Welcome to the Tidewater Coin and Relic Club website.  TCRC exists for the purpose of promoting the hobby of metal detecting through interaction with members and the public.  We encourage members to work responsibly within the code of metal detecting conduct ethic.  Our goal is to foster a spirit of co-operation between museums, archaeologists, and historical research societies.

​

We educate our members and provide training to lesser experienced members just entering the hobby.  We also strive to be good citizens and be of service to the community, including but not limited to law enforcement agencies and historical societies.

​

We also lobby for or against any pending legislation that would affect our hobby. And, as best we can, preserve our local and national heritage and protect our environment.
