<p>[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 998669, member: 16269"]Buy the best you can afford. If you go cheap, you'll just get frustrated digging nails, pull tabs and bottlecaps. There are a couple of models in both the White's and Garret that run about $250 that a lot of newbies use and some pros have these models as their second machines. Also buy a good digging tool. Regular garden trowels will break right away. You'll need a heavy duty digger available on line or at metal detector shops. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, do your research in respect to the areas you want to hunt. Make sure there was something there in the past that would warrant spending a day or weekend hunting. Old parks, homesteads, etc. are good places to find coins, jewelry, old toys, artifacts and in general, good stuff. </p><p><br /></p><p>It does take some work to dig but after a few outings, you'll get used to it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
