looking for a great metal detector for gold?????

[yfzben700r]

I'm a gold prospector amd looking to expand my search for gold in creeks amd rivers . I know garrett has the AT gold pro but it is really any good or are their better one out there? That are better at location small gold flakes and deposits?

My vote for the best gold machine would be the Minelab GPX5000 as long as you don't need to go under water. I'd go with a Fisher CZ21 or Garrett Infinium LS for water. The best buy would be a Gold Bug 2....they're still a very good gold machine at any price.

They will detect small gold?

The 2,higher end machines im using the whites spectra v3i will find very small gold & has programs to do so aswell, same as the. Deus xp both have good frequencies & come with gold finding abilities

The GPX and Gold Bug would be the best for the tiniest pieces.

Ben, I would post your question over in the Metal Detecting for Gold
forum.

Also, here is a superb listing of the latest gold detecting machines, and written

Yes, If you're just wanting a gold machine, I'd pick the Gold Bug 2 Pro which comes with 2 coils. If you want one that will do better with coins and relics, the one with the I.D. screen would be a better choice.....again, get both coils. Just log onto any of our supporting vendor sites. They'll have the info there.

So will the GPX5000....and at greater depth. It just depends on what you have to spend and how serious you are about it.
