[QUOTE="Diggerdude, post: 6688, member: 308"] If you can scrape up $1200-$1500 I would definatley get a Minelab SD2100 or 2200. They are both great for a beginner and will still find gold. If you need something cheaper I would look at a Garrett infinium it is a PI (pulse induction) detector and more suited to finding gold over there than the AT pro which is more of a coin detector. I have a spare Infinium sitting around as we have 2 GPX 5000s and the infinium doesn't get used anymore. You can have it for $700, but would recommend the Minelabs if you have the extra cash. I would just practice panning rather than getting a spiral wheel as you will need to learn eventually. DD [/QUOTE]
