    G'day from Australia

    Hello All,

    My name is simon and i'm from Melbourne Australia. I have been detecting for awhile now and have my father to thank for getting me interested in this hobby. i currently own a minelab Excalibur 800, Garrett Ace 250 and will soon own a Gti2500. i'm currently in my 2nd year studying Archeaology here in Aus and love finding relics and 1800's coins. We too have a site like this one here in aus its called australian metal detecting and relic hunting, great site thumbsup01. Well cant wait to see what you guys/gals find around your great country and i'll be showing off what we have down under

    cheers simon.
