Paul Edgerton, Founder of Detector For Metal

My name is Paul and I am the founder of Detector For Metal, a dedicated resource for metal detecting enthusiasts seeking to uncover historical treasures and connect with the past using the latest technology. I am passionate to pass on my knowledge to the next generation to shape the exciting future of the hobby.

Throughout the years I have developed expertise in beach hunting, gold/silver prospecting, and relic hunting. My passion for metal detecting goes beyond the thrill of discovery—it’s about preserving history and sharing the stories of those who came before us. When it comes to research, my methodical approach has led to numerous key learnings, including mastering detecting in high-trash areas, dialing in my tones, and some great coin shooting techniques.
