First thank you so much for your service Bill. Second the yellow thing is a curler for when you get a perm

[@Playing4fun2]

Thank you Bill for your service I enjoyed the video you to crack me up thanks again for all the cleaning up to you that you do God bless you both stay safe I’ll see you on the next hunt by

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you Rosa... it was a great experience. Seems like we are doing more cleaning than finding cool things lately but that is the way it goes some times.

[@ausfox8794]

I’d just finished watching the park search with the Simplex when this one popped up straight after. Great timing. Always fun to get out and swing the coil.

[@DigginSoCal]

Nice.... timed that just right...lol. Thanks

[@devarskinnee8760]

Definitely,Mr. Bill the bill man, thank you sir for your service too this country, your show is addiction,the good kind! Testing different machines help on picking a new one,or first time buyers. Hi lucky. God bless guys love brother devo.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you very much. We do try changing things up. I think I may add the Legend and I am on a waiting list for the Manticore. The hype makes me think it could be a good detector. Time will tell.

[@rebeccal2771]

My black kitty, Mary ,was dumped at Wal-Mart and i brought her home. Friendliest and softest kitty ever.

[@DigginSoCal]

That is awesome... I like it when Buddy decides he wants to be close... as you know, you sure can't force a cat to cuddle...lol

[@paulaj6]

Thank you for your service Bill!

[@DigginSoCal]

You are welcome.... thanks

[@kevincarther]

Thanks for your contribution Bill. The park hunt was much better. you can't always pick your beach finds. Cheers

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... yeah, we are struggling with finds lately... I think partly because it is cooling down but also the beaches here are really getting hit hard with people detecting.

[@aliciadanna2616]

Thank you Bill for your service and the video. Christine that yellow curler is used for a perm

[@DigginSoCal]

You are welcome.... I tried to tell her...

[@tuber22221]

Yes, thank you for your service to our country, Bill! I enjoy your videos. Your stick-to-it attitude. Awesome job!!!

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you Micheal.... been a rough few hunts but it is the way things go.... keeping at it will pay off

[@TeamBlackDiamond]

Priceless seeing Bills face. When he asked wait what size is that other shirt? Had me laughing. 😅

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah, you guys set me up.... but thanks....we really appreciate them. I can't wait until we set up a patch board. We are waiting to figure out how and where we want to do it.

[@TeamBlackDiamond]

@@DigginSoCal yes Bill this was in the making for a few weeks. Ever since you found that ring at the beach and kept a secret until wrap up.

[@DigginSoCal]

@@TeamBlackDiamond hum. Now I need to figure out a nice joke for Christine. Maybe I could bury something that would gross her out. Lol

[@TeamBlackDiamond]

@@DigginSoCal you need to hind a dime in a wine or champagne cork. Make a nice cut with razor blade and stuff it inside. She will go crazy wondering why a cork is setting off the metal detector. If you choose to pull off this prank you must delete this message 15 seconds after reading.

[@slyoldfox7874]

Sweet hunts and the British Thing is a Keychain Fob. Nice Cross Pendent and the parks are giving more then the beach by the looks of it. Buddy is a beautiful Kitty . very Cool mail call. Like the T Shirts. Stickers sure do have a shine to them. See you two on your Next Adventure. Awesome Stuff

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks.... Yeah, we don't seem to do well at Long Beach. Maybe that is why we had not been there in a long time...probably forgot how it was. Thanks re: Buddy. He is a sweat cat for sure. Also, was really nice to get the shirts and stickers.... always a treat.

[@dawnthemetaldetective3083]

Thank you for your service Bill! The piece with the UnionJack on it is a broken key chain.

Thank you James. I have great memories from my experiences learned in the US Army.

[@Looter8TreasureHunter]

Those “wobbly” signals sometimes end up being silver. Gotta dig them all! Cool cat! 🐈‍⬛ blackdiamond is an awesome channel! 👍👍🇨🇦

[@DigginSoCal]

I tell her but she will have to learn about signals because she can be stubborn. I agree about blackdiamond. Was so cool of him to send shirts!!! The cat is growing on us. So darn cute

[@scotreece5795]

Good to see the both of you .

[@aliciadanna2616]

Very cool mail call. I was wondering about the video for Wednesday. Again Bill thank you for serving. Christine loved the orange shoes.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you... I was going thru withdraws not being able to hunt... was like the cat looking out the window

[@flamingomtn]

Christine, he's right about the curler. It's the kind women used for home permanents.

[@DigginSoCal]

I told her... but don't believe me... lol

[@stormysadventuresindigginw1505]

Missed you two on Wednesday happy to see you back! Thank you for your service bill stay strong

[@DigginSoCal]

You are welcome... yeah, we had some major rain which we def needed.

[@Zonalonadingdong]

Heh... Funny that Bill, considering his hair style, would know that was a curler... which it was lol. Thanks for the early morning entertainment :)

[@DigginSoCal]

Right.... i do know some things...lol

[@dmcdonell3062]

You need to get down to the wedge. 😊Thanks for the fun episode.

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah, we really should. All the beaches here are being hit so hard and with the cooler weather things are slowing down.

[@dmcdonell3062]

@@DigginSoCal I bet the beaches are being hit really hard. I’ve been tempted to do a road trip down south. I think I’m going to hit one of the local schools in the Arden area today. Good luck!

[@stevewilson4071]

Christine is exactly right with the simplex and the tones. It tells you more with the tones if something is good or not then any other detector I've ever used. The best thing to do is to take a couple minutes put some coins down and then put some junk like bottle tops pull tabs and then do some jewelry and listen to the different sounds they make because they are different even though you might be getting a strong signal. You almost don't even need to read the numbers with the simplex just listen to the tones.

[@DigginSoCal]

Wow, great info... thanks Steve. She does like the Simplex so I am sure she will be using it more and more. I just got her the smaller coil. I think she will like that addition.

[@stevewilson4071]

The simplex with the smaller coil is a really good combination and hard to beat. She's going to enjoy it. Just turn it on ,ground balance ,Park mode and you're done!

[@philipcallicoat3147]

Been really missing you both...🧁🧁🌮 Thanks again for your service to the Nation,Bill...🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌹 Do you two ever run into Robert Ferguson??He hits HB a lot... He's a good guy. 🤓

[@DigginSoCal]

You are welcome and I have ran into Robert once. He seemed nice in person. The rain really slowed us down last week.

[@ethanleon8934]

and thank you both for not acting like your finding thing that you put there like hoover boys

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... we will always be true to the hobby... I know someone who always finds gold rings in the same places we detect...hum????

[@darrellbrixey5341]

Thank you guys for another awesome video

[@AJudd8]

Good morning Bill and Christine. the yellow thing is a perm rod. thay roll several of them in your hair. poured perm solution on the rods. long story short there on school perm rods. I enjoy watching your videos. enjoy your Saturday.

[@DigginSoCal]

Well, I told her and she doubted me... I don't think I could use them but maybe one day if I could stand letting my hair grow...lol. Thank you very much

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Nice hunt you two

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... had a nice weekend out and about

[@Downeastwaves]

Hello! Another fun hunt!

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks...was a really nice couple days after we had so much rain.....

[@williampaxton871]

I'll say one thing for you guys, you certainly bring variety to your videos! Detecting, humor, a cat and dessert! Too much fun, keep the videos coming!

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you very much William. We do mix things up a bit. Just enjoy sharing our experiences!

[@juneyshu6197]

Its a perm curler! The blue shirt looks great on Bill!

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks.... It was nice of Robert to send us the shirts...

[@benjiher8918]

Good morning You guys are awesome and funny love your channel As always thanks for sharing

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you very much Benji

[@edwardheida2919]

Enjoy watching your vids and your finds, even if there not so remarkable. Makes me feel, “not remarkable does not only belong in my domain”. Hit 2 beaches here in Oxnard/Ventura right at the long well defined cuts. A few dollars in change, a broken up battery cable and other assorted metal trash. Also the trash picked up as I went along. Only one toy sand shovel from amounted to a full bag of trash. Thinking of doing my own KZbin ‘Finding beach trash with Ed’ 😂

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... you should get a channel going. The nice thing is our hunts and yours are the reality of detecting. I have seen some videos that make me scratch my head with what they claim to find.

[@CBL138]

Crazy the man with now hair knew what the curler was. 😂

[@claudeladow2334]

A bottle opener can be a treasure, when you need one.

[@DigginSoCal]

Oh yeah... emergency supply equipment...lol

[@codependentk2888]

Sorry Christine, Bill is right, the yellow thing is a hair curler. Great video, I needed some California sun today, it's 35 degrees here today, in west Tennessee.

[@DigginSoCal]

Wow.... 35... brrrr. Thank you and yes our sun is back... I think our lows in the morning are mid 40's to low 50's

[@cieradriver3940]

Hi Buddy! Cute new mascot - thanks for saving a stray!

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks and buddy says hi too..... Yeah, it is actually hard to keep up the pace with two weekly videos but we do the best we can... We really don't wanna just throw something together vs good content. We decided if we have to cut a day here and there it would be a Wednesday. That picture was from 1984.... wow

[@jimrussell6567]

The wobbly ones often turn out to be jewellery…. Dig em’ 😃

[@DigginSoCal]

I keep telling her to dig it all... She is convinced it is trash until it isn't...lol

[@annetteessman8827]

Nice video...cute kitty...I got a shirt and multi stickers today in the mail also from Team Black Diamond... Awsome shirts... Now...I need to add one of yours...❤️

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... Don't tell anyone but send me an email... [e-mail]

[@helensmith2839]

A wobbly signal could also be a broken circle such as a ring or earring so i would definitely dig them if i had a detector have fun guys.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks Helen.... I told her...

[@lauracassell144]

Thank you for your service Bill I know day late dollar short lol

[@DigginSoCal]

All good...you are welcome

Hi Bill I metal detect in England I find a few of your coins I have a silver Half Cent 1860 from a ploughed field and one cent from a beach 1859 great videos

[@DigginSoCal]

Very cool.... good luck on your hunts

[@adventuresunknown1013]

Christine, Bill is correct, it’s a perm rod hair curler. I have had loads of those things in my hair when my hair was as long as yours is now.

[@normajefferson3977]

It’s a perm rod Christina. Bill was right you put it in your hair and then perm solution. Different colors for different waves

[@DigginSoCal]

Nice... Bill got something right...lol.

[@silversurfer3202]

😲 Amazing to see you using to Nokta Makro Simplex 😲!!!! (It would be interesting to hear your honest opinion of this machine)... 🤔.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks. I am going to take it to the beach while Christine is working. It will give me some real time with it and I will also do another grass hunt with it... then I think I will have formed a good opinion about it... Christine really likes it already

[@terryblais9128]

Good video thanks.

[@evacorsaro2807]

The yellow thing is used for perms. You put hair stands & a piece of thin paper in the yellow curler.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks.... I know it was a curler but did not know it was for perms...

[@mauriliozamora6627]

Nice hunt guys, make sure you get that dollar coin that Christine found for your collection. How cold is it at Socal, Christine was dressed as if she was living in Wisconsin? LOL, I also have a black cat, her name is Jetta and she's seventeen years old. My American bull passed away two days ago, she was thirteen years old, God I miss her. Happy hunting my friends!

[@DigginSoCal]

We have about 60 plus dollar coins now...saving them all. It is still hitting 70's during the day and dropping to mid 40's at night. 17 years is a long time to have a cat but that is awesome.... I had a lab for 13 years as well... so sad the day we put her down so I feel your pain. I still miss her.

[@lauracassell144]

Christina the yellow thing is a perm rod curler for hair

[@nursesmitty9503]

Yes, the yellow thing IS a curler. The kind they use to give perms with

[@captnse]

Thanks, Bill, for your service!! 💪🏼 I guess you didn’t hunt the berms in SB yet?? I’m sure other Th’ers have already if they were able ?? I know the park you went to….the park to the south of that park had lots of old coins…a few barber dimes and some Indian pennies, along with the usual mercs/rosies and wheaties…but, it has been hunted hard by so cals top deep coin hunters over the years…not sure if they’re still allowing the homeless to stay in that park…there were quite a few of them years ago.

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah, that park had been hunted hard for a long time and I am sure there are lots of silvers still there. I have a little reservation about hunting there because to get to the silver, I feel I would need to bring the big shovel and I don't know how the city would feel about that. I guess I could seek permission but not holding my breath. There are a lot of homeless in the area and as a result much more trash in the grass. We did not make it back to SB but when we were there the had not built a berm but were really moving all the sand around. The totally took away the old berm????

[@captnse]

@@DigginSoCal you don’t need a “big” shovel….just your Lesche hand digger….that’s the only digger I ever used to get to the silver strata layer in all the parks I hunted…..I wouldn’t waste your time asking to use a bigger shovel in any park around here….no parks and rec dept would ever allow the use of a larger sized shovel….I must admit, though, my buddies are still using the long handled diggers in our local parks for years now, but it’s not because they want to dig deeper…it’s because it’s easier on the body to dig a plug standing up…I just think it attracts too many looky-loos and makes you a lot more conspicuous digging plugs while standing up.
