A lovely find of iron age Staters, I,ve only ever found one and that was off a so called worked out site on my own permissions

It also depends on your hearing as well :g58: some detectors are irritating to some users, if your hard of hearing like me? a machine that as a crisp two way signal can help. The minelabs are brilliant machines, but the explorer range take some getting use to by a beginner, they whistle and squeak a...

I have had pro on my computer for ages but it was a free download, and no attempt to charge me at all at a later date I had them both on until recently the normal google earth just vanished off my desktop a couple of weeks back

It makes you wonder just exactly has happened Is someone £750,000 better off ? Or is it still there somewhere, but like looking for a needle in an haystack

If you are looking for lightweight around the £200 mark I would suggest the Tesoro range is a good place to start they are very good detectors and the control boxes are very small and light :) But I would,nt rule out e-bay if your after a bargain :g58: http://www.garysdetecting.co.uk/tesoro.htm http...

I know one chap at our club that has gone back to a T2 after having a Deus but not sure if he is actually finding any more than he did with his Deus, I will ask him next time I see him? I would say that a T2 would be ...

Hi, Just after the thoughts of seasoned Detectorists if I may. I've read, read and more read, and soon I'll be buying my first machine, have been looking at the Garrett Ace 250 and then my thinking was to upgrade later to maybe the AT Pro. my question is, is it best to start with a machine, learn a...

The "Sandbach Brooch", as the PAS christened it, was found in 2011 by my good friend and detecting buddy Stan (Lobo) Cooper. It was declared treasure at inquest, went through the system and was disclaimed and returned in 2012, then went to auction. The bidding was opened at £10,000 and th...

Another one handed back, must be strapped for cash

i think maybe the present overwhelming amount of detector finds and the lack of money in the museums could mean a lot of nice finds could be getting handed back in the future

It seems strange something so nice is handed back when I have had badly damaged gold items taken off me

Great article When I started metal detecting I never dreamt I would be handing over treasure items to the museum But I have on numerous occasions, I was happy just finding Victorian pennies and my original dream was to find a 1933 penny

I love this programme I wish it would be as regular as crappy Coronation street or excrutiating painful Eastenders

April fools or not these things do happen My detecting buddy Dazz found a gold bracelet in a bag of compost or was it a growbag
