I realize this is a very subjective open question. I've wanted to get into treasure hunting for some time now and will primarily be scouring old school yards, beaches etc for jewelry/coins. Appreciate any help. Say around $300 if that's reasonable?
I'll second that. I love mine.lastleg said:Tesoro Silver U-Max with lifetime warranty.

Dirty Money said:By now, you can see that everybody has a different opinion. So what should you do? First, make a list of the type of detecting you would like to do (coin, relic, jewelry, prospecting, etc.). Then make a list of where you think you'll do your detecting. For example:
Dirty Money likes to hunt coins & relics. If some jewelry crops up fine, but he doesn't really spent a lot of time looking for it. Prospecting just isn't going to happen in his area. Why? Because, his detecting is done almost exclusively within his county. In fact, most of it is done in old city parks and lawns.
Once you have an idea of what and where, do some additional research on all the machines mentioned above. Then make a decision.
Oh...and once you've ordered your machine. Don't second guess yourself. Learn your machine inside and out. And above all, go out and have fun.
