I found this one. Is it good?

Also, what else would I need besides a detector?

Same one, 152.95 including shipping and he throws in the headphones and the visor.

I've known BiggFredd for years, you can ask him any questions about it at "sales at BiggFredd.com". Tell him bobby131313 sent you.

if you are wanting to go into the water then I would get a water proof detector

I live in florida and that is the only way to go. Most beaches are cleaned by hobbiests finding coins but imagine only 10 percent actually go into the water off shore. Have you ever lost a ring wearing it in water?
