One of the best videos iv seen. Recommend viewing. Great job Dave
Thanks Joe!
Absolutetly the best video on the Deus I have seen. Thanks!!!
Need to check out the XP Skill School with Gary Blackwell. He is the Master of the Deus and ORX
@@XPTeamUSA I agree his videos are good, but his detecting is in the UK and not the same as gold jewelry hunting in parks here in the US. Aluminum has probably caused many people to give up detecting. This video really helps.
One of the most educative vids out there! Thank you!
Thanks John! Glad you liked it. Hope it leads you to more treasures.
Extremely helpful! Thank you!
Thanks Barrett! Glad it helped.
This is a great method for these videos. Giving the sound, as well as a view of the display on the box is definitely the way to go to really show what's going on. Thanks for the information.
Glad it helped!
Great tips Dave, really appreciate them. Thanks.
Hope they helped! Thanks for watching!
very informative thanks for your contribution
Thanks for your Video! To Show us to explain signals! Great Show! 👏🏼 thx from austria
Great tips Dave, thanks for sharing
Thanks Sheldon!
Really good video, Dave! Great demo and easy to understand.
Thanks Grant!
Incredible demonstration of skill and playing the odds in your favor. My Deus1 is coming in a couple days, this has been UNBELIEVABLY helpful,thank you!!
Glad it was helpful from Wisconsin myself.
Fantastic and really enjoyed this and thank you so much for sharing it.
Thanks Joe!
Very helpful. Thank you.
Very professional video, love the great tips !!
Thanks Al!
Talk about a master of their machine, very impressive.
Thank You Doug! Glad you liked it!
Thank you very much, It was very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it! Thanks
Man you are great....Learned so much..youve saved my back...
Thanks Rocky. Check out my other You tube channel. XPress Metal Detecting with Dave D.
Great information!
Keep the videos coming
Thanks! Will do.
Thanks for the tip
Glad I could help!
Excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you Sir!
Fabulous job and great video!
Thank you very much Dan!
Very helpful Dave.
Thanks Steve!
Great video! Very helpful
Thanks Steve! Glad it helped.
A VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO putting the odds in your favour Thank you from the uk
Thanks for watching. Hope it works for you.
Super video 👍🏼 Very helpful - Thanks 😉
Thank you Claus!
this video made understanding the deus so much easier tried it on the last hunt and got more coins than trash, cheers
Thanks for the feed back Dave! I'm really glad it helped you out.
Great #xpdeus masterclass sir, really enjoyed it.
Thanks Gary!
Wat you think gary
Dude thank you so much.. Just bought an xp orx and you've helped so much
Hope it helps Rocky
@Mike s I was using the Deus for this video but it also works with the ORX
Well done D. I have had the XP Deus for a couple of months now and really enjoy it. I to have had those junk days, but started to really push myself to hear what the unit is telling me. So junk factor has dropped. This video reinforces and is very helpful to the VDI and tone nuances. Deeper targets are a bit more challenging for sure as the ground soaks up coil energy. Really enjoyed this video.
Thank you for those kind words. Glad you liked it!
Good tips so thanks for doing that, Congratulations on finding
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Great video Dave. Much appreciated!! Looking forward to moving up from my ORX to the Deus!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
This was very worthwhile watching. Hi from New Zealand.
Thanks Clancy!
Will do!
very good video. thanks alot for your efforts in helping everyone dig better targets
Thanks Troy!
Thank you ,the real deal dave d
Too kind David! Thank you.
Great Video !! Thank you very much from Italy.
This video has helped me a lot even if i have the Orx and no the Deus.
Thank you Marco! From one Italian to another. Glad it helped you!
Enjoyed watching
Great video!
Thank you Twig! Glad you liked it.
Very helpful video. I don't have a Deus, but it's nice to know what to be looking for with tones.
ThanksChad!
Great video. Even though I don't hunt parks, there was a lot of useful information here.
Glad you like it Lars!
Hi nice and clear movie.thanks 👍👍👍
Thank you! Hope it helped.
Dave, I have been watching Dues vids for a long time and aluminum junk and can slaw has been killing me. Rarely have I seen an instructional MDing vid that will help approve my Trash to Treasure ratio and wish there was more. I'm currently hunting an old homesite that is littered with old can slaw (rusty tin cans) that hit in the high 80s. The elongation of the signal is something I haven't noticed and will put this in practice. I thank you and my knees thank you
It's been a great tool for me. I use it for iron targets also. As you come off a high tone iron target it will give you an iron buzz
Great Video Dave! You demonstrated some key skills for Urban Gold Mining! Even though you didn't find the Gold Ring in this video ... Congratulations on finding it a few weeks ago!👍👍
Thanks Ed!
b4 I started detecting I downloaded a whole series of articles by an eastern european experienced guy and he gave same advice re elongated targets, I found very few in the filed I was on at the time and my nexy=t huge batch of fields had a lot of iron in some places, I got fixated on eliminating iron and dug up farmers trash slaw, clean forgot abt elongation, thanks for the reminder.
I have the same issue on the farm where I detect, I also started using the elongation technique thanks to this video and it's invaluable.
Heard good things of XP detectors might have to try one some day...
Love you're videos man, I've learned and got alot of ideas from you,just got my TH-cam channel off the ground, great finds,thanks for the advice
Thanks Man!
Extra video, greetings from Austria👍
Very good!!!
Thanks Rich!
Great video Dave. I don't park hunt and it won't apply to my colonial cellar hole digging because there is hardly ever any modern trash but it was a very enjoyable video. Kinda makes me want to go detect in a park now.
Great place to learn the Deus but I'm a field hunter through and through
Yes Dave D ! Your sistem is perfect !! Urra !!! 👍👍👍👍👍💰💰💰
Good Morning!
Fantastic info...
Thanks Aaron glad you liked it. Have you been using the Deus long?
Thanks Aaron have you been using the Deus long?
@@XPTeamUSA about 4-5 years now . Absolutely love this machine.
Super!!! The best!!!
Thanks Vlad!
Nice vid Dave! Didn’t land the shiny but I think peeps will appreciate your help.
Thanks!
Swing ORX thinkin of adding Deus..Great video.
Thanks Reb!
Cool video
Thanks
Shared!:)
great video
Thanks!
Good job 👍
Thanks Josh!
You read your detector like a book
Impressive ,thank you for your time and feedback
Glad the video helped. GL and HH with the Deus.

I ordered my xp dues n it will be here on fri...i also have a quest 30 and a legend i luv my legend but i want to try the xp dues i cant wait...
Plenty of good training videos out there. Check out my friend Gary Blackwell. His channel is The Metal Detecting Skill School. Good luck and happy Hunting: !
Very helpful. I tried in in England and left a lot of trash, but found some treasures.
If you know the terrain you are hunting on the better you will do. Detecting on land that you are not familiar with, I would dig a bunch of targets first to see if the system will work on that particular area.
@@XPTeamUSA Yes, I took time to dig all signals at first. The XY screen helped a lot in combo with your suggestions.
Awesome!
Ura gun man. 1000's of hours experience there. Thanks for passing it on.
Glad it helped
My reserch tour sistem is easy !! Thank You
You can also identify steel crown caps by watching the mineralization bar. If you see more than 2 bars it will be a steel crown cap. It will be about 80% effective. Be sure ground balance and watch for nearby iron in the ground, that will negate this tip.
Good tip Rich! You can also raise the coil over the target while sweeping it. An inconsistent vdi number will tell you the same.
I didn't know that about the mineralization bar. I did know steel crown caps will elongating an iron grunt.
i want to try one :P
Hi,nice video!)
Thanks
Great video and well explained. Will this work on a 9x5 HF coil also ? Thanks again
Thanks Chris! It will work on all coils
Very Interesting and all good learning, does this apply and work in same way on new XP Deus 2
Yes, but not until ALL the bugs are out of the Deus 2
Does it make sense to hunt parks with the lite version?
Excellent video.... How about to make such a video with the ORX ?
Works the same for the ORX
I have dug small small and super thin siver coins almost eroded away with signal 34-35. Thats frustrating because then i have to dig a lot of foil ... dont wanna miss that Silver..
I agree with you on this one.ive a broken edward 3rd florin and running over the half of it it shows in low 30s range and I have a full florin intact same year and it comes in 55-57 on the machine.im lucky to have found a range of different hammies from all different years and ring in in alot of different ranges.id say alot of people missing alot of hammies thinking oh it's silver it will ring up in the 90s.thats not the case though
Great video and will be very helpful to me once I learn the machine better? How many hours does one need to rack up on the deus to get this good? I've been watching the skill school videos and also watched the calabash digger vids. He is hitting a silver dime and quarter at 10-12" but I can't get my deus to hit a silver dime consistently at 6!" I dont think my ground is too mineralized. I only have 1-2 bars on the mineralization gauge. Still learning I guess!!
One season under your belt will get you there.
Good video for parks ans stealthy digging ... But in woods or old areas... I did just about everything. old silver can come up low
Yep. The video was just for parks. Fields and woods you dig a lot more.
Hello. Thanks for the great explanation. Why don't you use the X/Y graphic? I have good results with it in Germany. Sure the composition of the coins is different but the garbage can be identified quite safely. Greetings and good fund to all treasure hunters.
I rarely look at the XY screen and horseshoe screen. I've been using the Deus long enough where full tone audio gives me all the info I need.
Both screens are good for info but they will rarely effect the targets I chose to dig.
Great video. To truly master the Deus you need to create your own programs. I have several and they are so much better than the stock programs. Takes time but worth the effort.
Also learn the x/y graph instead of the horseshoe graph. Once you learn it you will never use the horseshoe graph again. There are videos out there that can help with this.
I use both but this was really about using your ears.
Thank RC!! I usually use the hot program as a starting point and adjust as needed. I don’t save any particular custom programs as I’m constantly changing on the fly and have many different sights that vary in ground conditions.
First of all, good tips so thanks for doing that. However as you had us pay attention to the elongated target noise, you kept talking over it and making it hard to hear. Your point is noted and appreciated, I just wish I could have heard the difference better.......especially on the gold ring. Nice find by the way. 👍
Thanks Paul. Good point. Next video I’ll be more aware of that.
@@XPTeamUSA Exactly that was going to comment. Only I couldn't hear the lengthening of the tone (whether it existed, or not), when the 14k Gold Ring came out. Anyway, the content of the video is very timely, and excellent. Thank you
You prolly dont care but does anybody know a trick to log back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Daxton Jace Instablaster ;)
@Ricky Rowan thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm trying it out now.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Hey, this video is great !! Question though, I am new to XP, just picked up a used Deus with the 11”LF coil. I am mainly hunting older coins/ jewelry inland. I am in Oklahoma with mild soil. Old targets here usually are 6-10 “ in depth. I am wanting to purchase a nine inch coil ...... question is do I need the X35 or HF for my application??? Thanks Anthony 🇺🇸😃
I would start off with the 9" X35 coil. It has the frequencies you will mostly likely use 7, 11 and 17 plus it will go as high as 28 khz which will be perfect for trashy and iron infested sites.
@@XPTeamUSA why is a higher frequency better for trashy areas? I heard that a higher frequency can cause worse metal seperation.
@@j.borchers266 There is a lot of masking going on in trashy areas. The higher frequency will lock on to those smaller targets better and coins on edge in between the trash.
@@j.borchers266 I have the HF 9x5 coil and I can find a coin right next to a nail with it. It is great for trashy areas.
Will the elongation trick work on a vlf machine as well?
Not sure on that one but if you try it, let me know what the out come is.
We get lots of aluminium on the beach in our neck of the woods, I wonder if it'll work on sand?
It should. Give it a go and let me know the out come.
Aren't vdi numbers different in different frequencies?
Yes. The higher the frequency the higher your VDI #'s . Usually 3-5 higher. You could use ID normal with the X35 coils
then your VDI #'s will be consistent regardless of the frequency. ID normal is not available with the HF coils.
On coil
What shovel are you using?
Here's the link facebook.com/usamadetools/
What coil is that? Looks cool with the white
Also where did you find the entrenching tool??.. looks nice thanks in advance
The coil is a 9'' round High Frequency coil made by XP. My digger is made by Predator tools here in The USA
The million dollars question does this work on Dues 2.
I don't run the Deus 2, so I can't be certain. Because the 2 is a muti- frequency machine, I would guess that it would not sound the same and therefore give you a different result.
Hi Dave great video Question have you progressed to Deus 2
Cheers Billk Aus
Thanks. I have not. I felt there were to may bugs to be addressed.
Thanks for reply Dave your video really explains targets and there tones Deus 2 users new to the 2 would benefit greatly from viewing what to dig and what not hope you put out some later guides on using Deus 2 if you decide to upgrade
Kind regards and thanks
Here's a cool trick bury a quarter 6 inches deep and put a pull tab over it. What are you missing now. You won't even hear the quarter would be my guess
Experienced ears will dig it. You will hear a mixed signal and a 50/50 target is always a good target to dig.
You us guys are so lucky to detect parks and side walks.
Uk cheshire council have banned all detecting on the there land eg parks and paths and common land dog walking fields ect one of my Favourite detecting can not do
Well not my favorite areas to hunt but they do well in a pinch.
Wats lead like with the draw back on the coin is that got longation
Lead gives a pretty solid tone, No elongation but you can tell if its a smaller or larger piece of lead by the tone. Musket balls or Civil war bullets will also give you a pretty consistent VDI number.
@@XPTeamUSA nice one my friend Mike from Liverpool UK here top videos
i am a new deus user and have deus 1 lite so no sceen , i really like your video , but my question is does this apply to coins or round targets only ,would a good target which was not round be classified as trash as i have no screen only the tone
The video was made for park diggers. They pretty much are looking for old coins and rings. The old stuff is going to be deep so if your working off tones listen for the faint nice sounding targets. Set your reactivity to 2.5 or 3 but remember if your in a trashy area set it to 4. If you are uncertain on an iffy signal dig it and always dig the deep iffy ones. If you start to find trash deep in the ground move on. The grounds are probably full of fill soil.
If you are digging in farm fields dig all repeatable signals. Most fields are pretty clean of modern trash. If you are on an old homestead and there is a lot of iron in the ground bump reactivity to 4 and dig the repeatable signals. Are you using the ws4 headset? Where to you keep the puck? Attached to the headset or on the stem mount?
@@XPTeamUSA hi, i am using ws5 headphones ,,i was wondering what say a roman dolphin brooch would do as far as longation as its not round but still a good target ?
Brooches will sound really good and repeatable. They will not be scratchy sounding or have a broken broken signal when drawing your coil back. I was on a few roman fields last month when in the UK. I dug a few relics and even though they had an odd shape the signal was very good sounding.
thank you very much for your help@@XPTeamUSA
Why does elongation happen? What does it mean?
It comes from the shape of the target. When you draw back your coil of the target the tone lingers longer than a crisp short tone as a coin , button, or ring.
My friend excelent i think you are a black belt in de id of objets can you recomend me a video for the same but in xp deus 2
Also i use it on field what do you recommend me pliss dave
Thank you very much
Tone is very important, so you will want to mimic the same on your D2. I would recommend using a single frequency of 14 or 17 and using full tones.
Gr8 video clip bro, but alas.. far to much Rocket science indeed Software button pushing galore...... give me the Vanquish 540 Any Day....🤠🤠🤠
Thanks Daryl! Not as techy as you might think.
He only changed one thing from factory settings. Hows that rocket science lmao
One signal is BUBBLE GUM SIGNAL ??? THANK
45 comments but only 23 showing?? every machine hits hard on coins and rings! What about necklaces, bracelets, odd shaped jewelry, and a ton of other cool stuff I dig??
You need to click on the reply icon under the comments to see my reply. They count those as comments.
@@XPTeamUSA Good to know! Thanks for the sub! I
I have dug signals that sounded like pure trash and have been rewarded with a gold ring or a coin. I think luck plays a part in what you decide to dig or not to dig.
99% of metal in the ground is junk for sure.
Glad I'm not hunting your ground. Maybe do some research and get that down from 99 to 50/50. Yikes
@@XPTeamUSA the hunt for better sites is ongoing. Have to travel much longer distances to find
@@XPTeamUSA the hunt for better sites is ongoing. Have to travel much longer distances to find
That's like that for all of us. Getting harder to find those local honey holes.
What coil is that?
I was using the 9 inch round HF (high frequency) coil. For this demo, any XP coil will do the same.
@@XPTeamUSA Thank you for the email reply as well, you sir are awesome!
@@onemansthought You are too kind my friend!
Lucky Americans! You only have to dig Dollars and modern jewelry. Here in Europe we have about 6000 years of history to dig, and the technic on the video dont works. All signals in the foil range have to be dig out. You never know what shape the object in the ground is. For example a Roman fibula has a complete other signal size than a coin.
Actual it does work in the UK. Tested myself. First is the target tone, next is familiarity of the grounds being hunted. Then you need to know your metal tones. Odd shape objects with a nice tone or a deep tone are always dug. You guys are the lucky ones as far as history. Here in the states we have a bit of history ourselves. Copper spear point (3-10,000 years old. Got a nice collection of them. You ever get over here I'll take you there.
Thnx for sharing…. Wear some gloves next time for your safety!
Thanks for the advise.
