Hello all,
I started checking out this forum about a week ago and have been addicted ever since, checking finds, and all that fun stuff. In the same period, I have also been looking at purchasing my first detector, since we live in a nice historical area without illegal hunting places like battle grounds, and it looks like so much fun! But here is the thing, I am 15, and don't make a lot of money, so I am a bit on the cheap side So I have been looking at things like the F2 and Ace 250, and I like the fisher so far. However, I saw somebody selling a Whites Prizm II, for $100, or best offer right in my town, and was not sure if this was a good deal or not, or if the detectors any good. I know my thing would be to find coins and relics, but mostly coins, so if that helps anything then that's great. I have collected different coins, but have no experience what so ever with detecting. So I suppose my question would be is: Should I save up and go for the fisher or ace, or go for the whites prizm? Also, I could use any experience on whoever has used these, and their thoughts, or is there something else better that you would suggest? I think I am going to check the condition of the prizm in the next week, apparently its good, but no promises.
Thanks in advance, this board has already brought me into the idea of detecting, and great ideas!
