Hi everyone!

Which one detector is the best for finding deep silver coins? I'm interested in finding high conductivity coins (like a roman denarius and other medium/big coins). I'm NOT interested in finding low conductivity coins (like a hammered cut quarter). Areas: non trashy and medium-trashy areas.

1. Makro Racer 2
2. Teknetics Omega 8500
3. Teknetics T2 Classic

My budget is up to 700-900$.

PS. Sorry for my english

T2 is probably the fastest one (in this comparision), but Omega 8500 works on 7,81 kHz. Isn't that frequency better for deep silver coins?

Racer 2 from everything I've read and the videos I've watch will sniff out good targets that the T2/F75 can't in really trash ground. But since you're not hunting really trashy areas I'd go with the T2 because it's more comfortable to swing.

Hi Konrad,
I am using all of them, so the Makro Racer is IMHO the best choice for very deep coins but the Omega 8500 is more accuracy in Target Separation. The T2 / F75 and also the Omega are better all around machines of better Quality than a Makro Detector. Nevertheless all of these machines are excellent Coin Shooters.
