Dear Les and Carol,

You have a winner with your new Treasure Mate! I have used it prospecting in cracks and found a real nice 17.5 grain nugget. I have used it coin shooting and found that it not only recovers coins accurately, but it is the deepest pinpointer I have ever used.

As a former dealer, I have had the opportunity to try virtually every pinpointer on the market. Many of them work well, but none of them performs as well as the NEW Treasure Mate. I used one pinpointer that vibrates for coin hunting, before I got your Treasure Mate. That pinpointer worked OK, but it was not even close to the depth I achieved with your Treasure Mate. I also owned a unit that was very sensitive to gold nuggets. This unit had cords, rings that slipped up and down a pole (made out of a PVC pipe) and all kinds of other things that just made it hard to use. The quality of this PVC wonder was very poor in my opinion. This is another area where your Treasure Mate shines. This is one of the best quality made units I have seen. You can tell that by the great warranty (Lifetime) that you offer!

I wish you guys the greatest success with this wonderful product!

Regards, Tom Ashworth
