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 Legend (This Coil...  

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!

    I’m glad a nice guy got to find some gold. Congrats

  • @mrjackson2358

  • @mass4552
    It was a fine day for detecting. The machine worked great for you. Nice finds.

    Excellent hunt, Austin! Well done! I dug a 10k girls HS class ring from 1924 last week. 100 years old! Happy hunting!

    Great find Austin!! Very happy for you. Jordan

    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.

    You ight consider using a mesh finds bag for water hunting. Lorraine at RTG, Reilly's Treasured Gold in Pompano Beach stocks a custom made mesh bag, used by south florida pro's who make a living at this. I found it to be far more durable than the Kellyco mesh bag. BTW, Lorraine is a grest source of information about south florida treasure hunting going back decades. If you were writing a book on the subject, she would be the first one you'd want to consult. Her uncle was Kevin Reilly, one of South Florida's more legendary beach hunters from the 1970s to 2009. He founded RTG decades ago. She stocks his book on hunting most florida beaches from the Treasure coast on down to key biscayne. She has other treasure hunting volumes too. Ask her to show you photos from her friends and customers. Some amazing stuff never posted on the interweb. Well worth a visit and a schmooze even if you don't need any new kit presently. Oh...she has great deals for used detectors on consignment. Just sayin' because I been buyiing my gear there and its a lot more interesting than clicking on amazon.

    Optimism pays off, so does tenacity. Nice finds brother. 🤙
  • 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. 🙂👍
  • @vix1960
    Nice finds! Love the pendant of course. 😁
  • Congrats on that gold bonanza! Two really nice pieces of gold. If I remember you got a gold anchor years ago also so seems to be a nautical trend with you. Can't wait to try my elite when it comes next week.
  • Congrats on joining the gold chain club. Minelabs beginning with the equinox are deadly on fine gold chains. Try a Reilly Treasured Gold mesh pouch for water hunts.
  • 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,
  • @Mike-kh7lb
    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.
  • @BigMamaCat
    You ended up with a nice haul. Congrats on the gold. So good. Now that the weather is warm and more people are outdoors, your treasure tally might ramp up a bit. 🙂 Good on you, Austin.
  • @Sonnylynn22
    Waaaaaay to go Austin! You found gold!! Whoop whoop!🎉
