if the average depth of a find is only 6 inchs why spend big $$$$ on a high end detector what are the advantages.
treasurehound said:If you are only intersted in finding clad or newer coins then you will be very happy with a lower end machine as most won't be deeper than 6". BUT if you are like most people and want to find older coins and relics then you are going to need a machine that will reach those depths. I don't know what you mean my big $$$ but $400 and up will get you a very nice deep finding machine. I have found Indian Head pennies 10" and deeper that the cheaper machines would never have found. A lot of people start out by getting a lower end machine then invest in a better machine as they get more experienced in hunting.
