metal detecting

I metal detected for half a hour and found 1959 D penny at a 1950s school. I am metal detecting again today maybe at a school that was made in about 1810 that is still around. Yes, 1810 not 1910. or maybe a school made in 1900. I was wondering how long does it take to find a wheat. I have metal...

Just a general question. What is your favorite treasure hunting, metal detecting channel(s) you subscribe to on You Tube? No points off for self-promotion! Rick

Visiting some family in McPherson soon. I believe I read online that MDing is not permitted in McPherson parks. Where can I hunt nearby? Lindsborg or Salina parks okay to hunt? I can't seem to fnd anything online regarding these two cities. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I recently bought some more farm ground right next to my place that had an old house that was build around 1900 and was moved in the late 50s. I had to cut alot of trees and brush finaly got livestock on it and able to detect it now. I scored my best find ever when I was getting a high low...

Pretty proud of this find considering I just started a few weeks ago. Is it as rare as it seems to be on-line? I can't find a lot of information on these and would appreciate any help I can get! It's brass, rectangular, it's in pretty great shape, found on private family property that we've...

Found this relic hunting today on land that has been in my family since early 1800s. I can't find anything on-line like it and was just wondering what war it was from? Year? Value? It's in GREAT condition. It's brass, slightly larger than a quarter, has "Made in England" on the back and has...

Got out for a couple hours before dark and found these. It was fun pulling one out and rechecking only to find there was more in the hole : ) HH OMWP

I've been interested in metal detecting for a very long time but I finally got around to getting into it. Thanks to my brother, who bought a detector and prompted me to get one. When I was younger and living in Georgia I hunted arrowheads and other Cherokee Indian artifacts. Sadly, my arrowheads...

Hey all. New to the hobby and around the Petersburg Virginia area. Seen a few posts about meeting up around the tr-cities, but theyre pretty old. Let me know uif youre around my area and want to talk diggin. thanks.

I guess it's okay to dump trash, but Cook County, IL bans detectorists! If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything!

I live in a area that has a decent amount of dry washes with specks of gold in the wash. I am looking to purchase equipment that allows me to pan for the gold in the washes (I will be bringing my own water in large containers with my ATV). I found this lot of gold mining equipment on a...

Hello friends! Well two days ago, my dad told me about dowsing. I had never really heard about it, just about people finding water with sticks. So I started looking into it. I seen people dowsing photos of areas, and it really intrigued me. I believed! Which I believe is very important. So...

Can a MD be used to find diamonds? David

So I went out for a second hunt this afternoon and had some more very minor success. I found another Quarter (clad 2000), and six pennies (various dates, including my FIRST WHEATIE 1944). It's crazy how deep those coins are (maybe 4–5 inches and only 12 years old) I also found a locket that...

Hey there! Recently found this axe head in yard of old farmhouse in Ohio. Used electrolysis to remove a lot of sediment and rocks attached. Any idea of the period? It weighs 4 lbs. Thanks!

Me and Dale32 took our MDs out to a disclosed location yesterday. It started out average, a few dimes, pennies, quarters. Then out of no where we hit the jackpot. In about 15 minutes we found a total of 98 quarters! Can't wait to go back. Why do you think there were than many quarters there? Any...

What is the craziest or funniest thing anyone has ever told you while detecting? Once in chicago a kid (like 7 years old, i'm 13) said hey you aint gonna find nothin here. I just smiled and said sure. 15 min later I found a 14k gold earring!

i have some sluice boxes ive been checking out. i want to buy one soon. i was interested in the bazooka gold trap sluice, the keene A52 sluice box, the yellow jacket, and the le trap sluice. i want to know which one will find me the most gold and last longest. thank you so much.

Great day today! Having a blessed streak. It's going to be an awesome weekend! Also attached recent bracelet find and other rings from a few month back. woo hoo

Hi, I normally use a sturdy Bowie knife to dig my targets. I was wondering what everyone else used and if anyone had any suggestions.

I detected a 150 year old church the other day. I am a little new with the mxt. The old church only had the foundation left and all around the church were hot rocks everywhere. The mxt was just going crazy . I ground balanced on normal soil like i always do. Should i ground balance it on those...

Hi All, I live in south Florida (Boca Raton) and recently got into metal detecting. I got a Bounty Hunter Lone Star from Bass Pros Outdoor World. This is what i want to accomplish, detecting on the beach and in the water up to say 5' deep. What detector do you recommend for the salt water...

I'm going to the beach and am planning to get some headphones for my MD to not disturb people trying to have fun an all. My budget is very tight because of the short notice, so I need something $30 or under. I don't want such low quality that is breaks after a couple of trips but it needs to do...

I'm looking for someone experienced in the art of metal detecting that can take me under their wing and show me the basics. I do not have a detector yet, because I don't know where to look for quality machines and I'm a poor married student. I would be willing to help with hunts in Utah Valley...
