Probably the Tesoro Inca,

Cuz it found a lot of stuff. It was a great machine for hunting in the woods, and in civil war campsites.

I had mainly spent my time Coin Hunting with periodic ventures to ghost towns and the like, but when the Inca was introduced in July of '83, and it demonstrate what it could do in those dense iron contaminated old sites, I made an immediate shift to Relic Hunting 85+% of the time.

Favoring smaller-size coils, I immediately swapped the 7" Concentric from my Mayan to my Inca and singled out three all-time favorite old townsites that almost seemed to have an endless supply of silver Seated Liberties, Shield & 'V' Nickels, Indian Heads, 2¢ and 3¢ Pieces, and a lot more than I have ever found since that 'era' from any location.

I prefer the thin-profile 6" Concentric coils on my Bandido II µMAX and Silver Sabre µMAX, but they are hanging on my den wall with my other detectors and a trusty Inca that keeps the 7" Concentric coil mounted. A very proven performer, to be sure.
