1- What is the difference in the properties between the metal detector (Stinger 2 and plus star 2 ) ? and why ?
Don't know. Guess I'm not much an an "expert".
2- And what do you advise me the best metal detector for the detection of its treasures?
The one that works best for you.
3- What is the most successful metal detector now ?​
Who cares? If there is one, it's specific to the user anyway. In other words, use what works for you. Ultimately you are the expert here.

You need to be a little more specific on what you are looking for. What type of detecting are you going to be doing? Some machines work better than others based on what you are hunting for. One machine may work great for relics while another machine will work better for coins. Also some machines work better in highly mineralized soil than others. Some machines will work fine on beaches while others won't. Do you see where I am going? All manufacturers have great machines and before you buy you will want to know how you are going to use your machine. Once you let us know what you are mainly hunting for then I am sure several people will jump in and give you some great advice. And welcome to the forum.

Thank you, professor treasurehound, always serve the members, I will look for treasures in the desert of the Arabian Peninsula (Saudi Arabia), and the earth, there is composed of sedimentary rocks and desert, and there are also mountainous areas composed of igneous and metamorphic in general, and in some areas there are sand dunes, and very rare the existence of forest areas, the most important thing E I'm looking for metal detector is the most depth in the soil dry a normal thickness ranges between (2.5-3 m), and be experienced by members and experts

I would say he's looking for Gold Nuggets. Turn on the sales pitch and sell him a top of the line Minelab. First check with post office to see if items can be shipped there. Some countries are off limit's right now.

Thank you for attention to the themes and I hope to be a guest lightly upon you,
I'm looking for the best metal detector to infer the treasures buried in the archeological sites, to suit the soil in Saudi Arabia and explore the depths of the biggest, I wish only the advice of the appropriate type of detector

Archeological sites?

We're not allowed to dig in known sites here in the US. If you are going to detect dunes and places where rocks shift and such, maybe you want a 2 box unit.

What kind of archeological stuff you looking to dig for? Lost cities, tombs, caches?

2.5 to 3 M rules out a lot of detectors. A two box unit would go that deep for larger items, but not single coins. A high end PI unit with a blanket coil would go that deep. A Whites Sierra Madre/ULA-3 with the 15" coil will go down 5 feet. Beyond this your talking a GPR with it's hard to understand readings.

The two box looks like your best bet if there isn't to much salt in that sand.

I'd strongly suggest a detector sensitive to iron, Ali. Lots of meteorites over there, and they have excellent value. Look for glossy black coverings on VERY heavy rocks.
