They told me I'd find NOTHING! (Metal Detecting Showgrounds with the Nokta Legend)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 вер 2024
- I had a relaxing afternoon metal detecting some showgrounds for my first ever land-based hunt with the Nokta Legend metal detector. Some event operators had already detected the grounds on their way out and decided to tell me this as they left, but surely they've left something nice for me...

🇦🇺 ABOUT ME: 🇦🇺
Hi, I’m Mish and I’m a metal detectorist, treasure hunter and underwater diving enthusiast from the southern coastline of Australia! My UA-cam channel covers beach, land and underwater metal detecting with occasional camping and diving adventures. I like to cleanup the environment as I go and always remove trash while looking for treasures.
I’m also on Instagram and Facebook: @dirtfishmish
G'day Mish, They should know better, no one gets everything, Ive done several patches by gridding from multiple directions over and over, and still manage to find good targets, some that almost scream out, Here I am! and I wonder how could I possibly have missed them, I recently hit an event site, my first one, thinking i might find some petrol money, super hard ground, having to use a screwdriver to break open the soil, and barely enough grass to hide an ant under, no goldies or any other decimals, but like you i got a florin and also a com penny, so goldies or not, im going back, And the older gentleman that stopped to talk to you about his experience's, its worthwhile listening, sometimes they have some good information that can lead you to a great hunting ground. you never know!... have a great weekend Mish, now go get your feet wet! Cheers!
Good hunt! The washers with the sharp edges are possibly the cut out portion when using a hole saw on sheet metal. Whenever someone hits me with the nothing left thing I just remember my favorite saying- NOBODY gets it all! And I often am the nobody because return trips almost always produce more finds.
Thanks Greg, that makes a lot of sense given that they were found right next to a structure. There’s always something left to find. Be it silvers, or construction waste 😂 Cheers!!
You have it, they look like rubbish left over from a steel frame that has had holes put in for power or plumbing...
Thank you for the fun show and outing. Truer words were never spoken,,,it is never really hunted out, I have pounded my yard with a 800 nox found 169 coins and said thats it there must be none left, then I changed my settings and....Ta DA! more coins! at 175 now and counting! cheers
Hey, Mish! I just wanted to let you know I did NOT get all stressed out when I saw the knife blade sticking up out of the bag as you squatted down, and then bent over forward with the sticky-stabbey part pointed at your stomach....nope. I did not get tense at all.
I'm going to assume you survived and congratulate you on your Florin! Once again you find something in places others have cleaned, scoured, and scrubbed. I've heard you explain so many times in your videos about why you chose that particular place to hunt and what you expect to find, and those intros really help set the scenery, so to speak. I love that you took this one as a personal challenge and showed what experience, the right equipment and most importantly, the right attitude can accomplish. Well done, Mish!
As always, friend, I'm looking forward to your next adventure! Take care, be safe, and watch those knife blades! Later!
Alive and well my friend, the knife bent away from me whenever I crouched. 😊 I wish I’d had more scenery to share here but not to worry, I’m on the road again soon to share more surroundings. 😁 Cheers mate!!
1953 was a great year. I was born. The year after my parents were married and Elizabeth 2 was corinated. She has now passed. I'm not a monicist however suddenly I feel old. Having said that, it needs to be remembered that 1 & 2 cent pieces are part of our history just like pre decimal coins and need to be put into that category. They don't make them any more. Still love to find them even if they tend to get you a chase, the damn things. Threepences tend to give you a chase also. Great video. Cheers John
Hi Mish you showed them nice finds Mish cheers thanks for the video. The view is great
Great hunt as always nice couple of silvers and no sinkers again good luck phil
I know the florin is your favorite coin but the rams head schilling is my favorite Aussie coin. Good hunt.
Fantastic Dig Mish! You sure showed him, hahaha.. Makes you more determined to find the goods and you sure did.. Love the Florin and Shilling.. More than enough coffee money! Whoop 💜💜
Great video! Cool finds! My favorite find is Mish on a (Hawaii) Friday morning! Take care and God bless, Mish! ❤
Showing your skills, pulling silver after the others!
The Legend certainly is showing it’s value.
Thank you! Ooh man, the Legend is just warming up on the silver now that I’m working it out, I’m just about to sit down an edit a beach vid… stay tuned. 😁
For lawn mower coins I straighten them out with a hammer. I love that you got the Legend as my brother just bought one himself and seeing different targets gives him an idea of what to expect under the coil at those numbers even though we are in the U.S.
Great hunt Mich - No spot is ever hunted out. Better keep the Lesche away from those silvers.
Hey Mish. The 6 inch coil is my go-to for those trashy areas. It’s a little ripper! Also, if you want to check a goldie vs bottle cap then up the BC filter in one mode (I use field) and leave it low in your preferred mode (park). Then all you need to do is profile switch between them on a 41-43 signal. Works great for me every time! Big thumbs up from Tassie.
Thanks Blake, after that run I'd definitely use the 6 in the first few spots, but stick with the 11 for the last bit. That's a very clever idea with the filter -- you're a thinker!! I tend to dig the bottle caps anyway, because I will actually geek out over a decent condition historical cap. 😂 Cheers mate.
You a true Detectorist through and through!
Great finds! Glad you proved them wrong!😊😊
Well done mate. I once had a bloke tell me it was no use detecting an area because it was flogged and it was flogged by him. I may as well go home instead of wasting my time. I was digging a coin spill at the time and a toy car was close by. I reckon I know what had been flogged and by whom.
Glad you got a token but we might be able to knock the trainer wheels off that and get a better one very soon.
Congrats on the silvers in the detected ground ( I’ll get over it soon too🤣)
Catch you soon 👍😁
Great hunt. As a Legend user, I appreciate the extra info about the VDIs. FYI: if you change the Bluetooth setting to 2, the beeps will be heard both in your headphones & the external speaker. Great option for those of use who film for UA-cam. Cheers.
Hi Ecks, thanks for the comment. I know about the Bluetooth setting however it’s my decision to keep it on 1; despite the UA-cam presence I am quite introverted in person and I am not fond of attracting attention with the detector noise, also there’s around a 5ms lag between the headset and speaker which drives me nuts. 😂 When I’m out in the wild you’re more likely to hear it on an external speaker. Cheers. 😊
This reminded me of detecting a school field with a friend (with the school's permission, of course). The school was 125 years old and the front paddock was where they had their annual fete and calf club every year. We found heaps of coins, old and new, including an 1866 penny!
What a fun adventure!! Congratulations on the penny, that's an amazing find. :)
Always so informative Mish. Great job.
Hi Mish. It looked like you had a good day, for detecting someplace where all the coins had been found. I was wondering if a showground was the same as the places we have over here for county fairs? There are places for people to camp, barns for livestock, and horses, and lots of parking areas for vehicles. Take care, John
G’day John, yes this type of ground is very similar to that of a county fair. I live in a regional location and thus agricultural shows are not uncommon here. No camping at most venues though unfortunately, that would be fun! Cheers 😁
Great dig Mish, I think the legend is growing on you!
Cheers .
I think so too! The D2 is still my preferred bit of kit for land but I would not be upset at all if I had to take the Legend out instead, those silvers were super clean and clear signals. I think I’ll run over that area again in a low mono frequency and see if I can sniff out some more. 😁
There’s so much I liked about this video - the way you responded to the patronising guys that said ‘you’d find nothing’ (by finding some big silvers), the humour re the token 🤣, and the language - Im sure you said something like ‘let’s keep truckin’ … Anyway very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for all the great content you make - you are certainly one of my favourites 😊🙌🌸
What no sinkers! 😂 well done Mish finding the silvers 👍😊 thanks heaps for the videos
I have once again brought shame upon my community with a lack of sinkers. 😂 cheers mate, you’re most welcome!
@@DirtFishMish haha 😂 maybe next time
Love the new position. Little jumpy but easy to see target IDs. Enjoy and good luck.
Thanks for letting me know, I’ll work on stabilising it somehow 😄 cheers!
When someone says "Find anything?" Always reply "Nah, just junk" lol I have also found ring pulls with things printed on the underside of the tab. Nice work finding all the coins after that guy said you wouldn't find anything esp the pre-dec silvers
My go-to answer is “well, I won’t be retiring anytime soon!” 😂
Those silvers made my day, and were a lovely reward for persevering even though all the surface spendies were pretty much gone. Cheers 😊
Veoma lepi nalazi,dobro traganje i veoma zanimljivo,velikimpozdrav🤝🤠
Thanks for the video Mish. Nice silvers from a place that has been hunted out. The camera worked well.
here in the us the mid to high 40 id's could be a copper penny to a rosie dime or even a silver ring.
I've gotten used to listening to the tones and being able to hear the difference between can slaw and coins.
Hola amiga, te felicito por tu vídeo y por tus buenos hallazgos en ese hermoso lugar saludos desde Chile 👏🇨🇱🤝👍⛏️🙋♂️
Thank you Talca!
Haha people can be so sure of themselves. Nice finds 🎉
The boastful tone they used lit a fuse, I swear. I wish I’d had the camera rolling. 😂 Cheers Sean!
@@DirtFishMish that would also just give me more motivation
Mish @6:38 prolly just the off cut from a 20mm hole saw maybe for gas or electric conduit
Yep. Hole saw slug. Good video!
The florin whisperer... Another fun hunt!
hehe.. thank you… keep this comment in mind for the next beach hunt assuming the footage worked out 😂😉
Coffee money Cheers never say you can't find anything you are awesome keep up the good work
Nice to be on the silver. Best wishes from Lancashire, England.
Good job on finding the silvers and cleaning up the area. There is always more to find. Cool how you included the older guy. They are a great source of knowledge. Luke would have got three more permissions haha.
😂 I don’t doubt that Luke would’ve done so, he’s a smooth talker that one! Thanks Bruce. 😊
Haha florin at beach florin in park 🎉those earrings together definately a are find great video 👌
Think out of the box, work real hard and you can find the things others miss. Great job! 👍
Yes! Thank you!
Nice hunt..well done
Nice finds for first land outing with the NML, get yourself the 6" concentric cool and you will love it! It is so much lighter than the stock 11" beast.
Just the NL these days, Jerry - Makro has been dropped from the name! I’ve got the Pro-Pack, so have the 6” coil as well. Pair that with the 9” coil on my Deus II (and the 15x12” if I drag out the Equinox) and I’ve covered a bunch of bases.
Happy hunting mate 😁
Good Job Mate the Legend is working good to
Hi Mish, nice video ‼️best regards from the Netherlands 👋🍀
Nice find! Camera gadget is fine. Gives another look and I’m sure it is more comfortable. Keep up the great work. Cheers! Where were the sinkers?
Sinker drought!! I’ll have to go back to the beach to atone for it. 😂 cheers for the feedback Mike, yes it is much more comfortable too.
Hmmm... Where you were finding those 20c coins might have been in an old Arcade areas we use to frequent as kids at Showgrounds. Were they all fairly close?
Those tent rings make some great sounds, usually it's the same indication as our $1 and $2 here, cheeky little buggers...
Somehow I always enjoy the “chats”. Cheers!
Awesome finds! Man, don't stab yourself with the knife sticking outta yer pouch eh! That Legend is great! There is ALWAYS something left to find!! Cheers!
Nice Park hunt with the Legend Mish!!!
What settings were you using?
Your new camera mount does a great job!!! Not too shaky at all.
Hi mish, nice toe ring someone might find one day. I love your channel so keep up the good work.
The ocean actually gave me that one some time ago, so it’s already had quite a journey! Cheers mate.
Nice work! I don't just love watching you metal detect, I also love to see the foliage that you show us. So pretty!
Thank you for the feedback, Ellen! I like to capture those little moments such as tiny flowers, interesting bugs and the like - it’s like beachcombing, you never know what’ll catch your eye on the day. Cheers. 😊
Well done Mish. I'd be interested in that necklace camera you mentioned...I do get tired of the chest mount go pro
Nice one Mish
Coffee money and silver, not to mention jewelry, is not a bad day. PS: I ordered my 900 yesterday. Now I shouldn't have to worry about getting it wet.
Two Silvers , coffee money and earrings....well done Mish!
Great video Mish. Just goes to show an area is never truly hunted out. Cheers Dino 😊
Those funny washer's are made by someone using a Hole saw on sheet metal possibly for putting conduit into a shed or something like that i'm starting to like your new detector😊
Looks like Legend is a solid performer, I love my Deus 2 though. Cheers Jon.
I agree. D2 still my go-to for land however now that I know how cleanly the deep silver can ping, I wouldn’t be upset if I had to take the Legend out instead. I think the 6” coil will be advantageous in some spots where my D2’s 9” coil might struggle due to trash density. A future vid I’m sure, cheers 😁
Nice going.... Yep, never believe anyone until you know for yourself
Hi Mish! I know you are taking a break at the moment. I am enjoying some of your older videos today. Hope you are doing well!
This comment made me smile today! Thank you. I have been out and about, and the camera has been on a few times, so I may say a little hello sometime soon. Cheers :)
Always a good hunt when a Florin comes out, the Legend did well
I can’t believe that both the first land and sand hunts with it pulled Florins, that’s such a good omen for the machine. I definitely wasn’t going to miss those silver signals in the soil either! Cheers Brett.
Hello Mish, always enjoy your hunts. Can I just give you a health and safety tip? The next time you find a knife, please put it blade down in your pouch. A fall could end badly. Take care, see you next hunt. Justin in cold cold England.
G’day Justin, it was blade down originally but it actually went through the pouch and got my leg, hence it got turned around.. so ultimately it was the safer of the two options in this scenario. 😉 Cheers!
Just bought a Legend! Hitting the beach next week!
Yessss Dave, nice one mate! Let me know how you go.
I may be asking a bit, but if i ever buy another detector it will be equipped with a whipper snipper and a digging arm like a wee backhoe. If you ever see one Michelle can you tell me about it? Barefoot in the park, I see.
No sinkers... Silver works! It's heavy too. A hammer and anvil will fix up that 20 cent piece... ⚒️👍 And it's not a knife... It's a digging tool! I use them all the time! 😉
Nice Florin Mish..not your usual 47 either..
Try not to damage it next time!😂
I’m pleased to report that the coin did not suffer any damage from my scuff, it was just the dirt that’d been removed. 😁 Cheers mate!
Nice silver finds! Did you find your toe ring? 😊
hehe yes, the ocean parted with that one! 😊 thank you.
Legend rules ..🎉
U found a lot of coins in that hunt mish 👍
Camera is perfect.
I think we have the same knives here in the southern US. Must be made in China.
Love the laugh! Keep sweeping!
Mish, would you also be kind enough to say how many bars down and what is the approximate depth
Loving the Legend Vids
G’day Rick, sorry I do try to occasionally call out bits of info like that, to be honest I don’t actually rely on the depth indicator often as I’m listening more to the size and strength of the signal to make my assumptions. The depth indicator is generally only accurate on a coin-sized target, a large deep can can read shallow due to the intensity of the signal and a tiny shallow target may actually show as if it is at depth. I will try to point out what the screen is saying a little more in future vs my own thoughts on what it means. Cheers 😊
Great hunt Mish. Just tell them that you always heard never hunted out. Continue the good work on the videos. Good luck.
Scratching is easy. I also scratched one 1930s coin myself. Nothing rare or valuable, but sad when in Finland at that time beautiful coins were made from aluminum bronze.
hello Mish. Bit risky to notch too much. Well if it is trashy it might help but you will loose small gold items.
Fantastic few hours detecting. And with the finds we’ll through in a steak knife.,
You have to love it when the Government agency that collects your hard earned money, spends that money celebrating themselves. It is always an enjoyable time watching your videos Mish.
hah, ironic isn't it! Cheers mate, good to see you in the comments. :)
@@DirtFishMish i should comment more… but I am always watching, would not miss it!
✅️👍
❤️
how ofteren do you get a reading off the ring on your little toe...........lol show grounds are allways good hunting grounds when we were kids.
Are they any poisonous/venomous bugs or reptiles to be on the lookout for?
There’ll be snakes about in the scrubby parts, and some of the ants in the area can give a painful bite. Spiders are not so prevalent out in the open on a hot day. Most critters will try to avoid us… except for some of the ant varieties… they’re ferocious. 😂
@@DirtFishMish That’s good. And I can’t believe all you need to dig with is that little trowel! Sweet!
@@jeffheld3971 my upright digger would be more ideal here however I don’t like taking it into high-traffic public areas 😊
@@DirtFishMish why? My poke someone by accident?
I've never had or heard of anyone rejection money because of the condition before and if they did I'd put up a stink.
Next time can you take the headphones off or make it come out through the speakers on the detector I’m not sure if it has a External speaker on the legend
Yes they do have an external speaker, and can broadcast simultaneously to both (but the micro delay to the headset makes it impractical to have both on). These days I typically let folks have a little listen to the headset where I can before digging, I personally choose not to run the speaker in built-up areas as I’m self-conscious about it. Cheers 😊
Hey Mish currently living at showground did my 1st practice over the back.
No goodies yet.
Do you get permission to do it or being public ground don't need to ?
In this particular case it is a public ground maintained by a local council, a council worker could reasonably request me to stop if I were causing issues however generally speaking, they see me removing trash and leaving the place as neat (if not neater!) than I found it. Often they just want to know if I’m having any luck. 😂 Respectful conversations are key. 😊 happy hunting and try to think of the spots where people would spend cash, or perhaps sit down to eat and play!
@@DirtFishMish thanks Mish
Do u have a personal video on starting out with a nox 800 ?
@@thetreasurehuntingboomer not an introduction video specifically, all of my oldest content was using a Nox 600 though and I’d only owned it around 6mths or so when the videos started. 😊
Great show keep going because earth do shift happy treasure seeking 😍👍🏻
Love my legend so far, great finds, check out Liam Dyson for great tips, i tried field mode M2 on my last outing in dirt,tone break at 8 in first segment, 6 tone, recovery at 4 or5 depending on how deep you want to go, lower the deeper, but u gotta slow down, 6 inch coil kicks butt and pinpointing is excellent
I’ll check him out sometime, Harold! I personally prefer modes targeted at high conductive targets, simply because I personally value silver as well as old copper coins above the low conductors (yes, even gold! 😊). I’ve been running the multi-wet mode most of the time on the beach though simply because it seems to work much better on my sands, more tweaking to do there. 6 tone is my favourite at this stage as well. Cheers 😁
Bet deus 2 is easy try minelab etrac still dont under stand it yet run the 600 or deus orx easy ones
I came into the hobby after the etrac, but I ran a 600 for the first few years on this channel. Deus II’s base modes are relatively easy, however tweaking it is not as user-friendly as other machines eg Minelab, Nokta. Cheers 😊
@@DirtFishMish ya run a 600 today good detector but is 8 enough make it 9 in a few yrs after all the hype has gone
@@williamkennedy8768 I’ve retired my 600 and my 800 now (800 technically the husbands lol), all of them are good machines but I’m in water all the time so I need a machine with reliable waterproofing.
@@DirtFishMish oh yes that where all the good stuff is at taking kayak out on river this yr hope it’s not too high
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
great time out and I love your attitude and way you look at everything .... cute feet too
What do you think of the legend now since you been using it
