Or the Nokta Makro Simplex+
Both the above are often compared in YouTube, so watch a couple of videos. The simplex looks a little more modern, and is 'waterproof' and charges from usb. The vanquish is a bit bulkier but uses multi frequency detection which should give better results. The vanquish uses AA batteries, which I actually find better as I can carry spares around ready to swap in. A set of rechargeable last about 8 hours.
There is quite an art to learning to read the signals. A decent detector will often find metal in a farmers field every couple of steps, the art is predicting if it is worth digging up or not.
You listen to the tones, check from different angles etc.
Both of the above will easily detect 12-18" down.
Remember that you need permission to dig in most places though, you can't just wander down to the park to search. There are loads of organised digs, but then you pay a fee to participate. Many public beaches are free to search in the UK though.

And it's a tenner cheaper and has been decent. It can be extended a bit but it really is predominantly for kids
It won't be any use for anything more serious though. It doesn't offer any discrimination, so will detect everything. Proper detectors will give you some kind of feedback through the tones and the numbers produced on the screen.
We started with a cheap detector and quickly moved on to a proper detector (albeit at the lower end of proper)
We got the Minelab Vanquish 440, and it has been a lot more fun since, on the downside proper detectors are a bit too heavy for my 10 year old to swing for more than 15 minutes or so.
