    GP3500 or SDC2300

    I'm no expert or seasoned but from what I've seen and heard in the field go with the SDC most of the guys I meet using the SDC say they are finding more colour on ground they have covered regularly with their 5000's.

    Teeth

    I did ask just for gold fillings, thought amalgam was a generic term for alloy fillings. Live and learn :)

    6 months alcohol free

    Not to jack the thread from RJ's efforts but I bought the season 1&2 of the Osborne's series, absolutely had me cracking up. Found out a few weeks ago Ozzy was off the wagon for most of it and completely plastered, doesn't seem as funny now.

    87 Ounce Nugget found Victoria

    Sometimes I think a lot of these big nuggets are found months or years before they make it public so they can clean up the smaller ones around it and wait for the price to go up.

    Minelab GPZ7000 information and questions

    Yep i'll second that. Stubby lids are the worst they put out a real good signal and don't seem to have carbon in them? I've pulled about $20 in coins over 2hrs on the dry sand, the good stuff is in the water in the gullies next to sand bars.

    Minelab GPZ7000 information and questions

    I think the GPZ's short comings are going to based purely on Price. I highly doubt anyone will be saying "my mate's GPZ missed this but my eureka didn't" BP- if you wait 2 weeks all the gold will be gone!!! Bahahahaha :D

    Minelab GPZ7000 information and questions

    Why can whites, garrett sell at half the price with similar tech? Well half the price of a new 5K anyway. IMO I think Minelab priced them self out of the Biggest consumer market in the world years ago.
