Mexico is well known for its hidden treasures. Besides the famous ruins of Tenochtitla, an ancient Aztec city, or Chichen-Itza, a historic Mayan city, there are a lot of gold and silver treasures buried deep under the Mexican ground. The search for the lost treasures was a big adventure for one of our customers too, which was worth the trouble. The treasure hunter detected an ancient treasure chest with valuable contents by using the eXp 4000 ground scanner and 3D metal detector. A highlight for every treasure hunter!
