How did I miss this video Merrill? I loved this one, you got two of the greatest hunters on this planet with you, and they're coming up with finds of a lifetime. Merrill, your five mercury dimes were awesome too. Thanks, Merrill, I love the way you jump from one find to another as you move quickly on.
My SIMPLEX and SNIPER COIL... I CAN'T go back to the OTHER coils BTW... I'm at almost 4oz of SILVER this year and didn't detect for a whole month because of snow and work.... SIMPLEX and SNIPER COIL IS SIMPLY AMAIZING... The SNIPER COIL IS the key... Slow and SEPARATION is EVERYTHING!!!
Well, Phil wasn't running the machine in sensitivity 1 as he said, he was running it at 23 sensitivity... Recovery speed, however, was at 1, and the FE & F2 were at 9 for the first test, and 1 at the second test. Oh, and those notched round things you find at the beach: parasol sliders.
Now that you have a properly operating repaired Equinox it’s probably going to feel like a whole new machine. I think you’re right. Stay with the Minelab coils. Also when I started wearing my Bluetooth Minelab headphone with my 800 that was when I leveled up! Good video as always. Phil definitely misspoke about the sensitivity setting.
Also at 33:21 it’s a hard times token. Listed as W-NY-400-10a; Low-114; HT-249. John H.Dayton’s Union Steam Washing Establishment which was located on 17th street near 5th. 1837 date.
the token with the 'column' is a one fare token to the International Railway Co. in Niagara Falls. One side reads International Railway Co. while the other reads Good For One Fare.
Well done , really good stuff .Congats on the 14k , well deserved . 23:44 is umbrella slider (found loads here in the UK) , 34:50 looks to me a wheel weight (used to balance the wheels of a car) .Than you for the videos .
Lol. 😀. I can help with an identification here @23:40 that cog wheel looking thing is off a parasol / umbrella. 😀. It is what the spokes clip into and the hole in the middle is for location to allow the whole mechanism to slide up and down the main round shaft to open or close the parasol. 🙂.
I still wish you three guys would colaborate on a book of tips and settings for the Equinox 600/800. I'm certain it';d be a best seller in the MD community. Really enjoyed this one, as usual. Thanks fo sharing.
Recovery Speed!!!! Apologize everyone , that was a test I did on our group text, I accidentally was calling recovery speed .. sensitivity…. Merrill , go back and read the text after the video.!!!!! It’s a recovery speed of 1.
Jon is correct. It appears that Phil misspoke and said Sensitivity instead of Recovery. What I’m interested in is that when he turned down the Iron Bias down to 0, he lost the coin. That seems backwards to me. I only hunt with an Iron Bias of 0 with the idea that although I may dig a fair amount of iron, I’ll also dig any non-ferrous signals next to the iron.
BTW just curb hunting this year MOSTLY... EVERYTHING is SURFACE silver wise... Halves, Qs and dimes... EVERYTHING IS SURFACE... 2 SITTING LIBERTIES AS WELL
FE and F2 do not run together at the same time. You are either using FE or F2. Also the "sensitivity" he kept saying was at 1 was actually the "Recovery Speed". He didn't get the signal from the 10" wheat cent because there was iron nearby. You need to set the Recovery Speed to at least 3 or 4 to get enough separation on a target like that with iron nearby.
Every time you showed settings you showed both FE and F2 settings. Minelabe manual says "The Iron Bias FE and Iron Bias F2 settings profiles are independent. When Iron Bias FE is selected, the Iron Bias F2 setting has no effect, and vice versa. So were they switching between FE and F2? Thanks for the video I always love learning something over just watching digs like most videos. My favorite Vid of your which got me hooked was the Equinox ID Bible.
I've never been as low as 1 ,but I almost always turn sensitivity down. My beaches are full of iron. Using high sensitivity is like driving in fog with full beam, more light, but less visibility. I find a lot of chains,id between 1 and 4.
What a hunt! Merrill that tiny coin that looks trime size is a street car token I believe. Early 1900s to 1930s. You guys are the best! Keep it up fellas!
this is Big Al silver the metal detecting guy Congratulations on your silver spill Merle and thanks for the information on the equinox I am going to apply those same numbers on my new equinox thanks
Phil’s settings are very interesting I had to watch it a couple times to see what he had done. He said in the beginning of his segment he had sensitivity on 23 and he never actually changed sensitivity he was changing recovery speed and calling it sensitivity then moving his iron bias. Why taking both fe and f to 9 with recovery on 1 it did what it did has he very intrigued and will play with some targets to see what mine does.
When he said he adjusted sensitivity to 1- he also said swing speed. The sun was glaring on his screen, but I think he was adjusting the recovery speed not the sensitivity. Can you/he confirm?
Very interesting on settings, my buddy pulled a fugio out of a spot I pulled a KG2, I missed the spill coin with the 600 and he got it with the 800, guess there is a difference between the machines 🤔 I even had him put coin back in the hole, and my machine didn't acknowledged it was there ☹️ Guess we both got some learning to do 😄 HH Merrill, congrats on your spill and beautiful complete shoe buckle 😍
Hey that's one of those old rare Little Caesar tokens from the days of yar, ah! 1790, it's a little expired, oh well, you did knock it clean out of the park. Congrads, and you get an at ah boy. I love coinage, I go nuts over old coins. I have to say though, the tips are the find of the day. A good day for old buttons, old buttons are cool, it was cool to see all of those sexy Merc Dimes on the rise guys. Man! you guys really kick butt!, the greatest Dream Team of all time. I bet the guy who drop all those merc is probably rolling over in his grave and saying, oh no my mercs! I drop my babies. You guys are the new Untouchables, you killed it! I just can't say enough on the finds, one of the more very, very I N T E R E S T I N G episodes. You guys can start your own antique coin museum just from this one outing, you guys are freaking me out!!! I know it's a lot to read and I typed way too much, but I do live near the Windy City, too much to say......It's been great Merrill, got my dose of sanity, Metal Detect on! Signed, Greg the Egg.
Hi big guy! Good video as always. I hope you don't mind if I ask you an Apex question. What would you think about getting the newer Raider coil for it? And are military artifacts from the Creek Indian wars time(around 1815 or so)be worth pursuing? Thanks man! I have to get ready for the weather. It's going to be ugly and cold tomorrow. They are even calling for SNOW tomorrow. Steve
Ground BALANCE is EVERYTHING on my SIMPLEX. I thought higher ground BALANCE meant DEEPER. It's NOT... I've found 1ft pennies at a ground BALANCE at 45-55... It's so weird... TRUST THE NUMBERS THAT THE GROUND GIVES YOU IS MY ONLY ADVICE
He said his sensitivity was 1 and then he said “still” 23. Was it his recovery that was on 1. I understand both iron bias were all the way up and then all the way down but I’m not sure of what his sens was in the beginning.
?? here as he had it in field 2 sensitivity at 23 his recovery was 5 but as to iron FE/F2 in 3 you can only use one or the other they don't work together you only use one at a time in the settings and in his vid he keeps saying sensitivity at 1 it was recovery at 1 this will confuse a lot new people :)
He was saying sensitivity but I noticed he was actually in recovery speed. So when he said sensitivity at 1 he actually meant to say recovery speed at 1. This may have been noted already but I'm just saying.
Why are jeff diggin in your hole ?. .soo inoying 😅😅...time for glasses ?.. .hes a good man but... .....anyways great funn day u had tnx for sharing.. Ps the id your asked for is from a parasol.. and a bit old one.. mid 1800 to 1930 about.. Id correction at food time its a knee buckle 1700 ich.. 🙂👍
at least when Mr merril takes the class on a field trip wesley snipes,sean connery,and the hand of god behave and do not fight or do any other merril foolery !!
@Metal Detecting NYC always! Your one of the best channels out their your thoughts and comedy are hilarious and tell berry i left a hole open just for him Lmmfao
Merrill the object you asked about was umbrella slide great finds all around

Merrill, your five mercury dimes were awesome too. Thanks, Merrill, I love the way you jump from one find to another as you move quickly on.
Good finds…good friends. Looks like a nice day. I hope things are looking up for you all around. It makes me happy to watch .

Glad the confusion was explained about recovery speed and sensitivity. Great hunt!
Love all your videos. You have an awesome group you go out with. Maybe I’ll see you out in the island somewhere one day
Well done , really good stuff .Congats on the 14k , well deserved . 23:44 is umbrella slider (found loads here in the UK) , 34:50 looks to me a wheel weight (used to balance the wheels of a car) .Than you for the videos .

Recovery Speed!!!!
Apologize everyone , that was a test I did on our group text, I accidentally was calling recovery speed .. sensitivity….
Merrill , go back and read the text after the video.!!!!! It’s a recovery speed of 1.
Simple mix-up. Noticed it right away though. I love the 800 to death!
Were you in Fe or F2?
Sounds great 👍, the “perfect scoop “, let me think about it. Thanks 🙏, to be continued.
Jon is correct. It appears that Phil misspoke and said Sensitivity instead of Recovery. What I’m interested in is that when he turned down the Iron Bias down to 0, he lost the coin. That seems backwards to me. I only hunt with an Iron Bias of 0 with the idea that although I may dig a fair amount of iron, I’ll also dig any non-ferrous signals next to the iron.
Enjoyed watching great finds
The item that you mentioned you find at the beach, I believe would be a parasol slide
It is.. and a bit old one.. late 1800 to 1920
BTW just curb hunting this year MOSTLY... EVERYTHING is SURFACE silver wise... Halves, Qs and dimes... EVERYTHING IS SURFACE... 2 SITTING LIBERTIES AS WELL

Nice Job Merrill 4 mercury dimes in on hole nicely done, really enjoyed the video keep them coming. 🇺🇸
This vid was great fun and informative. Loved how you couldn’t wait to see your finds , you looked like a kid grabbing for toys . Thank M
Congrats on the 14k subs
Great to see you all enjoying the day.
Keeping digging
Keep learning
" This is probably my last signal..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Every time you showed settings you showed both FE and F2 settings. Minelabe manual says "The Iron Bias FE and Iron Bias F2 settings profiles are independent.

something over just watching digs like most videos. My favorite Vid of your which got me hooked was the Equinox ID Bible.
[• oh wow, yay! You’re using the metal detector that I just bought! so looking forward to this one!•]
Great finds guys! I think when Phil was explaining he meant to say recovery speed rather then sensitivity
Nice work boys!!!!!
That thing you find at the beach I think is related to an umbrella.
I've never been as low as 1 ,but I almost always turn sensitivity down. My beaches are full of iron. Using high sensitivity is like driving in fog with full beam, more light, but less visibility. I find a lot of chains,id between 1 and 4.
What a hunt! Merrill that tiny coin that looks trime size is a street car token I believe. Early 1900s to 1930s. You guys are the best! Keep it up fellas!
23:46 it’s a parasol runner.
Looked like a great time. Thar's what it's all about, good friends, good fun.............
this is Big Al silver the metal detecting guy Congratulations on your silver spill Merle and thanks for the information on the equinox I am going to apply those same numbers on my new equinox thanks
That really is a nice 1790
That was awesome, some great finds for all. I will try both Jeff and Phil’s settings. I appreciate you guys sharing. Very cool video!
nice find
Yep I do 3 to 5 seconds on my swings with the CTX and same with the Nox800
Yes that was an EPIC hunt I am so Amazed by the finds great
Phil’s settings are very interesting I had to watch it a couple times to see what he had done. He said in the beginning of his segment he had sensitivity on 23 and he never actually changed sensitivity he was changing recovery speed and calling it sensitivity then moving his iron bias.

You are correct 👍🦀
Great finds you guys had good hunt and enjoyed your video and good Luck.
Great video
Looking great Merr

Clad quarter, welcome to my world.
Great hunt
Dang. Those sandwiches do look amazing!!

must be something wrong with my nox. The last two times I have been to the beach I have found a bottle cap.
Hi big guy! Good video as always. I hope you don't mind if I ask you an Apex question.

One of your Best Vids👍
and some of those early merc dimes can be worth silly money
Que chido vídeo… Omg 😱 it is a nice video good job
Man, I might have to stick with the 600.
You have to get Phil to make a chart for us
Ground BALANCE is EVERYTHING on my SIMPLEX. I thought higher ground BALANCE meant DEEPER. It's NOT... I've found 1ft pennies at a ground BALANCE at 45-55... It's so weird... TRUST THE NUMBERS THAT THE GROUND GIVES YOU IS MY ONLY ADVICE
He said his sensitivity was 1 and then he said “still” 23. Was it his recovery that was on 1. I understand both iron bias were all the way up and then all the way down but I’m not sure of what his sens was in the beginning.
He had sensitivity on 23 the recovery speed was one he was fumbling words.
I think the little coin is an international railway token
Nobody mentioned Phil's find of what he called a half cent, it was a silver capped bust half dollar. 1832.....lol
💥genios 👌🏻👌🏻
So u have the 800 now😁
?? here as he had it in field 2 sensitivity at 23 his recovery was 5 but as to iron FE/F2 in 3 you can only use one or the other they don't work together you only use one at a time in the settings and in his vid he keeps saying sensitivity at 1 it was recovery at 1 this will confuse a lot new people :)
He was saying sensitivity but I noticed he was actually in recovery speed. So when he said sensitivity at 1 he actually meant to say recovery speed at 1. This may have been noted already but I'm just saying.
In my full 3 YEARS HUNTING... Start of 4th year here... I've ONLY had 1 SILVER spill... A merk and war nickels spill... That's it
Merrill 👍🏽👌🍺
❤❤❤
Recovery 1.not sensitivity
And the hard times token.1837 date is your best clue in the future
Never use ground tracking it will mask targets
Why are jeff diggin in your hole ?. .soo inoying 😅😅...time for glasses ?.. .hes a good man but... .....anyways great funn day u had tnx for sharing..
Ps the id your asked for is from a parasol.. and a bit old one.. mid 1800 to 1930 about..
Id correction at food time its a knee buckle 1700 ich.. 🙂👍
He is mistakingly saying sensitivity when he means recovery speed
Looked like a knee buckle
Jesus..ancient his tory
at least when Mr merril takes the class on a field trip wesley snipes,sean connery,and the hand of god behave and do not fight or do any other merril foolery !!
Knee buckle
How many years till you begin finding crypto?
Are you hip with Q? YES or no.... SIMPLY self thinker and don't watch ANY MSM I 🙏💯🙏💪
Q @Myril.... Are you woke sir? Geo politically and other sir!? I don't want your channel targeted... So simply answer yes or no PLEASE....
Lol one misspoken detail and your a noob.... oh well awesome hunt
Thanks for checking it out
@Metal Detecting NYC always! Your one of the best channels out their your thoughts and comedy are hilarious and tell berry i left a hole open just for him Lmmfao
Sorry....I don't watch NOX 800 videos!!! Catch ya' next time you swing the Simplex!!! 🙄
