[QUOTE="TassieJack, post: 317, member: 61"] i started with a Garrett Ace 350, i still own it 19 months on but its now used by my 11 year old daughter. its a notch discriminating detector with no target id, even though the 350 works in high mineral areas like Kalgoorlie where a lot of cheap vlf machines wont work, i would say if you coin hunting buy a detector that has a target id over one that just has a notch id, gives you a lot more info having a target number. The fisher brand make a couple cheap machines, F2 and F4 which give target id. AT Pro been my machine of choice for just over a year, its a fantastic, easy to use machine for around $700 is a little expensive for a new user to buy. I have owned a Minelab Explorer, at the time only been detecting then a few months, i found the machine too complex for me and really spent more time mucking about with settings than swinging for coins.
