I learned this week that diamonds conduct electricity, that's why you have to make sure you are touching the metal strip on your tester, but, synthetic stones also conduct electricity, so make sure you have your diamonds looked at by a jeweler. Great hunt.
@@WaynePBA This from Claude.. Pure diamonds are excellent electrical insulators and do not conduct electricity well. However, there are some important nuances: Natural diamonds can have impurities or defects that may allow some electrical conductivity, though this is typically very minimal. Synthetic diamonds can be doped with elements like boron to make them semiconductive or even superconductive at very low temperatures. Diamond's thermal conductivity is actually quite high - it conducts heat very well, which is different from electrical conductivity. This combination of properties - being electrically insulating but thermally conductive - makes diamond interesting for certain electronics applications, particularly as a heat spreader in high-power electronic devices.
In the 1950's, the 1960's, and the 1970's *(I graduated in 1972),* most public high school and trade school class rings were manufactured from 10 carat gold by a few select companies in the United States that specialized in high school class rings. Because so many people attending public high schools were blue-collar poor to middle-class economically, 10 carat gold was about all they could afford, and it took many families the entire senior school year to save up the money necessary to pay for a class ring. Lay-a-way payment plans for poor families were not uncommon. I had an after-school job stocking shelves in a local grocery store and by necessity paid for my own ring as my parents could not afford to do so.
From what I recall Brian found more gold with the Deus on the beach, compared to the Manticore. Garden tests etc will just not compare with real searching conditions, maybe the Deus is not as deep, but depth is not everything, the Manticore does makes a louder sound. The best way to test is end of the day search results compared, over a longer period of time. You just cannot replicate real search conditions.
Great video,nice finds really surprised by the performance difference between the Deus 2 and the manticore, seems like he didn't have it set up optimaly.
I don’t know how long you have owned the Kees tester. But I own one and I find the pens dry out very quickly. If you have a solution on how to keep them moist I appreciate if you would let me know
I have been using the plastic bag the pen comes in to keep it as fresh as possible. I know it will dry out eventually, but I plan to purchase another pen. Hopefully it lasts a long time in the plastic bag.
Very nice finds on the beach Mr Harps! I graduated in 1975 so yes its old like me LOL. Really great gold rings and earring. God Bless!!

No, diamonds are electrically nonconductive but are thermally more conductive than copper.
@@dkm016 Electricity passes through them which makes the connection.

The M9 is such a great coil I feel like I’m digging targets as deep as the 15” coil sometimes. Great hunt awesome finds!
Cool hunt thanks!!!!!
Awesome Brian, great gold, great job!!
👍👍👍
You got to know how to use the Deus2. Just like any machine you have to put the time in. Some prefer the Deus2 if you know how to use it.

I’d love to see some relic hunting videos with the Manticore.

@@peterrobinson5438 he had it set up right. I think that it was the angle
Maybe Santa will bring me an M9 coil this Christmas 😂

Bonjour, votre collège avec son deus2 a til une chaine youtube ? Merci
