[QUOTE="oldtimerROB, post: 573803, member: 8947"] Moved to Belarus after living in Australia for 68 years and finding a few large nuggets.Plan to detect the 1812 battlefields in Belarus and Russia so a big step up for me and on a higher level.Living in a small village which for miles around is virgin ground for detecting including beaches at a lake and large river.I expect I will find a few kopeks though.Our village was a German fuel dump during the war and hope to find some Deutschmarks. As to what got me started I bought a yellow Sandman in 1980 and used to go up to Wedderburn with the wife and kids for weekends,we bought a canvas tent 12X9 with enclosed large annex mosquito and snake proof and I used to walk miles cross country exploring the hills and gullies.It took me 6 months to find a small specimen and I shelled out heaps for petrol,so I was not getting rich but rather it it was the thrill of adventure like when I was a boy and explored Merri Creek.
