Garret has always ben my favorite,but you should research and shop around a bit.If you can afford it the top of the line(garret 2500) is an awsome and simple to use detector.One featcher is a distictive sound for coins and the ability to set it so if you want you can find nothing exept say quarters or dimes.I owned one and found many great finds.But i sold it last year to a friend.He figgered it would help him to find more of the good stuff than me.LOL but expirence and patiance are a big part of detecting( i still beat him everytime with my fisher cz20) good luck and happy hunting !!!

I felt better after reading your answers. I went and pruchased a Barrett Ace250 Pro this afternoon. I want to make sure I like this before I spend more money. I just got back from serving overseas in the military and we use metal detectors every day over there for various purposes. So I kind of got interested and want to try it out as a hobby. We will see what happens. Now I just need to find some some spots to try out. Thank you so much. I will be sure to tell you guys how I make out. Who knows!! I may find Jimmy Hoffa if he has change in his pocket. LOL
