    It's not what detector you are using as much as LOCATION,LOCATION,LOCATION,it has to be there to find it. Other than that the M.X.T. is the bomb!!!

    I have only heard good things about that White's Classic 5ID, a good machine, maybe just buy a new coil or two. The MXT is probably one of the most versatile machines out there as there are so many coils for every type of hunting and easy to use. I have an XLT, used it for several years, great machine. Good luck on your choice and HH, Mike

    As was said it isn't so much the detectors as where it is used. The MXT is a nice machine, but on the wrong location it won't find coins that aren't there.
