Manticore Vs Equinox Rare Token?? and more Diggin' Duo Metal detecting Early Oct 2024

[@Token_Trader]

Hi, your mystery coin is actually not a coin at all, but a US Civil War Token known as a store card. The obverse has the merchant information “John Quinn/small eagle/Grocer/ Cor 26 Sts./Lexington Av.” The reverse has the text “IOU” 1 Cent “Pure” to the left of the 1 and “copper” to the right of the 1. The merchant is from New York City. It is catalogued as Fuld NY630BG-6a and is a rarity of 4 on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 is common and 10 is unique. An awesome find from the 1861-1865 period.

Wow!! That’s gotta be the most detailed feedback we’ve ever gotten. Very cool and thank you so much. There is nothing like having people explain mystery finds.

Nice bunch of finds Mike 👌 HH and take care. 🙂

[@DigginDuo]

@@capecoddiggerzmetaldetecti5718 Thanks and you too my friend. Driving to Boston Monday , I may stop and dig

[@roballison3281]

14:50 drawer pull. Cool digs !

[@DigginDuo]

You know, you’d think I’d know that by now by how many I’ve dug. Thanks friend

[@jimthompson9992]

Young man, you have definitely dug some real "what's it's" there.... they puzzled me for sure! And that Yanks reference...I'm sure you really meant "next year Mets"!!! 😁👍 Great finds though! Always got a kick out of finding those "good luck" items... especially with the old wheaties pressed in them. Thanks again for sharing your hunts with us... really do appreciate it! Take care, be safe and, as always, God Bless America! 🇺🇸

[@DigginDuo]

Mets just slowed down at the end. They couldn’t be beat in July and Aug. I was rooting for them for a Subway series. Thanks again Jim. Emma and my wife will be on the next video, a good long one

[@jimthompson9992]

@@DigginDuo Awesome if it had been a "subway series"! Looking forward to hearing those sassy replies!

[@mikeycod7377]

Wow Mike some awesome finds congrats 👍 I think I hit it "oh it's just a rosie" 🤣🤣🤣 My cool finds for this week were bunch of wheaties, 1901 & 1897 IHP's, 1932 buffalo, 1946 rosie, 1926 merc, 1901 & 1912 V nickels, and a old Show World Center token from NYC👊👊👊 I finally broke down and ordered The Legend Pro pack and another coil, to help me on some of my sites, I love my Vanquish but, I needed something to help with unmasking...

[@DigginDuo]

That’s a good week Mike. Hope you do better with the new kit. Thanks again friend

[@wicked_digger]

Another great video of amazing finds! That piece is definitely the broken head of a valve for a motor. Who finds dollar coin spills? Has to be you 😆 so wild. Love the patina on the Indian and the watch winder is so awesome! That token is super cool! Wicked happy hunting brother! 👊

[@DigginDuo]

@@wicked_digger Thanks Chris. I wonder how old that valve is. Glad you stopped by again my friend and very cool seeing you dig with Jason , Steph, and Brad.

[@digginhistoryoncapecod7506]

Nice hunts my friend, very much enjoyed the side by side Minelab comparison. I have both and feel I get just a bit more overall performance out of the Manticore.

[@DigginDuo]

@@digginhistoryoncapecod7506 I didn’t favor the Manticore at 1st but then again, I did that with the CTX when I switched to the Nox. Taking my time but I’m starting to get the hang of it. Thanks again friend

[@craziedigging4590]

Hey Mike and Pat. Pat Congrats on your first Kennedy Half Dollar. Still pretty cool. Mike love the Religious Medallion. Congrats on the Dollar Spill. Love the Shield Nickle, Big Time. Congrats on the Wheaties, 1888 IHP, Buffalo Nickle, and Silver Rosie. Still looking for a Watch Winder. Love the Token and Good Luck Piece. Very Cool. Take Care my friend Crazie Digging. Hope the Family is doing great

[@DigginDuo]

@@craziedigging4590 we’re good Roy. Next video is with Emma and my wife. She killed it. Thanks again

[@craziedigging4590]

@DigginDuo Right on looking forward to it Mike

[@purnellrichardson3716]

Thanks for comparison we need more of those I got both machines nox with coilteck is hard to beat

[@DigginDuo]

Thanks friend. Wish I could’ve done more but it takes up so much time. Something I have little of these days.

[@dirtlifedetecting]

I knew you were going to say it! In fact, I said it in my own mind right before the words came out, "Hawaii-5 0 !!!" LOL

[@DigginDuo]

Haha, we’re old. Thanks again my friend

[@hardyakka6200]

You deserve those good days detecting after Emma tried to knock your block off.

[@DigginDuo]

That pitch was a little close. You think she did that in purpose? 😝

[@hardyakka6200]

@@DigginDuo mate you was just luck there was a fence between that ball and your noggin.

[@CavemanDigz]

You gotta turn the sensitivity down on the manticore. If you run it high like that it becomes unstable. 21 sensitivity is the sweet spot. Trust me you will get plenty deep.

[@davemiller8215]

lololol.....when he was trying to actually hear a target in that shit filled park with the sens at 30!!!!!!! it was clearly the ass end//bad echo side of 2 iron targets in proximity....that were fusing together and giving you the 'ol 2 wrongs make a right signal!! i move my Manta Ray sens in the 22-25 area depending on how urban the search area is and no higher!!

[@DigginDuo]

I finally figured that out after this video. I was hoping to pull some deeper targets. It’s very stable at 23-24 for me. Thank you very much

[@DigginDuo]

@@davemiller8215 I was thinking I’d pull some deep targets but I finally figured out that you don’t need to have the sensitivity that high. I recently lowered it to 25 and it’s amazing! Thanks for the feedback

[@davemiller8215]

@@DigginDuo high SENS is like high beams on the car; the dirt being akin to fog in many cases based on the clutter of debris there and//or heavy mineralization in certain areas......either way, you need to always adjust the SENS to where the machine is predominantly stable and it can "see" through the fog

[@DigginDuo]

@ You know, I know that much with other detectors, I was like I said, hoping to find deeper targets without realizing the machine is like any other when it comes to sensitivity. I guess I was being a little arrogant thanks very much for all the info.
