Metal Detector
Ok treasure hunters, I'm getting the wants for a good metal detector.
Let's hear about what you like and why.

Don,

It depends on what you want to use it for. It makes a difference. If you just want one that goes beep when you find a object and don't worry about ground balancing discriminated between ferrous and none ferrous metals or use it in water then any of the low end on the market will work.

RE: Metal Detector
I dont know what is out there anymore Don. I got 3000 about 4-5 years ago and haven't followed their new updates.
I dug a hole about 2-1/2 feet deep and found a old .44 case LOL
Found a nice 1/2 oz nugget and small stuff.
The nuggets are far and few, but you will pick up fine in Quartz.
The old gold bugs are good as well as Fishers. Do a Google for metal detectors and study up on them. But look for one with good ground rejection and discrimination. Then there are the different coils.

I like metal detectors and have some opinions. Let's visit before you buy one.
