The Garrett ACE 400 for land detecting - reliable, effective, simple from day one. The Nokta Simplex Ultra if you want waterproofing and Bluetooth at the same price - the better choice if beaches or water hunting are part of the plan. The Minelab Vanquish 340 for multi-frequency technology at beginner pricing. All three are capable first machines that will hold your interest as skills develop. The choice between them comes down to: do you need waterproofing? See the full beginner collection.
