I can't wait to hear what the Mormons say about your find.
Called the only number we could find for an area Mormon church and the number was out of service. I contacted a pastor friend of mine and he was not aware of any local denomination of Mormons. If there were initials or a name or anything on this thing I'd put a little more effort in finding a home for it but for now it's going on the back burner.
This one?

I think a metal detector is similar to an exercise bike. The exercise bike gets used for a bit and then becomes a cloths rack. The metal detector gets used until the operator get tired of digging up bottle caps and gum wrappers. You could probably put an ad on marketplace stating that you would like to buy one. You might get a great deal.

... and false positives. The detector triggers, you dig and find nothing and scanning the loose dirt just dug up, doesn't trigger the detector.
