Minelab VANQUISH 440

The Minelab VANQUISH 440 is an approachable Multi-IQ detector for coins, jewelry, relics and beach hunting. It gives beginners simultaneous multi-frequency performance without the deeper settings menu of an advanced detector.

Who the VANQUISH 440 is for

It is a practical choice for a first detector when easy setup, compact storage and broad ground coverage matter. It is not the best choice if you need a fully submersible control box.
