... Kędzierski said he wouldn't have found the medieval hoard without the help of a local priest. In November 2020, Kędzierski visited Słuszków to learn more about another medieval treasure — one of the largest coin hoards ever found in Poland, which had been unearthed in 1935.
The exact location of the 1935 hoard had never been recorded, and Kędzierski hoped to locate and photograph it for an upcoming book. However, during his stay, Kędzierski happened to talk with a priest, Rev. Jan Stachowiak, who shared a little bit of gossip about the possible location of another hoard.
After using a metal detector to locate the general area where the hoard was buried, Kędzierski and his colleagues dug up a small trench in a cornfield in the village. There, he found a ceramic vessel that held the medieval riches. "The vessel itself, buried only 30 centimeters [nearly 12 inches] under the ground, was completely preserved — only the lid/the upper part was missing," he said...

6,500 medieval coins and rare gold rings unearthed in Polish cornfield | Live Science
Thanks to SuperRick for that link.
One hoard led to another. I call it clumping. Birds of a feather flock together. Where there is one coin, there very well might be another. Where there is one piece of gold, there is a better chance there is another. Where there is one hoard there is a good chance there is another. Everything from atoms, to molecules to planets and universes clump.
Follow up on rumors. Talk to people from the area or who might have useful information.
Then metal detect, but also go beyond that if you can. Blowing, trenching, or sifting can help turn up more than metal detecting.
When I post articles about finds, they will usually provide tips on hunting strategies or techniques. Those tips might not always be obvious, but they are usually there if you read between the lines.
Take a look at the rings shown above. Notice how those old rings are made.
I'll follow up on that in future posts.

A team of archaeologists from the Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia (INAH) have announced the discovery of a bas-relief depicting an American golden eagle (aquila chrysaetos canadensis).
For the Mexica, the bird of prey was closely related to war and sacrifice, while being considered a nahual of the sun and, therefore, also of its tutelary god, Huitzilopochtli.
The relief was excavated at the foot of the Templo Mayor (the main temple of the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan in present-day Mexico City), in the central axis that crosses the ‘chapel’ of Huitzilopochtli and the monumental sculpture of the goddess Coyolxauhqui...

Who decides where and when, or even if, you'll be allowed to metal detect? Who decides if the beaches will be renourished? Who decides who will keep the treasure you find? Who decides if a historical or archaeological item belongs to the state or federal government or another country?
All of those questions have to do with politics. You might not like politics, but it has a huge impact on treasure hunting, metal detecting and your life in general. Some governments don't allow metal detecting at all, except by archaeologists.
You must stay informed and involved if you want to preserve your liberties and your hobby. You will recall at the beginning of the Covid pandemic, the beaches were shut down for a while, even though the beach was one of the safest places you could be. Our esteemed leaders do not always know what they are doing, even when they might think they do.
I applaud one Democrat that recently spoke out. Here is what she said.
The mob who stormed the capitol to try to stop Congress from carrying out its constitutional responsibilities were behaving like domestic enemies of our country. But let us be clear, the John Brennan's, Adam Schiffs and the oligarchs in Big Tech who are trying to undermine our constitutionally-protected rights and turn our country into a police state with KGB-style "surveillance" are also domestic enemies—and much more powerful, and therefore dangerous, than the mob which stormed the capitol.
