Hi!
After lurking around this forum for some time, I finally decided to get registered to this wonderful community. I'm a 21 yo norwegian student living approximately a 1 hour drive from the main capital Oslo. My username "Dovregubben", or "The mountain King" refers to a poem called "Peer Gynt" written by the legendary norwegian writer Henrik Ibsen, all though it's probably internationally most associated with the musical pieces "The hall of the mountain king" and "Morning mood" by composer Edvard Grieg.
I bought my first detector 14yo, but didn't get hooked before I found my first silvercoin, a 1686 norwegian "2 skilling" this summer. This wonderful find led me to further investment in a Fisher F75 and a Garret "carrot" pin-pointer which have yielded further great results through many hours of swinging in the fields. I'm mainly detecting for coins, but love discovering other historical objects as well. People have lived in scandinavia since the stone age, making this small country the perfect place for discovering lost history through beeps and TIDs.
I'm looking forward to be a part of this awesome fellowship of treasure seekers to exchange knowledge and make new acquaintances.
Much love,
Dovregubben.
