Just thought I would pass on my findings regarding the Garrett Ace 150

No I haven't actually found gold with it, but I have tried it out on small gold 0.1 - 1 gram with surprising results

Has anyone else noticed this with the Ace series?

I had an F2 (which I miss) that would not detect such small pieces & when comparing it with my AT Pro there appears to be little difference in the sensitivity to the gold

For a cheap introductory metal detector it sure has its place in the field IMO - what do you think?
