Perfect for Family Adventures

I was pleasantly surprised by this detector package. Just insert the 2 included 9 volt batteries, turn it on - and it just works. Indicators on the main display show indicators for iron (nails) and markers for likely penny, nickel, dime, quarter, and silver (and other precious metals). The detector beeps and gives an estimated depth of the find (based on a coin size I believe). You can filter out parts of the scan (so you only detect silver / gold and ignore nails). This would be useful if you were looking for a dropped earring.

Interesting outdoor experiences.

This detector kit includes everything you need to get started out hunting treasure. You get the detector, headphones, a shovel, and even a nice carrying case to transport to and from the field. I found this detector to be a great entry level detector with features other detectors don't have. It's easier than most to assemble and adjust the length for comfortable swinging and the waterproof coil means you don't have to worry if it gets wet in the shallow water or puddles on a beach. The display has a row of icons across the top to help identify targets, a digital target number display that's also very helpful, and even a depth level indicator to indicate how deep you can expect the target to be.
