[QUOTE="Aslanmia, post: 445727, member: 11753"]Terry, don't fall into the same trap I did... I bought a middle of the line detector (about $600) and really should have saved up for a decent one ($1500). I thought I was being smart by avoiding the cheap ones ($200) altogether, but now that I've been at it for awhile I know that if I really want to find the good stuff I'll need to upgrade. Presently I'm using a Minelab, and it's a good machine and brandname, but I agree with Eduard when he recommends a Garrett. The newer machines can identify a target by shape and size and that knowledge is INVALUABLE in the field since traditionally you tend to dig a lot of junk. Plus, you have to respect a man like Charles Garrett who uses and tests his own products and has written many, many books on the subject of metal detecting. My NEW machine will be a Garrett! ;)[/QUOTE]
