Anybody in Detroit area got a metal detector my family can borrow?

My Ma was recently moved into a nursing home, and even though we moved her stash of silver coins into a safety deposit box long ago one of my brothers wants to check the yard just in case. I think it's a wild goose chase, but whatever.
Please send me a direct message if you have something we could borrow.
Thanks

Sorry to hear about the move, but based on an even remote suspicion that she might have buried some loot, I like her style. I have not done anything like that myself, but I wouldn't put it past me.
you might try googling local metal detecting clubs. I belong to one and we offer free services for things such as this.
Good luck!

If you ever need a custom made shiv I have cousins in the area that can be of help
Good luck with Mom. Check with Wingsrule he might be of help

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
That would be fun.... wish I lived closer..... Let us know how it comes out.... Cheers, RickO
Go to Facebook, look up FMDAC

Good luck, they probably will not loan a detector, but may do it for fun

Equipment rental yards, around here at least, always have metal detectors available. The price is very reasonable. Around $25 per day, or less. Maybe not the best quality but for what you need one for I think it's your best bet.
I think we have the question taken care of. Thanks to everybody that replied.
