Some beautiful rings! You commented that one of the copper wheat pennies was 1943. If it is, that coin is worth a lot of money. Most 1943 pennies are steel because of the need for copper during the war. So the copper ones are very rare!
Hi D Bailey , thank you . I have been looking for that wheat penny. So far no good . Thanks for watching .
yeah depends on the markings as well - cool video - we usually stay at the wyndham lazy river condos there - great beach!
Hi Maria, thank you . Thanks for watching .
Intaglio bloodstone signet ring…. Beautiful 😍
Hi Lorymack , it is a beauty . Thanks for watching .
Always a joker in the bunch lol. Thanks for taking us along.
Hi Gary , I know , and I was recording my open . lol Oh well , that's how it goes sometimes. Thanks for watching .
That's the kind of hunt that keeps a person going back out for more
Hi Ben , that's right . You just never know what you will find with a metal detector . Thanks for watching .
Two nice rings! YAY YOU! The gold ring with the pink stones is really pretty.
Hi Marianne , thank you . Gave it to my wife. Thanks for watching .
The bracket was an electrical conduit pipe clamp to be used with unistrut. Great hunt and nice rings!!
Hi Cory , good to know . Thanks for watching .
Yes it's called a strut strap.
E s esssssss
1943 copper penny is over a million dollars buddy
Hi Dream Green Gardens , I think I misread a 1945 because I can't find it . Thanks for watching .
Nice hunt Daytona I think you have some keen opportunity there!
Hi Tom , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Wow that beach is low! Great job on finding the rings and silver coins.
Hi guys , it sure is . We were sanded in for weeks before the storm. Its now about as low as I have ever seen it . Some silver coins still showing up . Thanks for watching .
OMG!!! What a fantastic find. Maybe one day I'll be so lucky. I'm a huge fan of your videos.
Hi Jen & Mike Mongeau , thank you . Just have to keep swinging. You just never know what will show up . Thanks for watching .
Wow on the various finds for the day. The 1916 Christmas ring is really a great find. Keep swinging....Fred in Texas
Hi Fred , that ring has been out there a long time. Makes you wonder just how many nice rings are out there that are just too deep to hear. It keeps things interesting . Thanks for watching .
metal bracket is a" Conduit Strap Clamp" ...Nice Rings...
Hi Dane , good to know . Thank you , and thanks for watching .
Double GOLD Double SILVER SPECTACULAR FINDS CONGRATS ON A AWESOME HUNT AND VIDEO. I got a surface find SILVER BRACELET with the girls name on it this past Sunday.

1916!!! Very nice find... 👍
Hi Andreas Hermann , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Nice old gold ring for sure., one of the oldest and nicest I’ve seen come off the beach this go round. Congrats!
Hi Gary , it is a beauty . I can only imagine some of the stuff that is still out there at deeper levels . Thanks for watching .
Well done what a brilliant hunt two very nice rings keep the videos coming
Hi William , more on the way . Thanks for watching .
Great hunt. Makes my heart hurt to see the beach like that. So glad you did so well.✌❤
Hi Karen , the sand is starting to wash back in . It has a long way to go . Thanks for watching .
Happy for you brother have a joyful wknd god bless you
Hi Jay , thank you . You too , thanks for watching .
I love the old ring with scrolling and carved stone.
Hi Sher , that is one of my best finds last year . The inscription inside makes it extra special to me . I wonder how many times I may have walked right over it but it was too deep to hear until the hurricanes . Thanks for watching .
Man, you handle that metal detector and scoop deftly. Seriously! The devastation on that beach is sad to look at, but I’m glad it turned out well for you. Keep ‘em coming, please. I’m fighting cancer and am living vicariously through your videos.👍
Hi Jim , thank you . They are working every day to get the beach back to normal . It has been good for metal detecting . More videos on the way . I hope you feel better soon. Thank you for watching .
Double gold ring day!!! Outstanding job chasing those deep signals Brian!
Hi Baystate Plugflipper , thank you . More on the way. Thanks for watching .
Nice ring. Showed my wife and now she added one like that to her Christmas list. Lol.
Hi Mark , thank you . A ring is always a nice gift! Thanks for watching .
Great finds, especially the gold and black onyx ring. I'm really surprised that it held up so well in the sand.
Hi Carol Ricks-McDougald , gold is twice as heavy as lead . I would say it sank so deep that it just sat there till the storm moved it . Thanks for watching .
Gosh dang. That propane tank! 😳 Great hunt. Thanks for sharing. Peace from Ohio. ✌️ 👍 🤙
Hi Chris , I had to leave it . It wouldn't fit in my pouch . lol Thanks for watching .
That ring was definitely an awesome find.... Love the videos keep up the good work
Hi Richard , thank you . More on the way , thanks for watching .
Great hunt that makes up for some of those where pickings are slim. Nothing like some gold, silver and a few wheaties to make your day!!👍😎👍
Hi Sandlapper RVers , we had a good season this year finding gold and silver. The next two videos we find more gold. Thanks for watching .
Love the beautiful pink ring absolutely beautiful great day at the beach good job digger
Hi Mary , thank you . Thanks for watching .
That bracket with the numbers on it is a uni-strut 1” conduit strap. It’s used in electrical conduit installations.
Hi Silver Cyborg , thanks for the ID ! Thanks for watching .
Great finds. That gold signet ring has a blood stone (black onyx). I found one like that with a stag. Very cool.
Hi Ecks Marks the Spot , thank you , thanks for watching .
Great finds out there! That one ring is super cool and being so old! We found a massive ring today that has what also appears to have a bloodstone type gem in in. But nowhere as cool as the 1916!
And the other ring you found is nice as well. Great all the way round!
Hi Terri and Scott , thank you . I look forward to seeing the ring you found. Its been fun out there finding the older stuff since the storms . Keep swinging and thanks for watching .
Bravo for filling in your holes so well. 😊
Hi Judy, thank you for watching .
Excellent hunt! Fabulous finds!
Hi Joyce , thank you , and thanks for watching .
Great finds! The rings are awesome still pulling this first gen pull tabs is so cool too. Even a silver quarter too. The beach devastation is quite extensive. Hopefully they can rebuild the beach for summer!
Hi Spicey , they are working on it . They have clean up crews out loading up all the wood that washed in from all the busted walkways . It will take some time but I'm sure things will get back to normal over time . Thanks for watching .
Always a relaxed... enjoyable hunt! It starts to get very exciting when you show up to the beach and it looks completely different.. great stuff!
Hi Austin , its made for some fun detecting . Thanks for watching .
Wow, great finds. That 1916 ring is really nice. Score!!!
Hi flatdaddio , its a beauty . Thanks for watching .
Hope things are better for you in Florida. Careful where you're stepping, don't need to step on any nails or screws.
Hi Sheila , I have been wearing my diving boots lately . Lots of debris on the beach . Thanks for watching .
Awesome! Nice gold and silver! Congratulations!
Hi Tam , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Awesome hunt 👍🤓👍❤️ congrats 🎉 on yr finds. Thanks for sharing the damage on the beach.much love from Michigan
Hi Lisa , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Yay! Gold. I like the intaglio ring, too.
Hi Squirrel , we have two more gold videos on the way . Thanks for watching .
Wow. Incredible my friend. Those tings are beautiful. a lot of damage from the hurricane
Hi Nathaniel , they are beauties . I still can not get on the south end of the beach due to the damage . It will take some time but everything will be repaired down the road . Thanks for watching .
Brian, excellent hunt. Both gold rings are beautiful and that 1916 ring is a fabulous find. The ornate design along with the 1916 date are just fantastic. Congratulations.
Hi Rob , when I got done this morning I stopped at University Av. Saw your truck but didn't have the strength to walk that far down the beach to say hi . lol I hope you guys did well today . Thanks for watching .
@@idigdaytona4478 sorry we missed each other. Getting harder to find silver coins but I did manage six more today. They try again on sunday.
Well done, Brian. Those exposed deeper layers of sand definitely held some nice finds 👍🇦🇺
Hi John , one can only imagine whats out there at the deeper levels . Thanks for watching .
Congratulations on all the sweet finds and not so sweet. I sure hope all the good stuff turns out to be worth a fortune. Always enjoy all the great adventures that I am included in and can't wait till the next.
Hi Patricia , more gold finds on the way . I have been lucky my last few trips out . Thanks for watching .
Ihave an older metal detector....''Relco''....uses 2 batteries.... I used it mostly to find nails on old const. sites , and had 4 gold claims..... wouldnt bother beach combing---finding pennies and beer tabs --wouldnt pay for batteries --let alone my time @ $15.00 AN HR.
Hi Alexander , the pennies and pull tabs are just the things you find in between gold and silver finds . My detector has built-in battery pack that is rechargeable so no need to buy batteries . My Fisher CZ21 uses 4 - 9v batteries . I bought rechargeable batteries for that one too so I don't need to keep buying batteries. Metal detectors have come a long way over the years . Thanks for watching .
This is one fantastic hunt, full of fun!!!!!
Hi Maria and Bruce Beaupre , I wish they were all this good . Thanks for watching .
Wow,. That was Awesome Hunt and Finds. Catching up on some videos :)
Hi James , I think the old ring was my best one of the year. I wish you and the family a Merry Christmas ! Thanks for watching .
Fantastic day! Double gold and old Beach silver coins! Sweet!
Hi 925inder, that was a great day on the beach . I think the old gold ring from 1916 was my best find of the year . Hurricanes can do that ! Thanks for watching .
What a fantastic day!!!!! Congratulations Brian!!!
Hi Merrill , thank you . It was a fun hunt . Thanks for watching .
The US Mint has never melted a penny.
It minted a one CENT piece. Enjoyed the video.
Hi Terry , its true we have cents . I guess the penny is just a hold over term . Thanks for watching .
Wow those rings are so beautiful Enjoyed this so much
Hi Deidre , thank you for watching .
Congrats on finding those two fantastic gold rings. I think the one with the pink stone is much prettier than the other one. However, the date on the other gives that one a more interesting story. Great job. GL&HH.
Hi Mark , I am trying to find out more about the 1916 gold ring . There could be an update in the future. Thanks for watching .
Nice ring finds. You deserve some decent gold finds!
Hi Brian , there are more gold videos on the way . I had a good year on gold this year . Thanks for watching .
Good hunt brother. Nice rings
Hi David , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Hi Brian , did you say 43 wheat ? Aren't they supposed to be made of steel ? Or do I got the dates mixed up ? Oh yeah , the tunnels to the beach reminded me of the late sixties early seventies when I would drive my hot rod 68 Camaro through them and rev it up . With the Thrush glass packs on the car it was ear deafening ! Those were the days !
Hi Dayna , that's what I said . I will have to go and check my wheat cents for it . I miss those old days too. lol Thanks for watching .
Great find on the rings. Got a bit of dangerous glass out of the sand and bits of other crusty metals. Saved a lot of bare feet. 👏🏻
Hi Julie , the old 1916 ring is amazing . Looking forward to summer and the depositors returning. lol Thanks for watching .
@@idigdaytona4478 Very Amazing! Keep up the great work! 👏🏻
Hi Julie , will do !
Nice finds I enjoyed the hunt, catch you on the next one. 🇺🇸
Hi Fred , thank you . More on the way , thanks for watching .
Congrats Brian! I was out a few times this week but didn’t have much luck. Heading for a due south trip next week. Maybe I’ll bring back something good. Take care and keep swinging!
Hi Linda , its hard to get on the beach to the south . I think the only way is a long long walk . I may head that way myself next week . Good luck and thanks for watching .
What a fabulous find with that ring! The destruction on the beach front is quite unbelievable. Should be many good beach detecting days ahead from this storm.
Hi Dianne , I just heard there could be another hurricane in the first part of December. That would be a very late storm. Time will tell . Thanks for watching .
@@idigdaytona4478 I actually found a 14kt wedding band the other day and almost $7 in clad. All of it was way up near the dunes! Amelia Island got a lot of erosion from Ian allowing for Nicole to push the coins across the flat beach.
Hi Dianne , that's awesome ! Congratulations on the gold! Happy hunting !
Hey Brian great hunt my friend. Some coins, some wheaties and big silver congrats. Plus you are back on the jewelry, sweet. Yeah too bad that joker didn't catch you after finding the gold, you would have the last laugh on that. Keep em coming my friend, love them.
Hi Joey , it was a good day out there . More gold finds on the way . Thanks for watching .
Nice hunt brother, shame to see all the destruction, but i'm glad you found some gold! be well & HH!
Hi R Dogg, everything took a beating down there , but it did expose some old beach levels treating us to some much older finds. Thanks for watching .
At37:52 of the vid. You said the wheat cent might be a 1943 COPPER. If it truly is... You're rich. It would be worth at least $100K. And possibly a lot more. So I'd make sure. Really nice finds. Great hunt.
Hi Vinnie , I will have to double check . That would be a fantastic find. Thanks for watching .
Good deal brother breaks my heart to see my ole bch that way daughter should be bringing my nox 600 over to me tomorrow already have a few places to practice in so I can learn machine couple old parks and baseball diamonds
Hi Jay , you will enjoy the Equinox 600. The beach will get repaired and back to normal at some point. Its going to be a lot of work . Thanks for watching .
Beautiful Christmas ring! Good for you!
Hi Elizabeth , thank you . Thanks for watching .
If nobody else said, the bracket is a conduit clamp. It goes in a channel type tube and slides where you need it, then you tighten it up on your conduit. Basically a construction type item.
Hi scorpion0123z , some have said that . I knew someone would know what it was . Thanks for watching .
Very good hunt brian. Congrats on the gold and the old silver coins. I knew that quarter was going to be silver because I've been watching Jimmy crossbones videos and he's been using that big old 18-in coil on his Equinox and all them deep coins coming out have been silver every one of them. Sure hope the beaches can get back to normal real soon for you guys. Take care be safe Brian and you and your family have a fantastic Thanksgiving next week.
Hi Danny , Jimmy has been killing the silver coins down there . A lot of the beach is still closed with no access . Thanks for watching .
What a terrific hunt!
Hi Cricket , thank you . Thanks for watching .
That Dec 25 1916 ring looks like it will be gorgeous when cleaned up. Very unique!!
Hi Matt , the jeweler said if we buff it up it will lose the extra yellow patina . Its a sweet ring. Thanks for watching .
Nice to see you found gold, must admit the storm did lot of damage
Hi Marlene , its bad down there . There are a lot of areas you can't even get on the the beach . Thanks for watching .
Just found your videos, excellent buddy, keep them coming. Best wishes from England.
Hi Paul , thank you . Thanks for watching from England .
Holy smokes! That ring dated 1916 was gorgeous. I love how it had the cameo carved into the stone. Since that hurricane came you have had some fantastic hunts! I hope the goodies continue to flow for quite some time! Loved the video, watched all 41 minutes
Hi Donna , thank you . That ring is a beauty . I found a bronze ship spike this afternoon . Not many coins . I have a gold video showing all the live dig gold finds from this year . It should be out in a few weeks. Thanks for watching .
@@idigdaytona4478 Thank you! Those are my favorite type of videos. Year long wrap ups!
Looks like a ring used for imprinting wax seals.
@@dutchymon I guess you could do that with it . Thanks for watching .
Nice hunt, and great gold finds.
the store evidently did mix up the good stuff and make some available.
Hi Max , thank you . It sure did . More on the way , thanks for watching .
Great finds! It would be amazing if you could track down the history of that 1916 Ring! What stories could it tell. Cheers form Down Under!
Hi Brush it off , I'm working on that . We could have an update in the future . Thanks for watching .
How much was the 1916 ring worth???
I found one time a 20 dollar gold piece. At that time I sold it for 1175.00
Hi Martin , I didn't ask . I don't want to sell it . I will add it to the collection . Thanks for watching .
Hi Martin , that must have been exciting to find a fat gold coin ! Congratulations ! I have found a lot of gold but never a gold coin . Thanks for watching .
Cool intaglio ring!
Hi CoinSilver800 , its a beauty ! Thanks for watching .
A Fabulous day detecting 2 gold rings, awesome ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍
Hi Gary , thank you . Thanks for watching .
First off good finds Second if that’s a 1943 copper penny you hit the jackpot in 1943 there’s supposed to be no copper all steel Pennies so definitely look it over if it is take it to a coin shop not a pawn shop have them look at it like Paul’s coin shop in Ormond Beach or someone you know but once again good videos oh and PS I found a standing liberty quarter and a 1916 Barbara dime on the beach last week was ecstatic
Hi John , I will have to look at my wheat cents for that one . I keep them in a container . Great finds John ! There are some still showing up . I think I found some silver coins today but have not dumped out my finds pouch yet . I did a rare pre-dawn hunt today . It was cold out there this morning. Thanks for watching .
WOW WHAT A RING
Hi Rj , its a beauty . Thanks for watching .
Epic hunt those rings are beautiful!
Hi East Coast Digs , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Silver quarter, merc dime & 2 beautiful rings! I’m headed to Daytona in a week, fingers crossed I do half as well while I’m there!
Hi Diane , I hope you have a fun trip . Maybe I will see you out there . Good luck and thanks for watching .
Nice find on that ring !!!
Hi Sherry , thank you . It is a beautiful ring . Thanks for watching .
Superb ring find!
Hi Everett , its one of the best I have found. Thanks for watching .
Back in the 60’s the best lace to find treasure was off Sebastian inlet after a hurricane as there are loads. Of shipwrecks just off the shore. Everything from emeralds to gold and silver. This might be a perfect time to look there after this hurricane.
Hi Teresa , yes , the 1715 fleet wrecked from Ft Pierce inlet to Sebastian inlet. Surprisingly they didn't get that much beach erosion this time. Not much being found down there after this last storm . There has been a lot of re-nourishment sand added over the years to stop the beach erosion . This last storm removed some sand but from what I have heard it was just the re-nourishment washing out. It is a fun place to metal detect because you just never know what will show up . Thanks for watching .
The 1916 ring is very interesting... And the image on the dark green stone certainly looks like an early Girl Scouts of America emblem (a girl with a slouch field hat). The GSA was founded in 1912 so the timing would be right for that to maybe be a 1916 Christmas gift to some Girl Scout Troop Leader. Maybe this will give you a lead to research further... a very unique find.
Hi Ken , I thought it looked like winged liberty , like on a Mercury dime . I will look into the Girl Scout emblems. Thanks for watching
Pretty work! I see a new machine for you with those 2 rings! I will get one for you my wife loves the rings! Let me know would be happy to have them! You do the time you definitely deserve those! Always appreciate your time you take use along . Keep on swinging! Pretty work!
Hi Wayne , I bought a new Minelab Manticore. Just waiting for Minelab to start shipping them out . Thanks for watching .
Sweeet find love that ring and hope you guys are finding your way back to normal after this last bad storm. Nice job ! So glad you had some luck !
Hi G. Fortin , thank you . The beach repairs will take some time to get all the seawalls back up.
I suspect the sand will wash back in when the weather patterns change in the spring if not sooner. Thanks for watching .
@@idigdaytona4478 Yes I feel so bad for all the damage I have seen on tv, it's terrible , both coasts hit bad. My parents had a place at Vanderbuilt beach until about 10 years back when they came back up north.. their road was a mess like some of what I saw on your footage. Terrible. Glad you are well. Getting freakin' cold on the beaches up here in NH now but I'll get out with my nox' if we get a decent day without wind. GL & HH !
I knew you would be pulling some old goodies off that beach.... Still more out there just waiting 🏴☠️
Hi SBD , I am hearing we could get hit by another hurricane around December 5 . After this cold front moves up and out of here it will form south of Cuba and move up into Florida. It would be a very late storm. We should know more in a week or so . Keeping an eye on the tropics for another few weeks. Thanks for watching .
Yeah that's a late hurricane man 🌀🌀🌀 weather is getting crazier for sure! well if there wasn't enough erosion off the beaches to get to the gold maybe this time we will... Probably end up digging up some dinosaur bones too... 😂.. good luck we'll see you out there
used to detect beaches in Oregon .. very difficult to find old stuff there, but if you could read the beach good stuff could be found... would love to live in an area where the terrain has changed like Florida after the hurricane ... Awesome finds waiting out there.
Hi Bob , the storms really did a number on the beaches here . Anything could show up on a Florida beach . Thanks for watching .
Hello my friend I think you had a great day. Congratulations on the gold rings they are beautiful. Sorry I’m late on my comment I was at the doctors all day. Stay safe be careful and find some more gold.
Hi Steve , it was a great day . More gold finds on the way . I hope you are feeling better . Thanks for watching .
Old coins seeing daylight again, good 👍
Hi Mazzi , yes indeed ! Thanks for watching .
Thks for the hunt
Hi Dennis , you're welcome . Thank you for watching .
Hey, Brian, new subscriber here, thanks for the interesting videos and clean talk, it is so difficult to find. Those rings are awesome
Hi Ellen , I thank you for the subscription. I try to keep it family friendly here. It's amazing the old ring has been out there over 100 years . You just never know what will turn up on the beach. Thanks for watching .
Awesome rings 1916 sweet could be some Spanish coins around keep looking.
Hi beach junkies , thank you . Most of the Spanish silver and gold is found down on the treasure coast south of here . But it still could happen. There were a lot of ship wrecks on Florida's coast. Thanks for watching .
I talked to you about 7 months ago I was detecting and you were out there I'm from st Augustine area I detect all around Florida to get treasure 🪙😊
@@beachjunkies2378 I heard some Spanish silver came out up your way. Happy hunting!
Frickin excellent hunt and video Brian 👍 👍. That was off the charts !! Congrats on the gold rings, silver coins and wheaties. A 1943 copper cent can be worth over a 100k!! I really hope it is. So let us know if It is one.. really loved your video. Now that's treasure hunting (the mic🎤hits the floor ) lol 🙏 Thanks bro and Happy Thanksgiving . Gregg
Hi AuDiver 79 , lol , thank you . I looked for the wheat cent today with no luck. I will keep looking. Happy Thanksgiving to you too. Thanks for watching .
Awesome finds great video enjoyed it . Snowing here in Montreal have to put my gear away early this year. The videos get me through to spring
Hi David , thank you . I just saw where we could be getting another hurricane here in the first part of December . Time will tell . Thanks for watching .
@@idigdaytona4478 maybe blow some warm air up my way.
I would love to wear that 1916 ring! it's gorgeous 🥰
Hi Jeannnie , it is a beauty . Thanks for watching .
Damn good day... congratulations... I love it
Hi David , it sure was . Thank you for watching .
A nice valuable finds today. Silver coins, two gold rings, and a beautiful silver spoon. Enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday. See you on the next!! 😊
Hi Martin , the spoon is stainless , but its a nice one . I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving as well . Thanks for watching .
The bracket is 1/4x20 bolt plus 1/4x20 nut plus mineralac, strange name but that's what it's called, that is used to support 1 inch electrical conduit onto uni-strut mounted on wall for example. It probably came loose from an umbrella/chair home-made attachment or possibly cooler axle support.
Hi Sam , thank you . Thanks for watching .
Really nice finds Good luck
Hi John , thank you . More on the way , thanks for watching .
