Any detectorists?

Planning on getting the young un a metal detector for Xmas, but don’t want to just get a cheap/rubbish one, and want to get one he will actually use and be able to find stuff. What are the things to look out for? I’m aware the coil size is important, but guess it’s like most things the more you spend the better it will be?

These are what I’ve been looking at…




Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance 👍🏻
 
Not really a detectorist but I lost my wedding ring down the allotment. Got a £50 detector from Amazon - deeawai was the brand. Found the wedding ring and loads of small screws etc. It got good reviews and I was happy. Have not used it since but it worked a treat.
 
A hobby I've been dying to get into for too long now. My mate just got a cracking Minelab .. he insists on just doing it alone though and not interested in a detecting buddy :ROFLMAO:

Love medieval coinage, would love to get out there and find me some hammered gold :love:
 
Tower Hill at the end of Church Lane in Middleton St George is a good place for detetectorists. The Romans crossed the Tees right there on the way north, and the locals are reputed to have buried their valuables rather than lose them. If all else fails there's a Lancaster close by that went straight down into a field at full throttle in WWII.
