My Minelab Equinox found HEAPS of Coins in this Park! (Land Metal Detecting)

[@commanderjank9060]

Greetings from Florida, USA. Sorry about all the crazy stuff going on. Anyways, my question is, what are your coins made of? In the US, our cent is made of Zinc plated in copper. Our 10 and 25 cent pieces are copper core with nickel chrome surrounding, aka (clad). We dont really use dollar coins, but they're clad as well. Wish we had $2 coins, those seem awesome. Our coins on the equinox 600-800 are 1cent new(19-20), old pre 1982 (23-25), 10 cent 25-27, 25cents 28-30. $1 (31-32). The only odd ball is the 5 cent nickle, made of nickle, rings in at a (12-13).

[@DirtFishMish]

Greetings and thanks for this awesome informative comment, I've pinned it as I think other viewers could find it a useful reference! We have a lot of different coins given that we had a different currency system (pre-decimal, inherited from the UK) up until the mid-1960's, when we switched to modern decimal currency. A lot of our older coins are either predominantly copper or a silver/copper mix (first 925 silver with added copper, then a 50% silver / 40% copper mix with some added zinc and tin). Copper is still the dominant metal today, our 5/10/20/50¢ are 75/25 copper/nickel, and our 'goldies' $1/$2 are 92% copper, the rest aluminium & nickel. I'll make a video on the tones and compositions sometime but wanted to get back to you first :) Happy hunting!

[@DirtFishMish]

Thanks so much for all the support for this video - it appears that you all really enjoyed this modern coin hunt! I'll be sure to take you along for more in the near future. :)

Morning Mish, great hunt for sure. That creek looks a big flooded or has runoff. I would hunt that when it clears up a bit. I get in some murky stuff but that looks like chocolate soup. $28 is awesome, enough to buy a coffee for sure and it looks like Al misses out today. The weekend is coming up so a hunt is in store for me. Still working on another Heron Island Vid, have 100 gig of video file to sort thru. Plenty of parks around here, maybe I should do one. Be like a duck outa water. Cheers for now and HH Brad

[@DirtFishMish]

I still feel like a duck out of water doing parks, beaches and rocks are definitely my comfort zone! Getting more comfortable with it though. Yes the river definitely needs to clear/calm a bit but hopefully I'll spy an opportunity there in my future travels (I drive by it every month or so). 100GB...that's nearly as big as the drive I have to edit on, lol! Happy hunting!

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to drop a comment! I find lead everywhere I go, even on the land, it has this habit of following me. 🤣 I’m very happy to finally be at the stage where I can recycle it into functional items such as the weights, still got 60kg or so of scrap waiting to go through the process too. Happy hunting to you 😊

[@Swingin_wit_Willy]

Just a thing I have learnt... the nox can pick up 925 thrips between 16-19. I have even found a 50% 6p at solid 18. Personally I like to keep everything on above 15 with the exception of 10 and 13 for 5s and 10s. As for no pre decimals, im sure thats due to the depth you were digging. I find all of my pre decimals around 4-6 inches deep in my 100 y.o park. Great hunt. Enjoyable to watch. Subbed! Good Luck & Happy Swingin'

[@DirtFishMish]

G'day there WIlly, thanks so much for subscribing! I agree on the old silvers, if it were a beach I'd be running things wide open but this particular park had a lot of nasty canslaw in that range, and I didn't have my sealed gloves with me to protect the fingers. Agreed on the depth, I wanted to be careful with this location but as my digging skills improve I'll be sure to scan a little deeper. Cheers! :)

[@Swingin_wit_Willy]

@@DirtFishMish yeah I dont blame you for notching out the canslaw signals, I have heaps in my park too but I just persist with them, found alot of thrips for doing so. As for digging those deeper targets use a decent sized backpack shovel and cut a few plugs in your backyard. Key is try not to disturb the roots too much and the plug will heal beautifully. I cant see my plugs at all after I flip them back into the ground (well 99% of them lol). Still, great episode and awesome efforts. Looking forward to your next adventure🤪

[@slayer8actual]

Hey, Mish! Next time you think about leaving your digging tool in the car, remember this - the tool you need is always the one you left behind. I learned that a long ago since I ride a motorcycle everyday. If it looks like it's going to rain and I put my rain gear on, it doesn't rain. If it is clear and sunny, and I leave my rain gear at home, it will inevitably rain later that day. The life of a biker.... I know it rains a lot where you live so I imagine you have to make those decisions as well - "Do I take my rain gear? Do I travel light and risk it? Do I need this tool? Do I need the larger and heavier coil? Am I going in the water? Where are my floaties?" Yes, Mish, I know you have to make those tough decisions because you like to keep it light and maneuverable. I'm just going to put this out there, but one day when you get really famous and need a tool caddy, and gear and equipment porter, I am submitting my application and resume. You'll never be wanting for a tool ever again. Tyger Blade or Cub? I got them both. I can also take your B-roll video for documentary purposes. Looking forward to your next adventure! Later, friend!

[@DirtFishMish]

The hardest hunts to pack for are the ones along the shoreline, because I never truly know if I’m going to get in the water or not. And there’s a whole lot of gear to choose from these days - even though I’ve simplified my choice of detectors! Hubby used to have similar dilemmas when he had his bike, also since sold off. 😊 Cheers mate!

[@mdmelbourne6076]

Well done Mish, funny how someone's gone to the effort to place the dream catcher lol. I'd be stuffed after 3 hours you pulled through the day like a trooper, have a great weekend ATB GL&HH Jim

[@DirtFishMish]

It would’ve been a heck of an effort to install that dreamcatcher for sure! I usually hunt for 4hrs or so, because I can’t get out more than a few times a week. It works well but I definitely sleep soundly that night 😂 same to you Jim, happy hunting!

[@debclasohm4739]

Damn , I wish that park was in my "backyard" - nice and big . great haul today , I think i'm lucky when I get 1 goldy let alone that many lol. Check the centenary of federation $1 coins as sometimes they have a rotation error with the queens effigy. I have a mindset like you when it comes to detecting in parks, if my pinpointer doesn't find it then I leave it there , alot of people wouldn't but thats how i do it . I want to see you get in the river and see whats there. I doubt whether anyone has done it already. Well done Mish HH.

[@DirtFishMish]

Thanks Deb, I didn’t know about that variation on the CoF $1 coins! I’m not sure if I still have them but I’ll rummage through and check. 😁 There are sections of this park that I could probably dig further without issue but I still get self-conscious in public areas with digging tools. Forever being cautious and courteous! 😉 I’ll keep an eye on that river each time I drive through the area and hope for clearer conditions. Happy hunting 😁

Hi again Mish.. have been detecting for about 30 years started in England when I was a lot lot younger and then moved to Perth 20 years ago.. Have detected many beaches with much success. You detect many parks,.. my question is am I allowed to in Perth? Obviously I repair all my holes but have had a number of people question if I should be detecting parks. Again your site is fantastic and have huge admiration for what you do.. would love the confidence to do what you do and share all my wonderful finds. Thanks again for everything Pete.

[@DirtFishMish]

G’day Peter, I haven’t heard of any specific restrictions over your way, it’s worth a quick search through your council’s bylaws (usually available on their website) for the word ‘detecting’ just in case. But it’s generally just a case of respect the land, avoid obvious no-go zones (heritage listed places etc) and if a council worker asks you to move on, politely be on your way. Most ask what I’ve found and a quick point to your bag full of removed trash typically puts a positive spin on the conversation and I’ve never been asked to vacate. Cheers 😊

I always have such fun joining you on your hunts. So many things to learn! A few questions: What are those birds with the beautiful voices? About how old is the eucalyptus tree that you showed us?

[@DirtFishMish]

Hello Susan, thank you so much! :) I'm not the best at bird identification as I couldn't see them, possibly a Grey Shrike, we also get bellbirds and lyrebirds around this area which sound equally lovely. As for the eucalyptus, the rough rule of thumb is that their trunk diameter in cm is equivalent to their years of age - so at a guess, well over 100yrs old! One can only imagine how many people have sat under it to watch the world go by...

[@CriticalThinker1967]

I’m guilty of what you mentioned when I’m in a trashy park. Notch out everything except goldies and predecimals. Partly it’s because of laziness but our inland climate is very hot and dry and can only really safely dog plugs in autumn or winter because you’ll always kill the grass in your plug in late spring and summer. As a result I rarely if ever dig up ring pulls or pull tabs but screw cap bottle tops are crafty buggers and almost impossible to avoid and still catch me out. I do enjoy your appreciate when you do a park video though. I study them intently, Living 3 hours from the coast beach hunts require time off and camping overnight in the rooftop tent (or cheap motel if I can convince the wife to come along)

[@DirtFishMish]

I like to think of park hunts as my piggy bank hunts - I know I won’t typically dig deep enough for the old stuff, so I like to hunt as efficiently as possible for spendable coins. Sometimes I’ll dig everything though - just depends on the day. Cheers 😊

Can you do a video on your pinpointing technique your like a ninja pulling out coins using that probe thing you have leaving a tiny hole and little damage. If it was me I would dig a crater and it still would be in the side.

[@DirtFishMish]

You only see the good digs! ha ha... I'm still a novice at it, but I'll try to show the technique off in future videos. It definitely takes longer to retrieve a target with that method than digging a plug but it's almost unnoticeable afterwards. Cheers Ciaran!

I'm sure you noticed long ago that my comments tend to run a little long.....sorry. But let me tell you what I do when I watch your videos. I make notes in the comment section as I'm watching to remind myself what to write later. I delete some and expound on others. The following are some of the notes I made on this video. "Ah, well. Things we do for the hobby, huh?" "I'm finding all the beach targets in a park!" The Matchbox Ford Corsair 45 series came with a little green boat that could be mounted on the roof rack of the car. "People are annoying." 28 dollars! You made coffee money and some left over for a bucket of cookies! I really wanted to talk about the car most of all, but then when I could sense your very real and palatable frustration when you have to clean up after others... I get frustrated too. I've made it very clear to you in other comments, that I prefer to work alone and I enjoy hobbies that are a one-person activity, not because I don't like people, but because sometimes I just need a break from them. When the weather here gets warmer, I really do intend on looking seriously into getting a quality rig. The peace I see it offers you is drawing me in. The frustration of dealing with others....well, I can learn things from your videos - pick it up and move on. As always, Mish, looking forward to your next adventure.

hehe, I make notes in the comments box while I’m watching a video as well! My grey matter doesn’t remember what I was thinking twenty minutes earlier, so I have to jot down the thoughts as I go. 😂 I’m getting excited for you stepping into this hobby my friend. Cheers 😊

Like your videos, keep it up & yes want to see u go back & check out river.

[@DirtFishMish]

Thanks Pat! I’ve only been able to check on this place once since this video, it’s still quite murky unfortunately but I might try another land hunt here sometime as well. Cheers 😊

Hello!

Hey there, Dug! 😁

Wow that is a lot of coins. Wish the US had 2dollar coins. I would love to see you detect the river, just watch out for glass and metals. Thank you for the fun video. ♥♥♥

[@DirtFishMish]

Thanks D! Yes we are quite lucky to have $2 coins - they're very handy due to their small size. I'll have to go back there to excavate some more of them - and hopefully the river will be calmer/clearer on that day. Cheers! :)

A small tip, try not to rub your finds, use a water spray bottle.

[@DirtFishMish]

My impatience knows no bounds 😂 I didn’t have all of my usual equipment with me as I was travelling, I do have a spray bottle though admittedly I rarely make use of it. I’ll work on that 😉 Cheers!

@@DirtFishMish lol, I know how you feel :P

[@williambrandondavis6897]

@@jcramond73 smh, that spray bottle bs is for dramatic effect only. I skip videos like that. Any coin you find buried in the ground is not going to be worth anything more than face or metal value anyhow.

I’d really like to see a water 💦 hunt I’ve been thinking of getting the to try one myself but i have trouble holding my breath in the shower but i will try!

[@DirtFishMish]

I’m slowly evolving my wading hunts to the point where I’m snorkelling in them. I still haven’t had a chance to get back to this particular river to check it 🙁 but at least I know if the river isn’t suitable, I’ve got a good chance of finding some coins. Cheers Phillip!

Don't you have Crocks .

[@DirtFishMish]

Nope, I live in way too cold a region for them. They are mostly along the northern coast of Australia and I'm on the southern end :)
