Some discoveries become something much bigger.

After finding an Italian soldier's World War II dog tag while metal detecting in England, months of research led Artur to an unforgettable journey to Italy to return it to the soldier's family.

Sometimes the greatest discoveries aren't measured by what we recover, but by the stories we help bring back to life.

Congratulations to Artur for making this remarkable reunion possible.

Second search. A find to remember.

On just his second outing with the Vanquish 560, Martijn van Hoof uncovered this gold hand ring in the Netherlands, believed to date between 1200–1400.

A remarkable piece of history and proof that every outing has the potential to surprise.

Not your average signal.

Detectorist Shane Moxhay uncovered this remarkable Roman lead ingot, measuring around 70cm in length, in Wiltshire, UK.

Bearing the inscription VESPASIAN AVG, the ingot is linked to the reign of Roman Emperor Vespasian Augustus.
An incredible discovery made with the Manticore.

Matthew T's cracking result with the GPZ 8000.

The main nugget weighed in at 53 grams, but the story gets even better. About five meters away, another signal produced these two smaller pieces from the same hole.

The larger of the two was sitting around 200mm deep and actually gave a soft signal. The smaller bit was lodged in the sidewall of the hole at over 100mm deep, yet the 18" coil still had no trouble letting me know it was there.

Just goes to show that when you're onto gold, it pays to chase every signal and clean out every hole properly. Sometimes the patch has a few extra surprises waiting nearby.

Gold like this is exactly why confidence in your detector and coil combination matters.

Detector: GPZ 8000
Coil: Z18 Coil

A great day for the detecting community in Cyprus.

We were proud to support the Cyprus Metal Detecting Society's 4th Annual Metal Detecting Open Day, bringing together detectorists, families and supporters from across the island.

It was fantastic to spend time with so many members of the local detecting community and see the continued enthusiasm for the hobby.

A special thank you to Alex Costa and the team at Biomeca for their support throughout the event.
