The Delta 4000 nails all three for $189: a 2-digit numeric target ID with three honest audio tones, a running depth readout from 0 to 8 in (0 to 20 cm) that updates as you sweep, and a fully static push-button pinpoint that ends the guess-digging that makes beginners quit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Delta 4000\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts 7.8 kHz frequency is the classic coin-hunting sweet spot: strong on the silver, copper, and clad that fills parks and yards, calm enough to stay quiet in ordinary ground. Discrimination mode for trashy areas and true All Metal for open fields cover the two hunts a new detectorist actually does. At 2.6 lb (1.2 kg) it is genuinely light, the 8 in (20 cm) concentric coil is waterproof for creek edges, and a single 9V battery runs up to 25 hours. One market note worth knowing: one of the biggest specialist dealers in the country has sold out of the Delta for good as they exit the brand; we stock it as part of carrying the full Teknetics line, with the Alpha below it and the Gamma above it when you want to compare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDelta 4000\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating frequency\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.8 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTarget ID\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-digit numeric on large LCD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRunning indicator, 0 to 8 in (0 to 20 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiscrimination and All Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-tone discrimination\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePinpoint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFully static, push-button\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSearch coil\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 in (20 cm) concentric, waterproof\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.6 lb (1.2 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9V alkaline, up to 25 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBuilt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTeknetics (First Texas Products), Made in the USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelta 4000 control unit and shaft with 8 in (20 cm) waterproof concentric coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeknetics factory warranty (First Texas Products)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHistory Seekers is an authorized Teknetics dealer with the full line in stock.
