Have you ever played “treasure hunting” when you were a kid? Maybe youÂ’d recall the times when you and your childhood friends hid one anotherÂ’s toys in the garden and had lots of fun racing to unravel the items?

Many think that treasure hunting is only meant for kids. But the reality is that metal detecting, a form of

“treasure hunting” in its own right, is an activity enjoyed by thousands of adults around the world. The metal which people are after may either be discarded pieces of aluminium, valuable coins, or other buried treasures, which could easily be found if detected by a metal detector.

Many have taken up metal detecting as a hobby. The more common types of this hobby are:

Coin Shooting: Find valuable coins that have been left behind hundreds of years ago! Coin shooting can be a satisfying and lucrative leisure pursuit. Identifying the places to coin shoot is not difficult – think of the places in your area where people are likely to lose a coin or two. Try backyards, parks, playgrounds and the seaside or better still, go onto the Internet to research on the older sites.

Gold Prospecting: Treasure hunters in this group research and attempt to find caches of gold, silver or any valuables rumoured to be hidden at some place. Hundreds of Metal Detectionist clubs have been founded all over the world for this hobby. Gold prospecting with a club would mean more resources on the activity and tapping on the experiences of the experts. Many clubs also organise regular treasure huts and outings for metal-detector enthusiasts.

Relic Hunting: This is for those who are intrigued with historically significant artefacts, like weapons used

during the US Civil War. Usually, the relic hunter is concerned with the historical value of an object rather

than the monetary value. Potential spots to start with are old fort sites, stockades camps and other similar areas.

Beach Hunting: There is more treasure out on the beach than you could ever imagine. You donÂ’t have to venture far. One of the worldÂ’s best beach metal detecting locations is found right here in the United States because our beaches are dotted by ancient shipwrecks.

Metal hunting is an activity that can provide hours of entertainment. Plus, if you are lucky or simply just

hardworking enough, it could turn into a lucrative pastime! ItÂ’s time to pick up the metal detector and get out there!
