F-Point
For Treasure Hunting
and unearthing small
objects
After identifying the presence of a
metal object in the ground,
pinpointing its exact location, and
separating it from the earth, can be
frustrating and time consuming.
With the F-Point, retrieving coins
and other small metal objects is
easy.
Unearthing
Small Objects
A buried object, especially after
the passage of times, can be
indistinguishable from the soil it is
buried in. In addition, historical
objects will lose value if damaged in
the unearthing process.
It is therefore recommended to
use the F-Point in a probing or sifting
process. The tip of the F-Point will
detect a coin-sized metal object
approximately 3/4” to 1” away from
the tip of the probe. Probe the tip of
the F-Point directly into the ground;
poke around directly on the surface
in different areas until the internal
buzzer activates. If the earth is loose
enough, lift handfuls of soil out of the
ground and probe in the palm of your
hand with the F-Point.
