I recently ran a survey among metal detectorists asking just one question: What is your biggest problem or question with regards to metal detecting? I would like to thank everyone who replied. Briefly, I have analysed the results as follows:
Getting search permission - 25%
Finding (productive) places to search (research) - 24%
Which metal detector to buy - 8%
Metal detector limitations - 8%
Archaeologists/establishment - 8%
Interference - 6%
Commercial - 4%
Ethics - 4%
Junk - 4%
Technique - 2%
Coils - 2%
Depth - 2%
Finding raw gold - 2%
Cleaning/conservation - 2%
Over the next few posts I will be addressing most of the issues raised and giving you some tips to help overcome your metal detecting problems.
