@JackFrostTheDeerHunter Год назад

I air tested 6 gold rings. VDI registered between 25 and 36, depending on size. Silver rings tested ranged from 73 to 91, with the 73 being a small silver ring made out of a 1921 Canadian dime. I will see what the numbers are in the ground when the snow is gone.

Hi there @WJUstudent thanks so much for your kind comment, sorry it's taken me so long to reply to. With time and practice you'll be amazing on your brand new equinox 900 im certain. It's all about learning that machine, digging out those targets and even if they are rubbish...that helps you learn as you go! Best of luck and happy hunting for future. I hope to see you on more of my videos again. Cheers heaps🙂⛏️

Awesome video Luke,thankyou.. Ive just recently upgraded to the nox900 from the nox800.. This video has put my mind at ease cheers

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Im really glad you enjoyed watching this video @Thomas Donnelly the new 900 is a ripper machine mate and super easy to use, especially with this quick coin setup. In the oast few months i have had heaps of amazing items coming out, including snake buckles, old silvers the works! Just incredible🙌 I would love to hear your feedback on the new 900 after a few hunts to see what you think to mate. Be sure to give me a yell if any questions👍 Best of luck and happy hunting! Also stay tuned for next week's video...I am hunting a very well worked farm site with the 900 and 6" coil...with some really suprising results👌

@TheCoffeeBushKid Год назад

Well done Luke. Good video. Lots of good info on running the 900. Great for anyone that has just got one. Good haul of coins there mate and not that much trash. Congrats on the silvers. Take care mate 😁👍

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Thanks heaps @The Coffee Bush Kid this was only a very basic setup but works wonders when just wanting to cherry pick mainly for the coins. I was hunting In the goldfields today..and was digging everything that beeped or moved😆...no luck on a sov this time though! Cheers again for watching Andrew, I'm really glad you enjoyed this hunt. Take care until the next mate🙂⛏️👍

@LukeClatworthy Год назад

Another great video Luke. Loved the tips on the best setting(s) to be successful for finding coins using the terrific Equinox 900. Congratulations on the coins you detected. Nothing beats finding some nice quality pre-decimal silvers in trashy areas.

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Thanks heaps @Luke Clatworthy those couple of sneaky silver coins really surprised me, especially considering how much this oval has been detected in the past. The 900 certainly sniffed them out though and a whole lot easier to pick up on running that quick coin setup! I'm really glad you enjoyed watching Luke, take care until the next mate👍🙂⛏️

@Roberto.Giuseppe Год назад

Just got to watch it, great video Luke. Yes the 900 hundred really works well on these detects sites. You know what that means...you need to go over all your sites that have been detected previously. Which means more videos for us to watch!! :)

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Thanks so much for watching @Roberto Giuseppe you are 100% spot on there mate. Tomorrow I am actually returning to an old farm site I have worked to death with the 800 and re hunting with the new 900 and 6"coil. These old farms have gave up a tonne of treasures in the past to but I'm sure there is now more to find with the 900! I cant wait👌 Cheers heaps for watching Rob, take care until the next mate🙂⛏️🤝

@mnech777 11 месяцев назад

Nice job. How do you cope with the 900s iron falsing? Thanks

@TheFishermansJourney Год назад

Tha is heaps for this man! Just grabbed the nox 900 and have been playing around with it in my yard getting all sorts of crazy readings. Tried this setting and found a 1951 half penny in ten mins

@DigItDetecting Год назад

@Luke Cronk you are absolutely welcome mate and so glad to hear that these settings help unearth that coin so easily! Sometimes it's best to cancel out everything below and just concentrate on those higher tones/TiDs. I hope that half penny is the first of many, cheers heaps for watching mate and happy hunting out there👍⛏️

@TheFishermansJourney Год назад

Have you had any issues with depth? I find my 900 doesn’t get very deep

@DigItDetecting Год назад

To be honest, not really mate. I have found that so far the 900 punches quite deep, even in built up EMI areas. I recently shot a video hunting at an old school oval and only running the 900 at 23 or so sensitivity, I was still managing to dig 10 or more inches deep and hitting on coins👌 That was with the 11inch coil.

@TheFishermansJourney Год назад

@@DigItDetecting I get nothing but heaps of messy noise still on mine and fine that excess noise only start to leave if I drop around 15 sensitivity or less. And tried scanning under my coil with me wedding ring and it struggles to scan much more then 3 inches or so away

@TheFishermansJourney Год назад

@@DigItDetecting so just tested with that 1951 half penny and j don’t get a reading any further then about 5 inches and that’s out of the ground

@Metal_Detecting_Nz Год назад

Hey Luke, I've been using these setting for a bit now thanks!. Generally don't even dig much in the 90s. Seems to be 60 to mid 80s is the penny's and silvers, I was told the three pence is in the 30s tho? Anyways my friends were running there sensitivity at 10 where I had mine at 25, was stable there but still quite trashy common ground/park. I'm hearing targets everywhere! Its very busy on my ears and sometimes hard to hear the good targets. Alot of falsing. Would running at 10 just mask out alot of useless noise or am I missing something here? They get more coins than I do too lol. Any advice would be great! Im using the 900. They using a manticore. Thanks mate 👍

@pickaxminingexploration3208 Год назад

Thanks for the great video. Bought 2 Nox 900's, one for my disabled friend and one fir me. Just getting the 900 set up and came across your video. Sure helps, I'm sure once i play around with it and know it well like i do my Samsung Note 20, I'll be feeling pretty good with lots of confidence like i have with my smartphone. Keep up the great work! 🤠

@thegarbagegladiators4735 Год назад

I managed to watch all of this vid. Great job on the retention rate bud. I have some 1800s french coins? they say pence and stuff. Didn't find Detecting , but I got them at different yard sales n such. My oldest is 1738 big silver french coin i think. It has a small hole in center tho. They probably made a necklace out of it. Thanks.

@DigItDetecting Год назад

I am really glad you enjoyed my latest video @The Garbage Gladiators hopefully the tips shared can help a few out there for future detecting mate. Wow 1738 is going back quite a few years to, a great one to have in the collection! I also love going to the old markets on a Sunday and browsing for treasures, just never know what you might come across🙂 Thanks again for watching mate, I look forward to chatting again in future adventures👍⛏️

@customvansixtyfive8337 9 месяцев назад

Great video and brilliant settings, I started using them too, also hunting in low freqs. I also prefer to use my pinpointer in vibrate only, it's loud enough. We have "gold" 1 dollar coins too, but people don't really carry them. Or drop them. They do, but not like the quarter. 🤔

@DigItDetecting 9 месяцев назад

Im really glad you enjoyed watching this video @customvan sixtyfive some easy settings there to help get people started and very simple to use! Great to hear you find them useful. Those gold coins do add up quick, as I'm sure the quarters do also when finding them detecting. Best of luck and happy digging out there mate🙂⛏️

@TheViewInWellington Год назад

I would start at vdi40. For those silver thrupences. And add in 35 for the Gold have sovs.

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Great suggestion @TheViewInWellington the later silver Threepences do come in around the 40 range but so do alot of the pull tabs and bottle tops, which i like to avoid around the ovals. I am detecting in the goldfields tomorrow though and will be digging it all, 36 and 50 included. Both gold sov numbers on the new 900👍 Cheers heaps for watching mate!

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Wow wow wow @Neil Dejewski I am so happy for you and so pleased to read your comment!😁 Those settings certainly help cut between the trash and single out the good targets👌 Good to be digging out those lower 30s at decent sites where possible to, all the chances of finding those gold rings. Best of luck, happy hunting mate👍⛏️

Hi...new suscriptor i jus got my nox 900 yesterday, i would like to find old coins...OLD COINS ARE DEEPER THAN MODERN COINS ??? THANKS !

@Lakeman23 Год назад

Thanks for the video!! If the area is not trashy would you change the settings? if so, what settings would you use?

@DigItDetecting Год назад

Im really glad you enjoyed watching @Neil Dejewski if the area you are hunting is not to trashy, best to drop your recovery speed down to 4-5 and run your iron bias low at 0 or even 1 (if digging to much rust) Cover the ground low and slow and it will help you uncover those good targets with ease. Not to say you won't get a bit of rubbish in between, but that's half the fun of detecting. Enjoy mate👍⛏️

What settings would you use for beach detecting

Just beach mode 2 @Bert Taylor and adjust your sensitivity up as much as possible (without to much EMI interference) for best depth👍

@Ben24784 11 месяцев назад

Hi mate, i have the 900, whats the difference in the coils? When or why would one use the 6 inch smaller coil? Thanks

@DigItDetecting 11 месяцев назад

Hi there @Ben the main difference between the little 6 inch coil and the standard 11, would be firstly the obvious. Smaller 6" coil means less weight and easier to swing for longer periods, plus helps get in amongst rocks and branches alot easier being small and nimble. However the main benefits of the 6" coil would be the fact that it cover less ground, therefore allowing it to get In-between all those signals when hunting trashy sites. The big 11inch coil, as you can imagine is having to pick up and feedback alot more signals at any one given time, as opposed to the little 6 being able to individualise and separate those targets alot easier. Therefore making it alot easier for you to read the ground and hit on those nice signals even when hunting a very rubbishy area. I really hope this helps mate and be sure to check out some more of my previous videos, where I go hunting with the 6" coil on the Equinox and show it in action! It's a killer combo👌 All the best mate, I hope to catch you on that next adventure very soon👍⛏️

Nice hunt! Man you were pulling coins left and right. Here in the states pulling a gold coin would be the holy grail, are those gold coins worth a lot of money just based on there weight? I have the vanquish 540 and leaning toward the 900 upgrade. Thanks for your content!

I am sorry its taken me so long to reply @John Spooner i kept meaning to...but kept forgetting sorry mate. This was such a fantastic hunt to and am so glad you enjoyed watching!
