Metal Detecting since 1981 Best thing i found metal detecting is the thing i truly enjoy.

I had one of those Tecnetics Delta's, sold it , I thought it was only good for Tot Lots! Later I realized it was probably our Iron core coins here in Canada!
Congrats! It's still great to see different detectors over the same ground and what turns up. You definitely get to know your machines well and lock in on more good finds. Great hunt. 👍
You're going to love that T2, it's an awesome machine along with its big brother the f75. One of the most complete machines ever made in my opinion and many others would agree. I don't know if your model has BP mode but that kicks it into another depth level all together if it does. T2 for the score!
Wow! Congratulations on the 2 silver Washingtons. I keep telling myself I don’t need another machine! (I have 7 already). 😅 I look forward to more T2 videos.
@@WeirdGuyInPark you can use sensitivity 99 without any problem if there is no problem with EMI, it is only necessary to perform ground balance to low sensitivity, I have the feeling that setting the sensitivity to 99 will increase the power as if there were some other power boost, but this is just my feeling :-)
You never need 99 sensitivity lol Nice hunt Glad them settings worked for you buddy. Just got an f75+ yesterday. The silver tone has an unmistakable finish to it on these machines. Very pronounced whispiness
Ya i started out around 85 and it was nice and quite so i continued to up the sens until i got to 99...It was still running stable..Not much EMI there..
Nice hunt my friend, seems like a nice little machine. Congrats on the silver quarters 👍 I'll be laid up for a little while had to have emergency surgery done Tuesday morning and I need to take it easy for awhile 😢
The good old 12 to 14 Khz detectors like the T2, Tesoro Vaquero, and even the tesoro golden sabre ( for someone on a budget) with a big enough coils, are simply a good sweet spot for pulling deep old coins, the older 4 - 6.59 Khz were better for coins but, the 12 - 14 Khz offer a better discrimination. TBH since using the newer modern metal detectors, the Legend in my case, i lost the joy and itch for metal detecting, kinda wanna pull my old detectors out just to get me back into the hobby.
Coin roll hunters in the United states HATE Canadain quarters because they see the nickel edge instead of the copper edge and think it's silver Sometimes the nickel coins darken a lot in the ground, get quite the toning
Thanks for reviewing this detector! I was so impressed by your video, that I got one from Amazon at a great price with a coupon. I took it to a local park where I live and found quarters,dimes,nickels,zinc & copper pennies and assorted other things. Most coins I found were 4-6 “ but one quarter was at 8+ . No problem at all with ground minerals or emi ! Really impressive for a less than $200.00 detector! I have more expensive ones ( Etrac, V3i, etc), but this one can definitely find the goodies. Pin point is pretty accurate. My only negative is it does not discriminate zinc very well when notched out ? Not sure why ? But otherwise works great. Thanks for your videos, hope you keep them coming. Dan in Florida
Bro update it to 278 i love if your not pinpointing correctly 91 is almost every time a quarter get the latest update it's way more stable and turn your iron volume up to 4 it would have rejected that bottle cap
Nice hunt my friend with some cool finds, congrats on the silver ring. I got out Sunday for a few hours and 5-10 minutes into the hunt I pulling a silver Figaro chain. I didn't even hear the chain I was in all metal mode on the Vanquish and was digging everything, pulled a large rusted nut scanned the hole again and it was a few inches away from the nut.
Nice hunt! You truly never know what is going pop out of the ground. Fun watch you hunt with the Simplex. I sold mine to my digging buddy, so I can use it whenever I want. I might have to do it soon. I dug a bunch of good targets with it. Cheers from Bridgeport, Connecticut!
I’ve put MANY MANY hours on a t2 LTD. You will find that sensitivity doesn’t need to be over 80 really ever. 60 will suffice most times. The lower the tone count the deeper it goes. Boost Process at 60-80 sens is incredibly deep. I’ve dug civil war bullets at 14-15” in mild soil. 3-4 tone will be your friend in a park. Always run disc 0. Let the tones do the work. Tones are tied to depth. 1 =deepest ( you must have disc at 38-40) Delta= shallowest. The F75 was a better equipped machine overall. It had the tones separate from the process. If you really want a stallion of a machine, try the f70/patriot. It is the most powerful machine I’ve used. The problem is that power is hard to learn. Those are all good machines especially for relic hunting, but the XP machines, Nokta, and Minelabs have over came them in separation, ID, stability, and versatility. I may grab an f75 of fisher doesn’t do something else. The t2 f75 may be the most ergonomic machines ever made, with the exception of the DEUS perhaps. Pretty equal in my book. If you ever hunt iron patches nothing touches a D1/D2. The Legend/triple score and the Manticore/elite are right there though. Manticore is a monster.
Thanks for this info...Iv'e only had it out in my own yard so far..So your saying run 0 disc if i'm in 3 or 4 tone and run 38 to 40 disc if im in 1 tone?
@@WeirdGuyInPark yes that’s right. 0 disc is important because it keeps the machine opened up. Of course in 1 tone you need the disc to be your tone break essentially. So, iron will be muted at 40 and anything over that is non ferrous. The t2 is technically deepest at that tone selection, aside from boost process. But really I’ve dug many coins in the 8-10” range using 3 tone. And dang it I just ordered an f75+😅. I have a couple old videos on my channel of the t2. Check em out if you’d like. For the hunting I see in your videos, 3/4 tone will be your friend. Sens no more than 85 or even lower is just fine.
T2 is still a good detector, even here in European conditions, very good for our small silver hammered coins, DP is not as deep as 1+/2+ tones and so very sparky in iron junk, Boost mode in all metal mode is a beast for depth ;-) , also is necessary to work with hum/treshold level is connectec with power of detector also in discrimination mode
I've owned a couple T2 machines and it's one of the best coin shooters there is. For me four tone mode was the best and if you get a high tone in that mode almost a guarantee there's a coin hiding in the junk. The discrimination knob has a couple different breakpoints you need to know about and there's a lot of videos online about it. No doubt that's the reason you found that nickel again because of the great separation abilities of that machine.
Nice! The t2 is a pretty good machine! I really like first texas stuff. Can't wait to see your future videos with the t2. They do make an arm strap for it that can be purchased separately. It loops around the wings to provide the strap over top. Great video!
