🏺 Inspiring the Archaeologists of Tomorrow 🏺

Recently, we joined the Young Archaeologists Club at Weston Park Museum in Sheffield for a day focused on something we care deeply about — bringing archaeology and metal detecting closer together.

Young people learned about the Treasure Act, the Portable Antiquities Scheme, the Bronze Age, responsible detecting, and then got hands-on with Minelab detectors to recover and record finds.

📖 Read the full story:

There were 16 young people in that room. Future archaeologists, detectorists and historians.
The future of our hobby and our heritage isn't built on arguments. It's built on education, curiosity and working together.

⚠️ SOUTH STORE TEMPORARY CLOSURE ⚠️
*This will be our South store only. Our Scunthorpe branch will remain open as usual.

Unfortunately, due to a family emergency, we have had to temporarily close our South Store.
With reduced staffing available, we're unable to open the store today. We are hoping to reopen as normal tomorrow 10am - 12pm and will keep everyone updated as soon as we know more.

We'd like to sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding during what is a difficult time.

The good news is that our website remains fully operational, and our warehouse team is continuing to dispatch orders as normal. Any orders placed before 1pm today will be sent out for next working day delivery and should arrive on Monday.

If you need something urgently, we can also arrange Saturday delivery at an additional cost. Please give our North Store a call on 01724 845608 and we'll do our best to help. Now is a good time to shop as today we started our Father's Day discounts! Take a look on our website!

Thank you again for your patience and understanding. We'll provide further updates as soon as we can.

There’s no universal setup for the Minelab Manticore — what works for one detectorist, on one field, won’t work for another.

In this clip, our experts break down why copying internet settings can actually hold you back — and why learning your machine properly is what leads to real finds.

With guidance from Paul Cee, Luc Van Assche, and Mark Lawrie.

⚡ The New Minelab Vanquish 60 Series ⚡

The Vanquish 60 range has arrived, and it’s shaping up to be a brilliant choice for beginners who want strong performance without too much tech, tweaking or faff.

The range includes:
✔ Vanquish 360
✔ Vanquish 460
✔ Vanquish 560
✔ Vanquish 560 Pro Pack

Prices start from just £259 for the Vanquish 360 and go up to £529 for the 560 Pro Pack.
https://crawfordsmd.com/metal-detectors/minelab/minelab-vanquish

Think of the older Vanquish 40 series, then make it waterproof, improve the target IDs, search modes and discrimination, add an internal battery, and you’re somewhere close to what this new range offers.

Simple to use. Easy to learn. Packed with proper Minelab performance.

For anyone starting out in metal detecting, the Vanquish 60 series is a seriously exciting option.
