Those are great! What do you want for em? I particularly like the iodine bottle. My uncle was a pharmacist and had a collection of those and I've thought they were awesome since I was a kid.

Can you recommend a good economical starter detector. There are some Tracker brand detectors on CL in my area. Are they any good? I'm just looking for something to play around with once in a while.

scott I used a bounty hunter lonestar they have bounty hunters with different names around that price I liked the lonestar at first and did real good there about 150 to 175. but after I got the good one garret a t pro there was know going back lol
 
I bought the Garrett Grand Master Hunter when it first came out and all the goodies with depth multiplier and hothead aftermarket coil etc. and I liked it, but if I bought another one I would go with something lighter now. I know there are so many awesome detectors oout now I would have a hard time deciding what to get. Many companies making great detectors now I would look at all the Garrett, Fisher, Minelab, Teknetics, Tesoro, Boutny Hunter man there's a few also I never heard of and then a bunch of crap too. One of my old hunting buddies that's still doing it swears by his Fisher F4 - he still owns my old GMH lol but it hasn't seen duty since he bought his first Fisher years ago.

fishers are top of the line theres some great mine labs/ technetics/ and whites they could go fro 600.00 to thousands. they have come a long way and yes some will wear your arm out with the weights of them. but if you want to tell what it most likely is before you dig the good detectors are a must:good2:

I have a White's 5000D that I bought back in '80. Top of the line back then. Found lots of coins but nothing earth shattering. I haven't used it in years and don't know if it even still works. The thing takes 14 AA batteries! I want a new detector for checking logs and the Garret is what everyone tells me to get. Gary
