Description
The Nokta Legend 2 price is £999.95 with free UK delivery. The original Nokta Legend is £799.95, so the only question that matters is whether the upgrades are worth £200 on the ground you actually detect. If your permissions are full of nails, they probably are.

Nokta Legend 2 in Full Detail
The Nokta The Legend 2 is an advanced simultaneous multi-frequency metal detector designed for serious detectorists looking for enhanced precision, versatility and control. With multiple frequency options, an expanded 01 to 99 Target ID system and five dedicated search modes, The Legend 2 is built for detecting coins, relics, jewellery and small gold nuggets across a wide range of environments.
Simultaneous Multi-Frequency Technology
The Legend 2 offers Simultaneous Multi-Frequency technology alongside selectable single frequencies of 4 kHz, 10 kHz, 15 kHz, 20 kHz and 40 kHz. This provides flexibility for different targets and ground conditions, including mineralised gold fields.
Five Search Modes
The detector features Park, Field, Beach, Relic and Gold modes, making it suitable for a variety of detecting applications. The new Relic Mode is designed for challenging detecting conditions, while Gold Mode is suited to searching for small gold nuggets in mineralised ground.
Advanced Target Identification
The Legend 2 expands target identification to 99 Target IDs and provides seven tone options. Advanced settings include automatic, manual and tracking ground balance, 30 sensitivity levels, adjustable recovery speed, Notch Filter, frequency shift and noise cancellation.
Fully Waterproof & Lightweight
With an IP68 waterproof rating, The Legend 2 can be submerged to depths of up to 5 metres (16 ft). At just 1.2kg including the search coil, its lightweight and ergonomic design is suited to longer detecting sessions.
Extended Battery Life & Wireless Updates
The upgraded 6700mAh Lithium-Ion battery provides up to 33% more runtime than the previous model. The Legend 2 also supports both wired and wireless firmware updates, helping keep the detector up to date.

Who Should Not Buy One
If your ground is clean pasture or tidy parkland, the original Legend at £799.95 will find the same targets and you can put the £200 towards a second coil. The upgrades here are mostly about separating good signals from iron, so they repay you on messy sites and not much on clean ones.
If this is a first detector, it is more machine than you need. The Simplex ULTRA at £299.95 is the sensible starting point and nobody regrets owning one afterwards as a lightweight second detector.
If you want gold specifically rather than coins and relics, Gold mode here is capable but the Gold Kruzer at 61kHz is the dedicated tool for small nuggets.
Why Buy From Us
Nokta Legend 2 Questions, Answered
How much is The Legend 2?
£999.95. The original Legend is £799.95, so the question worth asking is whether the upgrades are worth £200 to you.
What actually changed from The Legend to The Legend 2?
Target ID expands from 01 to 60 up to 01 to 99, there are 15 custom user profiles, a new Relic mode, FerroCheck, wireless firmware updates, and the battery grows to 6,700mAh. The frequency range is the same.
What are the five search modes?
Park, Field, Beach, Relic and Gold. Relic is the new one, built for genuinely difficult ground, and Gold is for small nuggets in mineralised soil. Most British detectorists will live in Field and Relic.
What frequencies does it run?
Simultaneous multi frequency, plus selectable single frequencies of 4, 10, 15, 20 and 40kHz. Low for deep silver, high for small gold, and simultaneous for mixed ground where you cannot pick one.
What does FerroCheck do?
It gives you a second opinion on whether a doubtful target is ferrous. On a site full of nails that is the feature that saves your back, because the commonest wasted dig is iron that read as something better.
Is it waterproof?
IP68 and submersible to 5 metres, 16 feet. That covers beach work, wading and genuine underwater searching rather than just rain resistance.
How heavy is it and how long does it last?
1.2kg including the search coil, with a 6,700mAh battery and wireless firmware updates. The weight is the same as the original Legend despite the larger battery.
Which should I buy, this or the original Legend?
If you work difficult, iron heavy ground, the finer target ID, Relic mode and FerroCheck earn the £200. If you mostly work clean pasture and parks, the original Legend at £799.95 finds the same targets. Ring us and describe your permissions.
Is the Nokta Legend 2 worth the extra £200?
On iron heavy relic sites, yes. The finer 01 to 99 target ID, Relic mode and FerroCheck exist to stop you digging nails. On clean ground the original Legend performs the same, so the honest answer depends entirely on your permissions.
Can I use my existing Legend coils on the Legend 2?
Ring us before you buy a coil for it. Nokta coil compatibility across the Legend family is specific, and we would rather check it for your exact coil than have you order the wrong one.
What is the Relic mode actually for?
Ground with a lot of ferrous rubbish in it, which describes most old British farmyards, trackways and building sites. It is tuned to hold onto a good signal that sits next to iron rather than losing it.
How long does the battery really last?
Nokta quote about a third more runtime than the original Legend from the 6700 mAh cell. In practice that is a full day’s detecting with the backlight used sparingly.
Is the Nokta Legend 2 waterproof enough for the beach?
Yes. IP68 and submersible to 5 metres covers wet sand, wading and genuine underwater work. For scuba depth you want the PulseDive Scuba, which is rated to 60 metres.
