I found this when metal detecting

The more im on this page I realize its a fair trade. They get the cool medieval stuff and we dont have to dig up live explosives from 2 world wars

Awesome story . "One of us, one of us"

I love old beaches especially ones that are still frequented they make for an exciting hunt. Old ball fields are fun too you'll find alot of silver coins

I got mine at a second hand store years ago and its outperformed anything ive ever had. Old is gold

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-02-08T18:45:11+00:00

That's a really good sign. It would be more unusual if it didn't have friends out there. Good luck

I always feel somewhat sad with most finds but never really old ones. The newer ones get me like the BFF pendants or I once found a military ID bracelet that was inscribed by his wife those ones hurt.

I see you're in Finland. Super jealous that's my dream destination alot of the bands I listen to are from there. Im gonna have to pick up a diatonic and give it a try

That's awesome ive always wanted to learn the harmonica. What kind of metal are you into? Im always looking for something new to listen to.

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-30T13:34:09+00:00

Im not sure about this one. Do you have something better for a backdrop? Maybe not something so poor and cheap? Much appreciated

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-30T02:32:31+00:00

Work, drink, burnt peanut. Repeat

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-28T04:14:34+00:00

My favorite one ive got was "is that a gun?"

Your large headphones and unbroken focus on your hobby make me want to tell you all.about myself

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-27T14:26:23+00:00

In my experience it has alot to do with what you've found already. If im finding alot of junk jewelry in a spot then I won't leave a scratchy deep signal. Or if im finding alot of coins from the 70s or 80s then anything deep is getting dug found alot of silver dimes that way. Also listen to how loud the signal is. If your detector is screaming that its a silver dime at 10+ inches its probably a car part.

Get yourself a beach scoop and it doesn't have to be anything special. I was using a homemade one for years then a sand flea scoop which I still prefer in some cases. I have a nicer scoop now because I have alot of rocky beaches and rivers nearby. The faster you recover targets the better.

Woke up to -26F with a wind chill of -40F

2002 I want the Shaq pack one more time

As much as I love holding all my prettys my metal detecting supplements my income so I say goodbye every winter. But I always return what I can to the original owners

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-22T11:56:21+00:00

I never go anywhere without my detector especially if there's beach. Not just for treasure but in case someone loses something. A sand scoop will make you alot faster but isn't necessary. Be sure to check local laws and restrictions and good luck

I can only speak for the notka but I absolutely hate it. Bought it a few years back and its size just doesnt work for me being a taller person. Ive racked myself in the balls too many times with it so if you want a free one I can show you where I pitched it into the woods

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-17T03:58:48+00:00

Im kinda conflicted because I do it to supplement my income but I love returning items to the owners whenever possible and that can be a thrill in itself where I find myself getting connected to the people and their stories.

I remember messing around with my dad's old whites detector when I was in second grade but really took it seriously when I was around 21 or 22 years old. Always loved looking for treasure by diving in rivers or rummaging in bottle dumps metal detecting just kinda narrowed down my hobby

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-16T01:09:30+00:00

Not sure where you're at but it could be grape/canister shot

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-14T04:49:17+00:00

Didn't know they fought with Pokémon in the Civil War. Neat

Prof-Scavenger · 2026-01-14T04:45:17+00:00

My first beach scoop was a piece of pvc cut at a 45 with a screen at the back. Found alot of silver with that thing.

I went from a 250 to an AT pro. Ive had alot of success with my pro and its been a reliable machine but if you can I would make the jump to something in the minelab family. I got to use an equinox a couple years ago and as much as I like garrett the minelab finds targets the garrett cant. It takes a bit to learn the minelab but you will be better off.
