Metal Detecting Finds

Metal Detecting Find Database

Our comprehensive treasure database catalogs every metal detecting discovery with detailed photographs, precise What3Words locations, burial depths, and unique reference codes. From Victorian coins to military relics, each find tells a story of British history waiting to be uncovered.

Types of Treasure Found

Our finds include military artifacts (buttons, badges, shell casings), historical coins (pre-decimal currency, Victorian pennies, Georgian coins), jewelry (rings, earrings, bracelets), vintage buttons and buckles, and other fascinating relics. Each discovery is photographed and documented with find type, metal composition when known, and condition assessment.

Recording Your Metal Detecting Finds

Proper documentation is essential for metal detecting. We record exact coordinates using What3Words, burial depth in inches, soil conditions, detector settings, and signal strength. This data helps pattern recognition for future detecting sessions and contributes valuable information to the treasure hunting community about find locations and depths for various artifact types.
