zacharycash Pillar of the Community United States 668 Posts	Posted 07/10/2007 03:21 am Ok now that I have seen Nohope587s and some of you other guys' finds I want to get a metal detector? What kind would you reccomend looking at? I want it mostly for coins, and small stuff, and I dont want to spend too much money. Maybe 250 bucks? edit. Also what kind of places do you reccomend searching in? I have an old house on my property. We also just bought a 180 acre ranch that has a real old hunting cabin, and a few barns. Are these typicly good places? Edited by zacharycash 07/10/2007 03:23 am Report this Post to the Staff

I don't want to sway your choice of detector because I am biased towards mine. Look in the yellow pages for a supplier in your area and go try out a few also check out the pawn shops. The ones in my area at least usually have one or two in stock. As with everything you get what you pay for but you should be able to get a reasonable detector for your budget.

Randy Valued Member United States 86 Posts	Posted 08/25/2007 1:43 pm A couple of years ago, my brother bought a metal detector. His wife went out and hid some coins in the yard to see if he could find them. He didn't find any of the coins, but he found a $20 bill in the front yard. Go figure! Report this Post to the Staff
