I notice many of those listed are also some of my favorite too.. At this time my Sovereigns is the ones I do the best with in most cases, the Shadow X 5 I have with 2 coils is used a lot more than the Sovereigns at this time because of the weight and can swing the coil faster and cover more area for checking out new areas. I just ordered a used Detch Vista X as I wanted to try one as others are saying they do so well with them. Another one I sold I should have kept was the Tejon as it was a great coin detector and was close to the X5 for me anyway.
I find that the best ones are those you don't have to try to get them set just right to do good, too many setting to adjust or misadjust as I rather be swinging the detector more than tryin go get the right setting. .
One thing I have learned is that the most expensive detectors don't find the best, but the ones you get to know and simple to use gets more of the gold and interesting finds. I learned a lot with my first detector in 1973 a whites Coinmaster 4 as there was no disc, so you had to seperate the targets by how they sound and how big the signals sound and didnt have so many pull tabs out there as there is now.
