- Primary Interest:
- Metal Detecting
I really don't know how I got along without one. The detector I have is very sensitive to small nails, but it also will find deep coins. Most of the nails that I find are usually in the side of the plug.
The Garrett probe will locate these small targets when they are in the side of the plug saving a lot of time, unnecessary digging, and aggravation. I would rather give up my detector than my Garrett probe.
By the way, I ran into an area where there must have been an old sawdust pile where coins were tossed out for kids to find. Most of the sawdust was no longer visible, just grass. I put the detector down, sat down, and let the probe find the rest of the coins.
