Thread: Good Day from Maine

    Good Day from Maine

    Hello to all, I am fairly new to the forums and to detecting in general when I hear folks say they have been doing this for 20-30 years. I live in the Oxford Hills region of Maine and use a V3i (when I get it back from the upgrade) and the Prizm V. I have found mostly relics and a few coins. Metal Detecting Maine is where I met a few folks from this site and thought it would be smart to register. You folks have written some great articles and answer questions in detail. Thank you all for what you do for this addiction.
