Even though Andrei and Igor were disappointed a little, they also made some interesting finds.

The results could be better or worse, but this metal detecting raid could not be done in any different way. In such events, when a group of strangers gets together for metal detecting, there are as many opinions as many participants in a group, but the majority always rules.

This trip was educational for me because I finally had a chance to explore the region of Central Russia and enjoy its fresh air, beautiful scenery and the magnetism of old Russian towns and villages that still preserve tranquil atmosphere of the past. Plus, some of my finds were quite interesting and worth of coming.

My next treasure hunting adventures would take place in taiga forest on 65th latitude in northern Russia, in the area full superstition and mystery. But that would be another big story... (coming soon)

Happy Hunting!

ANNOUNCEMENT:

In January of 2020, I started a one-time fund-raising campaign in attempt to accumulate enough money to buy a simple but reliable 4x4 vehicle. My old 4x4 car (made in 1995) had faithfully served me for 10 years before it eventually went beyond repair last October. Without a 4WD, I will not be able to get to my hunt sites and test-plots hidden in the remote wooded areas inaccessible by a regular car.

Unlucky for me, those sites are the only locations available and suitable for my field-work which results in informative articles you can find on this website. For the past 10 years, my usual field-work has consisted of field-testing the latest metal detectors and accessories, experimenting with some of them, and devising new effective search methods that meet the requirements of the new metal detecting reality.

Before my car died, I managed to finish a couple of interesting detector-testing projects which will be covered in my upcoming articles. But other equally important projects that I was working on were not completed and had to be postponed until the Spring 2020. I hope that this fund-raising campaign will help me get a decent 4x4 by then so that I will be able to resume my work and to write more new articles, tutorials and guides based on data gathered through testing and experimentation.

If you find my website useful and would like it to provide more essential info for you and other detectorists worldwide, please consider chipping in $5, $20, $50 or whatever you can afford to keep MetalDetectingWorld.com growing in 2020. I promise you, it will be money well spent. Thank you.
