BTW... I was locked out of my channel for the last 5 days and wasn't able to post anything that wasn't already scheduled. I should be back on track now with a lot of videos coming up. Thanks for hanging around!
@@aquachigger I dont usually like to speak for others but in this case I feel pretty comfortable saying you dont have to worry about us hanging around, because nothing could drag us away
I have watched every single One of your videos up until last year when I got sick and had to take a break. I require two surgeries and I’m just starting to get back to normal and catching up on the videos I have missed you are a great inspiration and inspired me to do this when I get better. It has been a long hard road to get to this point. But following you has given me great hope. Thanks I truly admire you.
Always great to see videos made down under - and it seems you had a lot of fun there with the locals :) I am still putting some money aside to once get there myself for a few weeks. Great continent, wonderful nature & people. 4:28 must be the cap from a medical product from former producer "Squibb" est. 1958 in Brooklyn (now Bristol-Myers Squibb).
"The Australian Florin was a very popular silver coin, first minted in 1910 and same weigh 11.31 grams as English florin and minted to 1963. During war years 1942 to 1944 florins were minted in the San Francisco Mint in the United States. Mint marks are H : Birmingham, M : Melbourne, S : San Francisco." Love your videos my friend! - Dave
You sure are brave. You had me freaked out about snakes just watching you travel down to the old creek bed. Yikes! 😳. I would bed that those were flies biting you. They tend to bite here before it rains, so maybe it is the same there. I love the little hat that Warren found. So cute and artistic. on the coin. Congrats on the silver coin. I would have thought they would have been minted in Canada like so many other countries of the Commonwealth are. Wow. Denver mint. Who knew? I am wondering if the thingy you found after would be an umbrella tip or cane tip?
Those so called grommets are actually eyelets which are two piece brass sandwiched and attached to tarpaulins for tents or hoochies (tarp shelters). hope you enjoyed your time down under! I am an ex serviceman from here in Australia and have used the eyelet punch!
@@ashleigh2491 most people in Australia have been misnaming them, they are still widely used and still readily available. Take some time, you WILL find I am right!
Lucky you, you met some March Flies. They make me scratch till I break the skin. I always carry some Hydrogen Peroxide to dad on their bites. That lead bit was the top off a lead head nail for roofing. Seals the nail hole in the iron. A real curse to detectorists. So are those brass eyelets.
Lovely little sixpence, I had no idea they were minted in the US. And Warren's coin bush hat was just awesome. Bless your heart, you are in Grommet Central there...! Great video, Chigg!
Funny to know that they still called them hooches during my time in Bosnia in ‘99. Pretty sure they were just plywood and 2x4s with tin roofs. No asbestos.
Mate top video and congrats on the silver coin you dug up , as well as the trench art slouch hat Warren got is absolutely brilliant , myself and kids are NQ Explorer and Chigg fans and love watching yas on UA-cam Hope your enjoying your Aussie stay mate ❤️👍
You were sure playing Wallace to those Gromit's...ha ha ha...finding so many. I began to think they just abandoned their tents when the war ended and left. Nice silver coin find tho so you weren't skunked. It was interesting to know that we coined silver coins for the Aussie's during the war. I am no coin buff so it was news to me. Thanks for sharing another chapter in your adventures down under. It's good to see you out and about with some locals. They seem like very nice folks. Happy hunting and have a great day!
Unka Chig's Grommet Emporium - now open! At least no snakes got involved. The soil , rocks , and vegetation seem strange. Like you're in Australia or something. 😉
Hahaha onya Chiggar good to see you enjoying Our flies hahaha nice sixpence find mate How’s Warrens trench art piece AWSOME find Enjoy your stay in Oz mate yew blue Hahaha ask Wozza what blue means lol lol Cheers Crouch Oz
Surprisingly enough Randle there are videos of the dirt burning in Australia. Believed to be organic matter from stock yards spontaneously lighting 👍 Are you the Randle Richardson always on who tee who's channel?

David Crozier I thought most of us in Australia called them grommets. I always have and other detectorists I know

That penny hat trench art is awesome.
How awesome is it knowing that you have been to parts of Australia that most Australians don't go to.
Only you Chigg would travel 9,400 miles to dig up junk,LOL. Thanks for the Vids. :)
Great video Chigg. Really enjoyed this Australian adventure.
Great video keep them up

Chigg - "I'm probably going to die of lung disease or something."
Warren - "yeah that's probably what's going to happen."
😂😂😂😂
Excellent video as always, great to see Warren & Colleen from NQ Explorers as well, keep them coming 👍
How fun
Awesome traveling around and seeing the world. Cool Thumbs up!
Lovely little sixpence, I had no idea they were minted in the US. And Warren's coin bush hat was just awesome. Bless your heart, you are in Grommet Central there...! Great video, Chigg!
Shaving cream came in those tubes as well.
Those tubes could be sweet condensed milk that they had in their army ration packs.
They no longer need too know what snake bit you.
That corrugated asbestos is the same stuff that our "hooches" were constructed of during my time in Viet Nam 1966-67.
Funny to know that they still called them hooches during my time in Bosnia in ‘99. Pretty sure they were just plywood and 2x4s with tin roofs. No asbestos.
Australia, the land down under, where all the critters can put you down under...
Mate top video and congrats on the silver coin you dug up , as well as the trench art slouch hat Warren got is absolutely brilliant , myself and kids are NQ Explorer and Chigg fans and love watching yas on UA-cam
Hope your enjoying your Aussie stay mate ❤️👍
Another great video. Thank you for sharing with us. Happy Hunting 🇳🇿

Yeah I’ve got a 1943 Australia penny it’s huge compared to our penny’s. I’ve got it in my lock 🔐 box. It’s a big penny made in 1943.
Awesome trip. I couldn't handle the plane ride that far. Really cool content!
Hey Chigg - watch out for those deadly Australian snakes!!
Unka Chig's Grommet Emporium - now open! At least no snakes got involved. The soil , rocks , and vegetation seem strange. Like you're in Australia or something. 😉
That coin hat is amazingly cool. Great find.
Hey man thanks for the video
😱What there's no Anti-deadem???
Congrats on the Six P :)
Great team, Chigg & NQ!😎👍😊✌
Those large flies are called March flies. And it barely ever rains, so the ground is mostly hard all the time. Great coin find.
9:31 “Warren has never detected down here”...because that’s where the death adders live? Good thing you have a snakebite bandage! 😀
How long are you in Australia ?
Hahaha onya Chiggar good to see you enjoying
Our flies hahaha nice sixpence find mate

Great video nice to see some ww2 stuff that trench art is awesome I found something similar once
Congratulations on the silver coin. I knew you’d find one soon chigg.
The sixpence is silver so at xmastime one or more were put in the Christmas pudding. If you were lucky and found one in your slice ,you got the prize.
Zinc oxide cream tubes...
Out there getting some ticks!!!!😂
I know some people that make those hats and other things from coins
A friend of mine in Australia has invited me to visit and do some gold detecting but I declined because of all of those two step snakes.
Right on buddy! Glad your having a blast!
Watch out for them Black Mombas
You and your ant mounds. Chigg's Tube & Grommet.
Sup good luck
No tooth paste tubes... no gold rings.
23:30 is the lead top off a roofing nail.
You have a set of brass ones, digging in Australia with no gloves!! Literally everything is trying to kill you out there :-)
Literally no it doesn't but everything does have aids
Lol, there was a big X marking that 2nd hit.
Hope while your down under ya do some big nugget hunting..🍀
I was just checking to see if you had posted and boom it popped up .
Chigg- you should look into us minting and printing of foreign currency. We have been doing it for quite a while and for a long of countries.
Snakes are so outta there long before the hands and feet get close..I hope lol
It looks so dry over there the dirt would probably burn.
Bring on the mightnight oil,some good tunes
Surprisingly enough Randle there are videos of the dirt burning in Australia. Believed to be organic matter from stock yards spontaneously lighting 👍
Are you the Randle Richardson always on who tee who's channel?
lol... it was REALLY dry.
Shane Von Harten yep that’s me on whooo tee Whoos channel. That odd dirt burning now.
Aquachigger yep we can tell.
CHIGG...don't be scared to look at whatever bites you LMAO!!! HA!!!!
Was ist langweiliger als Angeln, beim Angeln zuschauen so ähnlich ist das sondeln in Amerika oder Australien.
Welcome back!!! You have been missed!
That fly is a march fly, they are painful buggers
tent or canvas washer.
Yes please😁😁

I wish I was there to detecting
Great video chigg we’re waiting on the next one be safe GOD BLESS.
Who loves chigg I do I dooo
That was fun!
i was getting worried.lol
That one iron signal might be a old colonial rifle or pistol 🔫
I love you, Chiggg.
edited title "digging up WWII gromets"
Wonder if anyone ever told Chig that he looks like Bill Mosely.
Yo sick bro
Wonder who dropped the coin???? We’ll never know.
Is it only me that thinks Warren resembles the Chigg somewhat?
The Chigg!
Your tougher than that Chigg.
sick of all the ads 10 ads on this vid
BoE it's still the dry season here
Me hehe it's always the dry season
Doing great 👍eat a lot and drink a lot ✋
Chig....come home...any relics requiring a snake bite kit to find are not worth it!!!
The ground is more like concrete ain’t it chigg.
Heeeeeee Warren 😂
And the only real battle of Australia was between the US and the civilians in ww2
