HELLO! Hope you're doing well today! I know I am!
Today we are beach metal detecting testing out the new Minelab X-Terra ELITE metal detector. (NOT SPONSORED)
It's not always about the metal detector... there is LUCK, TIMING and PERSISTENCE involved...
Previous episode - Metal Detecting The LEGEND (This coil is Awesome)
• Metal Detecting The Le...
I enjoy trying different metal detectors to keep things fresh and test how each works while learning their strengths and weaknesses along the way.
Metal Detectors I currently use in my videos:
In this video I was testing the Minelab XTerra Elite.
Nokta Makro Simplex +
Nokta Legend
Garrett Ace Apex
Minelab Vanquish 440
Minelab X-Terra PRO
Minelab Equinox 600
XP Deus II
XP ORX
(TOO MANY!)
Gear I use while detecting-
Gopro Action Camera
Cheap Amazon Hand Digging Tool
XP Pinpointer
Thank you for your time!

I believe...and correct me if I'm wrong. This may be THE FIRST documented case of someone actually finding the chain AFTER the pendant was located lol. I've been doing this for 15 years and NEVER found the chain once. GOOD JOB!

Always look... NEVER find it!!

I'm pretty confident that your Jesus figure is made of (white Gold), because it would have to say that there is also 925 ( sterling) as well. I don't think they would mix junk metal with precious metal. Great Hunt and congratulations on all your finds. 🙂👍

Can be this detector able to detect gold bar or bullion 5 meters under the ground? Thanks for your response in advance

@mickbalton7028 12 күн бұрын

Well done on the chain...buy yourself a new pouch,before you start losing gold..determination is all you need to find gold..but the better the machine,the more you will find,

They are waterproof without the cap. The cap is more for dust and dirt build up. Salt water may cause some corrosion with cap

How cute was the pink paw. ☺ It was good to see that the sand flattener didn't scoop up much of the surface, leaving the treasures in tact. The one on our beaches here actually sifts the sand to remove 💉and stuff, so it probably scoops up most of the treasures, as well.

Great hunt AUSTIN. The zipper you have to get it back on the other teeth too try a strait screw driver insert on the sidethat is off the track on the zipper pull give a lil twist to spread that side just wide enough to get it back on track then slide it all the way back (wide open)and squeeze the opening WITH needlenose pliers back to original size should fix it TRY AND SEE IF IT ZIPPS THEN ADJUST IT TO WORK GOOD AS POSSIBLE.....

Hey Austin. Awesome finds. It's a great feeling when you know your finds have paid for the detector...and on the first outing! By the way, from what I can tell on Minelab's website, the X-Terra Pro coils are compatible with the Elite. So your v8x should work on the Elite also. My Elite hasn't arrived yet, so haven't confirmed myself.

Could I ask you for a little advice please? ..I’ve only been out in the field opposite my house in the countryside UK and it’s constantly beeping with numbers bouncing all over the place. I think I might have the sensitivity up too high? How do I turn it down?!🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ve been watching videos online and you sound very knowledgeable so I’m hoping you don’t mind but would understand if you have more important things to do! Any help would be very much appreciated👍

It depends but the simplest way is if it's precious getting the scrap price of gold or silver that day and then weigh whatever you have. But that really only gives you a scrap value, some things can be worth a lot more than the metal price!

It has sentimental value. It's sacred. When I hear someone selling his old companion for a brand-new one is very heartbreaking. That's the generations of today folks. No wonder husband's and wives nowadays ont last long. The old values s gone. 😊
