Each time you hear the beep it could be ‘the big one’. Cold fingers, slippery sun lotion, water action, and hot sweaty sports can lead to objects working loose or falling from pockets. Scanning the garden also gives you a great opportunity to understand your detector properly.
A pinpointer also means you don’t need to shove a trowel into the ground. Once a target is roughly located, use a pinpointer to find out exactly where it is. Carrying a detector for hours can tire you out before you’re ready to head home.
It’s possible to buy ‘metal-detecting’ trowels that are longer and thinner but I’ve never bought one. Best places to search on a beach are the towel line where beachgoers drop their belongings and dips of sand close to the waterline or near a sandbar. Wet sand is mixed with ‘black sand’ and black sand is mixed with iron and other minerals that can trick your detector into springing a signal. There’s something very soothing about combining wave action with the swing of your detector – plus piles of treasure that people leave behind mean you’re likely to find something. There’s gold in them there hills, rivers, beaches, and deserts but to stand the best chance of finding gold a specialist gold detector pays dividends.
I am looking for Gold flakes/small nuggets in a very mineralized iron ore area and quartz veins also to search in shallow streams. When considering your first machine, pay close attention to how much it weighs, especially if you plan on hunting for several hours at a time.

The Garret Ace 300 is recommended everywhere as ‘hands-down’, one of the best beginner metal detectors. Highly mineralized soils tend to give out lots of signals that metal detectors love to pick up. This is a great feature that will save you time and aggravation. Turn it up, and the detector will alert you to everything – sometimes even minerals in the soil. Especially as it has the coveted autotrac ground balance – more on that later.

The standard 8-inch coil is an all-purpose coil that performs well across the board and is best for a beginner.
You can also use the same machine for all of your hunting as opposed to the PI where you should only really use it for beach hunting. The benefit to using a multi-frequency detector in salt water is that you can discriminate out unwanted targets.
