[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 72727, member: 1695"] As I see it, economically speaking, the Ace punches well above its weight for the money outlayed for the unit (my case $250 with two coils), whilst there is no doubt the Fisher CZ3D is a very good detector, but there is no way I could justify owning such a unit for an extra $7-800. That's a shit lot of coins to find to find to make up for the original purchase price. Not all coins were near surface pickers, with many 5c,10c, 20 and 50c coins found down to 6-7" in the compacted layers below the top layer of loose bark. If my detector is picking up these small coins at depth, I'm sure it would have chimed on any $1 coins if they were there. Besides, most of the areas I detect are on CCTV, so I wouldn't think they'd appreciate me digging foot deep holes all over their playgrounds. ;) [/QUOTE]
