Welcome to TQ, toadfish! I only hunt in the water so I will leave it to others to answer your question.
Take a look around and hope you will find TQ to be the kind of place you've been looking for!

Welcome to TQ, My best finds are a 1934 walking liberty half dollar, a 1911 V back nickel, and a Civil War Naval Cadet cuff button,. I could go on and on cause I like everything I find. Looking forward to seeing your finds, Happy hunting.

Welcome to the site Toadfish! Lots of good info and posts here. As far as valuable well in some ways that really depends. Some people hunt relics, others money, others looking for rings and such.
For me my most valuable was not even worth that much. I found a 1940's bus token in my wifes grandmothers yard. She was a great lady and I like to think she may have owned the token. For me it is a great item, Beale.
