Greetings all!
I'm new to the forums, and overall new to treasure hunting as well. However treasure hunting seems like a great hobby (dare I say sport?) to get in to. I live in Florida, and ever since I was in my early teens I've heard of the unclaimed riches buried within the sands of this land by various pirates, Spaniards, and even Indians. Even if I don't find anything, its just dang nice to be outdoors.
So with that, I would like to start the search. I figured a good metal detector would be a good place to start. The problem is I have no idea what to get! I'm sure as with anything there are good brands and bad brands of metal detectors. Honestly, I'm on a tight budget. I'm looking for something that has quality, but it won't break the bank. If possible, waterproof would be nice (I am in Florida after all!)
I can always upgrade in the future. If I really get in to treasure hunting I'll probably travel around with it to see what I can find around the country also.
Can I get something like this for under 150-200?
Whats the best thing I can get for around that price range or lower?
I heard a lot of people use those PI metal detectors down near the Florida coast looking for treasure. If there are any within my price range (or close to it), I would love to get one of those.
Let me know,
Thanks!
