Metal Detecting - Fisher CZ-21 Hunting Soccer Field
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2024
- For this metal detecting hunt, I took the Fisher CZ-21 to a soccer field to see how it performs away from the beach. It was a nice hunt and I found several coins. I really liked using the pin point feature and it really comes in handy with the concentric coil that comes stock on the CZ-21. Enjoy!

Great to see you again.
You brighten people's day
Well thank you! And thanks for watching.
but of course
This is a great metal detector. Works great on beaches and on land. It does take some time learning how to setup to get the most out of its capabilities. Also when not using in the water there is a belt clip for the actual unit itself. This is defiantly one of the best detectors on the market. Thanks for sharing
During ground balance you may have been too close to your shovel, the targets you put out, etc... Scan for an area without any signals before doing the ground balance.
Oh yea, I hadn't thought about that. :/ Damn...
We learn as we go - still learning myself - hope I never stop lol.
Yea, I know what you mean. Same here. :D
Awesome video as I learned a lot from your testing techniques! Thanks for being so well spoken and clear on your videos! I love the beach videos, as well. Who knows, from what I have learned from you, maybe I'll find some treasures, too! I'm 61 years old and just recently started MD'ing and I love this hobby! Continued GL and HH to you!
Thank you! Oh I hope you find something amazing!! :D And welcome to the hobby. It's a blast. :D Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the education on the Fisher CZ! The heavier non corroded pennies are older copper ones, the more corroded pennies are newer zinc junkers..
I have the CZ21. Takes time to learn well, like all machines, especially depth sounds. As for a shovel. I use a $25. Trenching shovel from the hardware store. It has a narrow four inch by 8 inch long blade. I cut the handle down to help fit it into my cars trunk.
Always enjoy your vids! Thanks for the CZ demo...
Good to see you on the "land"! (Gloves are ALWAYS important!)(Good digging tools are invaluable!)
Thank you!! It's a nice change of scenery. :) Yea, I still can't believe I forgot them. :(
Another great video. The finds jar is looking good. It has been enjoyable watching your learning curve over the past few months. GL & HH.
Thank you! Yea, it's building up slowly but surely. :) Thank you!
Great Video She Detector . always a treat watching your videos , still hoping you find your diamond ring . Sounds like your having a Great time with your detecting. hope to see many more , plus learning more with every Video
Thank you! And thanks for watching of course :) I can't wait for that day. It'll be amazing!
Pennies before 1982 were 95% copper. After that they were 97.5% zinc with a thin copper coating. Some soils will just eat these zincs up. Making them brittle and pitted. They don't hold up as well as the coppers did given the soil type. That rubber looking thing is a cleat off of a soccer shoe.
Great hunt. Thanks for sharing.
Oh yea? I knew the coins were made differently but never thought about them degrading faster because of it. Makes sense though! Thanks for watching.
The CZ 21 also has a number of variations in tones once you gain some experience. There is a rear shaft mount available on ebay for $16. It really helps balance the detector and I can swing the CZ 6 - 8 hours. It is impossible to really "try out" a detector like this in only a few hunts. But thanks for trying.
I was wondering if it did. Yea, that would really come in handy. Then you can extend the coil and get a larger sweep pattern. Yea, I know what you mean. There are so many factors that will affect how a machine runs and 3 or 4 hunts won't show all that.
very informative... and fun to watch.
Thank you!
For the shallow targets especially on a public soccer field you may want to use a long blunt screwdriver to ensure you do not damage the sod. With that shovel you may do much damage to the grass roots and have the plug dislodged by the players who run on it. The city will eventually ban detecting if plugs are the direct result of detectorists....Enjoy your videos!
That's good thinking! I'll have to remember that for next time. Yea, I'd hate to have it affect the hobby in my area that's for sure. Thanks for the advice. :D
Did you had any problems with soccer field management ?
No. It's a public park, not a state park or anything like that. So long as you clean up and such, there isn't an issue. And if anyone told me to leave, I would have.
Nice video, she detector. Seems like a decent machine. I have used an old bandana for the dirt before, but not in awhile.
Thank you! Yea, it's not to bad honestly. :) That's a good idea. They are pretty cheap so that's perfect! :D
Great video, it's nice to see you do some land hunting and like you I don't use a rag either unless I'm metal detecting on private property. Glad to see that your coin jar is half way full. Happy hunting !
Thank you. :) Yea, a change of pace every once in a while. :D Yea, it's coming along pretty good so far. :D
Hi SD, Thank you for reviewing the CZ-21, your time with it has been very useful to me. I have been vacillating between buying the CZ and the Excal for water hunting. If you have a recommendation I would appreciate it. I enjoy your videos, keep them coming!
mokpot as a land digger I like this comparison. after watching the excal, this CZ seems to communicate better. I think I'd choose CZ. For what it's worth.
Thanks.
Hi! Thank you for watching me test it out. :) For me, I prefer the Excal over the CZ-21. The CZ is a good machine yes but I like how the Excal has several different tones for metals. I think there's 21 tones, not positive though. Some people have said the CZ also has variances in the tones but I've not noticed that since I've been using it.
Nice hunt with your CZ!
Thank you! :D
The shiny item is a broken off nozzle that is used to fill up a soccer ball, football or basket ball. The screw with the hard plastic or rubber grommet is a screw on cleat for a sport shoe, probably a soccer shoe.
Oh yea! That's makes sense. Hahaha, thanks!
Hi! The pennies corode like that from topical fertilizer placed in ball fields, parks, etc.... It works its way into the ground and reacts with the metal in the coin.
Oh, and its a lot harder work land hunting than beach hunting. Am I right? 😀
I had no idea that could happen so this is pretty surprising to me. But it makes sense. Thanks for the info!
Hahahaha! Right you are! I'm not a fan of having to work that hard! Hahaha.
isn't that a water machine ? never used mine on land not enough discrimination detail to be really sffective
Agree, strictly a beach /water machine and I love mine. Would never use it in the park. Plus she needs a harness to put in any kind of time.
Yes it's a water machine but I figured I would see how it performs on land. Out of curiosity honestly. :) But I agree, the discrimination would make it hard to hunt trashy areas.
great vid
Well I tried one of those Bulgarian Pirate turn-knob, single-tone, Apolonias at the beach and they're (tooooo) sensitive, I could only turn mine up halfway and then, like your CZ-21, the discrimination(maybe less capable then yours) is not adequate enough to even disc. out a pull tab so needless to say, I was getting loud, solid hits literally (everywhere) on the beach at about 2-10" apart. Maybe that might be a (good) sign but I, like you, had better have my energy and "eat my Weaties", lol, to dig what this detector sounds good and loud on or I will be worn out and wanting to take a nap under one of the beach picnic shelters by mid-day, Lolll !!
Great vids! Thank you for sharing them! I bought a Whites V3i last month and I love it. I've been trying to plan a weekend in clearwater the first weekend in Dec (tbd) for my bday just to get some sun (I'm in newengland). I've been contemplating bringing my detector but I'm not sure I am comfortable checking it in a plane. 😝
Thank you! And thanks for watching. :) Oh very nice. I love new toys! Yea, Clearwater in December would be nice, not crazy hot and shouldn't be a bunch of people there either. You should totally bring your machine. But I agree, I wouldn't check it. Take it as a carry on in a backpack. Make sure to take the manual with you. You will most likely be stopped at security so having the manual with you will help them believe you when you say it's a metal detector. Good luck!
I also have a V3i and I travel with it! :)
Get a Pelican 1510 case with the handle. It is the maximum dimensions for a carry-on bag. The V3i (with stock coil) breaks down and just fits in the case. Actually, I shaved off about .25" of the longest rod so that it would fit up in the lid diagonally. And yes, love my V3i as well! Now you won't have to check your detector!
Very cool! Thank you very much for the info! Happy hunting!!
Forgot to mention.. If you actually do this, TSA will have a fit if you try to get a hand shovel or digging tool on board. I have a sturdy plastic one that I put in the Pelican 1510 but it's not a good solution. Lately, I just get to my destination and buy a $5 cheap garden shovel at Lowes. When I'm ready to fly back, I just leave it in the rental car - lol.
Lol! That's good thinking! Maybe the next person that rents the car is also a detectorist and is like, awesome! A hand shovel! Hahaha.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos ! Keep swinging :)
Thank you for watching!
Another fine video, I enjoyed it!
Thank you! And thanks for watching.
Modern Zinc pennies decay fast in the ground.
yeah, no one will find them in the future. Just soil anomalies causing detector interference.
Yea, it seems as though they do. Bummer :/
The funny "screw" thing looks like the 1960's removable football cleat that a 3/4" (or about) socket wrench would remove from the shoe. Thanks for the dirt-dig video for us land-lubbers living away from the oceanside!
Yea, I think you're right about that. Hahaha, no problem! :D Thanks for watching.
Another good test. I did hit the link and was surprised at the price. I was thinking it was like the Garrett 400. I guess I like a display to see what is happening. Just sounds is a bit off-putting. I hear lots of phantom signals when I hunt, I need to see what it is and how deep it is. It is good to see you hunt land locations too. I rarely travel to a beach to hunt, bit of a drive. I would call that detector 'Coiner'.
Thank you! Yea, it's right up there with the Excal. I personally prefer the Excal over the CZ-21 though. :) I know what you mean about having a display. I was just like you. I was always looking at the display though. With the sounds, you have to rely on your senses to pick up the differences. Yea, I hate those ghost signals no doubt! Yea, it's nice to have a change once in a while. I still prefer beach hunting over land digging. Hahaha! Good name!
Great video, thanks for sharing. The reason those pennies corrode faster is because they are using a lot of zinc in them now, cheaper to make, a lot lighter and they corrode faster. Enjoyed your video, as usual. GL&HH
Thank you! Yea, they were terrible looking for the most part. The older ones held up much better. :) Thanks for watching.
Mt I getting a Hori Hori knife, it made my life a lot better in making plugs.
I think I've heard of those. I'll have to check them out. Thanks for the info!
I was laughing at you destroying the grass on the Soccer pitch
Hehehe, I was trying to be careful. It'll be fine though I think. That dirt was very rich dirt plus it was pretty moist so that grass should pick up right where it left off. :)
Nice! For land detecting you need a detector with a display and TDI otherwise kind of hard what you digging
Thank you! I know what you mean. It's difficult hunting land by only sound that's for sure!
I found that many times digging with a beep and dig machine results in finding a lot more good targets because you dont second guess the display numbers and pass the targets by as easily. I find more gold and silver with my beep and dig machine than my various other VDI machines combined.
Good job Dean, for showing the benefits of these too-often, passed up type detectors. The beep and dig are all I have ever used since 1989, when I first got into this hobby. (AND) most of mine are the single-tone at that. I (do) like the two tone and three and four tones but the 5-tone+ are "for the birds". WAY too many tones and I really think too many tones can be very confusing in high-trash areas as it overwhelms a person's hearing/concentration levels. I (HIGHLY) suggest that She Detector try out a little cheap GC-1022/1023. These are (extremely) quick, 2-tone detectors(with all-metal and single-tone option at the flip of the switch). They have response times/recovery speed, comparable to a Teknetics T2 or better and can go down to 8" and more, if on the beaches. Very positive, high tone for the accepted targets and of course, the low-tone for the nails, foil, etc.
Nice hunt...the corroded pennies are made after 1982 til now...they are made of zinc..not copper. They are just plated in copper which dissolves off quickly in the ground and the zinc corrodes and decomposes quickly. ...LOL if your to cheap to get a good shovel..sharpen the one you have on an electric grinder! ;) glad you had fun. I enjoyed seeing you dig dirt. ... Funny thing is that a 10k large class ring will sound like a zinc penny! GL/HH next hunt
Thank you. :) Yea, it's crazy how they just fall apart like that. Lol! Not cheap really, I just won't use it enough to warrant buying something like a Sampson shovel. :D But I like your idea to sharpen my current one. :D Hahaha, yea it's a change of scenery for sure!
it sounds high because of the size of target and on surface
That makes sense. Thanks!
Always enjoy your videos. I think you should name your little shovel "Grunt." I liked how accurately the pin pointer on the CZ seemed to work. It zeroed in on the target pretty well. Keep up the good work!
Well thank you. Lol!!!! That's a great name for it! Yea, once I got the hang of it, it was much easier to locate the targets. :)
Awesome video Misses She Detector. Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween
Thank you! It was nice. I hope yours was nice as well. :)
It was thanks so much take care
thanks for showing that your pinpointers don't interfere with that machine. i bought a land-or-sea, and it doesn't play well with my tesoro compadre' (i have to keep them well apart if i want to use them on a hunt).
No problem! :D I'm sure some pointers might interfere, you never know. Oh yea? I'm not surprised. I can't use my Land or Sea near my Excal, they don't play well together. Hahaha.
Now they need to learn to play nicer don't they, LOL.
Probably fertilizer eating the coins up. I'm excited since the season of detecting is almost here for me! Thanks for the reviews!
Yea, you're probably right about that. :) Oh very nice! Well good luck in the upcoming season. :D
Another great video.!
Thank you!
Hello She Detector, It's great to see you hunting on land again. I especially liked the video when you found a Buffalo nickel on the grass strip between the sidewalk and street. I believe it was the same one with the nosey property owner near by who called the cops on you. I had a similar experience myself, but the cops said they didn't care and said have fun. Keep up these great vids. HH. GL
Hi! Yes, it's nice for a change every now and then. :D I know! I still can't believe I found a coin that old! My oldest to date so far. :D That was the same one. Hahaha. I was scared for sure! :{ Hahaha, that's great that you didn't get in trouble. :)
I like that you finally did a land hunt instead of the beach, but I think I see why you prefer the beach, it looks like the digging is hard for you. I like the way the pinpointer works on the Fisher. In regards to not digging the low tones, on my AT Gold I get some middle tones for nickles. if you ignore those tones you could be missing things. In relic hunting, you dig everything.
Yea, I try to hunt on land once or twice a year. Hahaha. I do find it very hard. :( Yea I've heard about digging everything when looking for relics. You never know!
And She Detector, most relic hunters don't use any discrimination and so they can go pretty deep. In the 60's and 70's, the detectors, for the most part, had no discrimination(but some models did) but the better units had an iron null-out feature that made smaller pieces of iron, like nails, go silent and (still) find a coin, right above or below, even a pile of nails. AND, they were transmit/receive, non-motion detectors which means that the coil didn't have to be moving to detect the target like the newer VLF(very low frequency) motion detectors. So this made them great for pinpointers.
Its from the lawn fertilizer. The salt degrades the clad coins like that
Oh wow, that's a bit scary! :{
Yeah me and my friend breathed a bunch of this in because when they were treating the soccer fields, the wind caught some of the chemicals and blew it our way. I had a lot of itching and nerve pain/twitches from that stuff for a couple of years thereafter. I'm (positive), it was those chemicals they sprayed on the fields that morning while we were MD'ing so yeah, be (very) careful not to breath these and don't let it touch your skin and maybe take a handkerchief and wear a long-sleeve shirt if they all of a sudden bring out the chemicals.
Hi I think the rubber thing with screw end is a stud out of a football boot
I think you're right about that. I never even thought about that when I first found it. Hahaha. Good thinking!
you should get chest mount or hip mount to use it on land - even I have a hard time using it on land with it mounted on the rod - I would never use in a park or school myself but have used in a few CW relic sites with great success - found musketballs and minies in the 2 foot range - others went over a few of my signals with high end land machines with no response or just a slight sound but thought they were ghost signals cause they could only pick them up 1 outta 4 swings
Yea, my arm gets a work out even with the coil close to me. My bicep mostly. :) Wow 2 feet huh? That's awesome!
I am not really a big fan of land detecting, but it is fun to watch you get your hands dirty :) although i must say that as a huge football (your soccer) fan, you made me nervous as you dig the football field :) you covered the holes alright at the end but still :P I think i still prefer at pro in action. Love all these trial and reviews of yours never the less. So, thank you.
Yea, I prefer the beaches. Hahaha. It is nice to have a change of scenery every now and then. :D Yea, that's one of the reason why I stopped hunting the field. I didn't want to tear it up to much. Thank you!
harbor freight, get the ten dollar mini spade shovel--little bigger, stronger and longer than that army shovel and it's only ten bucks
Oh very nice. I'll have to check that out! Thanks for the info! And for watching!
Try a sampson T handle digger 31 in. The soreness is muscles you don't usually use, also try knee pads for better leverage.
TY for video.
Oh yea, I've looked at those. Very nice for sure. I almost bought one but then I didn't because I'm mostly a beach hunter. I wouldn't use the shovel enough to warrant buying one. :( Good thinking on the knee pads though. I hadn't thought about that.
Good morning SD Nice hunt. Remember if you don't dig them pull tabs yer not gonna dig no gold.The pennies are copper over a zinc core and so when scratched moisture gets between the metal layers and the zinc breaks down and your penny is no longer a penny.
Here in Canada they removed the penny for circulation about 3 years ago and the last few years before that they tried clad but it cost more than a penny to put them into circulation.
I keep all my copper pennies and as copper goes up in price so do my pennies (about 2.1cents a penny right now)
Little suggestion If you don't have a bench grinder at home take your shovels and swing by your mechanic with a six pac and ask if they would be so kind as to sharpen them for you, just along the first few inches of the cutting edge, so much easier for digging in grass.
Now go digging and when your done you have a six pac to celebrate your finds with, don't think your mechanic will charge you a thing.
HH
Morning! Thank you. :D Yea, but since I was digging on land, I wasn't to concerned with missing gold. I would have been digging all day and had a bunch of pull tabs to show for it I'm sure. Hahaha! That's good thinking about keeping them for the copper. That's good thinking about getting the edges sharpened. I'll keep that in mind. :) I'm not terribly concerned with that though since I hardly hunt on land. :)
Hi She Detector this is Kim The Cajun Goldwing Rider just watched your video . very nice just hard ground to Diggin. But great detector. Thanks for the video .
Hi Kim! Thank you for watching. :) Yea, I'm not so great at digging in the dirt so I wasn't used to using a lot of muscle power. Hahaha!
She Detector thanks again for the video also would appreciate if you could subscribe to my channel. Kim The Cajun Goldwing Rider . Thanks again
That's just what happens to new zinc pennies and it doesn't take long... the thing with the cone shape rubber thing is a cleat from a soccer shoe! GL&HH
Oh yea? Well that's crap. :/ Oh yea! How didn't I think of that? Hahaha. Thanks for the info.
Hey She Detector!
Why not just use the folding shovel to pry the plug back and then simply use the smaller trowel for the exploratory part? Good luck!
Hum, well you make a great point. And honestly, it never crossed my mind. Lol! I'll have to try that the next time though. Thanks! And thank you for watching.
No problem. Glad to be of help. Nothing more frustrating than not having either the correct technique or having low-quality tools in hard ground or if your like me, having to MD without a pinpointer because your pinpointer is busted and so you have to end up hand sifting for the target, lol. Pheww, really time consuming, lol.
Hahaha, oh gosh! I don't think I could handle it if I didn't have a pin pointer. Sometimes while beach hunting you find the smallest of targets. Trying to hand sift to locate it would drive me nuts!
LOL, yeah She Detector, I can laugh about it now but it was sooooo discouraging and a little irritating about two weeks ago when I didn't have a working pinpointer at my local park and I had to hand sift for the target. When I finally found it by waving the handful that finally (had) the target, it was soooooo small, I never did find it so I had to give up and put all the dirt back in the hole. Encouraging that this detector had 'the muss' to find the really deep and also small items but yes, I'm like you, I've (GOT) to have a good pinpointer as this is kind of like an extra sense, lol.
nice video and congrats on over 8 thousand subs. Your doing something right lol
Thank you! I wouldn't have been able to do it without people like you! :D
the rubber thing is a stud from a football boot and the shiny thing is a needle for inflating footballs.
Oh yea! That makes a lot of sense. Hahaha. Not sure why I didn't think about that.
Great hunt great video the machine looks heavy keep up the great videos GL&HH
Thank you! It could be heavy if your coil is far out. Keeping it close reduces the wait significantly though.
any Lincoln pennies minted after 1983 are made of zinc not copper a more corrosive metal.zinc does not take long to corrode.
Yea, I'm starting to see that. What a shame. :/
Tones are not going to mean much if going for GOLD" Have to dig everything in that range no-matter what machine you use.
That's the truth!
Hi, I am a new Subscriber, I like your videos, thank you for this adventure! 😊
Btw, I just purchased this Detecter, can’t wait to start using it! Thank you for the Video!! 😀
that was a fun video you should check out piranha shovels they're great for digging in the grass I hope you put up a picture of your Halloween costume this year last year was awesome
Thank you! I've looked at several shovels and actually almost bought one a while back but I don't really do much land hunting so I wouldn't have used it much. So I didn't buy one. :( Hahaha, well thanks! I actually didn't dress up this year. But I will next year. I'm going to be a jack in the box I think. :D
YAY something other than a beach lol.
Hahaha! Yea, a small change of pace for this hunt. :)
Do you own any of the equipment you are using or are you just pushing these detectors for your sponsors...
I don't own the Fisher CZ-21 but I do own both pin pointers. My subbers wanted to see the Fisher in action so I was able to work with Kellyco (sponsor) to get one for a few weeks. They let me play with it for free and they get advertising out of it. Win-win in my opinion. :D
Try a CZ3D land machine. The pictograms make ID easier. The CZ 21 is a great water/beach machine with great discrimination. I picked up a very good chest mounted set up on ebay that makes hunting so much less tiring on land and water.

Nice video Lenny!LOL Keep up the good videos Thanx
LMAO!! I sure will. :D
Great video!
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
She Detector your welcome
You Have a fan from sweden👌🏻
Well hello all the way in Sweden! :D
strictly a beach / water machine and I love mine. Would never use it in the park. Plus you need a harness to put in any kind of time with it.
Yea, I wouldn't hunt on land with this machine frequently. It was more so out of curiosity on how it would perform. It's doable but it would be time consuming for sure!
She!! Belated Happy Halloween!! Did you and Beefy Hubby have a good one? Now if my old brain pan remembers right, we saw a pic of your costume last year. You were the ghost girl from The Ring and pretty convincing too. Dare I ask, are you going to treat us with this year's Halloween pic?
Thank you! Hahaha, we had a nice time, went to dinner and avoided all children. Lol! You are correct. I was the chick from The Ring. :) Sadly I didn't dress up this year. I think I will next year though. I'm thinking of being a jack-in-the-box. :D should be fun. :D
Lol, then the kids lost out big time! Are you sure about that? I'll guess maybe you want to be a jack-in-the-control-box of a metal detector! Maybe next year I'll walk around with my "monster detector"(pin pointer) in hand and scan people, since most will have some metal on them they will be proven evil when it beeps.
Hahaha, yea I should have taken advantage of it and scared the kiddies! :D Hahahaha! That would be an interesting costume for sure! Hahaha, that should be funny to see them freak out when it goes off.
To ease the strain on your forearm -- relax -- lightly hold the grip by cupping it with your fingers - so that it "floats" in your curled fingers. Grabbing the grip tightly increases the tension in the upper forearm. My Fisher CZ-7a [an ancestor to your CZ-21] also will sound like yours [at minute 36:15] when it encounters underground crud -- it could be junk construction trash buried years ago. Found a 1962 Estado Unidos Mexico one peso coin / about 6 inches/ while "land digging" neighbor's yard. Continue on -- am enjoying your hunts. QUESTION: Have you done a video comparison of the different units that you have used?
That makes sense. I suppose I could be white knuckling the grip and not even realize it. Yea, you might be right about that. There's no telling what's under that ground. And since it was right near the bench, it could have been from when they installed the bench. Good thinking! Oh that's cool. :) Well, I've compared different units but not all of them together. I suppose I could do a video talking about all of the machines I've used though. ;)
Wow, that is the first time I seen you on a field. I have to thank you for wishing me luck. In the sports field where I found that class ring and the other 8 rings, I finally found my second gold. A very nice SAINT FLORIAN Necklace Pendent. And you where right. I did not expect it. WOW and WOO HOO... I will have the video on my channel soon. Oh yeah, did you find your third gold ring yet? LOL
Yep, I'm hardly on land. I love the beaches so much more! :D You're very welcome. 8 rings in incredible! And congrats on your second gold!! Woo!! You find the best things when you least expect it. To the point where you're almost zoned out while digging and then there is the treasure! Out of no where! Hahaha. Oh very good, I can't wait to see it. :D Not yet, still looking though!! :D
You want to practice pinpointing with your own targets, visible on the surface, like you did at the start of the video. Then, if you really want to have some fun, have a friend tape a target to the back side of a big piece of cardboard, where you can't see it. Find it, then try to pinpoint it. Stick a straight pin through right where you think the target it.
When I would ground balance, I always flipped the Disc. to Auto-Tune, Sens. to 10, and left the GB knob where it was from the last hunt. Turn the unit on, scan around for metal targets, then start pumping the coil up and down. For best results, you want the detector tuned slightly "negative". You'll hear a little bit of sound on the up-swing as you pump the coil. However, consider this. You're in Florida. There's not much mineralization there. Plus, you're using the CZ-21, which is locked in SALT mode. SALT mode helps with conductive salts and mineralization. You probably don't have to worry to much about GB'ing the unit down there.
On both my CZ-5 and my CZ-20, in "clean" areas, I would hunt in Auto-Tune, with my detector running fairly hot, Sens. around 8, until I got a target. I would then flip from Auto-Tune to 0 Disc. to ID the target (one click clockwise, you're turning yours counter-clockwise). Pinpoint and recover the target, then check for a second one, as you do sometimes get multiple targets. Flip back down to Auto-Tune and continue hunting.
Go to the Fisher Research Labs website and see if they still have the .pdf article that Tom Dankowski published, about "Intelligent Hunting". That will probably help shorten your learning curve.
Most aluminum will always come in as a mid-tone, unless youre' on a squished can. That will probably give a high tone and/or bell tone (overload). Bouncing signals can be all sorts of things. It's easier to figure out on a CZ with a meter, either the 5 or 7. A mid- and high-tone bouncing signal could be Foil/Nickel, which could be a corroded Buffalo Nickel, gold ring, on the low end. On the high end of the scale, it could be a Pulltab/Penny bouncing target, which could be a big chunky piece of can slaw, or a chunky gold ring, especially the higher carat rings. Something that many new CZ users had a hard time with, is that while FRL gave the Nickel a high tone, Nickels come in rather low on the meter, down between foil and pulltabs.
That's good thinking on getting better at pin pointing. :) That's all great information! Getting the ground balance right is very important so thank you. :) And thanks for watching!
She, the long shiny thing looks like the tip of a basket ball inflator. Clad Zink (post 1982) pennies look the same out here in WV, or worse sometimes. Your pre 1983 pennies, Clad Brass (some 1982) will weigh more. 3.2 grams vs. 2.? grams.
Great video as usual.
Oh yea! That makes sense that it's used to inflated balls. I did find it on a soccer field. Lol. Thanks for the info, I never even considered that.
Nice day for a hunt.i do like the beach soooo much easier to dig lol.in 1983 pennies where changed to zink coated with a thin copper.they weigh much less also.if you find a 1983 penny weigh it.there were a few made out of the solid copper alloy.they are quite valuable! So any way just like your car if the coating gets scratched off it'll corrode.salt affects zink like crazy.fertilizer for grass will kill a zink penny the ocean beaches will devour a zink stinkin Lincoln.ok im done blabbin.gl&hh&stay safe
It was pretty nice. I completely agree with you. I missed the beach! :) Yea that makes sense that grass fertilizer would mess up the coin.
CZs are very deep seeking detectors but are prone to giving a false good signal on small deep iron. It's best to concentrate on solid repeatable signals. They are great machines, but like most all detectors, you have to learn how to best use them.
Oh yea? I didn't know that. Good info though. :) I agree, it takes time to learn the different machines and what they are telling you. :)
Dont pass up any sound if it sounds like a penny,I was doing that because they sounded like clad pennys. Turned out I was passing up indian head pennys. They are made with bronze and copper but the signal on my CZ -6 was telling me they were clad. Good thing I back tracked. That detector turned out to be a killer indian head coin finder. That and silver. It was great for fining deeper coins that my other detectors were missing. Dont worry about using a towel,the first rain washes the dirt back where it belongs,as long as you dont leave divits! I found out the hard way about not wearing good gloves. getting stitches after digging in the dirt requires a tetnis shot as well as them stuffing a needle in the wound to flush out any flesh eating microbes. Glass and sharp metals holds no love for flesh. I once found a clad coin that had a blade of grass growing through the center of the coin. The metal had pitted so badly,the grass was able to grow through it. My best finds were those laying right on top of the ground!
Oh no!! I'm sorry you missed them. But at least you know what they sound like now! :D Yea, I figured that would happen. Yea, I don't leave divots, I try to make sure all the grass and dirt is where it belongs. :) Yikes! What did you cut your hand/finger on? Wow really? That's crazy. I've never seen that before. Hahaha.
She Detector Broken glass is the number one thing to get cut on,rusty sharp metal can open you up too,its best to always wear mechanics style gloves. They didnt have such a thing back when I started,I would wear the fingers out of normal gloves and thin leather gloves wouldnt work very well eather. I have half a coin book full of indian head coins,many from the 1880's and 1890's. I started a second book but after I sold my CZ-6 I pretty much stopped finding indian head coins. I should have kept it. As I said,It was hard to adjust to using it and setting the ground interference everytime you used it was a headache. Most guys hated them. I liked mine just because it found stuff deeper than every detector back then. I did a lot of really old farm sites that were over grown and you needed the extra depth to reach the indian head coins. I dont get out to hunt much any more ,mostly because of my health. I still like to swing my detector,especially at a friends house.
scott firman That makes sense that the gloves weren't built like they are today. And that's great that you used to find some many Indian head pennies! How cool is that! :)
Dear. queen of the watermelons. thanks for this video again because in everytime you given to us more information about the all metal detectors . so i this the cz21 is so heavy need harness and right now i think to buy nel thunder coil for my at pro to get 10 or 11 depth so with 11 inch I'm sure in my beach i can find more than 3 or 4 golden rings because I'm still using nel snake and with it only the depth it will be 6 inch and I'm missing a lot of treasures ... nel thunder coast 209 in kylleco with shipping totally it will be 260 0r 270 $ so I will make my order at soon .. so do you think again the minelab excalibur ii better than the cz 21 ... ( IN GOD WE TRUST ) regards
Well thank you! I'm glad you like them. :) Yea, a harness would make hunting much easier for sure. :) That's great that you are buying a new coil! I hope it helps you find all those gold rings hidden deep down. :) I think it's better than the CZ-21 yes. :D
It's too bad the detection circuit isn't hotter or the size of your coil wouldn't matter that much. In some models, Toyota Subaru, there's a sensitivity potentiometer one can turn clockwise for more sensitivity but be very care as this should only be done on the less sophisticated ones. A multi-tone detector like a Minelab can be screwed up and the tones changed as well as the ground balance so I wouldn't recommend it on your expensive detector (but) for the sub-$300 +/- detectors that are turn-knob, non-screen i.d. type and maybe a maximum of two-tones, substantial depth can be gained by tweaking this circuit. If you doubt this, Keith Southern did a video using the XP Goldmaxx Power and it pegs a nickel at 15" with the 5" NEL coil (IN RED CLAY), one of the most difficult soils to detect in and many detectors have a problem with this soil. Check out this video - th-cam.com/video/7tmYY5WtC9c/w-d-xo.html
Hey there she detector ..if i may weigh in ..My suggestion first off would be to practice in your lawn or a family's yard if you live in an apartment and dont have a yard .hone your plug digging scills. then venture out into public aria, But you have to keep in mind that you are in a public aria,parks ,playing fields ,were the lawns are kept up ,cut, its a lot different then the beach ,,hmm more work .,and i cant see that little pa teet(sp) frame of yours being heavy enough to pond in the plug tight enough that the lawn cutting tractor wont just pull up and through it aside ,as i had happen when my father in law let me do his yard..lol so i had to go back and fix 3 or 4 of them . And yes hun always, always have a towel or an old t-shrit as i use,for one it looks good to on lookers that you are being respectful ,and of coerce all the dirt goes back in the hole .But as to the hole you need to get rid of that stupid digger your using and get yourself a good garden shovel ,i went through 3 of them before i got a good one that wont brake, yours to narrow more work.With mine i make like a 3 sided cercal or box ,always leave the 4th side un-dug as then the plug has a life line of sorts, other wise the plug could die, now when your ready to pop it out ,pray oppicide the spot you left ,put your other hand on the top of plug so the plug stays together,as you flip it .(Plug between your hand and the shovel)l ,then when your done put all dirt back in the hole,then flip the plug back in ,now i myself, ill pond the plug a few times with my fist,but its never quit enough so i then pond all around the seam of the plug and blend with the butt of my little shovel ,then a couple of ponds in the center of the plug,then lastly rack the grass with my fingers.so the grass looks normal and any dirt that remains is blended.It sounds like a lot but one you do it a few times it dose go a lot faster and you will achieve that ..make it look like you were never there appearance,and and when they cut the grass they should stay in place.As allways respectful your Canadian Fan.. Jean
Of course you may. :) Yea, you're about that. I'm still working on my digging, always room for improvement! :) Good tips! I'll keep these in mind the next time I head out, thanks Jean!!
the city going to love you for digging up there volly ball feild
Hahaha, yea. I didn't make a big mess though. One rain will settle that dirt sitting on top. :)
Pennies are made out of crap metal today (copper coated steel or zinc?) and deteriorate rapidly. The other day my club went to a park and found lots of pennies (Canada) from the 80's which were copper and in good condition. Coins used to have value in their metals, not anymore. :(
yeah well in the old days coins were worth for their amount of silver or gold they had each coin, now with the comodities WAY inflated, its cheaper to just make a coin with X cheap and resistant material and just give it a face value lol
J Manuel Villarreal True, but the metal is not inflated, rather the dollar is deflated. Worth about 1 or 2 cents of what it was originally. Many in the industry consider silver and gold to be well undervalued.
Digger D Watch what you are doing,I was passing up indian head pennys because I was rejecting what I thought were clad pennys,turns out I was getting the same readings as indian head. It was a good thing I double checked my digs. I had passed up a spill of almost a dozen of them because They read the same as clad junk coins. I almost filled a book that summer of indian head coins. Had I rejected them,I wouldnt have found any. If in doubt,dig it out. Visually seeing what you are digging is the only real way to know what it is you are digging. Especially in a trashy area.
scott firman Absolutely, I dig good signals even though I typically know what it is likely to be - it's always nice to be surprised!
Try Canadian coins - twoonies ($2) and loonies ($1) coins typically sound like junk. The $2 coin can sound like a copper penny while the $1 coin sets the Iron Audio nuts on my AT Pro ;)
We live relatively close to Canada being in Northern Mi, finding Canadian coins is as common as finding regular coins,up in Sault St. Marie Mi I found really old Canadian coins,that area was established before the United States even was. The french owned it first,then the Britts. It was fun getting all excited finding early 1900 to late 1800 coins up there,all Canadian of course. I remember my first mexican Paso.lol. Being we get many immigrants came up to pick Cherrys and Apples so metal detecting around their housing units produced scads of Mexican coinage. They would let their children play with them and they would end up all over the grounds. I got tired of digging them at one farm site and left. I will say,finding mexican silver rings with jade and other southern America type stones gave me a rush. I even found a beautiful opal ring mounted in silver. Thats always been my favorite stone so I never sell those rings. I have given my mom several of them. Finding a 24 k gold necklace is the best I ever found. Gave it to my sister.
the coins have bumps because of chemical when they fertilize the feild
Hey, you could be right about that! I hadn't thought about it being from chemicals.
@@SheDetector Hi, the reason those 1cent coins look bumpy and pitted like that is because they're 1983 and newer and has nothing to do with chemicals. Most 1982 and older cents are composed of 95% copper and 5% zinc, whereas starting in 1983 they were made of 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper. Copper is more resisted to the elements, soil etc.
I felt sorry for you on this hunt. You were working yourself to death with that trowel. If you do any more land digging, please take a small shovel. It makes life much easier. I highly recommend the brand Lesche.
GL & HH, my friend.
Brian
Hahahaha, yea, I had a hard time for sure! :D I'll look into those shovels, thanks!
42:06 inflation needle for sports balls. Threaded end is broken off. 42:17 looks like a small boat drain plug.
42.17 is a stud from a football boot, oops that's British. I mean a cleat from a soccer boot for you Americans :-)
Oh! That's good thinking! That didn't even cross my mind. I bet you're right.
Hahahaha! You're probably right about that too. It makes sense there would be a screw in it. :)
I know that your primarily a beach/water detectorist but I feel so bad watching you dig plugs, sounds painful for you. I broke down and bought a lesche and go all the way to my knees when I dig a plug rather than bending over. It helps when you have a bad back and gives you better leverage. Kind of why I am turning to beaches and water, just use my scoops now.
Lol! Yea, I'm just not very good at it and my muscles aren't built up for doing it. Hahaha. Ah well! That's good thinking on adjusting your digging to keep the strain off your back. Yea, I prefer the beach hunting, much easier! Hahaha.
that was cleet you found from the bottom of a sports shoe. Also, if you find spoons do not handle them unless you know they are not modern and they are antique , drug addicts use spoons to cook heroin on.
I love soccer fields, the players just throw there pants and coats on the ground and everything falls out.
Right you are! :)
Lawn mower made a meal of that penny! LOL
Also if you want to save some time, not that you do, but you can train your eye to pinpoint with that machine and there is no need for the pinpoint mode. With that coil it is extremely easy to do. Those penny's are made of zinc which corrodes quickly. Junk!
Platinum rings can give a mixed high to mid tone so..... might want to dig it all!
Hahahaha, sure did!
Yea, I'm sure over time I would figure that out. Most people say they don't use the pin point option either.
Good thinking! Thanks for the tip.
LMAO you was slumming it LOL dirt digging. Your a real Sheila when it comes to getting your hands dirty. Those sand bars have spoilt you dear. Still laughing over you fighting that shovel into the DIRT. All those grunts anybody would think it was hard going.
Lol! I sure was! I missed my beaches. :) Yea, I was doing a terrible job of digging. So much effort!!
I can really see you have land MD'ing potential :) But as me, I am 100% beach hunter ! GL & HH
Hahaha, yea I suppose I could do alright. But it's hard to stay away from those beaches! :D
je trouve super votre présentation du cz21. je possède ce détecteur depuis 2 ans mais je n'arrive pas a le régler convenablement. vous êtes ma solution mais je ne comprend pas beaucoup votre langue. Est il possible de traduire en français.
quoi qu'il en est vous etes charmante et votre présentation est trés bien. merci!
Je vous remercie! Et merci d'avoir regardé! Je suis désolé pour la barrière de la langue, c'est difficile à contourner. Je ne sais malheureusement pas le français. Je peux vous écrire en français mais je ne peux pas le dire.
I'm happy for your contact. La barrière existe mais elle n'est pas infranchissable, puis que nous parlons ensemble a présent, nous avons dépassé les frontières!
j'ai capturé votre vidéo et avec des amis nous allons essayés de traduire, avec le temps et la patience nous vaincrons
see you!
She Detector you speak french?
It's bing translator or google. I almost offended a Romanian coin hunter using bing translator as the translator(s) don't do a very good job, apparently (yet).
Oh missy ..and for gods ware gloves ..lol as iv fond a lot of glass under ground in my digs..kind of disturbing actually..
Hahaha, yea, I forgot them on this hunt. They were hanging off Ringer and since I didn't take him, the gloves got left behind too. Hahaha. :/
I hunt town ball fields too. usually change but I have found some jewellery. lots of pull tabs. grrr. keep hunting girl. ;)
Yea, I'm not surprised you find lots of pull tabs. Hahaha. Thanks for watching!
expandable plug. :)
Thanks for the info!
i missed you were you been she
Aw! I missed you too! I've been hiding. O_o
dont hide go find that hidden treasure its out there sum were lol
Right you are!
if you used it as long as I have - you will notice variations in its sounds- but thing is its best to dig it all - if you dig it all hopefully you will get it all - who wants to go back to the same beach and waste time get the same bad signals time after time - plus ive had a few golds go off as low tones now and then - usually small or thin white gold and found my share of gold or other goodies under iron that others passed up - www.flickr.com/photos/casper-2/6831926593/in/photostream/lightbox/
I'm sorry but I can not watch you .. your the most slowest detector I have ever seen .. it's like watching paint dry
Is it at least glitter paint? That could be fun to watch dry. :D
I watch a lot of detecting vids, and lightning pace gets old quick. Also, for beginners she presents a much more realistic idea of what a real hunt is like. I expect her videos will reflect her advancement in the hobby as time progresses. Keep up the good work, and keep the vids coming!
Lol! I like your comeback She Detector. Positive comeback! Good job.
@@SheDetector Ha ha!
Hahahahaha and that's why you can not have a puppy!!!!!! love it.
Lol!
I have hunted many ball fields areas soccer baseball football and found many coins and little trash.. however I've had the police called on me more times than I'd like to say. 20 times maybe. I always put plug back. they don't care. I use a long survivor knife not your too!s. works better for sure. loved the video though
Oh really? That's not surprising I suppose. :( Yea, some people mentioned I try some different things like a screw driver and such. I'll have to try it. :D
A good long Rambo style survival knife with a aerated back is great land tool. Cuts through roots easy. Just make a conical cut pop out plug scan plug and hole then put plug back
Serated back
Hey Larry,
In North Carolina, we have a soccer complex on the north side of town that goes back to the early 90's now I know this isn't that old but me and my friend found (hundreds) of quarters, pennies, nickels, and dimes along with the usual "can slaw" and other trash. We also found medallions, silver rings, some gold rings and earrings and such. I found a $130 gold rope necklace one day, myself. The grounds foreman(the ones that wear the white shirts tucked in and the beige slacks) didn't care, as long as we didn't detect the fields themselves. The reason for this is that it becomes a liability issue if a player twists an ankle, the city could be sued so they couldn't allow this "across the board", at least for that soccer complex but the wide, 10-50' sidelines and between each adjacent field was okay to metal detect.
I see your hunt didn't turn up a big profit better luck next time ps I think purple is your color
No it didn't. Oh well, like you said, better luck next time. :D Hahaha, well thank you! :D
Experience when learning a new machine is a valuable thing in itself. The better finds come after some quality learning time. Every machine has its own learning curve.
complimenti per il video...
bellissima ragazza.
saluti dall ' Italia!
Ciao a tutti il modo in Italia! Grazie! E grazie per la vision.
That plastic or rubber thing looks like a football cleat.
Oh yea! That makes sense actually. Hahaha. Thanks!
I don't care that you forgot the glovers. screw the "must have glove" haters.
Hahahaha! I agree! Ha!
She! ;) Why are you using a hand trowel when you have a shovel beside you 13:10 ??? ;) With a shovel you can cut a much nicer plug and work on the bottom of it - then when you put it back, most times the hole is invisible. This also preserves the roots of the grass bettererer :?) With the shovel - put your foot into it! lol Do I sound like a mother hen yet? ;) Watching you dig with that shovel - you're such a girly girl ;) HH
Well, I actually find the shovel very awkward due to it's length. Hahaha. But I should have used it more. :) Hahahaha! I like chickens....hens are chickens right? ;) lol! Hahaha, I know! I didn't do females any justice with my digging skills. But I got my hands dirty so I think that should count for something. :)
She Detector You got the job done, that's what counts but it was funny watching you trying to force that shovel into the ground without pushing on it with your foot :) Who do you think you are? Wonder Woman? ;)
Hahahaha! I sure did. :D I wish! I've got nothing on her! :D
Screwknot for a fotballshoe (european fotball) 👍
Oh yea! That makes sense. I hadn't thought about that. Thanks!
At 13:53, a stinkin' zincon lincoln, lol. The most unattractive of all the American pennies. Zinc, low quality metal, used in pennies after 1982. Steel pennies did this but because steel rusts to nothing. I actually dug the impression of a steel penny but no penny, lol.
Hahahaha! Oh wow, no way! It makes sense but that's crazy to think there used to be a penny there.
Yep and it was frustrating because I had always wanted to dig up a "wheatie" steel penny but I guess, in the back of my mind, I knew that since it was steel, it would've long since rusted away. On the beach, LOL, it would have totally disappeared in a couple of years.
Yea. I feel like I've heard of people digging up steel pennies but maybe I'm wrong. It makes sense that they would have rusted away. Hahaha, you're right about that.
