Hello all,
A few weeks ago, I visited the Outer Banks in North Carolina and rented a crappy metal detector for the duration of our stay. I had lots of fun but I found nothing more than modern pocket change and trash. Although my search for doubloons was unsuccessful, I had a lot of fun with it.
A few days ago, I started looking into purchasing a metal detector to use here in Michigan. Today, I purchased a Minelab Equinox 600 metal detector and Pro-Find 35 pinpointer. I know it's probably overkill for a beginner like me, but I really liked the multi-frequency capabilities. I just went to a local park for two hours and found more pocket change (and trash) than I found in one week on the beach. I'm looking forward to the thrill of the hunt and perhaps even finding some buried treasure!
