Default Magizine preference?

Hello to all,

I am very new to this hobby, hopefully will get my detector Thursday. My question is what is a good magizine to suscribe to? There are a few out there, it seemed the most popular to be out of the UK. I guess I would be more interested in one for hunting here in the USA. Any suggestions???

Lost Treasure and Western & Eastern Treasures are really popular. Personally I prefer Western & Eastern butI'm sure you'll like whichever one you choose.

Welcome to the site! Very glad to have you on! Congrats on the new detector! What kind are you getting?

Yea the 2 main ones out there have been mentioned. One other comes to mind. American Digger. I have read a few articles out of it and was impressed, Beale.

American Digger the best historical, metal detecting and relic hunting magazine in print!
