I own a Cortez, my buddy has a Cz21, we hunt at least twice a week, old parks, farm houses,turn of century school yards. The Cortez, using a 5 inch and stock coil will hold its own against the Cz when it comes to clad coins.When it comes to old deep silver, Liberty's, mercs., indian heads, V nickles, shield nickels, its not even close. Over the last 2 years I havent found, but one indian head, compared to his, at least 6. no old nickles,just one buffalo, at 2 inches,to his maybe 4. I passed over a seated 1850 dime, my newbe friend who has not detected but once, found the dime I passed over ,with my own CZ 21, I let borrow. I was upset. Use the CZ21 on land ya cant go wrong. The Cortez is dead on accurate on what it finds,but it aint finding a lot. Take a silver quarter, place a small piece of foil over it. most id machines regester foil, not the CZ, you get the high tone,and the quarter.
