  • Today was an outstanding day on the beach. I recovered a 3Kt Diamond Wedding Ring with my Nokta Legend metal detector after the owner lost it in the dry sand. Check out the video to see this monster ring! I also found a heart shaped Opal ring, many coins, a toy Valley Forge canon, sunglasses, and many other items on the beach.
    I decided to go for a treasure hunt in the water at Delray Beach at sunrise, and then returned later in the day to hunt on the sand. Even though the tide was almost at the highest when I arrived, I still ventured into the water and found a small gold charm. The water at Delray Beach, FL was calm and clear.
    Then, at the end of the day, I returned to the beach to hunt the dry sand. At that time, a gentleman flagged me down and told me that his friend's wife had lost a ring and needed my help. After hunting where she lost it, I discovered the huge 3Kt Diamond Ring set in a Silver setting. I was thrilled top help them get their ring back.
    Good carma came my way, as I also found a second Opal ring in the sand shortly thereafter.
    As I got there at sunrise, I also filmed a time-lapse of the sun coming up over the Atlantic Ocean with my GoPro. I'll post that as a separate video in my TimeLapse Playlist.

    Nice hunt Howie, and I think the ring spells MOM with the opal as the O. Thanks for sharing, and I'm always so envious of the beautiful locations you get to hunt. By the way, what headphones do you use in the water?

    • @howiegrapek
      @howiegrapek  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh yeah... "MOM" - I didn't see that (I am a guy after all and really don't know much about jewelry. ;).... Very cool.
      I love where I hunt too.. this weekend, I'll be heading to the west coast of florida and doing a weekend adventure on some of the best beaches in Florida - I'm bringing my drone, and should be able to capture some great images. Maybe even do a timelaps of sunsets and the night sky. I'm also looking to try to get photos of the comet and night sky (milky way). I've never been there, so it should be exciting.
      The headphones I use in the water are wired to the Legend and totally waterproof. I have a friend in Australia who recommended "Detect-Ed". They are SUPER loud, and the tones are crisp and clear, even when totally submerged. From their website: Detect-Ed has collaborated with SeaGhost Engineering to create the clearest, most reliable waterproof headphones on the market. They make them for other brand detectors as well. I must say, they really are good. The wires have strain reliefs and I've beat them up a bit when in rough surf... they hold up great. They are $144 USD and they shipped them to me in less than 1 week. Super nice folks. I'm working on getting a discount code from them, but even at the retail price, well worth it in my opinion.

We'll be talking about settings on the Legend, and differences with the other detectors. it should be a good one.

    Have a question for you. I have had my legend for about a year and hunt the beaches but have never tried in the water. Do the headphones work if the display is submerged? I was under the impression they didn’t and you have to get wired headset. Also what settings do you use underwater? Just beach wet? Thanks

    • @howiegrapek
      @howiegrapek  หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's a good question. With my wireless headphones, I generally don't submerge the display much deeper than my elbows. In that situation, I always hear signals clearly in the headset and there is no dropouts. I don't go very deep with those for fear that I'll drown my headphones and go-pro. When I go deeper, I plan and use the "water proof" wired headphones, and have the go-pro in its waterproof housing. I've been 10 meters down with no issues. That said - with bluetooth technologies, wireless signals to headphones may have issues if the head unit (transmitter) is submerged deeper, but I don't have any first hand experience in that situation.
      As for settings, yes, I start with "beach wet" mode, turn sensitivity down to 22, do a ground balance as I walk into the water, and it works well.

      Well, I’ve returned many items, and always will try to find the rightful owner of lost valuable items. In this case it was easy to know who it was, as he asked me to find it. I’ve returned cell phones, and other valuable items in the past. My thought process is that I ask myself, if I lost it, how would I feel. There is plenty of treasure to be found. My bucket list items include real shipwreck treasure. But Gold and Diamonds certainly help support the hobby. Thanks for watching!

      Junk ring, not real, about $10 bucks. Aliexpress sells them all day long, free shipping from China.

      @@FXNorm I don't know. Based on the way the family reacted, and how happy she was, I doubt that it was fake. Someone mentioned that it was a lab grown diamond.. even that, not a CZ.... regardless, If it was a china knockoff, and her husband purchased it for her, I don't care, and she didn't know. Either way, it was a great return. Thanks for watching. It is a really fun hobby.

      The Minelab Equinox series of detectors are awesome - you should get some great discoveries with it. it is great exercise and tons of fun. I meet fellow detectorists on the beach quite often, and enjoy talking and detecting with everyone. Yes, I hope to see you out there as well. I frequent Delray Beach quite often - sometimes early in the morning, other times late in the day and into the evening. I also like to explore many other beaches - Thanks Judy for watching. Many more adventures to come.
