Here's my tip for you, grab a scoop and pin-pointer next time :) I bet you will visit this beach multiple times. It is a treasure trove. It looks like your tip is an indication of shape more than metal content. You had a brass and aluminum target give you the red indication. These are non-ferrous metals, but they were irregular in shape.

Great tip - thanks Dan 🤣 I’ll definitely be going back! I have a lot more testing to do with regard to this trick. The item I thought was aluminium was actually a hinge of some type (identified after some cleaning), with an iron component. The screw I believe to be brass, but I could be wrong…

I find a lot more than others on the beach here in the uk due to coverage off the beach. If I adopted this trick, I wouldn't move more than a few hundred yards. These tricks are all well and good for a KZbin video but they are simply not practical A FEW seconds, dig or not, move. Simply

I covered about 200m of the beach on this day. Granted it’s slower in some ways, but seems to help with those deeper targets.

ive found using the electrolosis on silver its best to just dip in the bath no more than 30sec at a time just untill u loosen the grey deposite on the survice that way you dont get the removal of silver that puts all those horrid dimples on your coin,the more you leave it in the bath the more silver is eaten away,when its loose use bycarb powder paste to clean try not to clean till shiny with practice you can leave some patina on the coin.
@coilsandcoinsdetecting3 сағат бұрын
Good advice. I actually like the grey patina that 92.5% silver coins develop over time, but those crusty 50% silvers take a lot of effort to clean sometimes…

In my opinion, it’s just common courtesy. People, dogs, horses walk/run on the beach too, and I’d hate for my infilled hole to cause someone else an injury. My approach is to leave the ground/sand as close as possible to the way I found it. Happy Hunting!

Do you have the settings for US Coins???
@coilsandcoinsdetectingКүн бұрын
Unfortunately not. All you need to do is test each coin to see what the target ID is, and set the breaks accordingly. I believe most of your coins are clad (except for older silver dimes etc), so they’ll have quite low target IDs.

Something iron must have corroded right along side it, and stuck to the surface of the coin. Electrolysis cleaned most of it off, but you can still see where it was unfortunately.

So i just finished your video... That ground was awful :) I'd be so confused! So my question is, ifyou used threshold to gage ground/trashy levels and then set your detector sensitivity and swing speed/recovery speed, could you not then just set your iron volume right down... (I have another detector aswell as a minelab) I'm not to keen on the constant noise of threshold but if I was gaining alot... either depth or target detection then I would bare through but I'm just thinking alot on ways I can set up detector and see if ways to get around the noise.
@stephenmaas8775Ай бұрын
I thought threshold gained depth? As a newbie wanting to get as deep as I can, I was thinking.. would it be possible to turn up sensitivity and threshold and turn the volume right down or onto vibration and then read the target ID's when i feel the vibration. Is this even a possibility and what would be the pro's and cons. Cheers!👍
@coilsandcoinsdetectingАй бұрын
Interesting idea! When I used the Nox800 I’d have threshold set to about 6, and use it as an aide when trying to find “busy” ground with high target density, usually for one house sites in the bush etc. Now that I use the manticore, I must admit that I don’t use threshold at all. In my experience threshold didn’t really get me any increased depth, although at the beach it could sometimes help me find targets that weee right on the edges of the detectors range. Let me know how your experiments go! Happy hunting!
@adzoutnabout888Ай бұрын
Good results mate. I was surprised how high that penny read in the water. Thought it was silver as well. I have been looking for locations around Sydney, but a lot have been built over, or the massive amount surface rubbish is masking the good targets.
@coilsandcoinsdetectingАй бұрын
Those older Brit Pennies and half pennies are pure copper, so they can definitely sound like silver coins at times. I was definitely hoping for an old florin though. Old ground is very hard to find, although if you look for old parks in the outer suburbs and towns you could do pretty well. It’s also worth considering rocky river edges and coastline, as coins tend to get caught in the rocks and don’t move too far. Good luck and happy hunting!

@coilsandcoinsdetectingАй бұрын
A good question. So many good targets do not sound solid because the target is on edge, or near something else that’s partly masking the signal. If you only dig the most solid signals, you’d be missing a lot! Odd shaped targets like badges, buttons, and other interesting relics nearly always sound a little bit scratchy.
