Default Which Detector do you use most?

I've been reading alot of posts about some great finds but I would like to know what type of detector was used on some of these hunts.Also what is the detector you use most and what do you hunt for mostly?
I just purchased a garrett 2000 detector right before x-mas and went out to an old school playground and found 4 quarters and 2 dimes.I have 2 machines, a Garrett GTA500, and a Garrett GTI2000. and love both of them.I look for mostly coins.

Garrett GTAX1250 and a White's Treasuremaster PL1000 Series 2.
Mostly use the Garrett and look for coins.

I use a Minelab X-70. Right now I hunt for coins, and whatever I can find. I would like to try my hand at relic hunting though, Beale.
