For the ease of setting up a huge array of gold detector based products, besides categorizing them based on the levels at which they perform e.g. beginner, intermediate, advanced, deep seeking and professional etc. there is one more way. This list is according to the usage requirements of the buyer whether they would prefer to have one for gold nuggets only, one for coins and relics upto the most latest type showing data in 3D outputs. Take a look at the list to determine what are the six categories of gold detectors based on their mode of utility.   

1.  Gold Detectors For Gold Nuggets

The gold nuggets are small metallic objects which can widely vary in shape and form as well as weight but can be considered the smallest detectable objects by gold detectors. The detectors which are equipped for gold nuggets are usually smaller in size and lighter in weight, with a small coil which is able to detect minute objects underground. The depth is very low and price point is also very basic. 

1.  Gold Detectors For Coins and Relics

The gold detectors specializing in coins and relics are comparitively more heavier and have intermediate sized coils so they can detect bigger objects easily. That is the reason why some of them ignore very small objects. The depth is not very low because the coil size is increased and they are relatively more pricier than gold detectors for nuggets. 

1.  Gold Detectors For Deep Seeking Purposes

When the buyers require something which can only be looked into with more advanced equipment having high depth possibilities, then deep seeking purposes are conveyed and such detectors are recommended. They are very heavy and a single person cannot carry it themselves. The depth is increased and many vital functions like ground balance, digital display etc. is present. 

1.  Multipurpose Gold Detectors 

The gold detectors which are equipped to find small to large objects under varying depths all at the same time are called multipurpose detectors. They have several options to switch to and from in different cases as well as various interchangeable hardware attachment options are also present. 

1.  Waterproof or Underwater Gold Detectors

The detectors which are specially designed to work in extreme weather conditions like when it is raining outside or when the users would like to check the presence of gold items under the surface of water. These type of detectors come in three variation, one the most basic form is when only the coil is waterproofed. The second one is where the hole detector including the coil, shaft and control unit is made waterproof or also known as weather proof. Last is the one which can be completely immersed below the water and it will not damage the machine or its detection functionality, these are underwater gold detectors.

1.  3D Professional Gold Detectors

The Gold detectors which are well equipped with the most precise and best quality data output generation are 3D professional gold detectors. They have either a built in backlit digital display or can be connected to external devices through third party software which then helps generate various types of data in form of very intuitive and engaging 3D graphs.
