Addnz Gold Metal Detector

Whites Coinmaster

The secret to the best metal detectors ever made is often overlooked by those searching to buy those elusive best metal detectors. The true secret is really to find a detector that you are comfortable with, thus you will be more likely to learn the machine and be able to use it proficiently.

Being comfortable means different things to each metal detector user. To some, best metal detectors indicate those of a certain brand like the more popular White's, Garrett, Tesoro and other manufacturers. To others, it is the physical feel and balance of a metal detector. It can also be a correlation to what the metal detector cost. Each of these will be explained below.

Probably the most recognized best metal detectors factor is how well the machine performs in the field, especially in terms of how deep it will detect. Typically, a comparison of major brands per price range will show little difference in capability. On occasion, I have found pronounced differences between two metal detectors of the same brand and model!

Some users, especially those that have been metal detecting for many years, classify the best metal detectors as those of a specific brand or brands. Like myself, I prefer some of the older models because I have had good luck with them in the past. This is all individual preference based on lengthy use and becoming familiar with certain machines. Each metal detector manufacturer uses their own circuit design, thus the audible and visual response to targets can vary between brands. This has been a factor in my best metal detectors decisions, especially when it comes to the tones emitted. Some brands just don't sound pleasing to my ears, and I would miss targets because of it.

An important factor in finding the best metal detectors is to find one that physically feels good in your hands. One with a good balance allows you to swing it all day long without getting tired. The metal detectors of today have come a long way in this aspect. Most of the newer detectors are balanced really well. If you find an older, heavier detector that you must use, consider converting it to a hip mount configuration so you can relieve the problem of swinging a heavy weight. I converted a White's Coinmaster 6000D Series 2 to hip mount and loved it! It was one of my best metal detectors for many years.

How complex a metal detector is can play a role in finding the best metal detectors to buy. Some people want a simple machine to just turn on and hunt and may be intimidated by a bunch of knobs, controls and programming. Many modern metal detectors of today are computer controlled, complex devices but most are made so even the new user can turn them on and go. The extra features are there in case you want to grow with the complexity of your detector as you gain more experience. With that said, it is advisable to not let this factor decide your best metal detectors.

The type of hunting you will be doing will play a role in discovering your best metal detectors. You may find that one brand is better for you to find old coins while another will be better at finding rings on the beach. For instance, some treasure hunters prefer Minelab metal detectors while searching for gold nuggets and switch over to Nautilus metal detectors when looking for Civil War relics. Some manufactures do target specific niches with their metal detector designs. Finding the best metal detectors for each of your treasure hunting interests may mean a different brand for each.

The actual cost can be of importance to some people when formulating their best metal detectors decisions. It is like the saying of you get what you pay for. Buying the top of the line metal detector made by a manufacturer may be all it takes to find your favorite. This can be true in some cases but the top machine from one company may not hold a candle to a mid-range model from another. Also, some of the best metal detectors I have used have been older models that are not even made anymore.

As you can see, there are many things to consider when finding the best metal detectors. It will vary from person to person and can only be found through use. A user may swear by one but it may not be right for you. You may need to use several over a period of time to find your best metal detectors but don't give up. With practice in the field, you will find them!
