Some help from my fellow crab people

Hey fellow Marylanders--

First of all let me say, I am a noob. I am VERY interested in getting into MD and want to solicit your thoughts on the best machine for relics, silver, and gold for between 200-400 bucks. Any custom setups are welcome too.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum. Personally , I have a Whites MXT. It is a "does it all" kind of machine . But it's a lot pricier
than you are looking for. A good all around machine is a Garrett Ace 150 or Ace 250. They fall in the price range but I can't speak for their gold finding capabilities. Where in Md. are you looking for the gold anyways ? Down by DC? Be careful around there because most all of the land is either private or State owned parkland. Those rangers don't take too kindly to people trying to gobble up the gold in those parts . There are places off of the beaten track though if you do your homework . Good luck.

I had a cheap metal detector when I was younger, but just got back into it again. I started about a month ago and did quite a bit of research before I got a detector. The ACE 250 seems like the best all around starter detector for the money. Check out kellyco detectors at the top of the page. I've been happy with this detector so far. I found a couple dollars in clad coins, some wheaties, a barber dime, and silver Washington, and some neat relics. I'm certainly a rookie too, but I think this is good advice.
