Hi, my name is Merrill Kazanjian. New York City is an amazing place to go metal detecting. We have lots of parks, colonial history and great beaches for beach detecting. I have gone to all five boroughs of New York City To Metal Detect and beyond. I also currently own 22 metal detectors. I want to have the best and I want to help you choose the best as well. Below I will showcase some of the playlists on this channel:

Merrill, I found a copper spear head about 20 years ago while detecting in a wooded area just outside of Chicago. Gave it to the Museum of Science and Industry for their Native American display. The director told me it was from the Archaic Period, approximately around 3000 BCE. After some cleaning it was placed on display with other Native American artifacts in their collection. I love going there and seeing it on display, I felt it was the right thing to do. Keeping such a rare artifact in a private collection unseen would be a shame.

Good tips Merrill. My friends think I waste too much time researching areas I want to hunt. But then they wonder why I’ve found such good finds. I must be really lucky I guess. lol A detector shop owner friend of mine went with me to an old State Fair site that had been abandoned for many years. Allot of the it had dirt streets when it first became a Fair Grounds. It was just being developed again when I got permission to hunt the site. I had found pockets full of silver coins before even telling my friend about the place. I was allowed to use whatever means necessary to dig up coins and such. My friend found what appeared to be a silver dollar under the asphalt roadway in front of the grandstands where horse racing took place. He worked for over an hour pecking at the asphalt with a screwdriver and hammer to retrieve his target. I went on and was doing well without having to need a pick. For all of his work he retrieved a very nice copper washer. He was so sure it was a coin. We laughed about it later but since he had to find out what it was. We knew there wasn’t aluminum cans back when the road was paved. It was just something you had to dig.😢 John

Copper culture is fascinating for sure! We usually find 3 or 4 pieces a year. The first one I ever found was a celt/chisel. The first thing I wondered was who would make a chisel out of Copper. I googled Copper chisel. Then I realized how it ended up under the roots of a huge old growth tree. If you ever end up in Wisconsin I'll be happy to take you out to find one.

Awesome... I live in a later settled part of the states I've found 1852 prolly won't find much older here. Couple years ago I changed up my main method of site choosing. Rather then try to go places that no one has searched. I decided everyone was doing that and consequently these "unsearched" type of areas were very searched. So I started hitting places that people would say everyone searched or that area has been overly searched. I have done quite well detecting the places that others in the community would say everyone has allready detected.

Hi Merrill, I detect Farms and Beaches here in the UK. The Farms produce most of the historic finds but like you say, an efficient swing is needed and the decent finds are few and far between. Maybe 2 percent are keepers after 6 hours or more swinging and digging for most. Often in the rain or over roughly cultivated ground. The ground can be frozen, muddy or dry and hard like concrete. Even if the field is not in crop the weeds or grass can make it difficult. Even getting there can be tricky with flooding on roads and muddy farm tracks to navigate and slippery soft waterlogged fields to park on. But whatever comes we turn out because detecting is great fun and good exercise!

Part of the Virginia Military District alotted to veterans of the Revolution. It lays along the main east-west route from Cincinnati to points east. I've found draped bust silver and copper, reales, and other 1700s silvers/coppers. Location is everything. Thanks for the video!

Excellent video Merrill and you couldn’t be more correct on the subject. The way towns/cities are laid out in our modern age is vastly different than during our early agrarian times in this country. Those meandering paths and stonewalls in the woods today were busy home/farm sites 200 yrs ago. 20 years of relic hunting has taught me the lessons that you pointed out in your video. Honestly a book could be written on the subject.

Thanks for your video series on this important topic. In our first years me and my detecting buddies only detected in public parks and from time to time on some random farm permissions. The finds weren't bad, but since we put some more effort into our research the finds have definitley improved. Our favourite spots are old picnic areas, former road intersections, old taverns, solitary old trees and especially elevated spots in the landscape with either some strategic value or a very picturesce view. When we come back from detecting next weekend I have to show my friends your video. We'll have a drink every time you mention that nice valley in Dakota 😂

The song actually made folks mad, because it was true, and many abandoned farms for easier, more exciting city lives, with weekends off and better paychecks. Thanks for a great video.

It was nice to see my son's alma mater on your point map. SUNY Maritime.

let me get this correct. The property that has been in the family since 1763 next to a RR depot, along the Wilderness Road coming out of Virginia in Kentucky on the Cumberland River. That would be a place to find great artifacts, and coins.

Love old "copper" culture..... I've found many artifacts, including an unlimited supply of doughnut holes. 😊 very tiny holes left behind by the coppers !!
