Nokta Score and Double Score Multi-Frequency Waterproof Metal Detectors
The Nokta Score and Nokta Double Score give you simultaneous multi-frequency (SMF) performance in simple, turn-on-and-go detectors. Both are fully waterproof to 16 ft, run Multi or 15 kHz, and come with the same 12" x 9" waterproof DD coil, so they handle parks, fields, wet salt beaches and shallow water without complicated menus. Choose your model above.
- Nokta Score ($329): the simplest way into multi-frequency. Pick a mode and go.
- Nokta Double Score ($349): adds ground balance, an iron filter, notch, recovery speed, two custom profiles, more sensitivity levels and a carbon fiber upper shaft.

Bart's Take: The Score and Double Score are the cheapest way I know to get real simultaneous multi-frequency in a waterproof detector. That matters most at the beach. Salt-wet sand is where single-frequency budget machines struggle and multi-frequency runs smooth. For most people, the extra $20 for the Double Score is worth it for the ground balance and iron filter. If you want more adjustments, two coils and wireless headphones in the box, step up to the Triple Score Pro Pack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the Score and Double Score good at the beach?
Yes. Simultaneous multi-frequency is the main reason to choose them over single-frequency detectors in this price range. Use Beach mode on wet salt sand, and both are waterproof to 16 ft for wading and shallow water.
What's the difference between the Score and the Double Score?
Both use the same multi-frequency technology and coil. The Double Score adds ground balance, recovery speed, iron filter, notch, two custom profiles, more sensitivity levels and a carbon fiber upper shaft. See the comparison table above.
Should I get the Double Score or the Triple Score Pro Pack?
Get the Double Score for simple, affordable multi-frequency with the key adjustments. Step up to the Triple Score Pro Pack if you want a Relic mode, more tone and audio adjustments, a second smaller coil and wireless headphones included.
Do they come with headphones?
No. Both work with Bluetooth headphones. Bluetooth does not work underwater, so ask Bart about waterproof headphone options if you plan to submerge the detector.
Are they good for beginners?
Yes. Pick a search mode and start detecting. The extra adjustments are there when you're ready to use them.
Can I make payments?
Yes. Shop Pay Installments is available at checkout.
