North Carolina Relic Hunting

[NC_Andrew]

Hey All!

I have been detecting for a few years now and been in Raleigh for 3 years. Not being from the area originally I am always looking for help and recommendations. Does anyone have suggestions on areas to detect for either relics or coins, around the Raleigh/Durham area? I know there is a lot of history around here but many great hot spots are on private land or are now historical sites meaning NO DETECTING. I could really use some help.

Butner is 30 miles to your north and was a WWII training camp that trained roughly 1,000,000 troops.
Quite a few of the original buildings remain, and there are many places to hunt.
You do have to be careful though as live ammo is still found there.

Along with any relics/coins dug ill bet you could make some $ if one puts in the time [back ache] digging scrap Brass & Lead [mostly brass for the time put in] , at such a site. IMO
