[QUOTE="axtyr, post: 395374, member: 2282"] Jasonr. The SD2000 will serve you well if you combine it with an eight inch coil or smaller. I used one for about 18 months from 2014 onwards and found many tiny pieces, even some less than 0.1 of a gram. Personally I wouldn't pay more than $600.00 for an unmodified SD2000 and no more than $1000.00 for a fully modified one. You can even match the detector with the newer coils from Coiltek and Nugget Finder. I used a 14" Coiltek Elite Mono and it worked brilliantly, still finding those tiny pieces as well as the larger ones. The Gold Monster is getting some good reviews and if you check the price at Anaconda you might be able to purchase it for $999.00. The SDC2300 is an excellent machine with an eight inch coil but it is heavy. It has the bonus of being waterproof. I don't know anything about the X-Terra but some people use them for gold prospecting with good results. Regards Axtyr. [/QUOTE]
