  • I was out of town this past weekend and didn't get out to metal detect. I decided to put together a compilation video of my top 5 greatest metal detecting finds of all time. It was hard to pick just 5, but I couldn't leave out any of the 5 in this video. In this video I dug my first Gold Coin, a 1793 Flowing Hair Chain Cent, War of 1812 Officers Belt Plate, a pewter Revolutionary War USA Army coat button, and a Linked States design George Washington Inauguration button. It's amazing having them all in a video together! Thank you for watching & see you next week!!

    I just got a detector for the first time on July 5th. My best find to date? My wedding ring that I lost on July 4th in a field watching fireworks. Not exactly saving history, but monumental in preventing future hostilities - with my wife. ;-)

    Curt, I've been a subscriber for many years, I've watched you you and the gang through thick and thin, from loads of coins and relics to absolutely nothing sometimes and I'll admit I've like all the videos and places you gone that I was able to watch you go and I've always thought you were a bit whiny, NO MORE and my sincerest of apologies'... but this video, this awesome video has made me gain a new level of respect and American pride for you my countryman. You sir are a true American Patriot, I can see it in the emotional looks on your face when finding these priceless pieces of our history as a early nation and I am proud to have you representing the metal detecting community with your videos of your personal adventures, Thank you for doing what you do to save American history. You sir are a real life superhero, never change, tow the line you are the most genuine person I've ever had the pleasure of watching. My hats off to you.

    My best find is not historical or reason to jump up and down for but means a lot to me. When I was 10 my grandfather was teaching me how to buck hay out in his field. When we got back to the house he realized that he lost his watch. We looked for a couple hours and never found it. Just last year I found it with my new metal detector! It was about an inch deep. He lost that watch about 45 years ago. Thanks for sharing your finds! I would be shaking with excitement as well!!

He's a great dude and recently helped me identify my best find. A 1925 Charlie Chaplin Gold Rush movie premiere token. Hoover Boys, Quarter Hoarder Crew & Green Mountain... Best of the best!

    Always great to watch you guys across the big pond. Bit unfair to compare finds from there to here, we have history going back so many more years. My best finds 1: Silver Gilt whistle once owned by Henry VIII 2: 97 coin Silver Roman Hoard 141bc to 46AD 3: Penny of Coenwulf, King of Mercia 796-821 4: Roman Denarius of Otho 5: Nearly complete polished stone axe head 10,000bc to 4,000bc ... I am still waiting for my 1st Gold Coin though.

Kurt to see your top favorite finds to me awesome. A lot of us would of not ever seen these before. As for me it also gave me a history lesson that i love to learn. Kurt Congrats you deserve everyone of these finds. Can't wait to see you do it again sometime or any other of the crew. I get a kick out of how we turn into a kid that just walked into a candy store or getting that special gift the so much wanted wjen they open it up.
