I think you will like the Tesoro Lobo. It can make a good coin finder too.

Hi T-Parker. I"ve had a Tesoro Lobo Super Traq for 9 - 10 years and I absolutely love it. When gold nugget hunting, I set the machine to all metal and sensitivity to 9 and start swinging. When using it as a coin detector, I set the descriminate to just under the 4 (between 3 and 4, just below the 4) and set the sensitivity to 6, 7, or 8, depending on how much digging I want to do. I can find coins and gold rings with those settings. When relic hunting, I go all metal and set the sensitivity to about 5, but turn down the volume on your headphones so your eardrums don't get blasted out when you hit big iron. It's a good all-around machine and I hope you have years of fun and success with it.
Is it a deep detector ??? ???......==Jim==
