The dream of finding buried treasure is compelling, but the reality of metal detecting is that you mostly find worthless scraps—and even that takes time and dedication.
It may be the sort of unhurried, solitary activity you enjoy. As with birdwatching, even if you don’t come across a rarity, you will have spent some time in the great outdoors.
Or it may bore you to tears.
Ideally you’ll figure that out before dropping a not-insignificant sum on a metal detector of your own, so we recommend first trying to find a local club or store that will help you go on a trial hunt or two. If you catch the bug, you’ll know it. And at that point, we can say that the Nokta Simplex Ultra is the best metal detector for a newcomer to the sport.
