Bio
Growing up in country South Australia, the beginning of my metal detecting adventures took place after being gifted a Minelab Sterling on my 10th birthday. I was out and about searching for coins and relics every chance I could get, finding plenty of pocket money along the way! A few years on followed my first Gold Detector, The Minelab XT 17000. It didn’t take long to get a dose of gold fever, because on my very first outing I found a beautiful 12-gram Nugget! With 28 years of experience operating Minelab Detectors, I have discovered so many great finds - including my biggest Gold Nugget weighing in at 5oz. My rarest coin, the 1923 Australian half penny was found using an Equinox 800. My passion for detecting is driven by my love for exploring the great outdoors, and the thrill of the hunt for hidden treasures that are just waiting to be discovered.
