How To: Find More Silver in Public Parks!
มุมมอง 3K3 ปีที่แล้ว
In this video I break down the top five locations to find silver coins in old parks. As many of my followers know I primarily hunt old parks. Most of the parks I metal detect have been hunted hard by 100's or even 1000's of detectorists over the last 40-50 years. I have managed to find hundreds of silver coins in these parks left behind by other detectorists. I wanted to pass along my experienc...

    I go to gold2, which I alternate with the field2 program and I have it set according to my profile, because of the sound for the given ID. I hardly use other programs, unless there is a more serious problem. The only thing that matters to me anymore is the correctly set recovery speed for the given location. I think this is something that many searchers miss. More videos about Recovery speed in the field would be useful for the minelab community. 😏👌

    What do you think of the Minelab Vanquish 250? I've seen quite a few reviews on hers of the Dr Otek saying it's rubbish at Pinpointing and very vague. This will be my first detector, many thanks Vivienne

    I been using field 1, but i been doing a lot of farm land exploring. I have not tried a park field yet. I still get nails and lead chunks, but i think going for copper coins that are deep it will happen.. Somtimes i wait for a lot of rain to soak the ground, and spots that i been over before i found new coins. I bet if the ground is wet, my equinox can do a good 7-9 inches, just have to slow down when you get a good blimp or a chirp on the machine and go over it a lot, then you can get the deeper targets i feel like.

    • @detectorben8007
      @detectorben8007 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Custom meaning I set the disc how I like it. I notch out certain segments that I don't like to hear or dig. These days I run wide open with no discrimination most the time. Unless the area is so trashy that I get overloaded with signals.

  • @stijndavid-gn6qk
    @stijndavid-gn6qk ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello Ben, to find the coins, do you always do a 360 degree check around the target before digging, or just a 90 degree? Thanks a lot!!

    • @detectorben8007
      @detectorben8007 ปีที่แล้ว

      Always best to do 360 sweep. But I often dig after a good 90 degree sweep if it sounds really clean and signal is consistent.

    Are you running multi untill you get a odd signal. Or are you just running in 4khz the whole time? What are the disadvantages if you do?

    • @detectorben8007
      @detectorben8007 ปีที่แล้ว

      I run multi most times and switch to 4k to check deep signals. But I believe in this video I was running 4k most the hunt in an area I had found very deep silver in the past.

  • @detectorguy4565

    When digging that close to your finds almost always guarantees a scratch. Dig your holes a little wider and try and come up from under your target will be better. Thanks for sharing at 4 khz
