I have been interested in metal detecting for years now, but never that seriously.
Had a couple of small hobby units many years ago, but nothing serious.
Is there anyone out there with a good knowledge of machines available to give advice on buying and using?
Maybe if a few are into it we could group up on occasions and "find vast wealths!!"
Just think, we are exploring all these sites in UE, but what lies beneath?
Any feedback people?

Im interested in going along to group occasions, but would'nt buying any kit myself, the prices of equipment is phenominal if you are serious about it.

Got no advice to give about them however as I have never owned one, not even a kiddys one haha! Just interested in what people might find with em.

roman coins or jewels from 900bc

Just hope they dont have 900bc written on em

I owned a Metal dector some years ago and found a shilling. But no archology LOL.. mind you i prefare the archology and the sort

Matt, ive seen machines that would get you going below £100.
I know the basics and have had them in the past, mainly Moreton shore and Hoylake, Biggest find was a WW2 British helmet at Moreton buried in the dunes!

Hi Angela, did yo ever get in touch with a group for metal detecting. I was with west kirby 1 for years. if u still want a number let me know. Oh and b the wa the parkgate 1 dont exsist anymore.

Hi Kenny,
It's actually my son who does the metal detecting.I'd be grateful if you do have a number for a club. I think he wrote to the chap who used to run the Parkgate one and he said the club had been disbanded.Thanks again

You should be able to talk to Pam on this number. Now im not sure if she has moved but please give it a try. Kenny
