What I want to stress first is everybody has their own methods, and finds their own way of doing it. These are only guides to help you start off, and I don’t want to take responsibility for any damage caused. GROUND CARE: It is good practice to wherever possible detect on land that has already been disturbed for example ploughed fields. If you are metal detecting on undisturbed pasture you should ensure that no damage is done to the archaeological value of the land. Ensure all holes are properly filled and use the correct tools. Fill holes as neatly as possible. It is always advisable to have your finds professionally cleaned especially finds of importance and coins.

Buying the best metal detector is the first step in this hobby. The next thing that you have to do is the research part, where it’s going to be a good spot to hunt for some treasure. That’s not going to be that simple and it usually helps if you can find some olds maps or if you have some history books which have indications of older places or towns. This will improve your chances of finding something old like a small treasure and you want all the ods to be on your side.Depending on how simple it is going to be to get there and on how many people are usually there then I know for sure if it’s a great area to metal detect. For the special treasures, the ones are hidden underground from a long time ago I suggest doing research. Look at your library and online in history books and look for hints where actions took place, there was a market and from which directions people came into that area. There’s a big chance that you’ll find hidden treasures. Items that are less than 300 years old, that are made substantially of precious metals, that have purposely been hidden with the intent of recovery and whose rightful owners or heirs are unknown will fall into this category. In the past these places have been used for many different public events, like Fairs, Fates, Concerts, Circuses, one common I know of was used as a shooting range around the time of the war and the ground is full of old bullets! This being said some people would prefer to clean their finds themselves and through hours of research we are going to elaborate on the “Top Methods” Cleaning Buttons

Before you go out and metal detect it is a good idea to follow on through our beginners series, the next part covers the Metal Detecting Code of Conduct.If it is in “holiday maker” season then I would advise getting there at sunrise so you have plenty enough time before people start to arrive. Gardens Some local authorities are very strict with the “No Metal Detecting” Rule while others are more relaxed allowing you to detect as long as you follow the code of conduct and the treasury act.

RESPECT THE COUNTRY CODE: Leave gates and property as you find them, do your best to ensure you do not damage crops, scare any animals, disturb any ground nesting birds and always take your litter with you. You could also remove any litter you may come across along the way.While out with your metal detector you are learning, learning about the history of our ancestors and their cultures. You will gain knowledge on coinage, tools, jewellery and other items people used years ago. It’s just part of the hobby taking home all of your finds, cleaning your finds and then researching them. You will be digging a lot of “ junk” signals until you learn to determine how to “ discriminate” and determine the target sounds. The PAS is a voluntary programme that is run by the UK Government to record the numbers of small finds, or finds of historical and archaeological interest made by members of the general public. It began in 1997 and covers the most of England and Wales. There is something very peaceful about the hobby, and in turn can help with stress. While you are out there in the open space around the country side, or on a beach your mind is focused on the treasure hunt which in turn can help day to day worries leave your mind for a while.

The majority of your silver coins will be found in a fairly good condition as silver does not corrode as easily as the Bronze and Copper coins. So before you go ahead and clean you should know that coin collectors actually prefer silver coins to have patina and toning to them opposed to polished. If you want to go ahead still and clean at this point, then the same process applies as Bronze and Copper, 25% ammonia, submerge, stir, leave for 10 to 15 minutes, remove, rinse, gently wipe dry. The scheme funds the posts of Finds Liaison Officers at county councils and local museums to whom finders can then report the objects they found to. The Finds Liaison Officer is qualified enough to analyse, research and examine the find and then give the finder more information on it. I have listed all of the known metal detecting clubs in the UK, and we plan on adding more from around the world at a later date. However if you are someone who likes to be alone, or just with the family then the hobby is perfect. I have known many people take their wives and children on a day out with a detector. REPORTING FINDS: Report any archaeological or historical finds you have made to the landowner or tenant, and with the agreement of the landowner or tenant report to the Portable Antiquities Scheme so the information can be passed to the Local Historic Environment Record.

Under the English Laws, landowners have the sole title and ownership to any archaeological artifacts found on their land or property. It is good practice to make an agreement, preferably a written contract with the landowners or tenants before you metal detect on their land. This agrees that you will share any monetary proceeds from sales of the treasure. The map documented the names of anyone living there and the owners. It also documented what the land was used for. Tithe maps are a good place to do research of land. In my years of detecting, I have also seen some very beautiful sunsets and witnessed some incredible views. Sometimes in life we forget just how beautiful the world can be.
