WELCOME TO THE HOME OF S.M.T.H. ON THE WEB

The Stone Mountain Treasure Hunters metal detecting club is dedicated to the preservation, promotion, and protection of the hobby of recreational metal detecting. The club is made up of people around the metro Atlanta, Georgia area.

Currently, our membership includes approximately 40 members of all ages, ranging from those with over 30 years of experience metal detecting to the newcomers in this fantastic hobby of treasure hunting. Our treasure hunting club activities include monthly meetings, social hunts, and competition metal detecting hunts for silver coins and prizes. Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings in Duluth, Georgia so come on down and get in on the action.

It is our desire that you will find our treasure hunting club website informative, educational and entertaining. Our metal detecting club membership is mainly interested in three faucets of treasure hunting: these are coin-shooting, beach and water hunting, and Civil War relic hunting. We also have members interested in gold prospecting, bottle hunting, rock & gem collecting, and Indian artifacts.

Stone Mountain Treasure Hunters club would like to extend an invitation to anyone interested in metal detecting to attend one of our monthly treasure hunting meetings. Visitors are given a "goodie bag" with product literature from the various metal detector manufactures, sponsoring metal detector dealers info, a metal detecting magazine, and treasure hunting promotional items.

Most meetings will include a presentation from one of the members or a guest speaker on metal detecting equipment, target recovery methods, how to clean and protect your finds, historical information research or other treasure hunting related topics.


Kellyco Offering $10,000 Reward for 1st Interview with the Finder of Fenn’s Treasure

Fenn's Treasure Possible Location from Kellyco Metal Detectors .jpg

Kellyco Metal Detectors is offering a $10,000 reward for the first exclusive video interview with the treasure hunter(s) that located Fenn’s Treasure. For a decade, the location and contents of Fenn’s Treasure remained a buried mystery. Then, on June 6, 2020, an unidentified treasure hunter found the bounty. It was confirmed by Forrest Fenn, the original burier, that they had discovered the famed cache. And although the treasure hunter(s) are now rich off coins, jewelry and gold nuggets, Kellyco Metal Detectors wants to make them $10,000 richer and inspire other treasure hunters in the process!
