Hi and welcome Red. My advice to you would be to buy a fairly decent detector to start out with. Not the top of the line but not the bottom either. You can always turn around and sell it on Ebay if you find the hobby not what you expected. Find that first silver coin or gold ring and you will be hooked. I find hunting very relaxing. Its a new experience every time I hunt a different place. And the research is half the fun if you like history at all. Good luck, we will be waiting to hear about all your great finds.
