Minelab Metal Detectors
Excalibur Metal Detector Series

Here at Kellyco, we know its summer when our friends from Nova Scotia Len and Shirl come through our showroom door. Metal detecting is a family hobby that began 6 years ago when Shirl hit upon an idea that would finally get Len out of his fishing boat (which was always on the water) to the beach where they both could enjoy a new hobby, metal detecting for treasure.

 Evidentially Shirl's solution definitely worked as both husband and wife now travel throughout Canada and migrate to Florida where they spend a season each year detecting and recovering many of our Florida beach treasures.  Both Len and Shirl are now retired and metal detecting, especially with their Minelab Detectors has become their main hobby.  Len uses a Minelab Sovereign XS while Shirl is a die hard Minelab Excalibur metal detector beach hunter!

What Shirl Has to Say About
Her Minelab Excalibur Metal Detector

"Len and I together built a treasure chest to store our finds.  I thought it would be small but the way it ended, we had a real large treasure chest 2 feet long, 1 foot wide, and 1 foot high, that's real big! Right now, because of the amount of coins we have put into our treasure chest, the chest is too heavy for us to lift and we only have it filled a few inches from the bottom!  Our average coin finds each year are in excess of 3,000!  Last year (2001), we found over 5,700 coins. The year before (2000), we found over 3,700 coins. Our average coin finds in Florida alone exceeds 3,000 each year.  Rings, and there are plenty of them, do not go into the treasure chest. Since all of my fingers have rings and spares (just to change the look), my grandchildren manage to capture quite a few, and I love them to have the rings they want since my Excalibur finds more rings everyday. 

"Except for the first detector I bought elsewhere, Len and I have purchased all of our detectors at Kellyco. JW of Kellyco (pictured at left) has been outstanding and patient with the advice he has given us. He has always been available to answer questions and advise us whenever we needed help.  When I wanted a detector to search our beaches and shallow water, Kellyco had the right detector for me.  I just love my Excalibur, it can't be beat for water and beach areas.  I'm very happy that I chose the right metal detector because it made everything easy for me. I knew the detector was operating correctly when I started finding all those coins, rings, and other treasures. Oh yes, about that large ring with 10 diamonds on one side and large single diamond on the other side is worth an easy $3,000, and the ring with 54 small diamonds appraised out at another $3,000."
