Texas Metal Detecting

Everything really is bigger in Texas when it comes to metal detecting – the state’s 268,000 square miles hold Spanish mission gold legends, Civil War sites, frontier outpost relics, outlaw caches, and some of the most compelling lost treasure stories in North America. Texas’s diverse regions each have their own historical character, from the German immigrant communities of the Hill Country to the Spanish colonial south and the frontier forts of the west. Rules vary significantly by land type and location – always check before detecting.
