Question about CZ-5

Can someone tell me about this detector? I have found one that is like new for sale. I am thinking about buying it. But I do not know anything about the unit. Also is it worth $400.

Thanks
Tom

Hi Tom,
I may not be the best, since I have never used a CZ5. They were the base of my CZ3d detector though, and I love it. CZs are traditionally easy to learn and operate. They go deep and they find a lot of stuff. I would guess that $400 may be to the slightly high side of the price, but you said it was like new and that may make up the difference. There is a ton of information available about CZs and a large group of very enthusiastic users. A lot of the CZ5 guys have never updated, thinking they had the best of the CZ line. I hope some others will chime in, but I think you might find the CZ to be a great detector. I have a detector that cost a lot more and for normal coin hunting in old ground I find myself reaching for my CZ.

HH,

If you can find out if it can detect a dime in an air-test ... to a depth of 11" or greater......it should be worth the money.

Well, after a lot of reading, downloading the manual and a dozen emails to the seller, I have purcahsed the CZ-5. I should receive it later next week. I will keep you informed.
