[QUOTE="Soulweaver, post: 452481, member: 13930"] This is the problem with asking questions on forums, doesn't help you decide anymore as everyone has pro's and con's for both :D I have got the 4500 for 3 days, think that will really help decide for me. I don't mind digging holes, I often dig iron as I am a author and historian of Australian history, so I am also collecting stuff just for my own interest with no real value. I did donate some things to creswick meusem as well they are planning a 'history of gold' display for January I think the lady said. One thing I have noticed a lot when digging in gold fields is that on targets where I actually found gold, there is also usually a hole that looks like a ant hole. When that whole is bigger like 1.5cm across the target is junk, but when the hole is small, like straw size, target is often gold. Has anyone else come across these holes while digging? I started taking photos to see if there is anything behind it. [/QUOTE]
