2019 Metal Detecting Finds Log. I decided to create my first “Finds Log”. I want to keep track of everything I find in 2019 and catalog it all here. Most of the coins and relics I find will be from using either a XP Deus or a Minelab GPX 4500. By click the links will take you over to Kellyco Metal Detectors where you can learn more about each machine.
If you want to keep a log book of your own here are a few metal detecting log books I recommend that you can pick up from Amazon.
For reviews of my equipment compared to other metal detecting gear check out my “Reviews” and “Recommended Gear” sections of this website.
