Old As Dirt Relic Hunting
United States

More Treasures from the Old Catholic Girls' School -- SILVER, SILVER and MORE SILVER!
I returned to Villa Maria to continue the search for Fort Beauharnois, a 1727 French stockade, church and trading post. Spoiler alert: The exact locations of the second and third rebuilt forts remain lost to history, but there was SILVER, SILVER, and MORE SILVER found in the ground that day.

Переглядів 84121 день тому
I joined one man's quest to find Fort Beauharnois, 1727 French stockade, church and trading post now lost to history. Clues pointed to a possible location-the site of Villa Maria, a Catholic girls' school built in 1890. This once-in-a-life time permission led to a once-in-a-lifetime find! Watch how long it takes me to realize what I'd just found. CORRECTIONS The Church did not purchase the prop...
DOGGONE! How a Lost Dog Led to an 1850's Dream Permission

Thanks to a connection made through my volunteer work helping families find their lost dogs, I had the opportunity to detect the yard of a house built in 1854 by one of the pioneers in the county.

A look at some of my better finds for 2024. (I was using my PC's cursor to point at various objects on the screen, and somehow when the screen capture was converted to video, the cursor no longer aligned with what I'd pointed at!

How to Use Electrolysis to Clean Your Metal Detecting Finds
Переглядів 2,3 тис.8 місяців тому
Electrolysis is a simple process for removing rust, corrosion and concretions from your finds. Think of it as a way of "separating" materials that are bonded together. It works great on iron, but be aware that electrolysis can strip the patina off nonferrous items. Use it sparingly if at all. I was not able to get a definitive ID on the hatchet used in the video. Best guess is that it may have ...
