I would suggest the notch machine for coins and jewelry. Also your hunting areas point toward the 1350.

GTP can size a target, the vaquero can't. You will dig more coins in a year with the GTP 1350 because you will only dig coinsized objects and leave the junk in the ground that you would probably dig with the Vanquero. But....you have to properly learn the GTP 1350. It is not a simple turn on and hunt detector.....

I haven't owned a V but I've owned a ton of Tesoros ever since Jack Gifford opened his doors for business over 25 years ago. Many years ago Jack published a newspaper and I used to write for it. Tesoros are good machines but they can't do what a 1350 can do. If you want to dig goodies and leave the junk in the ground go with the 1350. Mind you it has a bit of a learning curve but it will reward you in the long run for learning.. Good luck in your decision.
