metal detcting

My camp's been in use as a sleepaway camp since '48, but before that it was a train station and a spring house. While staying the past two summers, I found a few metal hair beads, a belt buckle, and a really old spoon in one of the cabin villages. With those things combined, I feel like it would...

My mate and I spent a summer CITing at a camp together, and after finding a bunch of weird old stuff there over the years (such as fancy spoons spoons and the ruins of an old tire swing set), we decided we wanted to get into detector treasure hunting. He lives in Lancaster County, and I live...

The location is now a church with a soccer field. The tot lot was small and had a fence around it so I only had like 5 square feet that i could detect. This was about 3in down found with garret at pro. I don’t know much of anything about this and am assuming its early 1800s so if you know...

Howdy all, I'm a creative producer. A few years ago I was here because one of my Youtube clients was in need of something new - and so I set to work building big ideation for him. It ended up evolving into something much bigger than a Youtube video however and instead of working with a Youtuber...

Went metal detecting at the Manchester Fairgrounds yesterday. This is the same venue for the Manchester Chicken Broil and soccer games as well. Many people will park their cars along the fence. I am metal detecting for dropped items and make a couple fun discoveries!

Hello folks! Was super happy with this 50 cent sterling ww2 pin I found at the thrift store today. I looked on ebay, and it's going for around 40-60 dollars. Not sure if I could get that for it. But still cool. Need some advice about this possible sterling spoon. There is markings on the back...

Went out detecting my homestead for a bit today so I can get used to my new NEL Superfly 11x12” for my Apex. It’s a great coil to add to your arsenal, for sure. I was swinging over a spot I’ve hit many times and found a 1944-D Mercury Dime and a 1937 Buffalo Nickel. Woo!! Have a great weekend...

Found metal detecting today. It is hollow, has at least three nails in the top. The bottom is very rusted, but looks like it could be a wheel. It’s is an inch wide and about 2 feet long.

So I haven't posted in a while, but this one rang up on my Equinox 600, and I was pretty stoked. 18k gold ring, 17g. I need some info on this, because I'm getting mixed reviews. Some say the motto "In Hoc Signo Vinces" makes it definitely Templar Masons, others say the scimitar makes it...

Hey what's up everybody I'm from Modesto and new to metal detecting if anybody wants to link up and share metal detecting stories hit me up.

Was found about 20 feet from a stream off a big hill where an old forge used to be. Iron Thanks and happy detecting

Pre-dawn front lawn metal detecting. This was my 4th target! I know it is late 19th to 20th century, no mark, but red paint on back, The only thing I found online associated with red paint and army button was D. EVAN'S & CO... who knows? The target was 3 to 4 inches deep in front of the train...

I have worked for the owners of the Depot in Pueblo since 2014. I have been metal detecting for a week, and already have the fever to hunt. Today I plan on asking permission to metal detect the property. My family lived in Pueblo since the 1800's. In 1943 my grandfather left for WWII from this...

Hi all I was just wondering if anyone knew of any good spots to metal detect around the Amherst area in Massachusetts. Any info would be useful, thanks!

This week's haul included a junk ring, tons of clad, a 2017 charm, and a WW2 bullet jacket (and scrap metal). I didn't have the best of luck but I had a great time. Maybe next time, right?

After some extensive hiking and hacking through the woods, I come across the cellar holes of the old farm house property. As I dig deeper into the thickets, I come across springs for beds and melted glass scattered across the ground, along with other metal pieces. This is where it gets good, as...

Hey Group I'm Matt and I'm new here but I have been in the detecting hobby for about a year now. I go once or twice a month and I have been fortunate enough to dig up a gold bar "2.5 oz", old coins, musket ram rod near a skirmish site, civil war bullets, wagon wheel and more. But out of all...

I am in the zone! 4 gold rings so far this week. Love this hobby.
