![]() ![]() Too deep, some say.I want to start off by saying thanks to whoever is responsible for the creation and maintenance of this site, and to everyone who has posted relevant and useful information. The Vaquero is very popular, lightweight, and DEEP. If a screen/numbers/bells and whistles aren’t important to you, check out the Tesoro line. If you have more money than about $200 to spend on a metal detector, I’d check into the Fisher F5 or the AT Pro by Garrett-both are doing well out there. DIGGER27 has a whole slew of gold rings nabbed by his F2, and I found a 1944 Walking Liberty half dollar at a ball park. Although the Fisher F2 is considered a beginner detector, it can *definitely* find the good stuff. There’s a terribly big long thread about it here started by respected member DIGGER27, and it alone convinced me it was a great machine.Īfter I got mine and used it a while, I wrote my own glowing review for Yahoo. ![]() Myself, like many others, went with the Fisher F2. Many members here swear by them and would even pit them against the big boys! That detector will do fine for you until you get a little better! but you are right, the Fisher F2 is a really nice unit. Good luck, if you do decide to upgrade, the F2 will be an awesome machine for you! It's the long way around, but hey, it'll be worth it in the end! You could learn what a quarter rings up as on your machine and only hunt quarters until you have enough for your new machine. Save all the coins you find until you have enough and get an F2. Obviously they are not top of the line machines, but with some practice you will be able to learn your machines language and what it is telling you. I learned on a machine similar, and they DO find metal. You can also make a test garden, by burying coins and other metal items at varying depths, then swing over them and note the sounds and where they register on needle. Now you'll be able to detect other metal while ignoring iron targets. Then, if the machine has any type of discrimination knob, take a piece of iron, lay it on the ground, swing over the iron, as you do that, turn the discrimination knob up until you no longer hear that iron signal. Take several types of coins, gold ring, silver ring, etc, lay them on the ground.scan over them and note where the needle jumps to on each target. ![]()
