Testing Gold Coins with the Minelab Equinox 900

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

This video is only for VDI readings for the different modes of the Equinox900. It is not intended to be a depth test.

[@ganjalfcreamcorn8438]

you should turn the sensitivity down next time so its only picking up gold and nothing else. 25% power would be fine and more accurate for the VDI.

[@ganjalfcreamcorn8438]

Thank you for the video btw, there's not much info on the VDI numbers for the 900. It's appreciated.

[@HelenBrian]

Watching here my friend,sending love and support.I enjoyed watching your video.Have a great Day.thank you for this amazing video.

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you for taking the time to watch, I really appreciate your support.

[@PinnedonPlaces]

What a great video, nice to see a new bit of kit! Hope you're enjoying it! You'll find that gold coin!!! Great sharing!

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you. I'll bet you could find some great stuff at the places you visit, but detecting there is probably off limits. Thank you for watching, I really appreciate it.

Great Test Thank you for sharing

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Not a lot of beating around the bush... just getting straight to the test.

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Howdy Mike🍻hope all is good with you👍💗👍

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Hello Lisa. Good to see you, thank you for watching.

[@QuarterPicker]

Interesting readings. No telling what I've missed ignoring jumpy signals.

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

That was for VDI numbers only, not an in-ground test. I get nervous if I have to bury my gold coins. LoL. Gold rings up like pull tabs, so dig everything to get everything. Happy Hunting.

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Awesome demonstration, Mike, I'm glad you're enjoying the 900!❤

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

I'm getting used to it. It is the perfect beach machine.

[@19jody72]

EXACTLY what I wanted to see!! THANKS!

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you, I'm glad you found it useful

[@Swamp-Fox]

Nice Nox! That is quite a collection of gold coins you have there!

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you very much. They are my long-term investment. LoL

[@Jerry-Parker]

Very Cool demonstration ! 🪙🤤👍

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you, much appreciated

[@bethvergara]

Enjoy searching

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you Beth 🥰

[@LIVINGRETIRED310]

Not being rude Mike but couldnt you have done that with the 800 or even the 600? I found a nice heavy 14K gold chain with the AT Max using the storm coil about 3 yrs ago. Sorry but air tests dont prove anything unless if you swing at park grounds for surface finds. . Soil depth and mineral composition has big effect on signals. But then again i dont swing anymore, formerly known as Clarksville Diggers. Prepping & food storing has taken a lot of my time these days. Keep digging in dirt, one day you find the mother load my friend.

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

The test was only for VDI numbers using a new machine. It was not a depth test. Craig had a Nox800, I can link up with him and do an in- ground test using the same coins in the near future. Thank you for your comment.

[@GetThatTreasure]

Yeah yeah gold coins but all I’m really thinking is that you UPGRADED!!! Way to go on getting a 900!

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Indeed I did. The AT Pro is an excellent land machine but I needed something for salt water beaches. The Nox900 was the obvious choice.

[@jeffcrumpler8793]

Very cool I own gold pieces but I have never found one

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

I found some gold when panning in NC, but not yet found any gold coins with the detector. A few gold rings, but not coins.

[@talcadetector4018]

Saludos cordiales y un gran abrazo desde chile para usted compañero 🙋‍♂️🇨🇱🙏⛏️🗝️🤝👍

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Gracias mi amigo. 👍

[@JackFrostTheDeerHunter]

guess I gotta start digging those low numbers....and collect more foil, nails, and other trash. Thanks for the video.

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

You have to dig it all to get it all. I hope you find something very nice.

[@DigginWithDeej]

Cool coins to be able to test!

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

This was for VDI numbers only. I was not going to bury my gold coins to do a depth test

[@lawrenceandria7551]

Any chance of doing a video on the 900 with gold jewelry, rings, chains, pendants, etc?

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Yes, absolutely. I will do in-ground tests with gold and silver rings, necklaces and pendants.

[@davidjohnrobinson2887]

The larger the coin, the the higher the VDI reading. Is the gold content the same in all coins? I have a 900 and no gold of any kind found yet. Thanks.

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

these were just air tests on gold coins. I plan to do another video using silver and gold jewelry on a salt water beach very soon.

[@davidjohnrobinson2887]

I will enjoy watching that. Thanks from the UK.@@Metal-Detecting-NC

Hello there my friend

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Hello Beth. Thank you for sending your friends to my channel.

[@ANDEPO]

very nice and very clear thanks for sharing.... new sub from beth vergara

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you very much for your support. I hope you enjoy the content.

[@TeamLynchBMD]

Great job Mike thanks for sharing. I usually use beach 2 on the beach with my 800 as it hits better on gold 👋👍

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

A buddy of mine with a Nox800 dug a 1 at the ocean. It ended up being a thin gold chain. Dig everything

[@TeamLynchBMD]

@@Metal-Detecting-NC yes I have dug gold on 1 and 2 before

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

@@TeamLynchBMD Most people don't understand that a low signal can indicate gold

[@manleyjoedesjarlais7568]

You should do the same with the frequencys 4 to multi.

[@davidcarlisle3384]

Well, that’s good for surface gold. Hey, I know, why don’t you bury those coins about a foot deep and…….

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

I am still debating with myself whether or not I will bury my gold coins for a test. LoL. I might wrap them in some cling wrap or something. The purpose of this video is simply for VDI numbers, not a depth test.

[@itsallgravy7]

​@MetDetNC oh yeah, I can see why you wouldn't want to dirty these beautiful gold pieces.

[@JustJayFree]

Hi new sub here, Brun Free sent me. 🦘🇦🇺I have a 900 and this was exactly what I was looking for thank you 🙏 I have a permission site where I now have a better chance to pick up my first gold sovereign 🤞😊

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

Thank you. I really hope you find some of that beautiful shiny stuff.

[@jerrydineen2827]

Mike you just won't look right without the AT Pro in your hands!

[@Metal-Detecting-NC]

I use the AT Pro on land, but I needed a good salt water beach machine. The AT Pro does not like salt water wet sand at all.
