Hello, I am new to the world of metal detecting. Currently I am awaiting the arrival of my first metal detector. I had to go with an entry level machine for now since I don't have alot of experience in this hobby. I hope to learn alot from this forum. Thanks for having me.
 
Welcome from Wisconsin, lots of great people and knowledge on here so bring on the questions and look forward to seeing some nice finds posted. What machine did you go with?
 
Welcome to the forum Patrick. :waving:. If your like the rest of us, once you pull that first little treassure out of mother earth, you'll be hooked for life. :grin:. Good hunting to ya, thumbsup01. And don't for get to post pics of your finds. Eric
 
Actually I had been wanting to get a detector for awhile and my wife ordered me a Bounty Hunter IV. If I do get hooked on this hobby then I can upgrade later. My wifes cousin has found all kinds of civil war relics in our area of Richmond Va. using the same detector. So while it's not the best machine it does seem to get the job done. I look forward to any help anyone can offer. Thanks for the warm welcomes.
 
Welcome to American Detectorist Patrick. :clapping: It is great to have you here with us.

Sounds like you are in a great spot for finding some oldies. :drool: You'll have a lot of fun with your machine.
 
glad to have you with us Patrick :waving: , i'm envious of your location and am looking toward seeing your finds .

Welcome from western MA and glad you found us here. Once you learn that machine you will also be finding the CW relics. Looking forward to you future posts. Be careful, this hobby is very addicting.
 
There is a reason Bounty Hunter sells so many machines, I loved mine and found some nice keepers. Good luck and welcome.
 
Thanks to everyone for the warm welcomes. There is alot of areas around where I live that I hope to be able to find some Civil War relics. My wifes cousin has found bullets, belt buckles, buttons and some other things. That would be ebough to hook me for good!
 
You are in a good area Patrick. I grew up in Manassas, & wished I was detecting back then. Came home to visit in Feb, and went down to my brothers house in Fredricksburg to metal detect his yard. He had built a house on part of the Chancllersville Battlefield area, and found a civil war bullet on the edge of his driveway. :grin: I wish I could have spent the weekend there, but there is always next visit. Good hunting to ya thumbsup01. Eric
