These numbers are questonable...even for mineoro. If the coins were only 70cm under earth surface - looks bit shorty for mineoro probably this is 70 m .. Or maybe Emperor Justinian in AD1500 tryed to detect deep coin cache like Carl.

$2.000,00 or $12.000,00 ?? And the question is how were the 100 gold coins smuggled from Jordan to USA :confused: + intelligent service behind..??
Hey but yes..detectorists are damage-makers for archaeologists.
I agree the depth and value infos are conflicting. My guess is 70 cm and US$ 12K for the coins for its age. 16th century brazilian and portuguese gold coins are worth 2K average, so it makes sense.
Mineoro did not post this on their site yet, I assume due to the fact they are also trying to confirm the story before posting it. Their policy is honest and correct. This info was passed to me by a friend who works there.
But as his friend came all the way from Jordan to buy himself a detector because of his friend's sucess, you can deduce the reason...

Please first tell how you confirmed above Gold found statement before you continue with other evidences and hard facts.
The next two if confirmed (still checking) will surprise many people here as it may have happened to some of us members.

I do not understand Hungs bad attitude towards Carl... finaly Carl helps Hung advertising mineoro with existance of this forum and this thread... who knowns how many naive people bought mineoros and other C.#.#.P. devices with help of such golden found forum threads. Hey Carl maybe mineoro should fund your server bills .
No. The bad attitude was not from me. Carl posted that 'silly' clues postings trying to induce people to believe Mineoro paid Mitchell to 'advertise' their detector. Esteban and I presented the true story which 'debunked' any speculation on the contrary.
