metal detecting

As I understand the laws and rules might be different from area to area and where I live it´s not allowed to go hunting with a detector on the beaches in Sitges, Barcelona due to the high amount of ancient coins on the beaches and they don't want tourists to grab them.. and are better where they...

Legend has it, Detroit’s Purple Gang, used to be in the area and possibly hid some goods where we went Metal detecting. My friend Eric invited me out to his In-Laws to search for some relics and hopefully unearth some Purple Gang treasure! Owen went to hunt too!

Found Iron Case or Box near Stagecoach Trail (Applegate Trail). 1850-1870? Super cool find, as a case like this to just be abandoned without a station nearby, most likely denotes a potential robbery or attempted robbery. I am currently searching area for more clues! ⚒️💰 I have uploaded my...

Hello! Been AGES since I've posted. Scored 25 cent silver spoon at a thrift store. Possibly 2 silver ones. Can anyone help me identify the small Dutch one? Is it silver or not? Has markings but not sure. I know the other is (even though it looks goldish for some reason) because it says Sterling...

Hey all, First post on this forum of my first and last 'hunt' of 2022. I stumbled across a field with unusual crop marks. A two-day search followed in an attempt to find out more about this place. The results were somewhat disappointing. A pile of iron (lots of UO's - Unidentified objects -)...
