The detector has a scale with "Iron...Gold...Silver" but the problem is that it registers metal as gold and silver when it isn't. It's disappointing when the detector register gold and you dig it up and find it's another bottle top. If Garrett don't have the technology to distinguish among various types of metal, they shouldn't bother putting the scale on the display. The first thing I noticed was how loud the detector is and that there is no volume control, so you may need to purchase headphones with a separate volume control. All in all, it's not as good as you might assume
Save your money and get a cheap £20 one as it will do just the same. On alot of website reviews saying this machine is the bees knees i am convinced that they are false.
