MD-1010 Junior Metal Detector
The MD-1010 is a junior detector that carries adult features rather than a stripped-down circuit: target identification, discrimination, pinpoint and ground cancellation to suppress false signals from mineralised soil. It runs from two AA cells, reaches 10 cm on a US quarter and has a waterproof, interchangeable search coil, so a beach or grassland session is not cut short.
Key benefits
- Target identification with discrimination so junk metal can be ignored
- Ground cancellation circuitry suppresses false signals from mineralised soil
- 10 cm on a US quarter, with detection depth from 10 to 50 cm by target
- Waterproof, interchangeable search coil
- Two AA cells, replaceable anywhere
Problems it solves
- Toy detectors give false signals on mineralised or beach sand

- Parents buying a first detector a child will not outgrow immediately
- Families searching beaches and mineralised ground
- Retailers wanting a junior detector with real functions
Application scenarios
- Beach, yard and grassland searching
- Coin, relic and jewellery hunting with children

- Science education for ages from about six upward
Technical features
- Elimination mode suppresses tone and Target-ID for selected metals
- Pinpoint mode for the exact location of a buried object

Compared with other models in the range
The MD-1005 and MD-1006 are simpler children's units with sound indication. The MD-1010 adds target identification, ground cancellation and an interchangeable waterproof coil, which is why it stays useful once a child has learned the basics.
Use guide
- Fit two AA cells and extend the stem for the user
- Start in all-metal response, then set discrimination to ignore junk
- Use elimination mode to silence metals you do not want reported
- Switch to pinpoint mode to locate the target before digging
