WINNER #1
Wisconsin’s copper culture has been a hot topic for treasure hunters recently.

Derived from copper mines, spears were created to hunt wildlife on land and in streams. Metal detectors are the perfect tool to find these spears and various other copper items from this ancient civilization dating back four to five thousand years old.

My favorite find for January 2011 goes to Larry F. of Green Bay, Wisconsin.

His wife bought him a GTI 2500 for his birthday last November. As always, the best place to learn a new machine is on your own property. After half an hour of searching with his new Garrett detector in his own backyard, Larry discovered a nicely shaped copper spearhead!

Congratulations Larry, keep searching! You may find more. As my father Charles Garrett has always said, “You can find treasure even in your own backyard.”

Larry WINS a Garrett PRO-POINTER®!
Next month Vaughan will give away a Garrett Pro-Pointer®! You could be the next winner!
