Find the right metal detector at the right price

Whether you’re looking to hunt for relics or just go beach combing or coin shooting, we’ve got the metal detector that’s just right for your pocket. Will you find the next Staffordshire Hoard, the Newark Torc, Ringlemere Cup, the Crosby Garrett Helmet? Are you looking for bullets, axe heads, belt buckles, or just wanting to pick up some lost coins or jewellery on the beach or after a festival? You might even be looking for raw gold or silver nuggets or flakes. Whatever you want to do, finding the right detector is the first step.

Metal detectors are a fantastic pastime, combining the fun of the great outdoors with the excitement of hunting for treasure! People have used metal detectors to find everything from coins and jewellery lost by concert-goers after festivals, to massive hoards of Anglo-Saxon gold. Using a metal detector, you could find ancient artifacts such as bullets and buckles from battlegrounds to truly ancient relics like arrowheads and axe heads. Some finds made with metal detectors date back to Roman times, and are extremely valuable. But whether or not you strike it lucky with your metal detector, a day out in the countryside, hunting down relics both ancient and modern, is a very rewarding hobby, and one which you can share with others in the many metal detector clubs which are springing up across the UK.

Finding the right metal detector is a matter of weighing up features against price. If you know exactly what you are looking for, you can find a metal detector that is optimised to find the sort of artifact that you are looking for. On the other hand, if you are just starting out, it probably makes more sense to buy a general metal detector, until you find the type of specialism that interests you most. A basic metal detector is probably best for when you are just starting out, unless you are the type of person who has to have the top of the range equipment! Our user reviews should make it easier for you to buy the metal detector that will work for you, and avoid you paying good money to acquire a dud.
