My kids gave me a kind of low end machine several years ago. It is a model 505 pioneer bounty hunter. I took it out today to an old abandoned park. I found a lot of pop tops and a silver quarter (1956) and 4 pennies, 1 wheat, and a cool old matchbox car. I really like the idea of a test garden. I set one up before I went out. It really works, and the machine is nit bad. By tuning it a little, it found less junk. I really did not have to travel much to find stuff. A 40 foot by 50 foot area is all I searched. This machine is better than I expected. Dan
