We were very lucky that the storm didn't hit us too hard! The beaches are eroded, and the water was nasty, but I was still able to get in and find some treasures!!!
The gear used today is the Minelab Manticore paired with the Xtreme Titanium All Terrain Plus scoop.

Enjoy watching your sunny hunts. I am a Brit detectorist since '77. Many people watching this will not appreciate the long hours of finding nothing but trash and the perceverance it takes in order to strike the good stuff. (It looks so much easier than it is!) I detect the fields and forests around my home in Normandy now. (Beaches in Normandy come with hazards for obvious reasons. lol) My oldest silver is 100 B.C though the average age is 17th century. The oldest gold is also 100-ish B.C and most of my gold finds are 14th century hammered coins. Youngest gold is 1808. Age, like everything else, is relative. Good hunting. Nothing is better than a good signal. I am getting a bit older now so hunts are shorter....but it sure is hard to stop when the signals are good.

I think that most people don't realize that. I don't want to bore them with hours of me finding trash! 😂 I'll include a few pieces in each video, but I should probably start including the trash dump at the end

@@DetectFlorida Yes, that would be a good idea. It would also show the service you do in removing potentially hazardous trash from the beach.

This is such fun!! Always loved a treasure hunt!! When I was a kid, I spent Sunday afternoons with my grandparents. My grandpa wanted my girlfriend and I OUT OF THE HOUSE. HE HAD A GIANT COIN JAR. AND HE WOULD CARRY IT TO THE FRONT YARD AND GRAB HANDFULS OF COINS AND TOSS THEM IN THE GRASS. MY buddy and I would spend the whole afternoon hunting coins in the grass. We had a ball, he had piece and quiet 🤐 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 CONSIDERING ALLOWANCES WERE .50 a week, we thought we were rich!

I don't understand how people still wear jewelry to the beach?! I'm glad that you can detect it. When you find old jewelry (like the earring) what do you do with it? Impossible to give it back. Do you clean it up and sell it? I think that it would be cool to keep all of the treasures that you are unable to reunite with their original owners. You must have quite an impressive collection!
@DetectFlorida
@DetectFlorida 9 месяцев назад
I've never sold any of my finds. I keep the non-precious items in ring boxes and display cases, and the gold and platinum goes into a safety deposit box. I have no intentions of selling any of it because it's so much fun to look through everything and remember the adventures when I found those items :)

The bent quarter, a followup. 😎 I live where that bent quarter was dug and I just dug a bent quarter in about the same spot dated 1967. No corrosion on it. But lots of corrosion on most quarters here. Fresh drops have no corrosion, also any coin that was so deep in the sediment that no oxygen gets to it. No matter how old. So what was the date on the bent quarter?

@DetectFlorida
@DetectFlorida 9 месяцев назад
Awesome! I use a GoPro mounted to an elastic head strap. I've used the cheaper head straps from amazon, but they don't hold up as well as the GoPro branded one. As far as editing goes, I use Adobe Premiere Pro. It's professional grade software, so it's very confusing and difficult to use when you start out. But I found that watching the RU-vid tutorial videos on the software was a huge help. Even after editing 80 something videos, I still feel like a rookie!

@@ailynpages6236 That's awesome! The X-terra pro is an awesome machine for the money, but you'll be struggling in and near the saltwater. Its a machine better suited for land and freshwater only. I'm not saying that you can't use it near the saltwater, but expect the machine to perform erratically and give a lot of false signals. A Nokta Legend or a Minelab Equinox 700 are the bare minimum machines that I would suggest if you plan on hunting saltwater. Hope that helps!

The numbers correspond to a metal or alloy. It gives an indication of what the item is before you dig it. It helps out a lot when you're digging in areas with lots of trash, or if you're looking for a specific item. You can "cherry pick" certain targets if you know what numbers you're looking for
