nuggets with
- Graphic Target Analyzing - Simultaneously shows the target’s conductivity and the detector’s discrimination pattern.
- All Terrain - Designed for use in wet, humid, and dusty environments. Weatherproof housing can be immersed in water to 10-foot (3m) depth.
- Digital Target ID - Numeral scale from 0 to 99; indicates a target metal’s conductivity for increased ability to distinguish targets from each other.
- High-Resolution Iron Discrimination - Provides 40 points of iron resolution—controlled with touchpads and viewed as a digital number on the LCD—for the most precise ability to separate a good target from iron trash.
- Adjustable Threshold - This allows the user to manually adjust the audio threshold (constant background sound) to better hear targets.
- Pro Mode Audio - Proportional audio response and Tone Roll Audio features provide more target information.
- Iron Audio™ - This allows the user to hear discriminated iron and to audibly identify problematic flat iron objects like bottle caps and washers.
- All-Metal Iron Audio™ - A Garrett exclusive feature that allows users to audibly identify iron objects while operating in a True All-Metal Mode.
- Ground Balance (Manual) - This allows the user to manually adjust the detector’s ground balance to reduce the detrimental effects of ground mineralization.
- Ground Balance Window™ - A Garrett exclusive feature that allows users to “spread” the ground balance setting to reduce the response to subtle ground variations.
- Fast Track™ Ground Balance - Automatic feature that allows users to quickly ground balance the detector in mineralized soil conditions.
- Electronic Pinpointing - This Non-Motion All-Metal Mode is used to precisely locate a detected target’s location in the ground.
- One-Touch Treasure Hunting - With the touch of a button, your metal detector is: powered on; automatically reset to factory (or your) settings, and ready to search!

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
Is it good in salt water?
Because the AT Gold is optimized to find small gold pieces, use in saltwater is not recommended for this detector. Its ability to find small gold makes it equally reactive to the conductivity of salt water. This detector's ground balance adjustment is optimized to provide the greatest resolution in the normal ground range and is not designed to address saltwater. The AT Gold will, however, perform well for hunting coins and jewelry on dry sand beach areas. -
Can this unit be used in salt water ? ,I live on Long Island NY surrounded by beaches ,have a Cobra but not good for jewelry.thank you
Not good in salt water. Pro and Max work in salt
