Good honest video of detecting Blackpool beach, it reminds me of the hours and hours i spent on there with my equinox 600, in fact it made me laugh when you found the first 20p and i said out loud solid 16 moments before you said it 😂 the light switch looks at least ftom the 60's probably earlier, i don't think modern one would last five minutes in the sand do you? And the percussion caps as you call them were .22 rim fire shorts, the did a longer case called LR or long rifle, but the ones you found and why theres so many is they used to fall between the boards on the pier where the shooting stalls were in their hundreds, they can be a nuisance, but you can soon ID them with the nox and leave them , they are called "short" because they are, you didn't need much charge to shoot ten meters max. Anyway thanks for the reminisce. Matt

hey up Dan, we were walking along the blackpool sands on 9th sept and saw a guy detecting , he had just found a lovely silver shilling, approx 2ft down he said. We went detecting at lytham st Annes on the friday and saturday and found 3 toy cars,(which we gave to a little lad nearby) approx £3.91 ( a £2 nugget and a £1 nugget) in new money, about 20 bottle tops and a comic relief nose badge from 2017, a truly spectacular weekend..!! Love the videos, keep going, a hearty handshake from Cuddleydale Halifax

Ayup dude thanks for watching. Yes I've heard of a good number of pre decimals coming up around Blackpool I'd would have been well happy with a silver shilling. Its not a beach hunt without a toy car. Stay lucky dude

I have been a mudlarker since I was little really, and my first find was on this very beach! I would have been about 9,my dad took us one day and there was a guy who was detecting all day.As i was heading to play in the sea with my dad and sister, i found a gold mens wedding band just sitting on the top,so my dad thought it was hilarious the poor guy had missed it with the detector and i found it by eye! I love finding treasure, i also found a womens victorian ring as a child stuck in mud just by eye too!

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Lovely story i know what you mean as a kid my eyes would be glued to the ground in the hope of finding lost treasures my only wish is that i got into this hobby when i was a kid. Thanks for watching all the best for the new year and i hope you find something amazing

[@PaulaSmith-vg9ez]

@DIRTDIGGERDAN I wish exactly the same, my knees tell me no alot now lol,but hopefully gathering some buddies in west yorkshire together very soon to get back out there! I planned to go this weekend but unfortunately my favourite fields and bottle dump are currently under water right now!

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

[@futurebleeps]

@@DIRTDIGGERDAN it was a total pleasure sir 🍻

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Not long now till the next adventure

[@ajsimpson1981]

Just come by your video great stuff enjoyed it and subbed 😊

[@julianmarsh7993]

The percussion caps look like .22 rimfire shorts, popular shooting range on arcades when the UK was a free country.

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

That makes sense thanks

[@julianmarsh7993]

If you want to comment on them with 100% accuracy, you will is a singular small rectangle indent on the rim or edge, as that is where the shock sensetive detanator material lies and where the firing pin hits and leaves an indentation, a true hunting bullet in LR form, but when stubbed right down to a fraction of full cartridge length it made a great gallery firearm, a real bullet gun, very popular in the 20's to the eighties when sea side towns started to die. @@DIRTDIGGERDAN

[@D.Smagnetfishing]

cool video.. subbed,,, im off to blackpool detecting on 17th.. wanted to see wat i may get lol..

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Thanks and good luck

[@si_blacksheep]

Grid vid Dan. I’m in Preston so Blackpool beach is on my todo list. Have you any info on where can and where can’t? Also what’s that digger you use called? Might have to get one of those. Cheers 👍

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Think pretty much anywhere is far game around there and it's just called a sand scoop pretty essential especially on the wet sand

[@seanking6409]

Would my minelab x terrain find these sort of things?

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

I hear the x terrain is pretty good on the beach so it should do

[@ronkendall2849]

Back on the old pinpointer Dan?

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Hi Ron no this was shot before detectival so I still only had the mock carrot

[@turtleofthenorthshore6427]

If you were not working, and lived walking distance to the beach so no petrol costs, do you think if you did 8 hours per day, you could keep gettin maybe £40 or £50 over a sustained period by new coins being washed up with each new tide? Or do you think it couldnt be done on a regualt basis?

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

You could definitely add to your income over the summer months. I have thought about you could do it once retirement comes around but you would have to be on a busy beach. Its something I would do.

[@turtleofthenorthshore6427]

@@DIRTDIGGERDAN Yeah, thanks, i like to think about getting out the rat race. I am hoping you would do winter wild camps as well.

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Me as well hopefully I will and hopefully it'll be a snowy one

[@metaldetectking3844]

Beach settings for equinox 600? I'm heading to Blackpool beach in the morning

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Beach mode. Recovery speed 6, sensitivity as high as possible but probably about 23. Horseshoe on. Dig everything over a 0 will a sharp tone and good luck 👍
