Is there a metal detector that will detect only gold? i know an area where gold bars were dumped in the water back in 1927. The problem is that there is so much trash (beer cans, metal pipe, fishing sinkers, etc.) that I could spend years searching.

As far as I know there is no such detector. You can only rely on the discrimination abilities of your machine. However disrciminating junk like aluminium may kill your gold signal. Could you please gibe me some more detail on what kind of ground they were dumped? E.g. Salt Water, Fresh Water, What Depth, What kind of Mud / Soil, How many bars, What size etc. Mabye I can giy you some better advice then.

Best wishes,

Christian

It is in a freshwater creek that empties in to a salt water bay. The water depth is between 3' and 6' deep and there is about 2' of soft mud before you hit hard bottom. I don't know the size of the gold bars but there was about 20 bars dumped in this area.
