Abstract
A ground search metal detector with a pivotally mounted search coil that locates a stem connector at either of a storage position or an operational position. The operational position locates the connector adjacent to the central portion of the search coil to facilitate useful operational characteristics, and the storage position locates the connector adjacent to the perimeter edge to facilitate compact storage of the metal detector by pivoting the stem to overlap the search coil.
