Anyone know what the rules are for metal detecting in Central Park, NYC.
Permit is free...ikes4ever said:how much is the permit
As others have already said, there is no metal detecting allowed in Central Park, 843 acres of silver coins, gold coins, silver & gold jewelry, old coins medals, EVERYTHING! I know, I removed a lot of each of those objects. The enforcement of the no detecting rule is what got me to retire from metal detecting 2003. Even though I knew it was not allowed I still made forays and when I was approached by a Ranger (on horse, on foot, in vehicles) I would feign ignorance and volunteered to leave immediately. One wrong word could have resulted in my equipment being confiscated and a citation issued. I stopped taking chances.ikes4ever said:Anyone know what the rules are for metal detecting in Central Park, NYC.
