well, i buried some clad for pratice as advised the gti1500 was pretty close on the coins. i also found an extra penny, two nails and a pop can. my back yard is rather rocky, i see why i need the heavy digging tools also. i also learned not to brush away dirt with my fingers, glass. jim

Hi Jim. When I purchased my Whites XLT I received $150.00 credit towards accessories. So with that money I got the Lesche Digging tool.It's a pretty heavy duty digging tool with a serrated edge. I also got headphones, an 8" coin probe, which I also use to mark the center when I use my pinpointer. I got the padded gun style bag for everyday storage and the shockproof plastic case for airplane travel, and a loop cover to protect my loop. What I haven't bought yet is the handheld pinpointer and a Double D Loop if they make one for the XLT. I know they make one for the DFX/MXT, but not sure of the XLT.
