Metal detecting

[Chuck72]

Are there any metal detecting fans here?
I received a metal detector as a present about 8 years ago. I've never found anything unusual or anything of value though.
It is fun to search for things, but it beeps so often, I just get confused, lol.

The most I've found was a really old coin. 
They say that a good place to use a metal detector is around old outhouses.
Other than that, there are no great places around here. Just mountains, fields, and cows.

Suggestions are welcome!

Here's a list of good places to use a metal detector at:

1. Beaches and Coastlines 
2. Parks and Recreation Areas 
3. Old Homesteads 
4. Battlefields 
5. Ghost Towns 
6. Campgrounds 
7. Abandoned Buildings 
8. Construction Sites 
9. Farmland 
10. Schoolyards

I have a metal detector. At first it was exciting but then it kinda wore off.
Nowadays I only use it when I lose something.
I've never found anything of value even back in the day when I played with it often.
