Garrett Metal Detectors

With frost still in the ground here in Canada, Tessha decided to test a small area of our early-1900s homestead property. Just 20 minutes into the hunt, her VX9 locked onto a clean 71 VDI. A quick check with the Garrett Carrot and out popped an incredible surprise... a U.S. Great Seal button found only 75 yards from our house!

She writes, “In just an hour and a half, I added four buttons and a 1921 Canadian cent to the pouch, but the best part was having my husband witness the whole recovery from the shop window before I ran over to show him. Not a bad way to kick off the season with frost still in the ground. Here’s to many more great finds with the VX9 in 2026!”

James H. couldn’t leave the house, so he stepped into his backyard for a few casual swings with the detector. His home is from the 1800s, so he searched this yard more times than he can count and honestly expected nothing. Then came a low 60s VDI signal… and out popped a beautiful 14k gold ring!

Just goes to show, the next great find could be hiding in the place you least expect👀
