Minelab Equinox: Recovery Speed & Swing Speed Experiment Metal Detecting NYC

Your swing speed while using the Minelab Equinox matters a lot! As does the recovery speed that you set on your metal detector.

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 16 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:

Minelab Soveriegn: (Coming Soon)

I have a playlist of metal detecting videos to teach metal detecting. The videos in the playlist below are specifically made to teach the skills and mindset to becoming a great metal detectorist.

I am a treasure hunter. So in addition to metal detecting, I go mudlarking at sites such as Dead Horse Bay. Think of mudlarking as metal detecting without a metal detector.

My most important series is called Becoming A Millionaire Metal Detecting. I am trying to monetize my favorite hobby in order to do it more in the future. In other words, we put the clad we find in the ground, affiliate earnings, and merchandise earnings in to the stock market and we invest it. This show started in January 2019.

The little clip thing is part of a suspenders that clamp to your britches.

Hey Merrill, I always hunt in high recovery 5-7, high sensitivity 23+, Medium to slow speed of swing in trashy parks. Higher sensitivity and slower swing speed makes up for the loss of depth due to higher separation, but still allows you to separate those deep targets out. Always home in on those promising squiks. This set up clears and amplifies these targets when they are good. All metal will add depth and clarity to signal.

I think mystery windscreen scraper is a lady's suspender clip from a suspender belt.. The wee teeth gripped the top of the stocking. Some woman had a bad day in the park, and her suspender/ stocking arrangements went ping! :)

Cant wait for a bit of good weather...serious cabin fever going here...good luck

Sorry Merrill they are all wrong !! Back in the day, men had garter straps that wrapped around their legs just below the knee to hold up their socks. In the days before we had elastic materials.

Great hunt Merrill! You did great on the Ihps!👍👍

Awesome video as always! Was really hoping your friend would have given you the subway token you are missing. After all you gave him an Indian and it would have been nice. I was expecting to see it but he probably just wasn't paying attention when you told him it was the only one you didn't have lol.Seemed like a good enough guy though. Greetings from Da Nang Vietnam where the beach detecting is so cool. I actually learned so much about how to detect the beach from your vids. Many thanks brother

You should grab one of those full size digging tools if you're going to be going so deep every target.

Great hunt with a lot of nice buttons, and quarters. ATB, Sebastian

I think you had a GREAT DIGG. I also love the Train Token.

[philbobaggins]

my favorite equinox coil is the 6 inch it can get similar depth to the standard 11 inch but depth is a very overrated factor. Separation is the thing you really want especially in trashy or thrashed sites. I have also noticed that with a faster recovery speed the swing speed can be increased also which actually increases depth .Just try a normal swing speed with a recovery speed of 7 and when you find a signal that sounds week from depth increase your swing speed to a fast whip over the target and you may notice that the strength of the signal improves.

Cool experiment, I'm interested in trying this out myself now!

[normawinton]

Nice job finding the IHP'S!! OH AND TACO BELL RING TOO😁 that dude calling u a sicko needs a slap in the faceO!

[caspermetaldetecting-donde]

Keep meaning to ask...Do you guys need permits? to hunt NY parks - beaches

[DETECTOMETAL]

Exelente video amigo. Abrazo grande desde Rosario santa fe Argentina 🇦🇷🤜🤛🍀

[herbertbrown]

I know you run in Park 2 but what settings you got it set up as in park 2, , , is the rest standard settings

[TracysTreasures]

So.. mr teacher, chat maker man.
I still struggle with what signals to dig...
What does a Indian head ring up as? Or a 2 cent piece... or a buffalo head..
I need to know!!
Thanks!

[mrnavy]

I notice you only use hand shovels. Can you use a little larger shovel, like a Grave Digger shovel?

[kayesdigginit]

Spring 🌹🥀🌼🌱 is almost upon us!! The buttons you found are beauties; I sure hope you'll be able to get them identified ☺ Congrats on the ring find, what is your ring total so far, for 2020? Y'all don't empty out that park before I can get there to hunt with you, okay 👍😀

How do you get permission to dig at city parks? Like Prospect Park.
