I got my 1st 5000d in the mid 70's and 2 others after. Found over $97,000.00 with them.

It's funny because I had to file for unclaimed funds to get $80 for this video. Most of my early videos from 15 years ago were family videos. Never made a penny until this January. Buzz

@@BuzzRetirementGarage It's always fun to look back and see how much things have changed, like technology. And, remember the happier moments in life too. We moved to Ohio when my daughter was 10, and she's about to turn 29 this year. Life seems travel fast the older we get.

Love the video, great commentary, funny. I just feel for grass dude, I hope it roots back, looks pretty dry there, mowers can throw those plugs. Nice job though, fun to watch.

Thanks for your comments 1969nevets1969. Actually this detector has a decent depth range for as old as it is. I am looking to upgrade since I have "the fever" again! I'm looking at the Whites upscale models. Think I should go Garrett over Whites? As far as "banging the dirt/coins" you're right, I should be more careful and use more care just in case I find that "coin of a lifetime".

Peterwo2e....you're right. It would be a lot easier if I had a pinpointer. Last week I ordered the Vibra-Probe 570 from TC detectors. Should receive it this week. Still learning the XLT I purchased and soon I'll post another vid.

Update to all: I just purchased a used Whites XLT off E-Bay for $476.00 dollars. Hopefully it will be an upgrade!

Well it's been awhile since I posted this video and I did buy the Whites XLT and a Vibraprobe 570. I will post a video soon. I think I want a Minelab E-Trac now!

I used to own your exact detector in the early 80's. I'm on my 4th White's, an XL-Pro (final version of the 6000-D). I highly recommend it. It has Target ID and Depth reading. Another good choice is the 5900-Pro SL, which is almost identical to the XL-Pro, except no Automatic Ground Adjust. You can pick up a good used unit on Ebay for $250 - $450. Buying used is the way to go. Many people buy one, use it 3 times, put it in a closet, then sell it years later.

Hey Bryan351-I've been looking at the M6 and will be stopping at my local dealer to "test drive" the White's line. Thanks for the tips!

Plugs will be smothered by surrounding grass and in a few months they can not be seen. Most times I carry a small bag of grass seed as well. As far as the knife,I mostly use a screwdriver and a skinny garden shovel. Since I love fishing too, I always carry this smaller version knife to the river and I grabbed it for this "search" The school kids were on summer vacation. You're right, I would not recommend carrying a "survival" knife through an active playground.

I found rings all the time on discriminator. The thing about the 5000d is batteries. As the batteries get weak, the sensitivity gets worse.
