Metal Detecting the Treasure Coast part 2

Proven technics that I use when metal detecting along the Treasure Coast. Music by and special thanks to Mr. John James of Hammerhead Lincoln!!

[@johnrapp8816]

You remind me of my dad. He retired to Naples, FL with my mom. He had a hobby of woodworking and loved every minute of it. You are so blessed and I wish you nothing but good tidings. You are at the very top of the list of my favorite beach hunters. I have watched your videos many times and have added a lot to my beach reading skills. Thanks for your service to your country. I spent 3 years in the US Army during the Vietnam era and know that it is not always fun and games, but it was probably the best period of my life. Hard to describe to anyone who has not experienced it. It caused me to grow up and get down to the business of getting an education after I left the Army.

[@terryshannon7342]

John that is probably the nicest complement I have ever received. Being compared with a mans dad is high praise. Thank you and good luck out there. Terry

[@treasurearth]

Fantastic and Fun to watch!! Thanks for sharing so many years of knowledge !!

[@0308valentin]

though I had some problem with sea water It also kzbin.infoUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

[@MetalDetectingDonna]

Had to watch again. So much to learn from the master. ❤️

[@justdosomethingelse]

Sir, this is the best video about beach detecting on KZbin. I'm a newby living and detecting on the beach...!

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you Berto, I wish you lots of luck out there. The treasure is there we just have to get lucky enough to put our coil over it. Terry

[@Nan-1017]

Wow! I love how you explain everything...you’re a good teacher😊

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you Nan you are to kind. To me a lot of the fun is sharing. I wish you the very best of luck. Terry

[@Nan-1017]

Terry Shannon, thank you sir😊

[@jameshabovick8949]

Mr Terry, got your book on metal detecting on the treasure cost, that you for all you knowledge, what great info. Thank you, jim

[@masitaatisam3679]

great video Mr shannon ! every video is one to watch and one to learn . there is just something about the way you teach.. even if you would lie 24/7 , people would still believe you ( laughing) keep them coming , as i , and i am sure that many many more people would apreciate it . such a great hobby and the fact that every hit is a lesson to the next hit makes it worth all the effort. thanks again . happy hunts..

[@terryshannon2991]

Masita you have me laughing. I even read you post to my wife. Thanks for the kind words and good luck. Terry

[@keven6373]

A truly great mentor, Terry you’re one of kind and hard to find. Thank you from Houston & Thank you for your service in the Navy.

[@terryshannon7342]

Thank you Keven, I'm glad you liked it. I am pretty lucky to have found such a great hobby. Good Luck out there. Terry

[@Satya47]

Hi keven6373 and Terry, go with both of You, great video and great hobby as well....

[@terryshannon2991]

I have to agree Steven. I consider myself so lucky to have found something I enjoy as much as our hobby. Good luck. Terry

[@baystateplugflipper7061]

Dream spot to detect, I’m going to make the trip soon!! Great video

[@AndrewBaines]

im fairly new to metal detecting, inly a couple months in, i bought an equinox 800, tried it a few times, then came across your videos, followed your advice religiously. learing how to read the beach, sand, tides and waves. watched your video before i went to the beach yesterday, found 1 ring, and then found a 1892 Queen victoria coin with a gold chain! all thanks to your advice!!!!!!! thanks so much for your videos!!!!

[@treasurehuntingscotlandmud9340]

Love the live digs enjoyed watching

[@ernestvaillancourt5828]

Great vidio, no extra words and right to the the point. Can't wait to get back out.

[@terryshannon3864]

Thank you Ernest, your kind words are greatly appreciated. Good Luck Terry

[@aronbechiom565]

Watched Treasure Coast 1..and now TC 2... you got yourself another subscriber. I too, was Navy.... an airdale, up in Jacksonville. Thank you.

[@SwarmJAG1]

Was out with my dad and son detecting this past weekend at Micklers Landing and ran into a guy that reccomended your channel. Great stuff, i like your videos alot. Keep it up.

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you John, I wish you and yours the best of luck and I appreciate your kind words. Terry

[@Whitebeard1715]

Always enjoy your videos Terry. Happy New year.

[@terryshannon2991]

I have been very busy and I am late answering, sorry. Sam I wish you a Happy New year also filled with much luck. Terry

[@doctorscotland]

Incredibly informative films that have explained the methods much better than I've ever seen before. I live on the coast in the UK, so I'll invest in one of the Minelab Sovereigns, hopefully it works just as well on dry land. I also noted your use of a sand scoop, meaning you didn't need to bend down. Perfect for my knees and back! Thanks very much and good luck to you!!

[@terryshannon2991]

Scott I am so glad that you enjoyed my video and I wish you the best of luck out there detecting. Terry

[@therrienmichael08]

This confirms what I was thinking the other day standing at the tide line looking at the scolloped pattern figuring the height of the sand.

[@terryshannon2991]

Mike you're on the right track, the major key to success is the ability to read the beach. It's really quite simple, just common sense things. Good luck. Terry

[@moonlitacres7130]

Another Great video! Thank you!

[@terryshannon3864]

Thank you for your positive comment. Greatly appreciated. Terry

[@frankboet1]

Glad to know that the legend uses the Sovereign. I use the Sovereign XS-2 Pro and Excalibur

[@me-cq7wv]

Yet again great advice. Thanks

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you once again. For an old guy I'm pretty blessed to be able to enjoy our great hobby. Good luck, Terry

[@coinhound8482]

I rarely hunt at the beach but next time I do I`ll keep your techniques in mind. Thanks for the video.

[@terryshannon7342]

Thanks for the kind comment and the best of luck. Terry

[@maladjusted1116]

Sovereign GT fantastic machine Great tips !

[@terryshannon2991]

I agree Jeff. My Sovereigns have treated me very well and when I'm using it I know it will find what ever is down there. Terry

[@ericsgreyhairwisdom5799]

I built a heathkit detector in the late 1960's and was the only detector around besides geiger counters. I bought a radio shack model in 1971 and the 1st whites 5000d in 1976. Many whites since. I am the foremost authority on metal detecting and this guy seems to know the basics, but.... They always come back with how much they have found and I always come back with how much they missed. He concedes it's due to medical problems. Most rings are lost in chest deep water. The fingers shrink in cold water and the swimming action pulls them off, so following the tide to the surf is a good idea. I found 350 in one day at a lake erie beach that was moved in the 1940's.

[@terryshannon2991]

I congratulate you Eric. I believe it's the fun you have finding it that is the most important. Terry

[@michaelbelfield9859]

Awesome. I am a little further south in Vero Beach.

[@Faith-Ministries]

TERRY!!! You are the Bob Ross of Metal Detecting my Friend. I have a Minelab Equinox 800, I sell all of my Jewelry if I can't find the owner. I'm saving up for the Minelab GPZ 7000 to look for gold. Please don't stop my friend you are AWESOME :-)

[@terryshannon2991]

Faith you just made my day! Two things I thank you for your kind word and wish you the best of luck in reaching your goal soon. From one awesome person to another!!

[@BenzDetecting]

Another great video, Thank you Terry.

[@terryshannon7342]

Glad you liked it. I see from your picture of the escudo that we have the same interests. Good luck out there. Terry

[@janwarriner5037]

Just discovered you and subbed! Your suggestions so helpful! Thank you from Deltona, Fl!

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you Jan and I apologize for taking so long to get back to you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Terry

[@Dugout97]

Terry, thank you, sir. Just ordered me a detector to begin the hobby here on the Space Coast.

[@terryshannon2991]

It really would be nice if we meet up out there sometime. I wish you luck and so glad you decided to give this great hobby a try. Terry

[@mrjoesmith5930]

Thank you for the education. I cam here from Treasure Talk (Fbook). I'm in Colorado , and like to find old mines, etc. on hikes. Would love to be at the beach. P.S.- I've had one shoulder surgery, I could not imagine having five, have fun & good luck Terry.

[@terryshannon3864]

Joe I love your comment and I wish you the best of luck. You sound like my kind of guy. Terry

[@KD0CAC]

Glad to find your channel . Soo many others do not give any info , just " look what I found " travel logs ;( Thanks

[@terryshannon2991]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video, it's a great hobby and I have been very fortunate. Good luck. Terry

You're very welcome Bobby and thank you for the kind words. We enjoy a wonderful hobby and I wish you the best of luck. Terry

[@leafster99]

Awesome video. Thanks for the great tips.

[@terryshannon7342]

You're very welcome. It's just some of the things I have discovered that work for me. I truly believe that a big part of this hobby is sharing. I have made a lot of great friends. Terry

[@VoklstWestie]

good advice, great vid, well shot, very professional!

[@terryshannon7342]

Thank you. I have a friend Jerry that is very good at making videos. I enjoy his friendship and have to admit that he is the driving force on putting the videos together. We make a great team and have enjoyed a lot of adventures together. Good luck Terry

You are an inspirational amazing man 👍🇺🇸

[@kdin1019]

Very satisfying, I will try my luck in local beaches.

[@terryshannon2991]

The very best of luck to you, it's a great and fun hobby. Terry

[@malachipeterson9661]

Hey Terry the first video I saw of you was hunt the treasure coast and I thought you were like my old great grandfather who would lecture you and tell you a bunch of knowledgeable information that as a 14 year old boy I would be like "yeah what ever pawpaw can we just go fishing now" Haha but then I realized hes gone and miss those lectures and you remind me of him so much that I subscribed just here le tires like my pawpaw would give so your going to be my new pawpaw and keep giving lectures keep you the good work 😭😭👋

[@terryshannon2991]

Malachi after reading your post I have to say that I am honored. I will try to live up to the high bar your pawpaw set. Thank you Malachi and the very best to you. Terry

[@kerrygroombridge4224]

Mr Oliver. I have just watched. Terry Shannon he is a veteran treasure hunter. I truly believe that you could benefit from this gentleman’s experience. Please watch. Thank you for sharing. Happy new year. I wish you all the best for the coming year.

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you Kerry and I hope Mr. Oliver takes your advise. Terry

[@TopDingoMan]

Thanks from New Zealand Terry . You are a wonderful instructor . I especially like the creative part where you show various items along with the tone they produce, but your entire video was full of priceless information.

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you Phil for your kind words. The videos are fun to put together and it's comments like yours that make it worth while. Good luck Terry

[@Whitebeard1715]

Terry have you found any more Spanish fleet finds in your back yard from that old wreck site washing up??? 😎👍

[@terryshannon3864]

Yes I had a pretty good year so far, Quite a few rings, a bunch of musket balls, ship spikes, one 1 reale and a ring that predates the 1715 fleet. Good luck Terry

[@sethwolfe4555]

Hopefully I see you one of these days over by the jetty. I moved out here recently on South Hutchinson Island. Thinking about investing in a metal detector. I also like to find Megalodon teeth and arrowheads.

[@theveteran765]

Invest in a Nokta Makro Simplex. It very inexpensive and will out perform detectors costing three times the price! Also it's can be put under the water up to 10 feet! 🇺🇸

[@terryshannon2991]

I don't get down there often Seth but I do detect down there on occasion. I hope we will meet up on the beach sometime. Terry

[@NHbeachmetaldetecting]

super video!

[@terryshannon2991]

I watch your videos also. You're a good man and know how it's done. Thanks for the positive comment. Terry

[@brianclapper3933]

great video Terry, well done. Sorry I missed you last February. I would have loved to gotten out on the beach with you, maybe next year. God bless

[@terryshannon7342]

I hope we can get together also. That is one of the big pluses of this great hobby of ours meeting people and developing friendships. Hope to see you next year. Terry

[@steveosinski645]

Hi Terry, bought your book at Mel Fisher's place in Sebastian. New to the hobby and curious why people show trash like pop tops and other trash in the pictures of their finds for the day. Thanks, Steve.

[@MrBoxing23]

Terry this is one of my favorite videos out there on the Sovereign GT. You are an amazing beach hunter.. My wife runs the Sovereign GT and she's new with it and loves it, she must had watched this video 100 times. We will be in Florida last week in June early July we would like to meet you if you have time to detect.

[@terryshannon7342]

I would like that but I'm a snow bird and back in Minnesota for the summer. I wish you luck however and if you do well let me know. Terry

[@acehmetaldetector395]

greetings from aceh keep looking and hard work will get satisfying results

[@terryshannon3864]

I couldn't agree more. Good luck out there. Terry

[@sethwolfe4555]

Over by the jetty the beach has been a roading so bad we've had these onshore winds that are just eating it away. I would try searching out there the drop-off is about 7 ft

[@terryshannon2991]

I have seen that Seth. I talked to Ed at the Museum and was told that a lot of the roadway there was hauled in and built up but you never know. Terry

[@acapulcoaventuradetectorte9248]

Thanks for the good advice on my local beaches. If you ever want to take a green horn out, I'd be happy to tag along.

[@terryshannon7342]

I always like to meet new people that share our interest in detecting. I'm a snow bird and I'm back in Minnesota for the summer. I'll be back on those beaches this fall however so give me a shout. Terry

[@TheThriftShopper]

I will sir, thanks. Happy hunting in MN!

[@jamesr2624]

Very informative thank you.

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you James for your kind words and I am glad that you enjoyed the video. Good luck Terry

[@drjeffgardner]

I am on the same machine. I assume you have the blue box on your waist? Where did you get the attachment for that?

[@diggerodell7655]

Great videos Terry! Nice pointers to hunting the beaches. Also congrats on your latest big silver find. Saw your photo in the big book at McLarty museum. Been here in Florida almost a week trying to detect the beaches and only finding a few clad and lots of fishing sinkers. Surprised I haven't run into another detectorists yet! Beaches are in terrible shape and surf is really high, but now at least I understand your comments about the mineralization. Tough to got a machine dialed in, but yes, gotta dig those faint signals. BTW, I'm using the CTX 3030 and GPX 4800. The GPX has hit targets like pennies and weighted fish hooks over 2 feet down! Again, thanks for the video and good hunting to you!

[@terryshannon2991]

First off I apologize for taking so long to get back to you. I had some medical issues but I'm back out swinging. The big silver is the goal for most of us but the window to find the good stuff is so short. I have an advantage of living on the beach and the time to really hunt. I wish you luck and one day that coin will show up. Terry

[@wadoman699]

Great video. Love the good advice. Thank you.

[@terryshannon7342]

Thank you Wadoman. We enjoy a great hobby and are blessed to be able to be out there. Good luck Terry

[@peymansheikhchi1548]

You are a legengd! Hands down for you Terry

[@terryshannon7342]

Thank you for the kind words but I'm just a guy that loves to detect. I have made a lot of great friends because of our great hobby and that often is the real treasure. Terry

[@pomeranianserenader9238]

Nice video. Thankyou

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you, I am very glad that you enjoyed the video and wish you the best of luck. Terry

[@smokegonzales2605]

what sizes coil is that?

[@terryshannon3864]

Smoke lately I have been using the equinox with the 10 1/2 inch coil. Terry

[@240x9]

So the scoop makes the threshold hum higher and it stays there till you go over another kind of conductivity. I'm gonna try that.

[@terryshannon2991]

It works and I am sold on it. It's just one more weapon to help put some good stuff in your pouch. Good Luck Terry

[@dakotajennings8009]

Ty! Great song to open the video! What is the name of the song?

[@edmc1000]

Maybe you should look into a harness like they use is Australia to help relieve the weight of detector. We are not getting any younger. Been detecting since 1968.

[@Mikeymonkey1971]

🙏Hi Terry thank you for the informative videos, they are very nice to watch. Iam just starting with detecting and iam about to buy they minelab Excalibur 2 for diving and beach hunting. Do you sir have any experience with this detector or recommendation for a good detector for under and above water ( salt ). Greetings ,Michael van der Blom from Holland 🇳🇱

[@terryshannon3864]

Mike the Excalibur is a great machine, I have owned 3 of them and they served me well. Best of luck. Terry

[@barbaragilbert6444]

Love your narration! It helps me to learn about detecting as I am relatively new to the hobby and swinging a new Minelab. I had used another brand detector but just couldn’t ground balance that particular machine for beaches that were more mineralized and harder packed. I am now subscribed and loving my Minelab!

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you Barbara. We enjoy a wonderful hobby and I wish you much success. Terry

[@granddad-mv5ef]

Hello, Terry. I currently have never detected, and wonder if you would recommend a good first detector for use on the beach. I am about 50 miles north of you.

[@terryshannon2991]

Granddad you have some exciting times ahead of you. I am in love with the old minelab soveriegn and it has served me very well. I believe that you would be very happy with the Garrett AT Max or Minelab has just come out with the equinox. They make the equinox in a 600 and 800 series. I believe the 600 would serve you well. If your ever in my area give me a shout. Terry

[@granddad-mv5ef]

@@terryshannon2991 , Thank you and Merry Christmas!

[@mykakillsv8s]

I have the Garrett AT Max and love it on the treasure coast. Love your videos Terry. Still waiting for my first big find but I know I'm close. I've searched the Jupiter Inlet through Hobe sound a few times. What to do think of that area? I hope to get further north soon. Where do you feel the most underrated area may be? No specifics if you don't feel comfortable sharing but any location tips would be great. :-)

[@BlackjackLover]

Bravo great video indeed

[@terryshannon7342]

Thank you. It's guys like you that make it worth while. It's a lot of fun putting them together. I wish you the best of luck. Terry

Thank you Don, sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. Good luck Terry

[@babyrazor6887]

I'm paycheck to paycheck so it's a bit outta my range...if I could I would. been diggin since 71' n found my fair share. Great Hobby! Highly recommend it, but with a decent machine.

[@terryshannon2991]

Thanks for your comments and I apologize for taking so long to get back to you. Good luck and keep swinging. Terry

[@patriciajones4761]

Thanks. Now I want to come to the Treasure Coast and do this!! Did you find my Senior ring?

[@terryshannon2991]

Your very welcome to detect along the treasure coast. I doubt I have your ring, class rings usually have a name or initial and of course the name of the school so most of them I can return. Good luck. Terry

[@sed6]

Wow! What great tips and video footage. I thought I needed to snorkel or scuba to find lost rings!

[@terryshannon2991]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. We enjoy a wonderful hobby and I believe a lot of the fun is sharing. Good Luck. Terry

[@betuna75]

Your videos are so beautiful Sir the takes are amazing great video editing, Drone im thinking? Great way of showing the wonderful scenery! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@terryshannon2991]

Thank you so much Betty. I have a buddy that I hunt with and he is the expert with the video. I have told him many times that if he can make me look good he is a true artist. There is so many neat and beautiful things to see and enjoy out there if you just take the time to look and enjoy what is out there. The very best to you. Terry

[@dangoe9908]

I noticed your machine had a large head.. How deep have you found items? What is the smallest and deepest most valuable find so far? What has been your best time, Day, week, Month year... How much time did you put into this? and how much value did you find? With all the hurricanes and storms will there be new items washed up to find? Those ocean swells should bring in most anything. Where do you find the high value items? Is low tied the best area and the best place to find the newly washed up items? May I suggest a show about finding the best spots and finding the most valuable items.

[@terryshannon7342]

Dan I use the minelab soveriegn and the sef coil and have had great luck with it. I try to get out before low tide and follow the tides out. I prefer low tides but if we get extreme tides high up can really produce. I have found some high dollar items but i'm in the hobby for the fun of it and don't want to make it a job. we are planning on making another video soon. Terry

[@thejmz]

Really a great video, you're an excellent vlogger!

[@terryshannon2991]

Thanks James, I really enjoy this great hobby of ours. Good luck. Terry

[@minnieearhart221]

Good information! thank you!

[@terryshannon2991]

Thanks again Minnie Terry

[@deenasmusicbox]

By listening to the sound of the detector you can pretty much hear it talk to you, it sounded like it was talking about each type of metal that hit on. Does that make sense to you Terry?

[@terryshannon3864]

It makes a whole lot of sense and the ability to understand that is what gives you that edge. Best of Luck Deena. Terry

[@arthurc1971]

You move so fast...i’m amazed at your finds. This is a great video and very informative.

[@terryshannon2991]

Arthur you are absolutely right, I have a terrible swing but when I do get into stuff I slow way down and scrub the coil over lapping each swing. I just got into some ship wreck stuff last week and had a couple of great days. I have an app on my phone that keeps track of my steps and miles. When I was working this last site I was going so slow that the steps wouldn't register on my phone. That surprised me. Terry

[@larshansen1494]

Hi Terry liked your video and thanks for the info. I would love to come to Miami to try some treasure hunt. When is it best time of the year to come.

[@terryshannon2991]

Lars I'm quite a ways north of Miami on what they call the treasure coast. November through January is when I have found the beach conditions are best. Terry

[@larshansen1494]

Terry Shannon Thanks for reply. But is that also good time for water hunt. i would like to do some scuba as well?

[@mikemathias1597]

Watching your video is great but I notice you still swing your detector high and low not flat on the ground but it doesn't seem to bother you finding lots of stuff. good luck from another detector guy on the treasure coast.

[@bens3067]

Your sovereign tones and threshhold sounds exactly like my excalibur 2. I would guess that its basically the same detector ,only difference is that the excal can go underwater.

[@terryshannon2991]

Your correct Ben they are basically the same and both great detectors. I wish you the very best of luck out there. Terry

[@rapnewyear08]

Thanks, I’m from that area. I don’t live there now. I visit a couple times a year. Been thinking about trying this out. Maybe we could meet up when I’m in town. Where’s a good place to buy a detector??

[@terryshannon2991]

First off I apologize for taking so long to get back to you. I had some medical issues but I'm back out swinging. I have had great service from treasure mountain detectors that deal on line. The owner Ed is a great guy and will treat you right. I would love to meet up some time. Terry

[@kennethbrown8828]

thank you for the great advise terry we can all learn your tips are awesome many blessings to you one quick question what is the deepest good target you have dug at a beach?

[@terryshannon7342]

Kenneth when I hit an area that has a lot of targets or if I'm down to the original sand I really slow down and scrub the coil and have picked up some pretty deep targets 18 to 20 inches. Good luck. Terry

[@kennethbrown8828]

thanks terry i love watching your videos keep them coming

[@rickroddom2473]

Love watching your videos.. learnt alot. Was just wondering what size coil you have on your gt sovereign... love the hobby...

[@terryshannon7342]

Rick I have the big SEF coil and I get incredible depth with it but it's a heavy swing. I really enjoy the hobby and wish you the best of luck. Terry

[@st421]

Terry, no offense but you are lifting your detector up at an angle after you sweep directly in front of you. You're eliminating a good deal of area by doing this. Try to maintain the detector parallel to the ground for as long as you can. This is why you recomment going over a spot twice. You are not doing it right as there is simply no need to re-detect an area if you are sweeping it correctly

[@terryshannon2991]

S T you are absolutely about my swing and I work on it constantly. In my defense when I hit a target rich area that coil is right on the ground. I do however disagree on going over a target rich area the second time at a 90 degrees. Wish you the best. Terry

[@franksandy2145]

What detector are you using today?

[@bobgil3464]

If it makes a noise dig it up. Makes cents!

[@terryshannon2991]

I agree Bob ! I believe every good think I have ever found has come as a surprise . Good luck. Terry

I would love to hunt with this guy on my next vacation.

[@terryshannon7342]

I'm in the Melbourne area and if you see me on the beach give a hollar. Terry

[@elyoakley9234]

He's swinging that thing like a gold club. Low and slow is how you should be swinging.

[@terryshannon3864]

Ely your are 100 percent right on the wild swing of mine I fight it all the time but when I am in a hot area that coil is scrubbing the sand. Good luck Terry

[@luiz.alberto.soares]

Mr Terry, what kind of shoes/socks are you using on the video?

[@terryshannon2991]

Luiz I almost often go barefoot but on occasion I wear a pair of neoprene dive boots but I need to upgrade to something with a hard sole. Terry

[@goldhore]

Nice level swing you have.......

[@terryshannon2991]

I probably have the worst swing out there. I am working on it and in my defense when I get into targets I do slow way down and scrub the coil. With the old sovereign there is a threshold feature that saves my butt. Good Luck and scrub that coil. Terry

Awesome video Terry . Whts your thoughts on the soverign gt ?

[@terryshannon7342]

Sam I have used the Soverign for years now on the beach. It's an incredible beach machine. I haven't tried the new 30 30 but may pick up one of the new equinox, but I have no intention of retiring the soverign. Terry

Thank you Terry for all your insight,and the willingness to share the knowledge you've collected over the years. Watching your videos,and seeing your choice on what machine you tend to lean towards has me out on the hunt for a sovereign. I have a question,and i know it may be subjective,but in your opinion which company makes the best after market coils for the Sov? Cors,s.e.f.,nel or coiltek seem to be most of what i see offered online. Thank you once again,and i hope to see more videos from you in the future.

[@terryshannon7342]

Daniel I love the sef coil and i get incredible depths with it. I can't judge it against the other coils because in beach hunting I use only the sef. Thank you for you kind words and good luck out there. Terry

Is is still illegal to metal detect in the water? Enjoying your videos.

[@terryshannon2991]

Most of the area north of the inlet is open. It's just where they have the salvage rights that the water is off limits. Glad you enjoyed the video.Terry
