If money were no object...

[cheffer]

...what detector would you purchase?

 

Amazon Forum Fav 👍

A History of Mining on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska - Grab it through Amazon!

Depending on the area you hunt, Beach, Water or Field You need to get a detector that suits your environment for the proper operation. The skills will come with whatever the appropriate detector for that environment.

I already bought a deus...

 

[DannyB.]

CTX or Deus.. maybe? I'd love to have a good VLF beach machine for wet sand mostly.

 

[Charlie P. (NY)]

I guess a CTX3030 and all the available coil options.

[fyrffytr1]

1 of each!

 

[dsdigger]

Money no object? The top of each brand. If I have to pick either the CTX-3030 or the XP Deus.

 

[Loco-Digger]

If money was no object, I'd retire and buy a 300k motor coach and drive around to meet all the tnet members and dig on their turf. As for metal detectors I would buy a CTX 3030 to replace my 1280x Aquanaut and maybe get a AKA Signum MFD Pro deep search metal detector to do some CW relic hunting. My F75LTD2 and XP Deus would stay in my arsenal, I might buy the 9" coil for the Deus though.

Since I can't put as much time as I want in the hobby this year, the best choice for me would be to get the 2 or 3 detectors that are the best for my type of hunts. I don't want to buy the top of the line detector, if it takes me many seasons to understand and operate properly, jmho.

 

[SusanMN]

An Deus for land, an Excal for salt water. And a Makro, a White Sport and an AT Pro just so I could compare the three.

 

[DirtDiggerDaveinMD]

I would buy a factory and sell metal detectors to others.

Like this one?

The last time I checked it still had the Radio Shack batteries for the 70's in it too. LOL

As for modern detector.........probably the CTX 3030

 

[Icewing]

If money were no object, would you still hunt treasure?
That's a real question.

 

[Geobound]

Yep.

I do this for fun, not money.......and I have the bottle caps and ring pulls to prove it. LOL.....

 

[BigWaveDave]

I'd buy back my 350 from a buddy of mine, he never uses it.

 

[Cole55]

I have always been a whites guy. 16 years to be more exact. But I just got the XP deus.....and I LOVE IT!!!! so simple and yet so effective. I couldn't be happier

 

[MrMikeJackie]

Minelab GPX5000 and 4 orange cones.

 

[dsdigger]

Icewing, Time for new post!

 

[Ammoman]

Im happy with the detectors i have...if money were not an issue, i would instead purchase every piece of property i ever wanted to detect and have the biggest playground on earth! When it comes to permission, i've never said no to myself.
