Hunting for treasure with a metal detector is an exciting adventure. You never know what you may find while looking around in unsuspecting places. The UK is a vast area to search, and you are likely to find dropped jewellery or coins while scanning. Here are a few of the best areas in the UK to find hidden treasures.
Staffordshire
There have been dozens of treasure excavations in Staffordshire in recent times. These findings include a hoard of rare coins and Anglo-Saxon artifacts. These findings are rare and highly valuable. There is a good chance that you could find something just as valuable while exploring Staffordshire. Fields and open areas are your best shot.
Lake Windermere
This gorgeous lake is the largest natural one in England. It is in the famous Lake District National Park, and situated on a sprawling and green area. Plenty of grass and open fields make it easy to use a metal detector here. You may get very lucky and find a dropped coin or something even rarer.
