Congratulations to our International Favorite Finds winner Gabriel B. from Europe!
Gabriel had his best day metal detecting since starting 5 years ago. He said, “Not even in my most beautiful dreams did I expect to find this.” He used his trusty Ace 150 in a forest when he got a strong signal. He discovered 7 bronze-age gold bracelets dating back to 1200 B.C. The bracelets weigh 130 grams and are considered the greatest discovery ever made in his county and one of the biggest made with a metal detector in the country! He writes, “My old Garrett made me so proud, thank you guys for your awesome machines.”

Congratulations to our International Favorite Finds winner Daniel S. from Europe!
Daniel S. was competing with his friend on a local permission where he had previously found Roman history. Today, he was using his AT Pro when he got a loud bang on his detector. He writes, “I thought I’m not that lucky and that it would be a gold gilded button, but then I felt the weight of the coin, and with a gentle rub, a stunning golden stater was in my hand. I had a little celebration, and my year was complete. It was a full gold stater Gallo Belgic A stater from around 100 B.C.”

Congratulations to our International Favorite Finds winner Tomasz S. from Europe!
Tomasz's passion for metal detecting began as a kid when he got a ACE 150 for his birthday. He has been treasure hunting actively for the past 5 years. On this day, he took his Apex out and hunted with his metal detecting group. He describes his dream find like this, “A small number of signals didn't indicate what happened after nearly 30 minutes of searching. It was the first clear signal, so I took it up with a bit more enthusiasm. After digging a hole, a beautiful silver coin fell out of the ground. At first, I couldn't believe what had just happened, but it was already a fact, I found my dream, I found a silver Roman Republic Marcus Philippus Denarius from 56 BC. Dreams are meant to come true, and the Garrett Apex metal detector helped me with this and I'm sure it will make many more of my dreams come true!”
