    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 22 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:

    From my own experiences, rocky beaches do not necessarily lead to good finds. This is especially true if the rocks are spread apart instead of gathered around to form a low energy zone where there's still sand left. Cuts are also never ever guaranteed to have anything. More often than not I've found cuts to be lack luster. However, cuts that form in areas where historically there has been finds, generally do better than cuts where nothing was found in normal beach conditions.
    Completely blasted beaches also tend to have very little in finds. if it's low sand and scattered rocks, they tend to only have can slaw and light materials. However this can change when the beach starts replenishing itself. A little bit of sand is needed for heavier stuff to stick around, especially if there's a "U" shaped pile of rocks slowing down wave power.
    Beaches where something big and heavy has obstructed the surf tend to produce interesting results. A large boulder of a rock showed up on a beach I go to, and generally I find something interesting when I check it out. You can tell the rock is obstructing and slowing down alot of wave power cause there's a gathering of shells and other debris in the area in front of the rock. Light material sure, but rings and silver coins have shown up directly in front of that rock due to it creating a lower wave power area. This gives heavier stuff a chance to stick around instead of getting washed back out by the powerful waves. This area of the beach also historically has only produced the occasional quarter and alot of can slaw, but never really anything like rings or silver coins until the rock showed up!
    Changes on the beach done by human hands like bulldozed sand also has a chance of creating low wave power areas, and thus depositing alot of stuff. But the beach corrects these changes very rapidly, so if you see construction work where they're digging out pilings or ripping up the sand, it's time to check it out before it's too late.
    The usual coin line and green coin/ heavy sinker rules are also good rules to follow too.
