I'm a new coin and artefact targetter
I bought a $25 GP Pointer from eBay and I'm impressed with its performance (as far as a novice can be...).
It detects from a distance of about 60mm with the response ramping up reasonably linearly until the target touches the tip of the pointer.
I've dropped my GP Pointer dozens of times, I use it as a digging tool generally abuse it and it's going strong.
The name brand units seem to be $200.
Am I missing out on anything by using this cheap pointer?
