What's a good pinpointer on the market for the money? I dig mainly coins and am just looking for a good quality pinpointer for not a whole lot of $$$.
Thanks
CJ

    I have a Pistol Probe made by DetectorPRO. It's a higher cost, but from what I've seen and experienced (check out some youtube videos), it's a great pinpointer.

    I agree with pcgs69. The Pistol Probe is great. You can buy a cheap pinpointer but you will pay in the end. They do not last long and most must be 'right on top' of the coin to sense it. I have the DX-1, machine mounted (and powered) also - depends on what I am doing as to which one I will use. I have always believed in buying quality - pay once, get the best, avoid frustration and further cost. Cheers, RickO

    This video was the deciding factor for me to get a Pistol Probe

    Good video (major hole he dug) and shows the capability of the Pistol Probe. Most people do not realize the PP is a pulse induction unit and that gives it the edge on depth over all other probes. Cheers, RickO
