Metal Detecting Old Coins You DON'T Find Very Often

Best signal I've hear in a long time! Our good friend John invited Mark and I to a few spots to give him a few tips on his new Metal Detector. John just bought an Equinox 800. We tried it at 3 different sites. Started at an old farm field that dates back to the mid 1700's. Then we scouted a new permission. We ended the day at a hay field we've been to many times. It still gave up the goods. We found a few very old coins. All of them are pretty rare if you ask me. I've only seen a few of them found EVER.

Dude, my bad from earlier! But hell yeah TGIW! I never miss it!

[@jeffreylockhart6444]

I so like looking at these shows and the effort you make in snow and heat to detect and dig up finds. I grew up in a Colonial area in Virginia and NC and only did surface hunting while bottle or relic hunting in fields. One day walking along with a friend, clear as day as pretty a coin as could be found in a late fall soybean farming field, there sat a small for sure silver coin. Old looking, dime size,not US not anything familiar. Picking it up saw it was a 1787 King George sixpence. At the time in the 80's said this has been in the soil here close to 200 years! The soil was sandy loam and had kept it guess could call it preserved. The county I lived in back then was from 17th century and thought if this is here, more may be here. To detect and dig takes work and patience and a drive too

I love the nox. Best machine made for the money as of now. Nokia is releasing a new machine soon though, too.

[@shawtknight]

If the $1000 Nox is the best machine for the money I guess I am not gonna get into this hobby anytime soon because that is ridiculous.

[@1LWiLNY]

@@shawtknight I mean the 600. It has the same depth perfmance as the 800. You are really paying for the gold mode if you buy the 800. If you want a good starter machine the Nokta simplex+ is the best you can get under 300 dollars.

[@shawtknight]

@@1LWiLNY Thanks for the info, I did look up some of the different detectors but I don't recall seeing the Nokta, thanks again.

Love your channel, been watching for years, but I have to say, without the rest of the "boys", it has lost a lot of the humor and interesting conversation among you all. Nothing wrong with Muck, just tired of seeing nothing but boots. Again, love your content, but it was the Hoover Boys that made your channel unique. Hope they return soon. Keep posting, I'll keep watching.

[@thehooverboys]

I'm with you. Wish the boys could get out more

[@executivesteps]

I agree. Exactly what I’m thinking.

[@michaelpotis2766]

@@executivesteps I agree that while the others are a great addition to any episode, Kurt makes everyone a focal point and does a great job with whomever he's with. I'd like to see more B rad, but Kurt keeps me coming back. Thanks for lighting the fire in me to go detecting Kurt.

[@cdenver]

I get ya too, still good though; maybe we could rename it to The Hoover Boots? LOL!

[@executivesteps]

Michael Potis I actually bought a metal detector based on watching the Hoover Boys. My house is on an 18th, early 19th Century tannery site. Finding neat things all the time. My point is the more coils on the field - the more finds. I’m wondering if there isn’t “bad blood” so to speak. If so, too bad. They have a great mix of characters. Hollywood Central casting couldn’t have done a better job putting together a cast of characters.

[@kylenunes9401]

I am just starting to get into the hobby of medal detecting but I just cannot seem to find any keeper finds boxes that would be big enough.

The cheap tackle boxes at Walmart do a pretty good job for me. They have many different sizes and configurations of compartments. Good luck! ✌️

[@88997799]

Just wondering… Have you ever checked local parks that used to be farm fields? Ya get modern stuff like change a gold and silver rings plus the old stuff. Just found 1901 $0.50 half dollar in a new park build on farm field just few miles from my house. Farmer wouldn’t allow metal detecting but I hit it when the park construction started. Just FYI… 👍

[@petehoover6616]

It's kind of a trip to see how much you're like other Hoovers. Same jaw line, same chin (a Hapsburg chin) and there are Hoovers with that hairline. One of the neatest similarities is the subject interest. Other Hoovers can be either sharecroppers or history professors. We have at least two of those.

[@thehooverboys]

Very cool. Nice to meet you Pete

[@petehoover6616]

@@thehooverboys did you know Hoover is a Jewish name? (In Shreveport LA the Reform Rabbi used to be Rabbi Robinson so I wouldn't worry about it) but you DO need to worry about Hoovers accidently marrying each other because the family is large: and odd for US jews they are Bavarian in origin and have been in the US since before the Civil War, which makes them earlier Jewish immigrants than almost anyone else you'd meet in a synagogue. Because of that I share a common ancestor with another Bavarian sorta Jew; Ludwig van Beethoven and like him I am going deaf. It's a good idea as you reach middle age to carefully check your hearing. Two of my brothers refused to get their hearing checked since the condition is so debilitating they are afraid to face it; so their wives left them. Unlike my (six) younger brothers and sisters I was (like Beethoven) exposed to aerial bombardment in my 20's. I don't have Windows Messenger since I got into trouble with the Russians. You're a Hoover. You understand. But we have a cousin (and I'm sure we're cousins) who does a whole lot of family research for a hobby. Could you try to Windows Messenger her and ask her how you think we're related? If you point to ANY of your videos and she sees even a tiny portion of one she will know what the issue is and its resolution. You look a helluva lot like the rest of us, you act a helluva lot like the rest of us, and you're the same size shape and color. Her name is OOPS! That should probably not be publickly available.

[@tomfrazier1103]

Tomorrow I'll go dig in the war years. Last week I dug a Manchurian Provinces silver about 1/2mm smaller than dime, only 89% or 70% silver. A 1941 Nickel with all steps visible. A copper Willamette University letter opener. A common 7 oz. Kauluwela Soda Works bottle.
