The smart way to find coins with a metal detector Pt1 

This was great Gary. I really hope that people who want to start metal detecting will take your advice to heart about avoiding the cheap detectors. As you pointed out there is so much junk advice on the internet over what a good detector is, especially the sites with lists that are supposedly updated to 2022. If you're reading this and are looking to buy a metal detector for the first time, take your time and read as much as can. Eventually, you will get a better idea on how best to invest your money based on your budget. Don't be afraid to ask reputable dealers what they think. People will always have some difference of opinion but as a whole you will eventually find the top detector for your dollar.

Very good Gary - you have a very natural way of putting the info across simply and without fuss - and that makes for a great video - hope all well!

Great video, Gary. This is stuff every detectorist should know.

always a pleasure watching you sir! you explain everything in such a calm manner, like a teacher

As always Gary your tutorials are leaps and bounds ahead of the countless others out there, RU-vid seems to be full of mediocre garbage now! You clearly take the time to think out, plan and execute your videos and it is very much appreciated the world over. I'm almost 5 years deep in my XP detecting journey now and its 'mostly' been a pleasure having come over from Garrett. Always look forward to your professional work

Nox user here..Never owned an Xp product, but I hope Xp fully appreciate what an asset they have in Gary.. Really excellent videos by a person who is a credit to the hobby!

Very informative video mate. Good advice for those coming in to the hobby.

I’ve eyed the ORX for awhile…it seems to me to one HELL of a machine at the price point and for what it has been shown to do. Very nice informational again Gary, fantastic!

Thanks for the video.. but you should check your finds.. its an Edward the 7th lol Great tips. 👍 Wireless headphones make a massive difference.. and a good spade!

I went from AT Pro to XP Deus hf what a difference wish I had just got the Deus in the first place now I also have the Deus 2 which I really like also

Great video Gary. I been detecting for 35 yrs and hunted with nearly all brands. The advice I give a newbie is this. Buy the best detector you can afford, and to me the very most important thing is, after you get it it, get out and hunt with. Dig all repeatable signal so u know the numbers and how the signal sounds. Spend as much time as you possibly can and soon you will know ur detector and have less chance of getting frustrated and tossing itt into the back of your closet

Another good video full of advice. When i buy detectors i always buy the best of the type. If not i wont buy one. I started in 2003 and bought the Explorer XS instead of S , E.Trac instead of Safari and Goldmaxx Power instead of lesser models. From 2009 i had most of the time an ET and a Deus 1 . Now i still have the ET but have the Deus 11 . I have had quite a few other machines that do a bit of what i want but only the ET and Deus 11 do almost all what i want . I find them the perfect combination. Some shops will say buy a cheaper model of the same machine (like the Nox 600 instead of the 800 or the ORX instead of the Deus 1 etc) So they can get used to detecting or will end up going back to the shop for an upgrade. But there can be a risk of some being put off the hobby by bad or not so good machines . Sometimes its best just to go in all guns blazing and buy the best you can straight away. But you need to know your limits .

A fascinating and informative video. Many thanks.

Excellent video. Very informative.👍

Gary I've invested in a 3d locking shoe for the remort stops it coming off when pushing to hard on the butt.well worth the money. Having the same problem with the deus 1 now having the deus 11.

it was an Edward Gary 👍

Always a good interesting video Gary. Len

Thanks for the interesting video, good job of warning new buyers about those misleading reviewers/toysellers ATB

Nice XP Deus was my first top end machine lots to learn on this machine Orx also heard good things too

I had the eqinox 800. But sold it. This xp deus ll is better. But to be honest my old ctx 3030 is amazing. And the xy screen in xp deus ll is some kind of information... Still learning the xp deus ll. But still the ctx is an other level so far....

Great intro. You are right, all of these "best" adds are for cheap toys.

Great video good advice 👍

Great advice Gary 👍

Nice finds Gary. Great tips. The majority of our coins come in at 84 and above here in the USA. Gold coins and small silver, lower VDI's. If you notch, for silver, not Disc, you can really get on the deep silver. My silver count got higher. Not saying to notch every hunt, but if your limited on time, notch. The XPD platform will find those deep silvs. Good Luck all.

A lot of great advice there again

hi, thank you Gary for these tips, I have some comments : measured conductivity is mostly due to surface eddy currents. This means that : the interface between target and the soil, the surface of the target, the shape, ... will change the measured conductivity. X,Y display on Deus II is also very helpful, if you are searching only for coins, dig only for targets giving straight line. Aluminum forms are the worst targets, measure conductivity can vary from ~60 to 94 on a Deus II & also displaying a straight line on Deus II X/Y display. It maybe useful to cross the scan, and notice that the measure conductivity is in the same range (+/- 2) and that X/Y display, displays a straight line in both direction . Another tip for conductive soil is to dig the first 10cm and scan again.

kann ich nur zustimmen ... wer billig kauft kauft zweimal ...ich habe den xpdeus 1/2 und einen ctx3030!

Enjoyed the video

the round black x35 coil has better battery life or the white hf coil? idont know what to choose with a orx machine

New sub ! Liked ✌️😀

Wise words from a wise man. Deus All the way. Lightest detector there is out there on the market and I can’t recommend it enough.

I commented on this video when it came out and had to get back to you about the guy that introduced me to XP. You might know him, Brad Martin from Vermont. He made medal detecting look so much fun. Well, take a run over to his RU-vid channel and check out what he found. The video is his latest. Green Mountain Metal Detecting. Nice guy, that actually just spent a week in the UK with Chill Bill in March.

Looking forward to Prt2, a little scared your not showing the XP Deus 2?

Blooper alert Gary . 1907 is an Edward V11 LOL

Totally agree 👏👍🤝

Nice Edward George coin.

Excellent Video and really good advice.You are better off with a quality used detector than a new cheap rubbish machine.Happy Hunting.Jerry.

I ripped a couple of those websites new A**holes for putting those cheap Chinese metal detectors in the top 10! Those sites are so misleading and turn people away from metal detecting because when they buy those cheap machines and don’t find anything, they lose interest,not to mention the money that they dished out to buy those cheap pieces of crap! I could never understand why people would do reviews and recommendations on things that they know nothing about.

I might get that xp deus II

Hello Gary am new to metal detecting was looking to get my first metal detector I was looking at the Nokta makro legend,have you used this, or is there a better choice, have about £1000 to spend, any help be great full,am in the north west uk,

I love xp but your metal detectors arnt really begginer friendly, something like a simplex, a vanquish, or xterra pro would bemuch better for a begginer And it sucks that I can't find a deus 1 anywhere I have looked in canada, seems to be discontinued here in favour of the orx and deus 2, but the deus 2 can't use the smaller HF coil that the deus 1 and orx can use

I have a question gary is the deus 2 and more powerful than the deus 1 ?

ORX хаааарошь 👍

Selling detectors, RU-vid posters sold thousands of Garret detectors. I have detected for 42 years with the same brand of detector, (Not Garrett) Detecting has changed and is a world of difference. OH detectors have changed alot! and hardly at all. How we detected in the 80's is hardly like today, How we detected in the 80's is still how we detect today! Confused? People coming into the hobby today have people who have detected for decades to learn (RU-vid) from, We didn't have the internet, We had "Magazines" and that was about it. We were using VLF-TR detectors, Then (New) Motion, ground balance Discrimination was used and abused. I knew people who discriminated nickels out just to beat iron bottle caps, Silver hunting. "Iron bottle caps?" OH! Well since then they have rusted away leaving a rust shadow, Changed things. What can I add to the hobby for the beginner, Settings and dig, don't dig ALL DEPEND on where you are hunting. Every location has it's own set of rules. This (Zero disclination) of Garrett users depending on numbers and tones is 90% of hunting with any brand of detector these days. Biggest problem with new People is they don't understand what they think is going to be a good spot, Well People have been hunting that same ground for 50 years! You are going to have too get creative and work for it. One thing I will say about detectors these days, There's A LOT OF PROFIT manufactures are making on selling "Dreams" Which is People will think they can hit the lottery just by spending big money. (RU-vid) advertising by People who really are just selling a brand by making it look easy.

عالی ❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥❤️

Why has it taken so long to have all the Deus II accessories available? It's been almost a year and we can't afford to buy some headphones, what's going on? this is vastly disappointing from a company.

I'm waiting the orx down the price.. wen he cust 500 euros i buy a XP orx.. i still waiting... 😔

Molto interessante. E ‘ possibile avere il doppiaggio o sottotitoli in italiano? Grazie!

Simplex is a great bang for the buck.

Going to get a Deus 2 on the credit card and my mrs is gonna kill me 🤣🤣

So basically by super cheap machine and dig all so do not miss the good targets between the trash 🤣🤣🤣 only joking, thank you for as always a clear informative video 🥳🥳🥳

Ha! It’s a George! Sorry Gary !

Never mind. Found it on how to find coins.
