Oklahoma Metal Detecting

Oklahoma’s unique history – the Five Civilized Tribes, the Trail of Tears, the Land Rush of 1889, the outlaw Indian Territory era, and the oil boom – makes it one of the most fascinating metal detecting states in the country. The variety of potential finds is extraordinary, from pre-contact Native American artifacts to Land Rush era coins, frontier outpost relics to oil boom community remnants. Oklahoma has specific regulations around tribal cultural resources – always research your location carefully before detecting.
