Hello,

I'm looking for a metal detector that can be suitable for meteorite hunting
and able to detect chondrites as well as iron rich meteorites. I've already
looked at several types, but it's difficult for me to get a clear idea about
it, as I do not wish to invest too much in this equipment...
I've seen the following type, maybe someone has tried it already and can
tell me if it's good or not:

- Allround metal detector
weight: 1,1 kg
total length: 57 - 88 cm
disc diameter: 17 cm
power: 6 x 1,5 V R6
headphones plug: 3,5 mm
detection down to 60 cm deep for big itms and down to 12 cm deep for coins
wiring: interior

If anyone gets a metal detector that is suitable for my need and in good
condition, either for sale or for trade, you can contact me via my private
e-mail.

Thanks in advance for your help!
