I have a treasure hunting buddy that peaked my interest in metal detecting and I am considering purchasing a decent detector this spring. I plan to work beaches, ruin sites, etc, not lakes or wet spots. I would like something that can distinguish molecular weights/metal types. I am confused by the ranges in price. My friend recommended Minelab, and I've searched their models. I guess my basic question is this: What am I getting when going from a $500 detector to a $1200 one? Is it depth sesitivity? Ability to distinguish gold and other precious metals from non-valuable ones? THanks for any help members can provide. I am a newby, so sorry if my question seems lame. I want a detector that can distinguish precious metals from ferrous and aluminum, and I don't want to break the bank.

Brian
