Until I get over some deep silver I won't/can't say the Safari was worth the amount of money I spent on it. Thus far I've found everything else but silver coins & gold with the Safari. My little Tesoro Silver uMax, however, was the best money I ever spent on a detector (and I still have it and won't get rid of it).
The one thing I can say that I really like about the Safari is the ability to read the numerical values and hear the tones and thus make a better informed choice as to whether or not to dig the item. With the Silver uMax I have found my share of silver and gold items, but the Safari has yet to prove as much to me. But then again, I am now living in SW Washington state whereas before I lived in Southern California. So it just may be that where I now live the ratio of good targets to bad isn't quite as high as when I was in California. But I'm going to keep giving the Safari a fair shake. It just may prove to me yet to have been a good move from the Tesoro.
