Hello
I've been interested in detecting but never actually committed to buying one.
Sadly through the passing of a family member I have inherited a Minelab SDC 2300.
I've only powered it on a tested it by passing various metals around the coil.
I know this is a gold machine but it also picks up every other metal that goes near the coil. I tested with silver, cheap rings, earrings, and coins.
What makes it special to gold if it picks up everything else?
Any metals it would not pick up ?
Not sure if I'll keep it. Is there a resale market for this model? Ideas on value?
Thanks for any info
