Hi vereRG. I am in PMB, so nice and closer if we want to organize a hunt. It is to bad you weren't here a month ago. I was selling my Ace 250 with the DD coil. Unfortunately, prices of detectors are going through the roof at the moment, so try get one fast. You could get a Fisher for the money you have in your budget. A pinpointer would be useful too, but they are getting expensive now
