Thank you for your time!
Man, that may have given somebody happy memories many years ago.
Got my 1st metal detector in 1964. ($29.95 from Dart Electronics) from the back of "Boy's Life" Magazine..... You kids today don't know how good you have it!!!🤔😡😒. (Or had it!!)😆
Hello there bro... that old school Detector, is a Keeper.... I keep my eye out for something like that .. for my kids... Being in NZ... Technology, is a Tad behind in many respects...Cool video clip for sure... Thank you...🤠
great vid, you stuck with it good. its the reality of discovery... made me revel in the glory of my equinox.
This was pretty dope. It reminds me of my cheap ass Walmart detecor. Except it has TWO knobs but still one tone.
But my next idea for you is to use an old ww2 mine sweeper lol
Gotta love those old machines. Reminds me of the first detector I had, a Garrett Freedom 2+ . It worked pretty well and was really similar to yours. I found a lot of stuff with it, and it found the token that won my second detector at a seeded hunt in MI, many years ago. Once you found a target, you could turn the disc knob higher until the target sound disappears, and get a rough idea what it could be. You could also estimate the size the target by moving the detector back and forth over it And watching the coils swing distance as you move it. Fun machines they were! Keep Digging, A!
That’s funny. I bought the exact same detector about a year ago in a thrift store for $20. I bought it to resale, but did play with it for a few hours. Ended up selling it on eBay for $120. Not a bad profit.
Me & my wife sell on eBay as our full time job. We absolutely love our job & make more money then when we worked full time.
awesome!! I used to love thrifting and flipping on ebay! Need to get back into it, it's super fun! Just another form of a treasure hunt... 🙌
Really enjoyed this episode. Love the old detector. It works well actually. I like the simple ones. Do a episode for each individual detector you have. That would be great.👍👍👍 Thanks
ALL my detectors are from the 80's and 90's and they still do very well!
Surprised how reactive this one actually is, seems to process the signal really quick! I tried a modern $100 amazon detector it's pretty weak compared to this old one
Very cool machine. Would be fun to use one, a true surprise with every, single, tone
I have an old M Scope Gold Bug. Pretty sure it was built in 1987. It's the only machine I've actually found gold nuggets with. Got a whites GMT goldmaster but it's so heavy I usually grab the Gold Bug, if Im prospecting. Zero discrimination or Iron reject... If it beeps you dig it 😂.
That's so awesome to be out diggin targets with a $3 machine. Great video
Enjoyed the video so peaceful out there
Someone told me that it doesn't matter what kind of detector you have if there are no good targets in the ground to start with. You got to go where people lose the coins and jewelry to make the good finds. Of course, it can be surprising as to where those places are sometimes.
Cool test of the old detector. It’s great at finding all kinds of junk.
Florida does have some history your a humble man for sure if you look back on the oldest maps of North America you can find doesn’t matter how old you will always see Florida clearly marked
Run one of these back in the 90 will find silver was finding same coins with whites idx pro still own some of these same machines today
A friend of mine had this unit during the early 90's & did real well with it at the schoolyards.......I sure miss those days!.....We can't hunt our local schools anymore. They are now guarded like Fort Knox now!
thats a shame!! most of ours are all gated up here too...
When did the tesoro vaquero come out? Still use it. Works great
Lobe the old analog machines!!!
You got that sheath for your hand digger from paystreak superfreak I recognize it. Cool.
They will definitely still find stuff, my *newest* machine is nearly that old! That will probably change soon.
I bought a Garrett Freedom Ace from a rental place for 20 dollars about 10 years ago. Works fine! Any idea how old it is? It looks like yours in this video but it has two knobs for discrimination. Thanks for your video!!
If my knowledge serves me right.. that machine is likely from around 1985! Thanks for stopping by!
You know after you've located a target item, re-scanning over it after increasing discrimination (sometimes repeatedly) should give a little better clue of what you are going to dig ... enjoyed the video.
The freedom one the freedom 2 the freedom 3 and Ace models come out in 1985. The treasure Ace sold for $145.
Just watching your Video clip again bro.. difficult to absorb it all at once..🤠🤠one mustn't forget.. .. Gold amongst the TRASH......🤠
Old school do you remember when we didn't have pinpointers ? I forgot you're to young to remember
I remember when I didn't have a pinpointer 🤣 now that's dedication to the hobby! the ol swing the dirt over the coil til it beeps 😝
Lmao great video and love the old school detector. that flapping sheath is a half twirl away from being a helicopter
🤣🤣🤣bro those last few seconds i was dying, what an animal, your girl in the background talkin to you and your flappin your thang around 🤣🤣🤣
😭
I think I am going to start calling you Leather Man Jack.. 100 ...that is an old detector works great for 3 dollars .. would pay itself off in less then a day.. Good Score on it at the yard sale
👍 It's vintage, so am I 👍
Only machine I use. Hasn't let me down yet
I have a treasure ace 200 and it got me loads of silver
Cool machine, reminds me of my bounty hunter. But you scored a few coins. That's better than nothing. 😆💖💯
I just picked up a Tesoro Tejon. Fun 1 tone.
nice!! a little bit of SPICE! 😝
@@TreasureOutdoors it’s fancy I can change the pitch of the tone in case I get bored!
I got a garret ace 200 Lund a gold ring and 100 dallars I’m scrap metal and 100s of dallars I’m coins
Hello Austin
Hey Gregory! How is the weather up there? About 55 here in FL... a bit CHILLY for me! 😝
Beautiful sound for old detector. Garrret ace 150,250,300,400 have shit sound
Discriminate everything out under a Penny or dime and I bet you can pay that machine off in one day.
That’s because you ramble on too much you forgot what you were gonna say
