    Thanks for the video and all your advice , I'm getting a Garrett Detector (as after your great review it looks so easy to use) and I'm looking forward going out and having some fun finding alsorts of things.
    Permission to detect is important I know and a few people to ask who own land but I will have a good practice at home first and remember to remove my ring!
    I'm really intrested in the local history of where I live and it will be fantastic to have my own collection of coins and belt buckles and thimbles just to think I'm a part of the story, It would be nice to find rare things but I pick up so much litter when dog walking (as I don't like to see where I live looking a mess) that a few hundred bottle caps before my first coin wouldn't matter to much.
    Thanks again and look forward to another great video.

    45 years ago i got a detector and didnt know a thing. One of the first things i did was take a gold ring and buried and then listened to the tone the detector made when passed over it. Then when i went to tbe beach i heard the same tone and started digging. I dug and dug and dug and finally reached what made the tone....a steel radial tire! Only used the detector a few more times because my husband stopped wanting to go to tbe beach. (Anytime i found fun stuff to do he usually wanted to stop doing it. Odd man. He is my ex husband now)

    OK I CONFESS........ 35 years of detecting, OMG what have I missed? Way back when, I was for coin and ring size targets, Discrimination set up high, dig NO large targets. I'M STILL, being stupid. Yet where I live now is U.S. Civil War area (1860-1865) I could be missing belt buckles, artillery shells, large relic's. Bad habits are hard to break, your video's help in developing good habits for better success. Thanks

    Great video Dawn! When I started detecting this Spring I had one of these mistake experiences. I found a nice target and pinpointed it. Dug my hole and settled in for the search. My Garrett carrot told me my target was closer so I widened my hole only to get the same results. Once again I dig and get the same thing. Puzzled,I start to wonder if I'm onto some sort of rare and elusive silver worm? The light finally came on and I remembered I have had both knees replaced!

    Dawn, we have all been to this ring rodeo..haha. So true, I've been detecting 24 years and I are this rookie mistake only two years ago with my pin pointer. I'm just glad no one was around to see this fiasco..haha. Another rookie mistake I made was two years ago at a rally in Toronto, Canada. Tim and George from Diggers were there. George was detecting near me and I got a nice signal. He came over and watched me as I retrieved a coin. My mistake was I didn't check my hole before filling it in. I was nervous enough having one of the worlds most popular detectorists watching me. As I went to walk away George swept his detector over my hole and it beeped. I was a little embarrassed when he told me to check it one more time. I opened up the hole again and scanned with the pin pointer and there was another coin...bugger all. He bugged for the rest of the day...haha. Needless to say I have never made that mistake again.

  • @JustWickedSwede
    @JustWickedSwede 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The regulations are so strict here in Sweden.
    You are allowed to OWN a detector, but you need permission from the local authorities to detect. You have to apply for permission and you can only apply for a specified area, and the area can not be near earlier archeological finds (and those places are scattered everywhere!!!!).
    And you also have to have a good reason to detect in the area, and the permission of the land owner.
    So... you aren't even allowed to detect in your own backyard without permission :-/
    I really would like to get a metal detector and detect on my great grandmothers land, but I don't know if it is worth the hassle going through all the bureaucracy...

    Dawn, at time frame 7:39, that looks like it might be the top of an old straight stick walking cane. If you find out one day I would love to know if I was right. My first summer of detecting and your right, many trips out and not finding anything good yet, but I won't give up!
    Something I've been doing, don't know if I'm wasting my time doing it but I'm keeping my finds separated by tags from each location searched along with a rough drawn map showing where on that location each item was found. My thought is, as I learn more, one day a light bulb might go off in my head and it will make more sense to me then it does now. May be these finds are clues as to what else may be there and help guide me to go back to some of these spots and where to continue searching when I do go back, make sense? One thing for sure, it keeps me thinking about these spots I've been to and urges me to continue.
    Anyways, thanks for the tips and good hunting! Cheers!

      @DiggerDawn  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Garretts are always a good starter detector! If you ring a reputable dealer they will be very helpful if you explain what you want one for :-) good luck!
