Metal Detecting Urban Legend? Is WET Soil Better For Finding Treasure?

Its Merrill from Metal Detecting NYC. Do you really find more treasure when the ground is wet? This video will test that theory in the perfect setting; a 1600's house that has a lot of history. The traditional wisdom is that the ground is more conductive. When the ground is more conductive you can go deeper with your metal detector and find more. RIght? Well....we will see.

Hi, my name is Merrill Kazanjian. New York City is an amazing place to go metal detecting. We have lots of parks, colonial history and great beaches for beach detecting. I have gone to all five boroughs of New York City To Metal Detect and beyond. I also currently own 22 metal detectors. I want to have the best and I want to help you choose the best as well. Below I will showcase some of the playlists on this channel:

In my opinion, that's why this is the best metal detecting channel... Because talking. I'm grateful that I can learn something.

[@ericsmathe]

I agree.

[@richardkunkle9924]

@@ericsmathe Me too. I agree fully.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

THANK YOU!!! HONORED!!!!

[@emperorphil2547]

as a CNA i am really happy you are taking care of your dad. you are a good son. wishing best of health to you and your family.

[@johnhamlett8414]

I will say that yes, with my eqx800 I find more in wet soil than dry soil and I think it has to do more with depth.

[@treasurearth]

Love this one !! I agree, detecting for me is the same, as I am also taking care of family currently. Appreciate you sharing and fun finds. Thanks as always.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@stephenmaas8775]

​@@MetalDetectingNYCKeep making your videos! You're the only guy I enjoy watching even when you're just talking I enjoy! I tell everyone to look you up! 🎉 I've learnt so much and you just seem like a nice guy anyone could get talking too! I could see you being a great teacher! 😅

[@paulevans5455]

Those bushings could be off old Canvas tents (military) , also called eyelets.

[@whosiewunkle1993]

I agree. They are also called grommets. If the hotel had awnings that might account for why so many have been found in the area... the fire would have released many of them to sink into the ground. ⭕⭕⭕

[@jeffmeltzer2121]

You are correct in TN We find them in encampments they are to tents, and smaller ones are to ponchos .Mainly union camps.

[@MickTrice]

Hey Merrill, great video as usual mate. Mick here from Duchy Metal Detectors from England UK. Just to let you know It’s a William 3rd Sixpence 1600’s. Well done 👏

[@northforkseaanddirtfishing5754]

Yea man. I love hunting super trashy spots when its been really dry. Way better target separation. I also like farm fields after rain cause you dont miss anything. Good video! Thanks!

[@tinx1463]

Hi Merrill I moved in with my father to look after him about 5 years ago.Sadly he passed away last May (91) but i have great memories and don't regret a second of it (Very hard work tho)..But i will say take all help that's offered and don't make the mistake that i did by letting the situation completely take over everything .I know from following your channel that you have a great family and they will be of great help to you .Happy hunting teach and the very best of luck to you.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Tinx Im so sorry to hear about the passing of your father last May. Thank you for the kind words of encouragement.

[@KUHLFinds]

Always a pleasure watching your videos. I never get bored cause I’m always learning something. That padlock was very cool.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Glad you are enjoying the show!

[@echobeefpv8530]

I learned a ton with this video. I'm in Winnipeg, Canada, so metal detecting season is done, but I plan on watching all your stuff, and learning as much as I can. Thanks !

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Glad you found it helpful! Thank you for the support!

[@brownjessea1]

Glad you aren't going anywhere Merrill! Since getting into this hobby, I feel the same way! There's no way I ever wanna quit!

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

I NEED it in my life. Its that simple. Metal detecting has enlightened me. Thank you!

[@markdoehrman5134]

Wet soil is great,,but also makes deeper type nails small or big sound even better too,,still worth it to eek out a bucketlister.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Yes I wish I touched on iron in this video.

[@georgeeberle1119]

Hey Merrill thanks for the outing and the education ! Great Channel ! G

[@flyrock2]

excellent finds Mr! Some of my best old coin finds have been 1 way signals.

[@bottomfeeder12]

the padlock was my fav that you dug. I love finding those and keys. Good finds man

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you!

[@etcetera662]

I'm ordering my first detector whenever it goes on sale next week. The Legend, on your advice. I've wanted a detector since I was a kid and I'm in my 30s now. I'm unreasonably excited, it's all I can think about. I'm on the west coast but I hope someday I can go out detecting with you, you seem like a great dude!

[@jeffinphx517]

Join a club if there's one in your area.

[@sktech76]

Fully agree! Ive found stuff in wet soil (especially at night) with the manticore that it missed during the day in dry soil! I asked this question in a fb detecting group and most scoffed at it. Im a scientific person and i believe there is ample evidence to prove that moisture affects detecting ability. Thanks for the video!

[@MetalDiggr]

Lancaster has had drought conditions since June... it's been very tough detecting. I'll get a signal that shows it's deep, I dig and find the target 3-4" down.

[@Whadaa72]

My nox 800 with a 6 inch coil can find stuff my buddy missed with his dues 2. I've pondered manticore or dues 2 but the nox still produces

[@Metal-Detecting-Texas]

Full moon at night seems to produce better signals for me on the beach but it may just be a coincidence.

[@richardjados3258]

Great content Merrill love the channel .. I believe those round things being call bushings are actually canvas tarp grommets like from big canvas tents . Hope this helps

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you so much for the input on that. I depend on the audience to ID a lot of stuff and I wind up learning a lot.

[@qj8933]

Wet ground absolutely conducts the frequency waves just like it does for electricity. Ive hit fields that were bone dry and had no targets virtually but came back after a heavy rainfall and targets lit up everythere! But that said, dryer ground will help you in discriminating out ferrous and non ferrous targets better.

[@TheHistoryDigger1]

This was a good one Merrill. Enjoyed the discussion re wet soil and conductivity.

[@joannhempen8210]

I love that you use moments to teach! Never stop!! I’m a new detectorist ( is that a word? lol ) I learn so much from watching your videos! Thank you❤❤❤❤

[@lindapelullo452]

Yes, wet or damp soil has always improved signals for me. Also easier digging.

[@pegatreasurehunter]

Great post again, like always!!!!! Thanks for the info, very interesting!!!! 👍👊

[@ohdannyboyjustadiggin]

Awesome Finds and good times. Keep up the fun and sharing the knowledge you gain from Being a Metal Detectorist. Happy Hunting. Peace

[@verilyheld]

Edward the 3rd coin? Impressive, because he lived from 1312 to 1377. To find such a coin in NYC, one wonders. Was it some soldier's lucky coin? That one find with the three holes-- it looks like part of a dresser drawer pull. The three holes could be for screws to hold that to the drawer, with the small, holed extension where the pull-part itself fits in.

[@digtodiscover]

This video was great. Reminded me of the old days for some reason.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Very glad to hear!

[@MetalDetectingMermaid]

This was a great video. I learn so much from you. Thank you for your willingness to share so much information. I had my first search this morning and loved it!

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you so much!

[@DiggingBuddy]

Merrill! love this episode, I heard there's a new hf coil coming for the d2, thought it would be this fall and in time for Christmas but that seems to not be the case. Would love to get my hands on one!

[@coinholeo2253]

the disc with the 3 holes at 16.43 is probably a diaphragm from a diesel engine governor.Would have a rubberised canvas backing that altered the fuel delivery depending on vaccuum created by the engines workload.Or it could be a mouse roullette wheel.(probably Fordson tractor,tho)

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Mouse roulette......supposedly banned in NY state.....like jaywalking and finding gold......were supposed to turn it over to the police.......The mice pay no mind!!!

[@davidfrazier1186]

That site will definitely give you some experience in learning different sounds. I will try lowering sensitivity.

I strain brain cells with every 3+ syllable word! LOL

[@billsapp9681]

@MetalDetectingNYC I truly was gonna use the 3 syllable but couldn't figure out how to spell it

[@mattmatt6572]

Wet soil you will read deeper. And round shaped especially ring shaped objects often read higher numbers then they ought to for metal they are made of.

[@MetalMikeandPersis]

Really great location and finds there! 👍🙋‍♀️🙋

Your 'bushings' are Tarp Grommets. My mother had a vanity set just like that silver pattern, it was a wedding present in England, 1940s, mirror, brush and clothes brush. first mystery object, a car thermostat part, 2nd one, a cartwheel hub band.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you!

[@randallcox4930]

Hi Merrill, @ 11:13, that is what little is left of the chimney support for a table top oil lamp. Cool video! Thanks.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thanks for the info!

[@huntinquincy4238]

Not only wet ground but cloud cover seems to help those deep signals pop! I get wet ground because I could see more conductivity but cloud cover idk? Heavy fog is the best in my experience

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Interesting

[@vancejones7698]

With my nox800 my sensitivity is almost always set at 20. I turn it down to 10 in wood chip filled playgrounds. Out in the woods I will try to run it as high as it can go, rarely am I able to go max of 25 with sensitivity.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for sharing that

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

Especially on park baseball fields, When it has been raining for a full day , and there is a light mist in the air , I hit targets like crazy . Especially if the dirt is mushy . Awesome video . Question, how are you getting into dead horse bay lately ? I found the path near the signs all over growing high weeds , I had to walk up all the way to the bridge, then to the sand/ water and walk back ???? Mike Espo . Happy Thanksgiving. 🦃🍁

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Yes I have. The path has been abandoned. The only way is under the bridge now.

[@robinkhan7468]

Wet soil does help. I found two silver dimes I didn’t pick up on before in muck at a park. Had to dig in a muddy pool per say but they finally came out. Nice silver. Would be fun to have carrying cool sizes.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you Robin!

Hi Merrill, Most importantly, I hope all is going well with your father. I took care of my mother who had Alzheimers and know what it’s like to care for a parent. Thanks for making this video, the information you shared was helpful to me as I’m just getting back into the hobby.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thanks for your kind words of encouragement. Bless you for being there for your mom!

[@globalcolor4080]

Interesting finds! My favorite is the silver brush or mirror. Do you completely clean your finds up? Would you attempt to unbend it? Also, it would be great if you could give the year of all the coins you find when you find them; even if it's a newer one. Do you ever mention what county you are detecting in? Born and raised in Queens, I'd be interested. Thanks for your outstanding vids.

[@brownjessea1]

Those bushings are likely eyelets for old canvas tarps or tents.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for the ID

[@Ken.Kaniff.From.Conn.]

I run 85% sensitivity on my Fisher F-75. Sometimes, I will go higher in areas with very little trash.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for the feedback. We are getting some interesting data here.

[@firstgerm]

Such a wonderful hunt M. Good show brother 👍🕳️👨🏽‍🦯🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

DOGSTAR BLAZER IN THE HOUSE!

[@dapawaz8310]

I've always found that moist soil gives better depth. Right after a good rain, when it's been long enough not to be muddy but nicely saturated is perfect. Better conductivity? I'm not a geophysicist or electrical engineer, so who knows? Its a thing, though. Easier digging too. I'm out west where much of the ground is like concrete.

[@terryeverly5617]

Yes .better conductivity.from my experience hunting in both conditions,the drier it is the worse your signals are

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for your input/feedback!

[@mikehannah9782]

My best results for depth has always been frost out of the ground in early spring.

[@minwiralshamiri887]

Nice intro. That's what I always thought except my v3i will give mostly false signals unless I reduce the sensitivity

[@monson47]

At 16:45 the round item is for a roller shade. I think 1880s or 90s.

[@GeorgePutzenheimer]

I’m going to say tea pot lid

[@bottomfeeder12]

On my legend….yes, wet soil in the midwest goes deeper. I run the sensitivity a notch from the top, slow down my recovery speed and swing speed and it goes pretty deep, I use M3 frequently in those conditions(12inches +) In spring after a rain or fall after a rain are my favorite seasons to go.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thanks for sharing

[@James-ln7ce]

Can you give more details on the detector your using?

[@benbogg5430]

Merrill, i usually run sens at 82 to 87, depending upon soil conditions. Have had better iron discrim by running it lower than 90+. have fun brother, that's what it is all about!

[@benrjohansen]

Great finds. Great video!

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you so much!

[@ohiofredl]

Nice hunt nice finds. I run my ws6master sensitivity between 90 and 95 and ajudt my reactivity acorrding to area iam in. I only have 9 inch coil. The ws6master has found me my oldest coins. My mi6 pinpoter just arrived today. Thanks for posting hunt.

[@davidautrey9914]

Yeah we noticed, we noticed a LOT!!!

[@DIRTDIGGERDAN]

Some cool finds there dude

[@retrodqfan]

got my first barber half yesterday in a square grid ive detected countless times, first time I detected it while raining yesterday

[@paulcoenen7918]

How deep was it?

[@retrodqfan]

@paulcoenen7918 6 inches, right below a 3 jnch thick root, i tought it was a nail since most of the time thats what I find below the roots in that area.

[@paulcoenen7918]

@retrodqfan That's an awesome find. I once detected a dime signal that I knew was shallow about 1 inch so I just quickly plunged my digger in and flipped over the soil to retrieve my clad dime only to realize it was a mint condition barber dime that was being pushed back up by a root. I say was mint condition because in my haste to get it out I put a big Ole scratch in the face with my digger, a hard learned lesson for sure. Anyway congrats on your find.

[@retrodqfan]

@@paulcoenen7918 wow nice find, ive damaged my share of silvers too :(

Merrill, what you are referring to as a bushing I have always heard referred to as a GROMMET (usually for a tarp, either canvas duck or in current times plastic).

[@nickemkow4246]

More manticore videos please 🙏

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for the suggestion but I am done rating detectors. I am XP's ambassador. I took that opportunity because after buying 23 detectors there is no question in my mind that XP makes the best detectors.

[@bushelfoot]

Those are canvas rivets, the canvas would be doubled over and sown then you put in a series of rivets along the edge so a rope can be tied through the hole.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thanks for the info! That's awesome.

Yes Merrill an excellent find for the US. Brilliant.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you @oldplucker1!

[@TheMedicalDetectorist]

Hey Merrill, I run my Legend on the beach at 25-26 (about 85%). I’ve heard it described as like not cranking your music volume up to max cause it doesn’t sound as good once you pass the sweet spot (and can blow out the speaker!) I rarely run any setting at its max. HH! Sam

[@JenniferHandschin]

Have you ever dug at Fort Tryon Park, or Inwood Hill Park or High Bridge Park in Upper Manhattan near Fort George Hill? If you can, you should try it out. I’m betting lots of Colonial stuff, because it’s in the city, lots of woods, and no hunters.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

No I would love to go there!

[@benrjohansen]

An old padlock... COOL!

[@dawnconner6123]

that button at1645 looks like a drill bit for grinding that has been worn down completely or was cut off for whatever reason.

I run my Nox 600 at a sensitivity of 16 to 18, generally (out of 25).

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for the feedback. We are getting great data points.

[@jimmyberubelevesque2557]

10:30 they are tent/canvas eyelets, not bushings :p

[@danno5805]

Yeah wet soil definitely helps, I've found some of my best coins after it rains. It helps to detect deeper.

[@chunk144]

I have tried many setting for ground balance. I have it off worked great had it on 90 worked Ok. I feel some days the magnetic fields are stronger in the earth. Also I try to balance the number so if the number is 85 I go two less 83 or 81. I do not use ground grab.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

So many variables to tune in to!!! Great response!

[@Gary_Daytona]

Great hunt merrill. But there is no Garden variety silver, a Merc is a Merc is a Merc 😂

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you Gary!!! LOL

[@Kunk35]

On the Deus I’m almost always 90 on sensitivity. If I want to detail listen to something I will adjust up or down temporarily, but then return to 90.

[@ThelifeandtimesofBarneyTaylor]

Yes

[@dannybell926]

I like that lock... what's the patent date on it? It says right below the word GUARDIAN, but all I could make out was Jan. 31, not the year

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Wow! I will check as soon as I get home. I didnt know that existed! I will post back here if I see anything.

[@thingamujigger1585]

Merrill, Can you please share your settings on the D2? Please and thank you.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Plain Vanilla. Deep HC but full tones. I adjust the reactivity accordingly. My sensitivity is usually low 90s. I adjusted the audio filter to 4.

[@rickkeifer3472]

Hey Merrill I seen the wheat you dug can you tell me how to remove the green from the penny?Thanks for the video buddy keep up the great work.

[@lansmit274]

Allot of times when you remove the green by any means the coin underneath is corroded and you will see less detail.

[@dukedenarie5858]

I know the older whites I used to use freaked out in wet soil. The Deus2 I haven’t really been in the wet enough.

[@randyjohnson6220]

[@franknash7878]

Park detecting with the Manticore, I lower it to 16.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thank you for that! We are getting some interesting data from the many people who have commented.

[@ccncomics]

I want to get on the hobby. what is the best detector to buy for someone that never has done this before, and money is no object . Appreciate recommendations

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

I am XP's ambassador. There IS a bias. But that bias was earned after using 23 metal detectors and actively comparing the differences. Do you think I would be willing to compromise AFTER buying 23 metal detectors? I can say without any doubt in my mind that the XP Deus 2 is the best metal detector on the planet. Most configurations are less than 2 LBS. It can get targets up to 20 inches on dirt with the 13 inch coil. It can dive down to 66ft in the ocean. It has a special add on called the XTrem hunter that finds big objects down to 16 ft. It has a GPS (GoTerrain app) that tracks where you walk and plots the target ID where you found items. It is completely wireless. It has a high frequency coil that is coming out soon. That will make it able to find objects as small as tiny gold flakes. There is nothing as versatile on the market. There is nothing as ergonomically superior on the market. Deus 2 all day!

[@ExploreRepairRestore]

They look more like sail /canvas eyelets,stiil used today.

[@larryhelton722]

It looks like a grommet. Maybe from a sail or tarp.

[@ReversXC]

2:30 Hi. What do you think, which coil will be deeper, concentric or DD of the same size? With other things being the same. After all, a DD coil essentially has two loops with a width slightly more than half the total width of the coil, and a concentric coil has a width almost the same as the total width of the coil.

[@Metal-Detecting-Texas]

Possibly grommets?

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Thanks Matt
