Metal Detecting Trip To England
It Was an Interesting Learning Experience
Hanging Around the City for the Rest of the Day
The City Park
The trip to the city of Bath was interesting and educational in terms of learning Roman history. But I was thinking about searching the field next to the Swainsons' house once more. Well, I did not have a chance to do more metal detecting due to the heavy rains that hit the area during the last two days of my staying in the UK.
I wished I had more time available for treasure hunting as I was thinking about Roman hammered coins and artifacts. If it was not for the rainy weather, I could probably find something interesting at the site of the medieval Abbey.
Oh well, a one-day metal detecting experience was still fun to me! It was important to remain positive and grateful even for a small given opportunity. My exciting metal detecting discoveries were about to happen soon in Russia, but, at this moment, I was not aware of coming treasure hunting experiences and was just excited about beginning a new Metal Detecting season.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
In January of 2020, I started a one-time fund-raising campaign in attempt to accumulate enough money to buy a simple but reliable 4x4 vehicle. My old 4x4 car (made in 1995) had faithfully served me for 10 years before it eventually went beyond repair last October. Without a 4WD, I will not be able to get to my hunt sites and test-plots hidden in the remote wooded areas inaccessible by a regular car.
Unlucky for me, those sites are the only locations available and suitable for my field-work which results in informative articles you can find on this website. For the past 10 years, my usual field-work has consisted of field-testing the latest metal detectors and accessories, experimenting with some of them, and devising new effective search methods that meet the requirements of the new metal detecting reality.
Before my car died, I managed to finish a couple of interesting detector-testing projects which will be covered in my upcoming articles. But other equally important projects that I was working on were not completed and had to be postponed until the Spring 2020. I hope that this fund-raising campaign will help me get a decent 4x4 by then so that I will be able to resume my work and to write more new articles, tutorials and guides based on data gathered through testing and experimentation.
If you find my website useful and would like it to provide more essential info for you and other detectorists worldwide, please consider chipping in $5, $20, $50 or whatever you can afford to keep MetalDetectingWorld.com growing in 2020. I promise you, it will be money well spent. Thank you.
