[QUOTE="76drew76, post: 32485, member: 1508"] Hi Guys, Sorry to ask yet another 'which detector question' but looking at all the different models out there you can see why the question is asked so frequently. I am looking to purchase my first detector and was hoping to get something for around the $600 mark for finding coins, relics and even gold. The areas that I have looked at as possible candidates range from the beach (just over an hr away), Old homesteads, Army camps, Parks, Old hospitals and school sites and also areas that have been known to produce gold. The areas of interest for me are surrounded in Iron Ore and Magnetite so I would be needing a detector that would make it a bit easier to locate finds in this ground as I have read that it can be difficult with some detectors on the market. I have been looking at a few different brands but would like to hear what the more experienced people out there think would be the best candidate. Do I also need more than one coil? What other accessories am I going to need to make things easier and more enjoyable? Any help you guys could give me would be a great help. Cheers...... Andrew [/QUOTE]
