The ace 250 is a decent beginner coin shooter and it will likely detect gold too. however, the gold pieces arent going to be deep or small...and most nuggets you'll run into are deep and small. The ace 250 won't handle well in the mineralized ground so it cant penetrate deep enough to find the small nuggets. IF you're planning a big trip to AZ definitely upgrade bc a lot of other folks detected AZ with more accurate equipment.

But if the ace250 is all you got and AZ gold fields are around the corner it would be worth the experience.

i have a ace250 garrett,is it a gold finding md. all i could afford at time. would like to go out in az. try my luck

The garrett scorpion is a great nugget detector. The ace250 is great for everything else. Use your ace250 for treasure hunting and get into prospecting with the idea of getting the scorpion some time soon and when you do get it, you will be very satisfied. Ace 250 is a great treasure hunting detector.
