Warwick Wolf in Warwick-- England -Had my CZ5 for 10 years now, luv it to bits, great depth super sensitive to small hammered and roman coins. Knocks spots off my old C-scope. Looking to get 12.5 sunray coil in near future should be the mutts nutts

the best so far
Michael Asbach in olympia,Washington -I have used compass, whites, garretts,and fisher...so far the cz-5 is the best..it will give you faint too strong audio signals, which lets you tell just by sound when the target is deeper, like older coins...strong blasting signals are usually the more modern coins...this detector does it all..beach.relic. and coins...I have used it in all metal mode and have found bb's in the sand...it is real sensitive

Haven't yet found a better machine...
bisty5.0 in MD -Hi Diggers,
Been diggin since I was in my early teens. (I'm 20)
Have used a:
Radioshack
Bounty hunter QDII
Whites IDX Pro
Tesoro Tejon
CZ 5
I love the multitones on my CZ. The depth is phenomenal. Believe it or not, it beats the Tejon for depth in my soil. (Maryland) It's about equal to it in the all metal, but as soon as you switch to DISC preset 1 or 2 on the CZ, you retain your depth, where it will drop off with the Tejon. That is a spectacular and quite unique feature.
It's ridiculously easy to pinpoint. Batteries are long lasting and cheap. Easy Easy Easy to ground balance. Coins/Relic/Jewelry... Very versatile machine. Hipmountable. Doesn't get much better.
Just my two cents.. (1877 and 1909S..)

PS Don't buy a radioshack unless you lost your license plate.

Best coin machine on the planet
mtdoramike in Central Florida -I've been using the CZ5 now for about a year. It is the best coin machine bar none. It consistantly out performs the Coinstrike & CZ70pro. Its truely a nickel magnet. Its ashame that they replaced this unit with the CZ3d after all these years. I think it was a big mistake, but mistakes are made all the time with the intent to improve something that doesn't need improving.

Fisher CZ 5
MMND in USA -I think the cz5 is one of the best detecters out there. I have bought and tried so many new models that come out and always end up selling them and going back to my good old cz5. I put mine on a strap and put it over my shoulder, I don't think it is heavy at all that way, and I have a bad back. I see someone up above said it was heavy, I never heard that before from anyone. If a guy don't hip or chest or shoulder mount it might be a little heavy, for use older guys anyway.
All around it is a great detecter, the only complaint I would have is it does like nails, until a guy gets good and used to it, that might be the main thing to grip about. But it depends where you hunt and also like I said, after you get used to it a guy can pretty much tell if it is a nail or not.
It is a real good Nickel finder, maybe the best I have ever used. All and all I would say the meter is about 90% correct, which is pretty good considering all the hundreds if not thousands of different items out there we pick up on the ground. This is just my own opinion of this detector after using it and always goning back to it.
I would like to rate it at 4 and a half stars because of the nails it likes in certain spots but there is no 4 and a half up there.
Happy Hunting all you Fisher user's.
