Stan's comments on this metal detecting article...

Here is a good, simple article about Treasure Hunting with Metal 
Detectors. For me, one of the most important points made in this metal 
detecting article is that the more money you invest in your metal detector, 
the greater the chance of finding a treasure that completely pays for 
your investment. 

Treasure Hunting and Metal Detectors
by: David Sanders

Whether you are searching as a hobby or if you are hoping to find a 
significant treasure beneath the earths surface, metal detectors may be 
the answer. Just as their name implies, metal detectors are used to 
detect different types of metals, which may include gold and silver. If you 
are a prospector, then a metal detector is a must-have tool for your 
search. If you collect coins or simply want to find some loose change 
that has been left behind, these handy tools may be able to help in your 
search. If you are searching for a hidden treasure, theres no better 
gadget than a metal detector to have in your grasp. Even the little ones 
can join in on the fun with specially designed toy metal detectors that 
are created to mimic the authentic versions. 

Metal detectors that are used for treasure hunting and/or prospecting 
are handheld units that are fairly lightweight and are designed to 
notify the owner of a potential find with a buzzing or beeping sound. 
Depending on whether you are prospecting for fun or profit, you will need to 
choose a metal detector that best suits your needs and your budget. A 
metal detector with advanced features and has the ability to detect 
items far beneath the surface will be more expensive than a basic model 
that is only able to scan for a minimal distance. 

With so many advancements being made in the way of technology, metal 
detectors have come far since their inception. Today, the more advanced 
handheld units offer a small screen for displaying an outline of the 
detected object. Even though it is beneath the grounds surface and not 
visible to the naked eye, some metal detectors have the capability of 
actually producing an image of the item(s) found. This is beneficial to the 
owner for many reasons, including the convenience of knowing whether or 
not the detected object is a real treasure or just a simple piece of 
metal. 

As for finding handheld metal detectors, they are commonly available at 
most gold and silver prospector locations and catalogs. If you are not 
near a popular prospecting site, a quick internet search may reveal a 
host of companies that offer metal detectors in all sizes, styles and 
with a variety of features. The cost will vary depending on the model 
that you choose, but one significant treasure find could end up being 
worth the cost of the metal detector itself.
