Hello all, I’m new to this world. But have always been interested.. After some research into what equipment beginners, intermediate and advanced users use and recommend. I settled on and purchased the Garrett AT Pro. I didn’t want to get something really cheap and get turned off from the whole...
Just getting into detecting in the Gulf and on the beach and I'm looking for suggestions with pros/cons for long handled scoops. I'd prefer one that can be used while standing. Any info would be appreciated.
I’m trying to find out if this is a clay pipe piece..I found it on the beach in Petersburg, Alaska and I am pretty sure it’s part of a pipe...I just have no clue what it’s made of or how old it might be...any info would be awesome!!
Odd 1715 Beach Find Needs Identified
Found this small piece on the low tide line near the treasure coast. Look familiar to anyone? Very old, highly corroded.
So my daughters school had "Take your child to work day" for work experience, I figured my daughter knows about my work...

I am headed to the east coast of Florida next week to visit relatives and there happens to be a storm currently forecast to impact the Treasure Coast at the same time I will be there. I have some basic information on the 1715 fleet wrecks and where to go, but looking for guidance and advice...
Went to a Treasure Coast beach yesterday here in Florida. Besides the assorted bottle caps and a not waterproof Samsung Galaxy S10e under 5 inches of compacted sand at the water line, I found the two larger metal pieces also in the wet sand and have no idea about these two items. The pieces in...
Would really like to hunt some of the RI beaches from now until Memorial Day, both in & out of the water. Was in South Kingstown yesterday at the Penguin Hunt sponsored by Awesome Relics New England and had a great time. I noticed police patroling the parking lot during the hunt and the gates...
Went shell searching on the north shore of Oahu with my girlfriend and her mother who have lived on the island all their lives and we found a stone which neither of them can identify.
You heard right, April 22, 2018 I found a nice little 14K Gold ring, my buddy Dave however found a killer 17 gram 22K Gold Coin (1976 Canadian Commemorative Coin). We both use Whites TDI S/L. It was about 5-6 inches down, a little beat up from rocks but a keep for sure.
Hello! I don't know much about rocks, but I was walking along the beach yesterday morning and found this really pretty rock. Does anyone know what type of rock this is? Thanks!
Well, I'm finally upgrading from my piddly short handled hand scoop to something much better. I'm getting ready to purchase a Stealth 720i, but there is a scoop option I need help with. In the past, the holes have been 1/2", but now you can have the option of 1/4" holes in the bottom and the...
I found this 23 gram 15k beast this summer in Vancouver. :hello2:
So happy to find it. Turns out there is a lot of Paladium in it too but only paid out for gold content unfortunately.
Howdy, I’m new member on this site, but long time lurker I love archeology, history, artifacts and apparently rocks ;-)
I am hoping you can help me prove to my husband and kids that these rocks are actual artifacts and not just random rocks. They usually make fun of me when I proudly pull...
Yesterday, I posted a thread here called a Few Whatsits and Two Bullets from Beach near Coast Guard. One of the items I asked for help identifying in particular now stands out after I read one of the responses I received:
Icewing told me this may be a broken old brass ship's spike or...
I went to a public beach near a Coast Guard station 10 minutes down the road to metal detect there with my Garrett Ace 250 again...

My dad believes these are...
I was married in 2010 and had custom made rings for me and my spouse. During a trip to ocean city md in 2011/2012 I was splashing in the ocean when my band flew off and plunged into the murky ocean water. My husband and a man that witnessed the tragedy searched for hours, but it was gone. If...
