A question most new detectorists ask is,
“where do I nd treasure”? There are actually
lots of areas in which you can search. It is
best if you research where people have been
in the past, what type of objects they might
have had with them, and hopefully lost. You
can also go to areas people still use on a daily
basis such as the beach or parks, and search
for modern coins and jewellery.
Here is a list of some of the more productive
places to search:
– Your own backyard
– The beach
– Showgrounds & racecourses
– Picnic areas
– Battleelds
– Camping grounds
– Swimming holes
– Parks and playgrounds
– Ghost towns & ancient town sites
– Old homes & public buildings
– Old gold mining sites
– Sports grounds
– School yards and ovals
– Around jetties and piers
– Drive-in theatres
There is a chance of nding buried treasure,
such as coins, relics and jewellery, anywhere
that people have been in the past. In order
to maximise your return, select sites that have
the most potential.
For example, a small park that is just used
as a walkway between houses is likely to
be littered with junk with very few valuable
targets in it. Whereas a larger old park with
picnic tables, playgrounds, etc. would have
had thousands of people sitting around,
playing sports, laying on blankets etc. and
you can almost be certain that there will be
some goodies waiting for your metal detector.
Note: Be sure to obtain the land owners
permission before searching on private property,
and always check local regulations. Your local
Minelab dealer may be able to assist.
Always rell your holes. If you leave the
ground exactly as you found it, you shouldn’t
have any problem detecting the same area in
the future.
