  1. Thanks for the metal detecting tips. The good thing about metal detecting, besides the thrill of the hunt, is that you always have the chance of finding a $1000 ring or some old silver coins. I prefer relic hunting at old foundations and other locations. I like doing the research and then finding hidden locations that have never been searched.

    You can also sell relics on the internet, and actually do pretty well. I discuss that on my website, and in my book Almost Free Money. You can even sell metal junk as art supplies for surprisingly good money, and craftsmen also buy the old square head nails that you can find hundreds of at foundations. If you can find pre-WW2 “low-Alpha” lead, this is also highly sought after and is very valuable – even more valuable than silver.

    • Thank you Eric for those great comments and good luck with your future metal detecting trips.

      Best regards.
