Which metal detector is best for nugget hunting?

Which metal detector is best for nugget hunting? Except Minelab GPX 3000, 3500, 4000, 4500 and 5000. Which can detect more deep and small nugget. Let me now please.

Welcome from Arizona.   Clearly you consider Minelab to be the detector brand of choice (and there is no arguing that it has a good reputation for a reason).   If you want to look at other detectors, look at the Tesoro Lobo Super Traq or most of the PI detectors.  But detectors are personal choices much like cars and cameras.

There are a few things that you need for nugget hunting and worth considering.
The first one is good strong set of legs to be able to walk for miles. If you don’t walk over it you will never find it.
The second is to be able to fluently understand your detector language. The detector (some more than others) will talk to you, but if you don’t understand what he is saying to you will never find it.
The last thing is for you to make a decision on how big nuggets you want to find.
For sub gram so called nuggets you don’t need a 5000$ detector you will be better with a gold pan.
That’s my 2cents worth of advice perhaps will help.
