@4:50 looks like the armature part of an electric motor. I am starting to hear that Mexican 'Aye-yaya-yaie' whenever Adele insults you and marches off.
Merrill, you and Adele are priceless! Didn't learn a thing about metal detecting, but was thoroughly entertained. Spring is here, the perfect time for you to rescue all the silver in the parks and fields before they bulldoze it and turn it to astroturf. Stay safe and keep digging.
Dude, I have to be totally 100% honest with you . When I first started metal detecting, a week ago lol I watched your you tude videos, like every one does . I came across your channel and my first impression was ,what is this weird shit haha just being honest, but today this very second I believe you have one of the best channels on you tube ,I literally just said to my wife I need my merril fix ...so thank you I appreciate all the time you take to make these videos please keep them coming.
Lived on Nostrand ave and ave T for years never hit Dead horse bay, and I was always at the NYPD driving range cross street at Floyd., Great mudlarking sir.
The coin that you found that was chopped on both sides is an old Australian coin from where I live I would an old six pence or a three pence the design on it is our coat of arms it should have a kangaroo and an end on it and should say advance Australia on it if you look closely at it
Hi Merrill I think your silver piece dated 1943 is possibly trench art from WW2 . I think that it is made from an Australian silver Sixpence. These coins were minted in Denver, USA and shipped out to Oz. All the best, Alan.
Merrill, i wondered a while back about using one of those really small water bottles, and making a vinegar and water solution that you could drop coins and other small things in the facilitate the cleaning process. would that be too harsh on the metal too? i mean, i know it wouldnt hurt over a short time, maybe just start softening the mineral build up on such items.
Hi mate just want to tell you you helpt me true a difficult time in my live I reeley look ffw to look at all youer findings I just had my 3 opperasion on my left hand I lost 60% of my left middil finger I started metal detecting to take my mind of my finger I have depresion and p.d.s.d my live is not the same and you reeley put a smile on my dail TANGK you youer mate from DOWEN UNDER
Martin that truly means a lot my friend. I started detecting at a pretty dark time in my life and it has helped me cope with so many things. Keep swinging my friend!
Great video and great finds as always, Adele is an absolute legend, reminds me of a customer I used to have who no matter how much you did for them, you never did enough or did it right, but in an endearing way! I have a question for you Merrill and any other detectorists in the comments, I realize I can Google this stuff and I have been looking, but I'd like some opinions from experience, I am this close to buying my first detector, and I was wondering what the general consensus around the Garrett Ace 300 is? Could I, as a complete newbie (although fairly technically minded generally) do better for the same sort of money? Or am I onto a good track? I'll mostly be detecting in soil and a lot of places locally are fairly clay-heavy soils so I don't know if that makes a considerable difference. Thanks in advance to anyone with input and sorry Merrill for hijacking your comments asking this, it just seems like it's a fairly friendly community in your comment section so I figured it would be a good place to ask.
. I have to fast forward through the unpleasantness. Not a fan of the bickering. But, the shoreline treasure hunt is always enjoyable. So many unique snips of the past.

Welcome to fun club people!! Hey Mr. Merrill!

How cool hunting there. A treasure field.. Great hunt 😎😎
That heavy thing with copper wrapped wires looks like a little motor i just found in a 30s logging dump.
Its funny the horse nose ring was not only silver but also an horse shoe to funny 😄 😆 🤣
Thanks!
I am amazed you spotted that tiny chain...Wow!
Agree 100% with Tim Thompson. You found a cut sixpence from Australia. Silver coin.
23:30 - The coin was a 1943 D Australia King George VI Sixpence Silver Coin. Most likely part of a bracelet lost to a fire.
I love the Banter between these two! Hilarious friendly competition
Hello 👋 Merrill great video...congrats on the finds

Kevin you made my day! Thank you so much! I lm the first to admit that I’m a bit wacko, but it’s all in fun to be creative and make people smile!
SUSHI! Has been unlocked, BANG!!!
@22:53 it looks like an Australian 1943 silver 6 pence coin made into a ring or pendant
Accent cracks me up. Thanks for the laughs Merrill!
Adele is just priceless .

Coin made into probably part of a bracelet is a 1943 Australian silver sixpence
This is correct.
i also thought it was part of a bracelet due to holes on both ends. but, what is the glob of silver doing on the back?
26:42 clear marble!

I believe that Finding Nemo taught us all that seagulls' vocabulary is limited to "mine, mine, mine."
5:10. Part of motor for a drill
Nice finds

@@MetalDetectingNYC Tangs MATE 👍
Great finds. I wonder if you could find a name on the back of the bowling medal to whom it was awarded.
Good question. I have to clean it more!
How did you ever find the GOLD !!!!!! chain ...GOOD JOB
The first item you asked about appears to be the winging out of an old electric motor...
The thing with the B looks like a cuff link .
The copper cylinder is the armature of a clock motor
That copper doodad, can be cleaned by letting it soke in CLR
for the day at least you own the BAY!
Great video and great finds as always, Adele is an absolute legend, reminds me of a customer I used to have who no matter how much you did for them, you never did enough or did it right, but in an endearing way!

1943-D Australian Sixpence made into a ring.
5:00 small electric motor armature see;
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armature_(electrical)
The piece of silver wire is most likely the spring part of a old Silver Cigarette Case or Makeup Compact
That silver coin/ring object looks like Dominican Republic silver coin.
That’s a rotor from an old motor
Adele for President 2024!
At 5 minutes in you found a small electric motor.
It's not a kwuarter. It's a small electric motor keep going buddy
The copper thing is the inside of a electric motor
Rotor for electric motor
Merrill be nice to Adelle please!
Your find is a motor coil. You're welcome.

Agreed. I know they are friends, but the bickering does get old. Love his videos and adventures, though. :D

Run your teeth against the Pearl. If it feels slightly gritty, the Pearl is genuine.
