I'm from Michigan and I'm excited to start using my detector again, hopefully soon. you've helped me realize, that while I might not find any relics from wars, there's still great finds to be had. just have to buy a battery pack for my whites spectrum xlt, then I can get to it once more. I'd love to go hunting with you sometime if you're ever in the Capitol area of Michigan.
The broken coin that you said was from a charm bracelet is actually a Coin from Asia, I do not remember which country but my father used to have several of them, I do not know what happened to them after he died in 1974, but it is probably pretty old.
I lived in Michigan from 1980-2017, moved to Florida, ordered my metal detector & I can't believe I didn't have one up north! So excited waiting on Amazon Prime!
i'm from Michigan (Monroe) loved the video....i have the AT PRO...haven't found any real good jewelry but it sure gets your heart beating when see the gold....Happy hunting
It was a cool summer last year. That cold water shrinks the fingers,causing rings to go bye bye. Cant feel their fingers till too late. I have been hunting Northern Mi beaches for years. Found many treasures up here. Found a 14k gold bracelet,gave it to my sister to match her necklace,was a dolphin bracelet. very heavy.
Truth is? ovdr 90% are Tossed by Cheated On Girls.. and/or by Divorcedwomen.. or for collecting the Insurance.. Its always Insured for more than its worth.
That ring really was a heart stopper. The only rings I have found yet have been kids rings and it is still exciting to find them. Just found your channel and subbed you. I am also going start posting vids of some of my hunts as soon as I can figure out how to edit them. GL & HH
Great footage, nice finds. I have the AT Pro and it is one heck of a great machine. I like to hunt school grounds. For me they have been good ring bearers. Three Gold and a few more Sterling of Silver ones. Regardless , it is great to get out and have a good time.
Good video. The Jane Seymour ring with the white and black diamonds was a really cool find. Too bad the bigger ring wasn't also real diamonds. That would have been killer!
I went with the F2 over the Ace 250 after doing a lot of research and review reading. I know they're both good machines but had to pick one. I love the f2 for beach Hunting. works good found me a big fat nice 14 karat gold chain.
Lane: at the 13:05 point, that broken coin is Chinese minted in Peking (the rings on the left side) and is from the 1600s to 1700s. I would love to see the obverse to know exactly. The reference is Google - old Chinese coins - Coins of China the CH'ING dynasty, Calgary Coin Gallery. I just found one from the Emperor Kao Tsung, AD 1736-1795 a few days ago and saw a facebook with your. BTW I have subscribed to your site.....Huck
I agree 100% I returned a 9 thousand dollar ring 3 weeks ago. Her name was inside the ring I asked Pentwater DNR lady said where did you find it? I said near the children playground. And she said a woman was histarical last Labor Day weekend her name was Kara. I said say her name again? Kara? Her husbands name is Dustin. “she left her phone # she’s from sound bend Indiana” ok well can I get her # she provided it,, I texted Happy 4th “WHO IS THIS” “Do you feel like coming back to Pentwater” “No that vacation was horrible for me my husband just paid off the reason why I hate that area” “ really? It’s so beautiful here and well I think I can make you believe in humanity and believe this area is the most beautiful in Michigan” sent her a pic and well the rest is in the video.
I bought a used Whites xlt back in mid 90s for 500 bucks.......friends told me what a waste of money.....so I had to prove them wrong...... I was a union plumber doing new construction in Merrillville,In.....while pulling in the driveway of a duplex housing unit.. I noticed a woman next door to our jobsight ....she said she lost something in the thick grass .Later that week on my break and lunch hours, I found out it was a 8k diamond and gold bracelet she lost in her back yard.She searched for it for many hours on her hands and knee's with no luck.I said I bet I could find it in no time.....! I found it in mins.....she handed me a benji.Not bad for 11 minutes of work..My co worker got all jealous and wanted me to split the money with him.I told him to take a hike...lol....I was hooked from that moment on....!!
I live 30 minutes from silver beach and 45 from warren dunes, I've detected silver beach a couple times only finding clad and fishing tackle but I may have to bring the detector to the dunes haha.
I remember when i bought a water scoop like that... I stepped on it and crushed it like a tin can lol I used to be a land hunter also but eventually after 5 years moved to water also... Got the right equipment and it is worth it... Great finds! The not real one was still fun..
good vid, thanks for sharing. to the 2 people that left the thumbs down dislike, get a clue n get a life. try treasure hunting and makin vids before you be so negative.
The cross is definitely a recent drop. Diamonds on a 84$ ring? I think you mean zirc's? Nice ring though! Too bad the heartstopper is junk. I hate it when that happens. I've got a few md video's on my channel. I think you'll like them. I got lucky a lot lately.. Good luck and happy hunting!
I did have an Ace250. It's a great starter machine, but won't do well to get old, deeper targets. This was especially true for where I hunt. The AT-Pro does better separating and going a bit deeper.
+dtiydr buy what you can afford for now, hunt and sell some of the finds, eventually, you'll be able to get a better machine. go back to your old hunting grounds and see what else you find.
Mike Van Leeuwen I have never searched before so I dont have any hunting ground yet. But I had the same thought as you mention so I bought a Ace 350 some month ago and got the permits needed to even use it where I live but I have not had the time to test it yet which is so annoying but one day.
Yep - in America. It's a great place...hopefully you can come visit some day. Anyway, this ring was found on the shores of Lake Michigan in the state of Michigan.
Wow nice finds. I've dug some cheap rings too, and they are no less fun to dig then a nice legit one.. Sure afterwards it's not as much valuable on the market, but for me personally it's about the experience, and a cheap one can get your heart racing too.. Check out a lost gold ring I found for a guy, on my channel..
WOW!!! I lost that cross when I was in high-school, it was a necklace that my grandmother gave me that's amazing I thought I lost it completely different places
You should take that fake ring with you every time you take someone out metal detecting for the first time, and toss it out somewhere where they can find it and trick them into thinking that they found a really valuable ring. Yes I know it's mean, but is pretty damn funny too
+Jim Bowling You should be able to find stuff down to 6 inches with no problems. The main issue with the ACE250 is target separation. It can't differentiate between multiple targets which are close to each other in the ground. And so you will miss a lot of good stuff. The name of the game in metal detecting is answering the question, "Should I dig this?" If you dig everything, you are wasting time on bad targets and never getting to the good targets. (not a problem if you have unlimited time) Having a detector which can give you good information about a target so that you are digging more good stuff is very helpful. The ACE250 is an entry level machine with entry level performance. If you get one, and you are serious about this hobby, you will trade up for a better machine. Hope this helps, and good luck!
+BeamDigger I will be mostly for leisure, just something to do.... If not the ace250, can you recommend one... Unless i hit pay dirt, it will be the only one ill buy.. . Id probably take to beach on vacation as well, living in Kentucky not much sandy beaches lol... My hunts would be in local parks and play grounds..
That is definitely a real ring with a real diamond you can always tell real jewelry because Fake doesn’t have a writing for one and two real diamonds always need a hole on the bottom of the setting to breath
the black "end cap" @11:20 is a bicycle pump part fwiw guideimg.alibaba.com/images/shop/107/03/13/0/zefal-replacement-pump-rebuild-kit-hpx-73_3898480.jpg
If u want to try out a nicer sand scoop that doesn't cost too much u should go to royal mfg. Ind website, they make gold prospecting equipment and metal detecting sand baskets, they have steel and stainless steel ones, hope this helps someone Nathan
Where in Michigan do you live? Head up to Traverse City in the summer time. Sleeping Bear Dunes were rated top ten best beaches in the world not many years ago by good morning America. Plenty to do for anyone in the family
Todd Seaburg I live in southern Michigan. Don't get me wrong, up north is beautiful, Traverse City, Petoskey, etc. You should look at Iargo Springs on the east side of the state. Anyways, I just wondered what draws people here.
+Todd Seaburg thunder bay is my favorite..Michigan is beautiful..lived thee 38 yrs..moved to north California 4 yrs ago..love it here too but different like love for apples and potato chips..hehehe
Found a UndergroundLine that was Hooked up to a Homeowners Pump that sucks water from the Lake to Water His Lawn ( its Illegal) , so, since it wasn't working? I Plugged it up ...kLove to o that to the Rich People..As if not Rich enough..
Stop grinding scratches into your coins!!! Seriously! You can literally erase hundreds and even thousands of dollars of value in some coins just because you don't have the patience to take a minute and do it right. 🙄 If you had an MS-69 (or 70) of certain coins from certain years, they can be worth thousands, whereas an MS-64 of the same year and mint would be worth $50. And even if a coin is newer, still research it. A 1983-D quarter in MS-68 or higher can be worth over $15,000. And Michigan clay is *great* at preserving. I found a pull tab Gatorade can from when they first came out and it was immaculate. After I took some Dawn and warm water to it, it looked like someone just pulled it out of the fridge.
