Metal Detector

A metal detector is a handheld or wheeled electronic device that uses electromagnetic induction to locate metal objects buried in soil, sand, or hidden within structures. Hobbyists use them for treasure hunting, finding coins, jewelry, and historical relics, while professionals use them for archaeology, security screening, and locating buried utility lines. The hobby of metal detecting has a dedicated community that searches beaches, parks, and old sites for lost items and artifacts.
