Metal detecting is the activity of finding metals using a metal detector.
Metal detector tools can detect metals buried in the soil or sand, even to a depth of several meters.
Metal detecting can be done in various locations, such as beaches, forests, parks, or even open fields.
Some metal detectors have various features, such as sensitivity control, discrimination, or certain search modes.
Metal detecting can be a pleasant hobby, because you can find a variety of interesting objects, such as ancient coins, jewelry, or even ancient animal frames.
Some hobbies of metal detecting can even generate additional income, because some of the objects found are sold at high prices.
Although metal detecting can be done by anyone, permission is needed from the land owner or the authorities before conducting a search at a location.
Before doing a metal detecting, you must study the laws in force in the region, including the rules regarding the discovery of historic objects.
Some metal detectors are also equipped with GPS, so you can make a map of the location of interesting objects.
Metal detecting can also be a healthy activity, because you can walk or run while looking for metals, thus helping to improve physical and mental health.
