Detectors by hunting style

The fastest route through 3,000+ products is knowing what you hunt. First machine? Start with beginner and intermediate detectors or real kids metal detectors for the youngest crew. Chasing nuggets and fine gold? The gold detectors collection covers VLF and pulse induction machines. Beach and river hunters should shop waterproof metal detectors, relic and Civil War diggers belong in relic metal detectors, and schools, venues, and event staff will find handheld wands and walk-through units under security metal detectors.

Shop by brand

We are an authorized US dealer for every brand we carry, so warranties are full and support is real. Browse Garrett, Minelab, Nokta, XP, and Fisher to compare lineups side by side, from entry-level turn-on-and-go machines to flagship simultaneous multi-frequency detectors.

Most-shopped model pages

Know what you're after? Jump straight to the pages detectorists visit most: the Minelab Manticore, Equinox 900, and Vanquish 540, the Nokta Legend and Simplex Ultra, the Garrett ACE 300 and Vortex VX9, and the XP Deus II.

Gold prospecting, start to finish

Detecting is one way to find gold; washing gravel is the other. The gold prospecting equipment collection carries pans, sluices, classifiers, and concentrating tools for both, and pairs naturally with a dedicated machine from the gold detectors page.

The gear around the detector

The add-ons that get used every single hunt: a pinpointer to cut recovery time, the right search coil for your ground, headphones for quiet parks and noisy beaches, and diggers and picks that survive real digging. When the weather wins, the books and reference library keeps the season moving.

Paying less for the same gear

Before paying full price, check the metal detector deals page, the clearance rack, and open box detectors. Active and retired US military can save on select Minelab machines through the military discount program.
