metal detecting /treasure hunting.

Wouldn’t it be fun to get a metal detector and search through a nearby forest for something old and valuable? I saw this video where they go to the beach and scans the shore with metal detectors and find jewelries. I saw another one diving rivers using it too.

I have seen videos about it on my newsfeed. Do you think that metal detector is real?

Definitely super fun! But don't forget to check the local laws before you go! I heard 2026, most National Forests allow recreational detecting for lost jewelry/coins, but they are very strict about digging up anything historical or archaeological

I agree with @LeatherallyC00l! Some states are prohibiting the use of metal detectors on public land.

Haven't tried but I've seen some videos. Even the one who dives rivers and give phones back to their owners.

Does anyone know where I can buy a good metal detector?

@mr awes0me just get the Equinox 900. It has a compact design and is also submersible up to 16 feet (5 meters).

+1 @Alan! My neighbor has this model and he even invited me to join him looking for precious metals.

How was the experience? Oh wait, did you join your neighbor?

This is quite interesting. I saw videos online of folks using this metal detector thing. Is this thing real?
