METAL DETECTING mystery. How did I do it?

- G'day folks. Out and about metal detecting with the Minelab Equinox 900 and the six inch coil this week. I put an experimnet to the test after viewer questions and come up with the goods. Wild silver and another token.
Shout out to Gareth @TheDukesOfDerbyshire

Thanks for hunting out my CZcams channel.
My name is Andrew, so why do they call me The Coffee Bush Kid? I may have found the odd gold coin or two in the middle of the coffee bush where others fear to tread.
Metal detecting in Central Victoria, Australia. Goldfields relics, treasures, and the odd Aussie critter.

Great concept covering the screen and relying on sounds. Such fun. I personally love using everything available to assess a target but I might try this one day too. Thanks for sharing 😊
Gday Camille. I too usually like to have everything available but thought I would do this for a bit of fun. Payed off alright. Thanks for watching 😁👍
Great video Andrew and I loved all the shotty ends 😂😂
I can't believe that you had nice soft ground to dig , you usually have to fight your way through the rocks and roots.
Looking forward to the next upload 👍
Bit of a mystery tour of signals Andrew, that small coil works a treat too, cool silver thrupence and very nice token, neat way of learning tones, great episode my friend. Say hi to Viv, ATB Bill and Julie X 👍 ❤️ 😀
Gday Bill. Just wanted to chase repeatable targets but it was funny as to “ do I like this tone or not”. If they repeated I dug it. Did well too but I was over the shotty ends. Say hi to Julie. Hope you are both well 🦘🦘😁👍
Thumbs up
That's the way to do it... listen to the tones.
Great recommendation of Gareth's channel. He's a great guy.
Awesome as usual, Andrew 😊
Gday Craig. Was a good bit of fun with some good and interesting finds coming up. Thanks for watching mate. Hope everyone is well 🦘🦘😁👍
Excellent, I usually use my headphones only and ignore the visual. Also the size of target can be determined by swinging the coil slowly and just listening. This technique has given me ability to avoid most pop cans . I run a AT Gold here in the Niagara area of Southern Ontario Canada. It takes me time to learn the sounds of other machines such as the Deus and Minelab but as I watch the various videos I am gaining insight on audio detecting. I do find that various countries have different soil compositions and thus different signals.
Love the smell a vision 😂 nice finds I will have to try that method God Bless and stay safe Cheers mate
Gday Terry. Was just a bit of fun. Thought the area might have something good left and it did. Thanks for watching. Take care mate 😁👍
Learning so much each time, I like listening to tones too😊
Repeatable ones are the go Brun😁👍
Awesome finds today CONGRATULATIONS on ur token 😊
Thanks Robin for watching 😁👍
Great demo that anyone can try. Thanks for sharing!
No worries Dug. Hope you are well 🦘🦘😁👍
Bloody great video as alway Andrew well done love ya finds keep up what your doing mate 🙂👍💯
Thanks Tony. Pleased that you are enjoying the show 😁👍
Hi Andrew! I love the video, mate! The part where upu said "inhale" and "EXALE" 😂😂 It was soo funny. Lots of awesome finds, including silver and token! Nice one! Thanks for sharing, cya on the next! 👍
Gday Henry. Was a good bit of fun and it payed off. Everyone keeps asking what numbers to dig so I wanted to do a video with no numbers to see what came out. Reckon we did alright. Hope you and the family are well 🦘🦘😁👍
Learn through individual experiences. 😊
Nice work Andrew, great experiment mate, It didn't slow you down, still plenty of great finds and the whole box of 25 shoty ends, so that means there's about a 1000 little shoty pellets out there to find. Cheers Pete
Gday Pete. 1000 shotty pellets means 10 bits of gold but hopefully get the ratio down a bit🤣. Was a bit of fun cos lots of people ask what numbers they should dig. Go the repeatable signals. Thanks for watching. Take care mate 😁👍
👍👍
Great video again Andrew and some nice bits and pieces and also a great selection of shotties . Even some wild silver and a token in great condition. Mish will probably come back now to see if you left any tokens for her. I can see you've been really missing your 6 inch coil. I often watch the Dukes of Derbyshire and also the Scottish Detectorist,and of course Digger Dawn. Cheers and catch you on the next one.
Gday Gary. I hope Mish gets back up here and finds that token. A few have been coming out of late. Yes I have been missing the 6” coil. Have done the deposit for the M8 coil. Hopefully that will be out soon. Take care mate 😁👍
Well done on another token, agree ear is your best weapon. Better setup than blindfolding yourself with all the shafts around😱
Yes Guy, blindfolds are not the go in central Vic. Very happy and sad with that token. Mish may well be sad about it too. Hope she gets one soon. Take care mate 😁👍
Nice hunt ,buttons , poor Mish you are taken all the tokens.
I do hope I leave some for her somewhere 😁👍
Nice one Andrew. That glass silver thing was interesting!...Boy all those shottys made me feel a whole lot better after finding all rust today! Lol. PS... YOU ARE THE TOKEN KING!
Thanks Daniela. It would look that way. Shotty ends do give a good signal 😁👍
Better get a white cable cover & a white coil so you can be the Blind Detectorist.
No wonder Viv says she has to lead you everywhere.
Well done Mate !
Thanks Chris. Was a bit of fun that paid off 😁👍
As I stand there wiggling the coil over the target THE big question- do I dig or keep moving? We use several data points to make our decision and numbers can easily find their way to the top of the heap. But should they? I've been pondering that for a bit but I never even thought to hide the little buggers! Thanks for a splendid idea. as well as a good video to enjoy a morning cup with. Next big question- should the detector or the fishing pole find its way to the truck....decisions, decisions. I though retirement was supposed to be easy!
Gday Greg. This was a bit of fun that payed off ok but really you do want every bit of info we can get to decide whether we dig or not even though it is always recommended to dig everything. That was a long sentence. Thanks for watching. I would put both in 🤣🦘🦘😁👍
Interesting Andrew the mystery signals challenge, so many shotgun cap ends but one high tone turned out yet another token and a lovely little silver. You will have to try detecting blind folded for a laugh, would be a challenge 😀
Gday Tony. Blindfolded would be a challenge among all the shafts. There were a lot of shotty ends but they did give a good signal. Very happy to get a silver and a token. Hope you are well mate 🦘🦘😁👍
Great work Andrew, what a great idea and I will definitely head over and check out the channel, I should try it with the Gold Monster 🤘
Gday Josh. Could be interesting with the monster. Was just a bit of fun. Wanted to see what came up with just repeatable signals. Hope you are well mate 😁👍
Well done Cbk, just goes to show what to listen for.
Glad you enjoyed watching Derek 😁👍
Oh love that token 👌
Thanks Darren 😁👍
Another great vid Andrew. Thankyou for the content. Can I ask you about tokens. What were they used for, how much were they worth and how were they obtained. Maybe cover in your next vid. Thanks mate.
Gday Peter. Here is a link to something I prepared earlier. Thanks for watching 😁👍
czcams.com/video/SPbocmzMpp8/video.htmlsi=Xjkpf8NcHuIyrHCz
That's a interesting approach to detecting Andrew I might try doing that to sharpen my ears. Ya got a few cool things. Hahaha so many shotgun cases. Great video Andrew
Gday Gadzee. Just a bit of fun at a dump site. Very happy with what I got. Bloody shotty ends give a good sound. Very happy with the token. Take care mate 😁👍
@@TheCoffeeBushKid they do sound really good I've dug up plenty but never that many in one session. Yeah that token is awesome that's on my bucket list of finds. You take care too Andrew 😃
Howdy Andrew, That was an interesting experiment. Numbers can be your enemy or your friend. Say your in a park and you've dug up 2 dozen pull tabs that ring up 14 to 19 on my Nox 800. Well I'm sick of getting up and down, up and down to dig pull tabs so I stop digging those numbers even if there a good repeatable signal. Experience has taught me that you can get some really desirable finds (even gold) in that target range. So do the numbers save my knees by keeping me from digging pull tabs (the friend) or stop me from digging something great (the enemy). I don't know the answer.
I see you have some flowers blooming down there so I guess Spring has sprung on you. The trees around here have just started loosing some leaves but there are still plenty of fall flowers and very warm days ahead before winter. Fall is my favorite season and I'm looking forward to it.
Good on you for finding the thrip and the token. I reckon Mish will find her token someday. She's a very determined person. Hope you and Viv are doing well and enjoying life. Your buddy, Roelf.
Gday Roelf. This was a good bit of fun. I get lots of people asking me what numbers should they dig. I say go the repeatable signals so I put my money where my mouth is and did this one. Was over digging the shotty ends though. Very happy with the thrip and the token.
Yes spring is in the air. Days are getting longer and warmer. Out in the paddocks and bush the bulbs are coming up and the fruit trees are in blossom so you can pick out where old dwellings were. Good time for exploring.
Yes Mish is very determined. She will get one one day. Hope it is soon. I seem to be getting one a week at the moment. We are both well. Hope you and Jan are too. Take care mate 🦘🦘😁👍
nice one Andrew
Thanks cobber 😁👍
Shot gun round bases made me laugh Andrew as they are my ring pull equivalent. Better dig them, though, as it could be a sovereign
You do never know what will come out of the ground. They were good signals so they had to come out. Thanks for watching 😁👍
G’day Andrew, well done mate, going in blind is the go I think, us vintaged detectorist can sometimes be over thinking what we dig, I’m guilty of cherry picking good numbers thinking it’s going to be good, usually I eat my words and it’s crap 😂,
Poor Mish she should probably go back to using the Nox 😂..
only joking Mish you’re intune with your machine,
Just have to swing over it ,
Makes no difference whatsoever what detector we use.
Gday Jim. It was just a bit of fun. Just a different angle and it answers a question that lots of people ask as to what numbers to dig. Repeatable signals are the go.
I was happy and sad to pull that token out. She must not have swung over that bit of ground. Hope you and Betty are well. Take care mate 😁👍
That was great Andrew, what a ripper token and thrip!! Fingers crossed Mish gets to detect with you again sometime and digs one 😃 so many shotty ends 🥴 Enjoyed just listening to the plip plops 😃
Gday Lee. There was a lot of plip plop to listen to. Very happy with the token and the thrip but will be happier when Mish gets a token. Been finding quite a few of late. Take care mate 😁👍
Great little hunt there Mr coffee bush kid I love the token that's awesome. I'm just going to throw in a little constructive criticism with no ill feelings as I love watching your videos with respect I was wondering if you could turn the volume down on your pinpointer as it is very loud and I usually have the volume up so I can hear your narrative which is always interesting. Cheers on another great video 👍
Gday Dave. No problem with criticism. The pin pointer does not have a volume switch. It is loud. I have noticed myself if I start it on screen it is loud in the start up. I will try to remember to start it behind me to make it quieter. Thanks for the continued watching 😁👍
Ive found, now days that I dig everything, because quite a few targets ive dug, that had poor readings and or, poor audio response have turned out to be better than expected targets, of course with that usually comes a bag full of rubbish, Good numbers and audio dont always represent good targets, But i always start off cherry picking the better responses, and work my way down from there, Cant say ive found that many shotty's in one hunt before, But you still managed, buttons a token and wild silver! If it repeats, dig it! Cheers Andrew! definitely a different experience!
Gday Wayne. Yes it was a bit different. Was over the shotty ends. Lots more were actually dug but there is only so much people can watch. People always ask what numbers to dig and this was just to show that as you say, a repeatable signal is the thing to go by. Did find a couple of gems though. Mish must not have swung over that bit of ground. Great to find but I wish she had got it. Hope you are well. Take care mate 😁👍
@@TheCoffeeBushKid Goodmorning Andrew, Im pretty sure that when Mish does find a token, she will be in your good company, out amongst the coffee bush. cant wait to see her reaction when she does! Hope you and Viv are doing ok as well, and the same goes for Mish! Cheers Mate!
Hello Mr Coffee Bush I Said It Before You Are The Token King Well Done Mate.
It may seem that way. Thanks for watching Gavin 😁👍
Love your videos, even though, as an American, I don't know a lot of your Aussie slang terms (ie...'bloody ripper'?') LOL. Anyway, I would love to know where you got that cord wrap/protector. I'm constantly swinging in areas just rife with thorns, and I'm always afraid of puncturing the insulation on the coil lead. Thanks!
Gday Michael. Glad you enjoy the videos. Sorry you are having trouble with the lingo. The covers are Snake Skinz. This is the link

Tell them the Coffee Bush Kid sent you. Good luck 🦘🦘😁👍
Hey thank you SO much! I will definitely mention you sent me! And even though I don't understand a lot of your slang, I find it very interesting. It's something fresh and different for a change! 😉
nonsense. the first silver ring i dug. was a low stuttered tone in the 40's. really sporadic tone. very small ring. have a good day
Show how to operate the 900 like which buttons do what
@@tomcostley7204 if you look at the equinox 900 manual on line it will tell you what buttons do what. 😁👍
is that a Pro-40 ....what do you think about it now?
Pinpoints deeper than the 35 and has a quick reset button which is very handy. I like it 😁👍
Show step one with which button then step 2 then step3 try making it more simple for the people with comprehension problems
I like to go by sound the difference in tones tells me what’s there
The old ring pull gives a Morse code type sound dot dash dot
As it goes over the hole of the ring lol
Nice finds Andrew great idea to learn your sounds
Cheers 🍻

Gda Crouch. Was a bit of fun on a site that I reckoned still had a bit of potential left in it. Very happy with the thrip and the token. Hope you are well. Take care mate 😁👍
