phrunt Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I think you made the right decision, you're at the cutting edge of technology rather than a decades old design. Both are great detectors but I think it's best if you're investing a large sum of money to get something modern, just because the AT Max is priced as high as it is doesn't mean it should be. I only have the AT Gold not the Max, and I really like it but I'd rarely pick to use it over my Equinox (Legend's twin brother with brittle bones and incontinence). The Multi freakers are just like having multiple detectors in one, so you really bought a few different detectors with the Legend rather than boxed yourself into a single frequency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mh9162013 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 The 540 and AT Max have their advantages, but given your needs, the Legend was the right choice. And yes, the AT Max does seem to have some surprising resell value, but it's because it was overpriced* to begin with, not because you're really getting more for your metal detecting dollar. * Overpriced doesn't mean bad. It just means there are other options that give you more features for a particular price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt4gold Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Shop a round and I’ll bet you can find a used Legend with 2 coils for under $500. Legend hands down the best of the 3 for what you are planning on using it for. Oh I see you made a wise decision. Go tear it up and post some finds now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
