[QUOTE="maxwell4, post: 506125, member: 4283"] Hi LJay There is a lot of info on the forum on this subject but you need to search to find it and also start a seperate thread for your post if you want people to reply. A lot depends on how much you are willing to spend and how fit you are. If you dont want to be digging big holes you go for a 2300 if you want to chase bigger gold and dig bigger holes the Zed or the 5,000 seem to be the go. All are expensive and it is not easy finding gold, many people pay big dollars for the equipment and rarely use it as they get dissolutioned when unable to find the gold. I myself have a 2300, it finds small gold (lots of junk) but you generally dont dig deep holes. I am not fit enough to be digging big holes but love getting out in the fresh air and bush. Also it is a long way from Mornington to decent gold bearing ground that is if you are after gold. If you are looking at coin shooting etc you need to make that clear as it is a whole new ball game as far as which detector to buy. Good luck,hope this helps. Cheers Bob [/QUOTE]
