MINELAB EQUINOX 900 tips for METAL DETECTING trashy sites

G'day folks. In this episode I am looking at my discrimination settings on the Minelab Equinox 900 to avoid as much of the junk as I can in a site full of trashy targets. Some successes and some not so successful finds is the reality of metal detecting these kinds of sites.
Thanks for hunting out my KZbin channel.
My name is Andrew, so why do they call me The Coffee Bush Kid? I may have found the odd gold coin or two in the middle of the coffee bush where others fear to tread.
Metal detecting in Central Victoria, Australia. Goldfields relics, treasures, and the odd Aussie critter.

[@neilmahomed4926]

Great video CBK

[@gerardconlon8207]

Hi Andrew. I've seen you on a few of Mish's videos and thought you have such a lovable personality, which comes out more in your own video 👍 Love the buckle/button. Looking forward to seeing more videos. Take care.

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Thanks Gerard. Welcome aboard. It was a cool little button. Thanks for the comment and watching 😁👍

[@JosipKolenik]

Great video Professor CBK. Some interesting finds you dug-out this time. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the great work.

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Joe. Glad you are enjoying watching the show. Thanks for the comments. Take care mate 😁👍

[@mdmelbourne6076]

G’day Andrew, nice find’s mate, just like a lucky dip is that place, never know what you’ll get, definitely worth poking around in there for something that could just be something to use as a display item for the pool room 👍, Have a great day weekend mate cheers 🍻

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Jim. The cricket buckle can go into the pool room. When you jump into those trashy sites it is a lucky dip. Some rubbish but there are little bits of treasure every now and then. Hope you had a good one too 😁👍

[@davidfrazier1186]

The button /buckle was a Nice find 👍

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

I was very happy with it David😁👍

[@jeandigshistory]

Thanks for sharing!

[@helendisher1040]

Some interesting finds there. Love the buckle button, cricket buckle and bits and bobs. Well done Andrew.

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Helen and Rob. They were the best finds. Very happy how it all turned out. Thanks for watching. Hope you are both well 😁👍

[@Working925detecting]

Thanks for keeping me entertained for another 30 min today Andrew 😄👍

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

No worries Darren. Glad you enjoyed it 😁👍

[@waynearmstrong5233]

Oops, wrong button, Not you! Me!.. I think that spring loaded buckle might be a clamp type buckle. Great hunt Andrew, thanks Mate, Cheers!

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Could be right on that one Wayne. Good little find in the rubbish 😁👍

[@leeclyma]

A very nice variety of finds once again Andrew.. the cricket buckle is awesome and the many buttons. I love the buckle button though 😁😍

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Lee. There was a good array of finds. I reckon the buckle button is a ripper too. Very happy to have it 😁👍

[@derekthomassen5407]

❤ The cricket buckle, nice find 👍

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Thanks Derek😁👍

[@Notchedto11]

Another wonderful watch, this time for me on a Monday lunchtime over a cold coke & sandwich. I love that button with the buckle on it, and must say I’m very keen on the little sniper coils! Enjoyable as ever mate! Have a great week x

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Marcus. I’m a bit late in response because we were up in Sydney for the weekend giving training on relic detectors on the beach for work. That button was sweet. Do love that 6” coil. Always have ever since I started using one on the 800. Thanks for watching mate. You have a great weekend too 🦘🦘😁👍

[@greedygringoprospecting6941]

some one gave up got my 900 for $750. in awesome shape. hardly used. with the 11" and 6" coil. sell my nox 700 and vanquish 340. get enough $$$ for the 15". coil. 👍👍👍

[@UKPaulaK]

Thank you for today's video, given me the confidence to try changing stuff on my mix to see what happens 😁

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

No problem Paula. When you change things and something goes wrong and you don’t know how to fix it or what you’ve done, there is always doing a factory reset. Nothing wrong with that. Good luck 😁👍

[@waynearmstrong5233]

G'day Andrew, it may have been a trashy site, but with those sort of finds, I don't think I would want to walk away from it! I'd be in seventh heaven with that variety, and it's great when you start to recognise the better sounds within the mishmash of responses, and I know I feel pretty good about myself, when Ive hit a good target, just by listening. Loved the buckle button. The scratches on that first lead disc almost looked like a sail on a ship,

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Wayne. They were some good spots to swing. I was happy with what I found too. The buckling button was a ripper of a find and yes it does look like a sail too. Take care mate 😁👍

[@thegoldrushguy]

I got the exact same buckle without the middle piece. Hope Sydney is a blast

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Guy. Cool about being buckle buddies 🤣🤣. Sydney was good. Hot and lots of people. The intro was mentioned 😉😉👍

[@10TargetsDetecting]

Nice video Andrew. I am a fan of mystery items. Find them all the time 😂😂 Love the term clip clop too. Very enjoyable watching your vids. Love the 6” coil too amongst all that trash. Cheers. Camille

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Camille. A mystery item makes detecting interesting. Got a few KZbinrs around the world using it now too. Good descriptive words for what is going on in the ground 🤣🤣. Great that you are enjoying the videos. Do love me a 6” coil. Gets in amongst everything. Take care mate 😁👍

[@buckshotprospector]

That's a awesome button/buckle Andrew never seen one like that before. Some other cool finds as well, great video good sir 😀

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Gadzee. Very happy with that little button. Lots of interesting stuff did come up. Just back from Sydney. Catch you in a few weeks 😁👍

[@NathanielOutdoorAdventures]

I am sure someone else kissed that buckle and then reburied it. Not you my friend, lol. An amazing find and a nice mix of finds.

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

🤣🤣 Yes I agree. It must have been someone else. A good few bits came up. Thanks for watching mate. Take care 🦘🦘😁👍

[@terryosz8458]

Thank you for sharing I am learning more with every video God bless you sir and stay safe

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Terry. I’m glad you are. Appreciate you watching and your comments. Take care mate 😁👍

[@DetectingOz]

Always a great challenge to find the good stuff amongst the plip plop of a super trashy site Andrew.I like the buckle button and the cricket buckle is cool,but as often happens,the centre piece is missing.Another great video and catch you on the next one.

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Gary. It is always a challenge but when it pays off it does. Very happy with the buckle and the button. As you know it is rare to get a complete buckle of anything, snake or cricket, we are lucky to get what we do. Thanks for watching mate 😁👍

[@ChasingGoldAustralia]

Awesome finds in a trashy area Andrew, awesome work 🇦🇺⛏️😘

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Thanks for watching Josh. Hope to catch up soon. Pretty busy at the moment 😁👍

[@Papa-Griff]

Thoroughly enjoyable episode Andrew buddy. Missed you at RCM and Detectival this year. 😢 maybe next? Take care and stay lucky 🍀🤞

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Craig. Glad you enjoyed the video. We missed being there too but have decided that we will be over for both next year. Once it starts to get closer and we know where it will be we will start to make arrangements to catch up with everyone. You guys included. Take care mate 🦘🦘😁👍

[@bryanolier6775]

Good hunt , nice buttons

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Thanks for watching Bryan😁👍

[@DugMcClure]

Love the button twofer!

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Ripper hey Dug 🦘🦘😁👍

[@barbaralawrence784]

YAY another CBK , the lead disc thingy at 18:22 when you were turning it around on your knee, i kept seeing different pictures, bamboo and ships, ocean, forest and fighter jet's, not sure about that last one! where in my head did that come from? Anyhoo some nice find's but no tokens for you cause they are for Mish, cheers from Warragul

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Barbara. There were lots of things you could see on that disc. But nothing absolute. Yes I do wish Mish would get a token soon. Stop me feeling bad every time I get one. Thanks for watching 😁👍

[@i_dig_it_melbourne]

I love how dirty you get at the pick marks. 😂😂😂.. Thanks for sharing these 900 nox tips! You certainly do have a very keen ear for those nice sounds. Its definitely an art that takes a bit of experience Mr CBK!! Work in progress for me! Thanks for the video!

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Daniela. Glad you got something out of it. It all takes time. I’m just over 10 years. Just get out and have fun 😁👍

[@martaminder2716]

How about the head off an old watering can. We used one to "shower" in the creek. I like the tips on the 900, I bought a 5x10 Coiltek. It seems to sort the trash better. Great clip.

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Gday Marta. Reckon you could be right. Glad you enjoyed the video and I hope the 10 x 5 works well for you 🦘🦘😁👍

[@benrjohansen]

Great finds amongst the rubbish!

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Thanks for watching 😁👍

[@metaldetectingqueensland1233]

When their dropping trash their dropping treasure good sign of occupation 🙂👍⛏🍺

[@user-yl3ge3uc3y]

Great videos. Just got my equinox 900 out 3 beaches and no finds. Does it matter if I wear head phones or not?

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Congrats on the 900. I don’t usually wear headphones. I will though if I am by the sea, a busy road or it is very windy or in a public place where I don’t want people to hear what I am doing. The choice is yours. Good luck 😁👍

[@bigchief2331]

Hi CBK, did you go on any hunts whilst you were in Sydney?

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

No BC. We were all worn out after each day. Weren’t used to the heat 😁👍

[@ShannonChambers-mj7nw]

Button up your buckle coffee bush kid lol

[@IDNHANTU2day]

How come my 900 does not have the labels under the modes identifying what they are. Is it a sticker?

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

It is a screen protector that you have to put on. Should be in the little book that came with the unit or you can get them from a Minelab dealer much like Miners Den 😁👍

[@IDNHANTU2day]

@@TheCoffeeBushKid thank you

[@barbaralawrence784]

Home made shower head?
