Where to Find Buried Treasure with Your Metal Detector
While in a sense we’re talking about “buried treasure,” we’re not talking about pirate chests (although that could happen!). We’re talking about treasure that was buried on purpose or by accident.
An often-overlooked opportunity to find buried treasure is in your own back yard. Years ago, when people didn’t trust banks, they buried their money in their back yard. Some of them died without letting anyone know it was there. If you live in an old house, check the yard carefully as well as the walls.
And then, of course, there still is unfound pirate gold. It is said that pirates buried their treasure under beaches and in coves. Do some pirate research and target areas where pirate ships might have landed but then never returned to collect their loot, as well as areas where pirate (and other) ships sank.
