Treasure Hunting

[MuckSavage]

This is cool, I'll follow along. My wife's more into detecting than I am. A friend of her's recently found a ring after a storm on the beach here in South Jersey. She had it appraised.....$18k!!!! It was diamond & platinum.

Nice! I bet that's a good feeling. ...

It is. We have more in our collection but are not in any hurry to liquidate everything. The coin that Diana found in a sand dune on a remote beach (in the northern hemisphere is all I'll say regarding location) dated from the early 19th century.

went to Arizona for Thanksgiving and did some meteorite hunting and came back with several good finds...... always fun when you go out.

Nice. Where were you hunting around? I was down in Phoenix for the holiday, stopped by A&B Prospecting and had a great chat with the employees. They have a really active prospecting and detecting population down that way. Should have brought a detector with me

My dad lives in Kingman so I go out there. There are a couple of good fields in that neck of the desert, Franconia and Golden valley. Both strewn fields produce well.

My partners and I prospect local creeks and honestly have not found a wealth of gold. There's always gold just not alot of it. Every trip is fun. Sounds like metal detecters are the way to go honestly. I would think beaches would be a great place to go. How water proof can detecters be? 30' maybe?
