Any ideas on the right metal detector to get?

[barnhse]

Hi All,

I am looking for a metal detector for finding a cache of gold in some saddle bags, 2 to 4 feet down, clay dirt, and lots of overgrown bushes/trees.

Lot's of aluminum cans there, too...so I'd like to NOT dig those up one by one.

Any ideas on the right metal detector to get?

Thanks

One to consider is the White's MXT All Pro with the MAX MXT coil. The coil is 15 inches wide and will find down to 3-4 feet.

There is no metal detector on the market that will see through aluminum for gold. At 24" deep, you'll need a powerful VLF with a BIG coil, or a pulse induction unit - GOOD LUCK!

That's why it's still lost

Why buy an expensive detector when you can just make a new friend, WHO ALREADY OWNS AN EXPENSIVE DETECTOR?

Hey, for a small cut of the take, you could make a whole lot of new friends. Just make sure they submit a picture of the detector and level of experience on the new Friend Resume.
