An In-line pin-pointer that attaches to your detector ($160+) or, a waterproof Vibraprobe would be my second choice (much less).

As far as a digger, a Lesch would be a good choice (around $40)

Happy birthday!

thanks watercolour

thats the digger iwas thinking of but i dont think the first pinpointer is an option as i would probably notice if my lovely wife took that much out of my pocket ;D

thanks for the happy birthday too!

Yes, for dependability, toughness and its waterproof, Vibraprobe. They are still kinda pricey, around 100 bucks but worth it.....

Keep safe...

Here is a link to Sunray ... http://www.sunraydetector.com/

I don't think they make an In Line Probe for your machine ... However you can email Ralph & find out for sure ...

I am spoiled this is what I use and they are by far the best ...

Good Luck & Boun Compleanno ~ Nick

A GT and a Sunray S-1; unbeatable!
Except by maybe my GT and Sunray. ;D

Never had a need for one. US people use it as they dig little holes with sharp knifes & might nick there coins. I use a spade. Why would you need to waste your money?

We go throu spades pretty quick. So get a good one but light weight. Simple lesson (you best learn from me who has got it wrong in the past) is ALWAYS dig back from where you think the target is. Many times coins are on edge & give a signal in front of where they are. You are bound to get it wrong when you find your best coin (SODS LAWS)
