My name is Isaac, I am 15 years old, and I have been metal detecting for over a year now. I am from Northern Virginia and swing the Garrett AT PRO. I think I'm going to enjoy this place. Nice to meet y'all!

Welcome aboard Isaac. Like Tony said, you got plenty if history up there. I grew up mostly in Manassas, but didn't think about a detector back then (mid 60's - mid 70's). Can you believe it. Prime Civil War grounds and I was out fishing???? Every time I head home to visit I hall my AT Pro with me. My brother has a house on the edge of the Chanclersville battle field down in Fredericksburg and have found a mini ball in the two hours I had to detect his yard. Can't wait to see some of your finds. Good hunting to ya.
Just one more Beep!
Thanks! Gotta love finding something that's 100... 150... 200 years old or even older!
Glad you are able to make some finds at your brothers place! Don't you just love the feeling of a Minie Ball?
I'm glad to be here, seems like a nice, friendly community. Hope I am able to metal detect for that long!
Thanks Dan! I envy YOUR area of the country, there's just loads of history up there. I go to Connecticut three times a year, and I try to metal detect every chance I get! I've pulled some of my best finds in Connecticut!

Thank you!
I'd LOVE to hunt with y'all when we are up in your neck of the woods. I'll give you a "heads up" a couple weeks prior! It's been only a dream for me to be able to hunt a cellar hole, thank you for this wonderful opportunity!
