Minelab Equinox Ryegrass Rematch

[@chiphungerford]

Rewatching some of your content, Miss you hope you and your family are well.

[@ralphwatson7036]

Been watching some other live dig videos today and they made me appreciate the quality of yours. Nice work.

[@mrwheatie]

Miss you. I’m newly retired so I will be out detecting more. I like your review of the settings before hunt. Please come back soon.

[@johnb2740]

You make very good videos. You have a gift. I hope you continue to make them. I metal detect down here in Tennessee, It's the most relaxing thing I do to get my mind off of work and the daily grind. I've found some great stuff, but it's not always about the finds for me. Sometimes just getting out in nature is enough.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Thank you. I’ll continue to make them as time and life allows. Typically during summer I don’t detect as much... more of a seasonal thing for me timed by farm fields without crops and woods not filled with mosquitoes.

[@James-lj7rm]

8:04 I know the Square Nail Squirrel isn't complaining about square nails. LOL Good hunt

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Lol. Sometimes the 20th square nail for the day is a little taxing. 😂😂

[@wadtwb]

I enjoy your enthusiastic, knowledgeable handling of the Equinox 800.

[@duanerichardson5405]

Congrats Kenny on that beautiful large cent . I'm sure there has to be more coins out there . Thnx for the video.

[@andrewtaylor5559]

What an awesome button. Not to mention the beautiful large cent

[@russwhite4446]

Thankyou Kenny I really enjoyed your finds cant wait for warmer weather in Michigan then I can wear my arm out too!!!

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Lol. The warm weather will be there soon. The only thing about warmer weather is the mud... lots and lots of mud. 😂

Good hunt. Looking forward to having you on Relics Radio. Stay safe and HH.

[@dagwoodacid]

Excellent! Love that large cent. Found the exact same Imperial Standard button at my Blacksmith Homestead permission last week! Thanks for your videos- always inspiring

[@richardrollins184]

Like the way that you show items clean up before the end.

[@DugMcClure]

You take those large cents for granted. We don’t have them down here. But of course, if you look in the right place, we do have Revolutionary. I’m still looking for mine. Good hunt, and I appreciate your settings recap! ATB!

[@jcqpublic]

Keep up the good work. I moved from the V3I to the Equinox 800 myself. Sure hits deep and ID's nice. Great find on the large cent!

[@nlgcworkdl7568]

Hi Kenny just subscribed to your channel Vermont Derek mentioned you in one of his videos. So I started binge watching your videos love your content and the way you show us all your nox settings. Excellent job bud keep the videos coming.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Thank you very much for your kind comments as well as subscribing to my channel. I try my best to keep it entertaining as well as educational to help the hunt for everybody. The biggest thing about this hobby a success so I promote that as much as I can. My whole goal with my videos it’s not a show me metal detecting but to take everybody with me on the hunt with each video. Thank you for tuning in to check out my videos and take care

[@johnrice9529]

I enjoy your videos very much. They re more entertaining and informative than all the other video makers including Calabash. There will always be people that will ruin a good thing, so ignore them. Looking forward to your return.

[@steverussell7606]

Very nice Large cent, Thanks for taking time to talk to us Tuesday nite, 417 Relic Hunters!

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Thank you... the large cents are always fun to find. It was a pleasure meeting and talking with you all... great community of folks. 👍🏻 If I get out that way I’ll check in prior and stop by.

[@wadehendryx7378]

Thanks for the video. Decent finds. Hope you're doing well. Stay safe have a good weekend.

[@luisvillarreal5262]

Hello Kenny. It's always nice to find a Largie. I've only ever found one in my 12 years of detecting. An 1854 Braided Hair large cent. Great video. You've lived up to your channel name on this hunt, LOL. Wishing you and your family a safe one throughout this difficult time. H.H. _/

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Lots of square nails... I always dig them lol. Anything under about 20 that has a scratchy instance to the target tone is most likely a square nail but I dig it any way... not always a nail.

[@piedmontartifacts8910]

Really nice large cent, be safe as well. Kenny

[@baystateplugflipper7061]

Great job!! I enjoy watching folks that use the same machine I do. Keep them coming!!

[@davesv6041]

Glad your back my friends and I enjoy your videos very much. Take care

[@ronalddvorak1967]

It's always nice to get out and metal detect on a nice day, congrats on the large cent.

[@DirtBandit]

I enjoy your channel. I found it by searching for metal detecting research and I was hooked. I also make youtube videos and adopted your style of filming with a tripod. Thanks for the videos.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Beautiful large cent Kenny. Keep doing what you do. Love the videos.~ Aqualand Relics ~

[@paodigger644]

Thanks Kenny for another great job detecting.

[@christinemartin6397]

My favorite was the floral button... I imagine it being attached to a ladies long sleeve dress cuff or to her fancy waist coat. And I have to agree... A muddless day is more favorable. Thank you Mr. S-n-S

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

I enjoy the buttons and as you described I typically envision where the button came from. I need to dig out my past finds and collect the buttons to make a display... some interesting ones have been found.

[@jammygrisham2331]

That was a great button and largie. Not bad at all. Stay safe out there squirrel.

[@felipejuarez7753]

What a beautiful coin. Really like ur videos. Looking forward to the next one.

I love watching your videos, nice finds.

[@GDSavingThePast]

You are the king of button finds. Nice find with the large cent.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Lately I have definitely been finding some very unique buttons, I greatly enjoy them.

[@henrymiller3000]

Lots of swinging for the payoff, but that's MT. Thanks for a great video. Keep them coming I'll be watching.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

I got pretty wore out on this hunt... the wind was so bad towards the end that standing up and keeping balance was a challenge. Lol. I’m glad I finally got a coin at this site to fortify the date range that the home existed.

[@OneSicilian]

Love your videos over all the other detectorists, hope you come back and put more of your great content out!

[@jimmycoleman3115]

Another great hunt. Congrats on the large cent. That was good info on the Equinox setup.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Something different to try... helps me out having the threshold of most probable “good” finds being a higher tone. My square nails and flat half dollar sized iron fall in that 13,14,15 range a lot with 16 being the “good” threshold. There are still great finds below 16... but moving the threshold keeps my mental game on par after fatigue sets in.

[@markfenwick3085]

My favorite detecting videos, thanks and please keep em coming.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Thank you Mark... greatly appreciated.

[@kayesdigginit1519]

Congratulations on pulling a coin from the site 😃 and you had just mentioned that you hadn't yet 👍 finding that 1800's Large Cent made the find even sweeter!! The buttons were some great finds as well, I liked the decorative ladies button the best 🤗 Keep well and Keep on Swingin!!

[@davidseeburger8448]

Awesome videos. Enjoy the history lesson and finds.

[@larrystephens7437]

At first I thought I was watching the wrong channel. Where was the mud! I believe you have finished that location for this year. Thanks for the show...

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

I think this was the first non-super muddy site that I’ve been on so far this year, sometimes the mud is a little tiresome. I do believe that this might be my last time to this site unless things dry up more than they already are permission wise

[@badgers3255]

I just found your channel. Great videos. Thank you for your hard work on the videos.

[@onemanstreasure6094]

Out here talking about not having good finds lol. Great hunt, great video

[@mcdigsbmore6531]

Thanks for the Equinox tips.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

I try my best to talk about what I’m doing with my machine. I like to shift my tones every once in a while especially when I’m a little bit tired. Seems to help out with paying attention two more probable good find tones.

[@bobalmendinger4930]

Hi, Great video , thank you for taking the time to post it. I found a 3 cent nickel the other day with the 800 using the 6" . It was dead repeating 3-4 . I was surprised that low nothing else was in the hole as far as iron. But maybe because it was slightly corroded? I just wanted to mention it when you said you blocked tones below 9. Look forward to your next videos. Thanks again for posting.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

I might need to expand my target IDs and except below nine more often just to see what comes out. I typically reject those numbers because I spent so much time digging trash when I am accepting them

[@bobalmendinger4930]

Square Nail Squirrel I have been hunting the same abandoned fairgrounds for 30 + years. I'm still finding things . It's amazing what's under the iron so to speak. I got a seated dime and a half dime mixed in with nails . My friend snagged a twenty cent silver amongst the iron and old square nails. I had a shield nickel read at a 6-7 at 8" , then went to a 10 once I started to get it in overered . There is a lot of junk though . You got that right. Do you use the 90 degree method to check the numbers to see if it changes

[@pastmasters9591]

Always love seeing your next episode my friend. Unfortunately our detecting trip to upstate New York is canceled this year. It'll be the first year we've missed in 5 years 😞

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

That’s no fun... I’ve cancelled two travel plans so far and the rest of my year will be modified... definitely odd times. Thanks for checking out the videos and take care.

[@AMT90]

Awesome stuff! Man your large cents are so much nicer than ones I find around here.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

It is a mix, sometimes they look good and sometimes you can’t read a single thing. I’m thankful for the ones I can get dates off because it helps me with dating the site.

[@jim-do5pt]

Good showing!

[@SantaFe-wi1ve]

Loved the video, subscribed and now going back to watch some more. Please do not let anyone discourage you from doing what you love to do. Good job!

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Thank you... 🙂👍🏻 There has been times it gets frustrating but what I have found is that taking a break every once in awhile keeps me from getting worn out making videos. Typically the summer isn’t my hunting season unless I do a hunt here or there... so I break during that period and focus on gaining permissions. Then when the ground is soft and crops are harvested... I get back out.

[@DiggingCanuck]

Another great episode. Sweet large cent 😎

[@TheHistoryDigger1]

Another good video. Great set up of your shots. Enjoyed watching it.

[@daveparnell3886]

I don't know if you already know this, but the square nails that you find that don't rust are like that because they have been subjected to high heat like in a house fire...

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Thank you for the information Dave. I have heard that but didn’t recall it... good to refresh on that. In the past I found a complete nail like this... makes for a fun find.

@@squarenailsquirrel9638 Like they all say....It you found something every time it wouldn't be called hunting, it would be called finding. Keep up with the videos and the details about how your machine is setup. There is a whole lot of us using the EQ and appreciate this.

[@carlsowell8099]

Just watched Rye grass rematch. I really have a blast watching your videos even when you don't find much. Got a couple of questions for you. #1 Sometimes you spray your finds with the spray bottle. What is in the bottle? Just plain water or water and vinegar? Also what is the largest square nail that you've found? Thanks

[@ringfinder7]

You'll have days like that Ken, I had one this week also. walked a couple of miles it seemed and carried out a ton of Iron. The ground is really hard here in NW Ohio, even with all the rain we have had. I feel sorry for the farmers, hope they are able to get there Beans in, I like Beanfields, LOL (Ringfinder)

[@DugMoneyDetecting]

Nice saves man! Take care & HH

[@steventhompson8189]

Enjoy it, I going to dig those 30’s

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Make sure to pin point... find center of what is responding in the 30’s. Then when not in pin point (in discriminate mode) sweep the center of the all metal pin pointed location. Make sure your not getting the 30’s signal 6-10” away from the targets location... if so... your getting big iron halo effect. If you get a 30’s ID right where the machine pin points your probability for a great find just drew an ace from the deck.

[@CrazySpiderAdventures]

Awesome vid as always 😁😁😁

[@carlsowell8099]

Curious , what was your greatest find? The one that just rocked your world? Not so much the most valuable , but the one that just excited you the most? Just wondering. Thank You.

Still wanting to know where I can get one of the bags like yours. Please help a brother Squirrel out.

[@kevinallen9009]

Hello Kenny, just now subscribed to your channel. Very interesting videos. Thanks. What is the brand/ model of your shovel. It looks to very well designed for field use.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

I am not into reinventing wheels because a shovel is pretty much just a shovel no matter how much you pay for it. If you click the videos tab and look back into my videos you will find a full description of my shovel as well as how to make it. You might have $30 invested by the time you’re done and they actually last because I put mine through the ringer for the past three years and it’s done perfectly fine.

[@johnjiracek893]

Keep the videos coming. I especially appreciate the time you take showing and explaining your settings.I too let my V3i go in pursuit of an Equinox 800, but I do have some remorse...I miss the toggle switch and the amount of information the three screens instantly gave you before you dig. As a coin hunter the V3i was more intuitive. Any thoughts?

[@bartleylitts3112]

Great video! Did you ever hear of Andre's pencils or ever think about using them?

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

Yes... I’ve used them. After my $24 Amazon purchase of them I soon after wore the 1 usable pencil out. I now use 0000 steel wool palm rolled on a flat surface to make essentially what the pencils are. $5 for a 10 year supply of coin cleaning assistance. I use a toothpick to help out the wool as well as tissues that have lotion. My video of cleaning crusty coppers shows the Andres pencils.

[@trevor45140]

Enjoy your videos. I’m curious. Why don’t you search in F2 iron bias mode?

[@jcqpublic]

It knocks out some signals you may want to dig.

[@squarenailsquirrel9638]

With iron bias the algorithm dealing with aggressiveness to discriminate iron is increased. Not that I love to dig rusty iron... but I do like to hear coins that are deep which have heavy corrosion levels. Heavily corroded coins and other items of interest can be disc’d out or sound of scratchy... when in actuality I want to hear them clearly.

[@trevor45140]

Thanks for your reply.

You know the nox 800 extremely well.
