Product Overview

The Fisher F70 is one of the few metal detectors made to handle all aspects of treasure hunting. Equally good for gold nugget prospecting, coin, relic and jewelry hunting. Be sure to read our Guide Fisher F70 and F75 Metal Detector Comparison.

Advanced Features, Intuitive Interface

The double-filter discrimination mode of the Fisher F70 makes this metal detector worth its weight in gold. It distinguishes between unwanted metal objects, like aluminum and nails, and the more desirable metals. Plus, a two-digit setting number, displayed on the LCD monitor of the Fisher F70, indicates the type of ground mineralization from wet salt to magnetite and other black iron minerals.

Detailed Specifications:

13 kHz frequency - good for coin shooting, relic hunting, and gold prospecting
Frequency shift for eliminating electrical interference and crosstalk of other metal detectors
Advanced software-based motion discrimination with notch for searching trashy areas

Visual target ID by category item & 0-99 indication, both discrimination & auto-tune all metal mode

High-resolution push-button ground balance with ground readout
Ground balance range goes all the way to salt

I notice this Fisher F70 package has 2 DD coils? Whats the use of a coil that small?

Question by: Smitty on Jun 23, 2017, 3:13 PM Link

This Fisher F70 metal detector package comes with 2 highly desirable DD coils. The 11" coil provides great depth & ground coverage, while the 5" coil is useful for trashy areas, along fences in between rocks, etc.....

Answer by: detector reviews on Jun 23, 2017, 3:17 PM

How deep will the detector go for a dime (ten cents coin) with a clear good signal?

Question by: mike miller on Apr 9, 2018, 10:56 AM Link

There are a lot of factors that affect depth, but I would say the approx. MAX depth of the F70, when using the 11-inch DD search coil would be about 10-12 inches. This depends on the size, orientation, and composition of the target, as well as ground conditions.

Answer by: MetalDetector.com on Apr 9, 2018, 3:53 PM

Can you use this in salt water

Question by: Bill on Mar 1, 2019, 8:22 AM Link

The F70 does have a pretty good ground balance system, but if you'll be spending most of your time on a salt-water beach, you might want to consider something like this: https://www.metaldetector.com/whites-mx7-weatherproof-metal-detector-with-9-5-search-coil

Answer by: MetalDetector.com on Mar 1, 2019, 10:24 AM

Is this unit backlit?

Question by: Jim on Dec 29, 2019, 3:46 PM Link

No, it does not offer a back-light, but the display is fairly large, and so are the Target ID numbers, so it does give you a fighting chance.

Answer by: metaldetector.com on Dec 30, 2019, 10:04 AM

how deep in the ground can it detect

Question by: rosa on Feb 23, 2020, 12:01 PM Link

The F-70 has a range of about 8-10 inches or so, depending on the size/composition of the target being detected, and ground conditions.

Answer by: metaldetector.com on Feb 26, 2020, 9:10 AM

This f70 MD comes with two waterproof coils. It states it has waterproof 11" and 5" DD coils. That can be deceiving as it could be that only the 5" coil is DD and the 11" is not. Is the11" waterproof coil also DD?

Question by: rob on Aug 20, 2018, 9:06 PM Link

Sorry for any ambiguity. Both coils are waterproof, and DD style coils.

Answer by: MetalDetector.com on Aug 21, 2018, 10:04 AM

Can this detector be used in water to find gold?

Question by: Linus on Apr 19, 2018, 5:46 AM Link

AT WHAT DEPTH CAN I USE THIS DETECTOR?

Question by: CHAS W CLAYTON on Feb 28, 2018, 3:57 PM Link

The Fisher F70 is NOT waterproof, so it cannot be submerged. The search coil is, so if you find yourself detecting in a small stream, you would be ok. Just don't get the control box wet!

Answer by: MetalDetector.com on Mar 9, 2018, 11:40 AM

What is the weight of the Fisher F70 detector and how many batteries it take? MDM

Question by: MDM on Jun 23, 2017, 3:20 PM Link

The Fisher F70 detector is a very ergonomic 3 lbs with the 4 AA batteries under the arm cup.

Industry Reviews

White's Electronics is looking forward to working with Michael, Daniel and the MetalDetector.com team. Their experience in the metal detecting industry is unmatched.

I have enjoyed working with Michael, Daniel and their team at Detector Electroics Corp. They have done a fine job representing the Detector Pro line since it was first introduced in 1996. One of the things I see them do is go the extra mile for their customers. It is always nice to see a family run business endure and we wish them many years of continued success.

We appreciate the partnership from Michael and Daniel at MetalDetector.com. As a family owned business, we choose our partners carefully. We have found that their team has done a fine job of representing our line. With thirty years of success under their belt, we expect that they will be a partner for many years to come.

We at Treasure Products, manufacturer of the Vibra-Probe and Vibra-Tector, want to congratulate Daniel and Michael on the admirable milestone of being in business for over three decades. The dedication and product knowledge that your staff exhibits has been a great benefit to us. We offer our best wishes for your continued success.

Michael and Daniel have established a knowledgeable team that has done the job of getting the correct product in to the hands of each consumer. I wish them continued success as they represent our products in the years to come.

I have been impressed by the professional approach and the experience of Daniel, Michael and the entire team at Detector Electronics Corp. Three decades of superior customer care has been the key to their success and large sales volume.

We have enjoyed working with Michael, Daniel and their esteemed team at Detector Electronics Corp. We feel that they have been the best choice for representing the good reputation of the Makro Detectors in the region. They have been working towards 100% customer satisfaction ever since they started their cooperation with us as our exclusive Distributor in the USA and Canada. We are pleased to see both their business and the sales in their region continue to grow. It is nice to see both our family business and theirs growing together. We see our companies moving forward together for many years to come.

Garrett has a longstanding quality relationship with Detector Electronics Corp since the 1980s. I have seen them grow from a regional dealer to one of the largest internet dealers yet they have maintained that special care for the customer for over three decades. Their team of knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff and family make their dealership a first choice for the treasure hunter.

MetalDetector.com has been a valuable business partner to Fisher Research Labs for many years. They continue to grow while still offering the best in customer service and after sale support, which is very important to FRL. We wish to congratulate them on 3 decades of business and stellar service to our mutual customers. Having known Michael and Daniel along with their parents for 2 of the 3 decades they have been in business, I have seen their company grow year in and year out without sacrificing what’s important to all of us …customer service before, during and after the sale. Their entire staffs knowledge of our product helps to ensure the customer gets the right detector for their needs regardless of what they might be. We look forward to our future relationship and continued success of MetalDetector.com and their entire staff.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting with the team at MetalDetector.com at their newly expanded facility in Southborough, MA. I have to say that I was impressed with their operation and knowledge of the Teknetics product line. When the Teknetics product line was recently re-launched, MetalDetector.com was one of the first partners we contacted. They have had a long standing relationship with the brand as one of the original Teknetics dealers in the country. We value long standing relationships and are excited to have them as a member of our team.

It's been an honor and privilege working with the fine folks at Detector Electronics for over 25 years. Having a family owned and run business ourselves, we know the "attention to detail" it takes to keep a business running smoothly with an emphasis on customer service. It's no surprise that Sondra and David's fine sons, Michael and Daniel have continued in their parents tradition of being exemplary businesspeople who take the time and care enough to really know their clientele. It's always been a pleasure working with you!

Customer Reviews

Dear Sondra, ...in addition to being the first metal detector company I found (after contacting several) which actually seemed to care about my order and which treated me like a valued customer, you also really worked hard from your end to make sure the purchase went through and the detector arrived at its destination on time. By the end I felt I was dealing with a friend rather than a faceless company on the net. Well done!

And, by the way, my 7 year old son Juanito found a nickel yesterday when he took his detector out for the first time! If things keep going this way the detector will have paid for itself within a few short decades! But seriously, he is really enjoying it and hoping to find his long-dreamed-of buried treasure some day.

Hello Folks,

Ordered 2 Garrett ACE 250's on 09-14-09 at noon… Received 09-15-09 at noon… You folks should be proud that you hold true to all you say, do and promise. It's very refreshing to work with a company that keeps the “old-world” values going, not too many people / companies out there that can even come close to what you provide.

Happy to do business with you,

Hello Dan,

Remember me? I bought my Tesoro Tiger Shark from you... It came just when you said it would, and works just as you told me it would.

Thanks for your help in sorting through the maze of detectors.

Dear Sondra,

1160 GRAM Meteorite! found 3 " underground. Don't ask where. One of many! As far as being excited I all most had a stroke. Here's a photo of one Meteorite I found on the surface, over 800 grams and a 447 gram one! The one in the middle is my first. The bar magnet has some small Iron meteorites on it.

Dear Detector Electronics,

I received the Tesoro Sand Shark today...and want to thank you. Tried it, love it, looking forward to many enjoyable hours with it. Knowing that it is a "rare" domestically made item gives me double pleasure! Also...doing business with pro's (such as yourselves) was also a pleasure I will tell others about! Forwarded a "glowing review" to you. Thanks again.

Dear Customer Service,

Just wanted to thank all involved in a recent shipment to me that was a gift for my grandkids. I ordered 2 detectors but for some reason only one was shipped. After calling your company you bent over backwards to get the second detector to me on time for giving to my grandchildren. I explained that we exchange gifts a week early so my children and their families can be in their homes Christmas morning since some travel distances are involved. The second detector arrived last Friday in time for our celebration last Saturday. --THANKYOU. I order quite a few things online and have experienced some terrible companies but you are the best.

Best regards and have a wonderful Holiday Season

Hi Guys,

I have just come in after spending an hour or at my local beach with my son, which is only a 5 minute walk from my home called Deception Bay. This is the first time i have ever used detector. The very first thing it detected in less than a minute was a two dollar coin, boy we were so excited! Not by the amount, but by the fact that on its maiden voyage it detected a coin. We then detected a ten cent piece. We can't wait to take it to a popular beach and I will practice more with the settings.

I would like to thank you for your prompt service. My detector arrived at my door In Brisbane Australia in less than a week. This is the first time I have used any service like this outside of Australia, but with this kind of service and ease of buying and your range of goods this will be the first of many transactions.

I just wanted to say thank you to Scott who made my recent purchase so pleasent! I am enjoying my Tesoro's and have found lots of cool stuff so far. Just waiting for that first gold find! Thanks agian for all the help that was provided in making my decision!

Hi Scott,

I was amazed at how fast I received my BOUNTY HUNTER. The order arrived in perfect condition, and in only three days after I placed the on line order. The four part series about selecting the right product was also appreciated and helped me to make the right decision for my purchase. You are truly a company that takes care of business and most importantly your customers. It is a pleasure doing business with you and I will gladly recommend you to anyone that wants to buy a metal detector. Thanks for the GREAT SERVICE.

Dear Customer Service,

I am a very happy camper. Yesterday I took my Garrett Ace 250 out for the first time to some local parks. My total find was about 150 coins. The detector works so well and so easily. It only took me about a half an hour before I new what every button did. I am also very salified with the support I got from Dan & Sondra.

PS I plan on buying my next detector from you.

Dear Sondra,

I purchased an Ace 250 from your site for my 7 year old son and now I am hooked! This is our first metal detector and the Ace does every thing it says it will. Thanks for the fast delivery and introducing my son and I to a great new hobby.

Coin shooting in Pensacola, Fl

Sondra,

I got the detector-my husband was thrilled.... Thank you so much. You and Daniel have been so helpful. I am a first time buyer and am feeling very lucky to have found your website. Daniel helped me to locate a really great detector and you have been extremely courteous and prompt in seeing my order through. I look forward using my new metal detector. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season....overall my experience ordering off of your website was convenient and customer service was great. Thanks again.

Dear Metaldetector.com

I just want to thank Sondra and the rest of the gang for my Minelab Explorer SE. It was a pleasure doing business with you and I will recommend your fine business to my other detecting buddies.
