    I recently purchased a Garret Ace 250 detector. I bought it for a couple of reasons.
    1/ I knew I was going to be bored over the next few months while recuperating from surgery and using one ( this one is very light) would be physically easy and yet provide some exercise.
    2/ I live on 17 acres of pioneer land. The original homestead foundations are in my orchard and I'm constantly having artifacts ( granted mostly pottery and metal debris) come to the surface in the gardens or due to frost heave. Some interesting finds though. Bound to be the odd circa 1830 and up coin out there, since this plot of land was deeded by the Crown in 1831 and the original house built in 1832.
    3/ The particular detector I purchased has a decent search coil and can be used in up to 3 feet of water. Handy for use during my local dive club's environmental clean up days, where we remove garbage from local beaches and out in the water. I reckon it'll come in handy for the kids participating or for non diver adults.
