Well, it’s been five years later. It’s interesting to see Chigg hasn’t changed across time. He’s still enthusiastic and not afraid to take relics from snapping turtles or the devil himself.
I love how each bullet or piece you find has a story behind it. One only wishes they could go back in time and see what the situation was that put each bullet there many years ago. Love your videos!
@Mr.Glass Seems pretty accurate to me. Nothing was solved by the war. The 'freed' slaves were hardly free. The South was treated worse after the war than they had been prior to it. The only thing that changed was 600,000 dead and many more without limbs. So much potential lost forever.
@Mr.Glass You're missing the point. The issue of slavery could have been solved by Executive Order or the Supreme Court prior to secession; neither was attempted. The people that propagated the war didn't fight it. Poor white and black folks on both sides fought it. An entire generation was wiped out. More Americans died in that one war than all the wars since, combined. Yes slavery is bad but Americans didn't invent it; it was forced upon us by the colonial powers. The equivalent in terms of population lost due to the war would be like us losing 7 million today. The reason the war happened was because of stubborn Lincoln and a bunch of good ole boys on both sides of the isle wanting to get their way. Sound familiar?
I have enjoyed your digging up Civil War related items. I am a Civil War Reenactor and I am in the 1st United States Berdan Sharpshooters Co C. And we fired Sharps Rifles. So when you find Sharps Rifle bullets I get excited.
I am amazed at how many bullets are found in your video. We have a creek about 20 feet wide and with each major storm and flooding that has swept thru I have found everything from kids toys to large pieces of metal brought down from up stream. I would wonder how many civil war items has been swept down stream from major storms. Our creek has even gone thru major rerouting due to storms flooding our property. No telling how much of the civil war items are there or miles down stream. Great video I enjoy watching. Thank you.
Beau, is there a chance you could do a video describing one of these small unit actions one day? Being over the other side of the pond, I've obviously heard of the major US civil war battles and information on those is readily available but it would be good if you could set the scene for some of your adventures. It's clear over the years I've been watching you, you love the history. Regards - Andrew
It's strange to me how not only time but modern development can totally obliterate the complete history of an area. It's almost like time travel, so to speak. It's time travel right in front of our eyes. Hope you get what I'm saying. Great to see chigg salvage the history for us before it is lost forever. Thank you chigg.
You are amazing Chigg! Not just because of what you find and how you find it....but how well you present it. Your personality and character shine through each and every video. Love you channel.
Another great video. You are lucky to be living in a part of the country where you can find civil war relics. The only civil war relics in my area of the country is the graves of civil war veterans. I spend my time hunting coins though.
Nice hunt and good asortment A friend and I have a spot ware we have dug 54 cal, 58cal, enfeild, williams cleaner, and round balls all fired. My friend dug a bullet in wood their neet spot. P.S. how many bottles of bug spray did you go throu down in that creek.
If you work in creaks and ponds much - consider what we used in shelling in the south Pacific. Take a 2 gallon can - large can or bucket... One the bottom RTV in a plate of plexi-glass and seal it well. Put can on stout handle - axe or such. maybe with a handle... spares at hardware store. Bolt on. now push can most under water - and you can see. Might have to wax the inside to keep the temp difference from fogging. A bit bulky, but handy to look see.
I know that I have come across this video four years after the fact, but I just want to say how much I enjoy your videos! You keep them fun, entertaining, AND, EDUCATIONAL. Thanks Chigg!!!!
Man, I am super jealous of this video! I wish I could find a Civil War bullet! I'll be going up to Tennessee in March to detect an old 1800's home site along a dried-up creek and I would love to find some of those! Wish I could record it to share my finds with you, AquaChigger!
i live in hoke county, nc and i was wondering if you have done any detecting in the area? general sherman marched through here in 1865. i have been doing some research to see if i could find locations where skirmishes may have happen, so i can use my garrett ace 350 You recommended i get for a good starter detector. hope to have some good luck. Thanks for the inspiration and stay awesome.
Finding bulets and musket balls is great food for historical thought. I found a lot of musket balls on a beachhead, nothing else and most were fired. About 400 yards away I then found a Half-Crown from 1689 and could assume almost immediately that the musket balls were belonging to the army of the Mad Monarch King James II. There was probably a skirmish there after the siege of Limerick that was never recorded. The interesting thing about the coin is it was made of Gun-metal and was one of the first ever promissory notes as the King didn't have the gold or siver to pay the army at the time so guns were melted down to make the money that would be exchanged for Gold and silver of the equivalent value once the King was victorious at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. He lost the battle and the promissory note was never paid out; nothing has changed. Metal detecting is a great pastime.
great video i was about to give up metal detecting till i watch your videos you taught me more then any other channel and you give great tips i found my first ring yesterday is a junk ring but still a cool find thank you for all your help
My friend wears a neon green vest on job sites in commercial and residential and he calls it hiding in plain sight ,he swears that it's obvious the people see him but assume he is surveying or construction and never come to help him do his work !
The soldiers,who ever they were.were using the stream as a ready made trench from which to take shelter and or as a fighting position,on top of that the soldiers would have a source of water to drink from without exposing themselves to the line of fire. To be handling something that someone's great,great grandfather handled 153 hears ago,is very awe inspiring indeed!.
Hey, here is something you might find interesting. I used to work at a lumber yard in Seminole County Florida. I put rough cuts through a plainer. Every once in a while I would skim a Civil War bullet embedded in a board. Never gave it much thought till I saw this video.
Beau, I think that by carrying all that lead and iron home, you are eventually going to accumulate enough so as to change the earth's magnetic field in Maryland. Be careful dude.
Fascinating aspect that the bullet trees fall into the creek and are preserved. Only experience can teach understanding to that degree. Good thing you have sharp perception!....Thanks for sharing really enjoy your videos.
I am baffled on the amount of lead bullets ,artillery shells , cannon balls , belt buckles rifles and so on. are being found by different detectorist ,you , nugget and others . I would think you would find bones in the rivers . ( not trying to sound gruesome) but there were a tremendous amount of brave boys shot , died during the civil and revolutionary wars, tremendous amount . The area you were in today reminds me of a ambush so a heavy volley of fired guns going off together was in order. Now..... in Washington DC in one of the museums is a section of a tree that was cut down by being constantly hit by bullets during one of the wars in this country. The things we take for granted. God bless the good old USA. AMEN
+Gregory martin Red dirt in the south is acidic. You won't find any bones in southern graves because the acid has dissolved them years ago. Streams also have alot of rotting vegatation that has tannic acid that would dissolve bones.
And if the dead's bones were left on top of ground, the squirrells eat them. Yep, squirrels eat bones. I have some deer bones with their teeth marks in them.
I used to watch you all the time but every summer I don't get on UA-cam and it's nice to see how your doing, I hope you have great luck on your next hunt!
Interesting theory regarding multiple fired bullets. The creek/site looks so remote, and then we see the property stake. So much land/history keeps being lost to development. Thanks for preserving what you can.
On checking those logs for bullets, make sure those logs havent been made into a canoe.. Someone here in S.W Missouri had what they thought was a log in the bend of a creek, later it rained and revealed a hand hued native canoe with arrowheads on board.
I'd love to get in contact with the chigg. I live in North eastern Tennessee. I came across an old map that predates the American revolution. I've contacted the historical society in the county I live as well as Nashville historical archives in which neither place has a copy and are extremely interested and want to copy and duplicate this map for their records. it goes as far back to show all Indian villages down to the powder mills that supplied tn, North Carolina, Virginia, and Kentucky in powder for fighting Indians, forts, a whole lot of lost history that no-one has used metal detectors on these locations. I'm extremely excited to hunt and see what treasures are there to be unearthed
That is so cool!! I really love looking at old maps. I'm a couple hours away in Murfreesboro myself but I'd love to look at the map you found if you don't mind sending a picture. My email is ethan073@gmail
Most excellent, yes in - deed - y. Take a stab at it and tell us how many bullets you now have that you've found in all the years you've been detecting. It would probably take three men and a boy to carry them all, eh? I don't know how you do it Beau but I don't think I would ordinarily watch someone digging fired and un-fired Civil War bullets out of muck. It must be your sparkling personality and commentary LOL. Great video
wow! All those in an hour! I am going to give water detecting a try for the first time this weekend at a creek that Union Soldiers crossed going to and coming back from Gettysburg. I just hope you haven't already been there, or there won't be anything left haha.
"I thought I'd let you SEE what a bullet SOUNDS like.", says Chig. Don't get me wrong, I love Chig's vids. Still his quote SOOOOOOOOOO reminded me of the following quote from Ghostbusters, "Listen, to you smell something?"
Way to go Beau! You make the best videos! Looks like you are having a killer year! Civil war relics are the best things to find! Nice job on finding all of those bullets! Got a question for you, can you make a video where you talk about and explain different types of civil war buttons and how to tell post civil ones from the civil war ones. Also I'm curious how you got started metal detecting and collecting civil war relics? Anyway, thanks for all of the cool videos and I've been watching your videos since you started. I'm from Portland Oregon and I love collecting civil war relics! Keep making videos and keep going on more awesome adventures. Thanks for letting us come along on your hunts. It would be awesome to meet you some day. Thanks Beau!!!!
I’m a Civil War “buff” and thought this video was very interesting. Quite a haul considering you were scanning for only about an hour and I admire your patience and thoroughness. I didn’t get the name of the area and wondered if you have made a detailed study of Civil War battles and the disposition of the opposing armies which could give you leads where you can find all those relics. Thank you for uploading this video and good hunting!!!!
I am very curious what trees would have been here during the civil war, and much the same curiosity about this stream, how big would this stream would have been, or would it have even been here then ? Might these bullets been sitting on the surface and washed into this stream as it might have been forming years later ?
Try were throwing some massive hunks of led back and forth! I live in possible close to same places your at! I no there is a battle field less than 5-6 miles away and I have come across some old I would feel safe saying Buttons round balls , and the best a old pair of ✂️ all just digging holes to plain tree's and flowers. What's not so expensive detector that is able to go in water? If you have the time to reply I got a few spots I always wondered about because of the location of my home and things I scratch the surface and found! I no there were campsites on my land in SC and in NC
heres a thought about all the unfired sharps. since there were several in a clusterd location. a soldier gets hit with his bullet pouch open, they spilled out as he is falling.
I was lucky enough to find 3 dropped sharps just like those in my yard! Along with plenty of Starr carbine bullets. I thanked you in my video "Amazing find in my yard:
Lol the only relic I found was an old .58 cal musket ball that (after a little digging on the web) found out it was shot from a Pattern 1853 enfield. I was running ALL OVER THE PLACE with a detector and I just sat a few minutes bored digging with a stick it was a non-fired ball a couple inches deep on top of a rock outcrop.... It was covered in some calcium build up I believe and I cleared it out with some vinegar and it looks like it's in MINT condition with no dents or anything.
you prolly dont care at all but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any assistance you can offer me

I love how each bullet or piece you find has a story behind it. One only wishes they could go back in time and see what the situation was that put each bullet there many years ago. Love your videos!
I agree
The situation was that a bunch of innocent young men were forced to murder and maim each other along that stream. And it was all for nothing.

derrik tribble what story?
What he found is probably a small percentage of what is there. So amazing that he is the first person to touch those bullets since the war. So cool.
You are like a farmer who harvests history. Very cool stuff.
An oldie but a goodie, I enjoy rewatching a lot of the older videos they are all good, Thanks Chigg.
I have enjoyed your digging up Civil War related items. I am a Civil War Reenactor and I am in the 1st United States Berdan Sharpshooters Co C. And we fired Sharps Rifles. So when you find Sharps Rifle bullets I get excited.
That's a lot of bullets for just an hour! Thanks for explaining so much history and tidbits along the way!!
Let's just put a happy little bush in this spot.....that's right happy, happy little bush lives right here......"Bob Ross"
I hope everyone appreciates how hard you work! No wonder you find things!
They should do a TV show here. You absolutely have the knack for this and digging up history.
thanks for taking the time to make the video. seeing expended bullets brings the war to life in my imagination.
I am amazed at how many bullets are found in your video. We have a creek about 20 feet wide and with each major storm and flooding that has swept thru I have found everything from kids toys to large pieces of metal brought down from up stream.

Seeing this five years later, but always fascinating. Chigg is the real deal.
I really enjoy the way you talk to the camera as if we were actually there. It's a genuine gift, and it makes the videos very engaging.
stumbled upon this clip. Really cool video! I love Civil War history and relics. Im going to watch more of your clips!
I know that I have come across this video four years after the fact, but I just want to say how much I enjoy your videos! You keep them fun, entertaining, AND, EDUCATIONAL.

I love hunting places like that, where you can see the evidence of a battle raging. I never get tired of digging shot lead.
Fascinating. Finding all those civil war antiquities is so interesting!!!!!
Finding bulets and musket balls is great food for historical thought. I found a lot of musket balls on a beachhead, nothing else and most were fired.

When I'm all stressed out I go watch some 'chigger videos. I don't care how many cans and bullets you pull up!
great video i was about to give up metal detecting till i watch your videos you taught me more then any other channel and you give great tips i found my first ring yesterday is a junk ring but still a cool find thank you for all your help
that's so cool I love old civil war stuff it's so interesting!
I can't help but think of the men, fathers, brothers and sons, who lost their lives.
Love the soft spoken voice! Reminds me of Bob Ross, the treasure hunter version lol.
Dom Vandelay or Ted Bundy
Stupid
Dom Vandelay I was thinking the same thing as he was finding his happy little bullets.
I was thinking same thing about Bib Ross.
My friend wears a neon green vest on job sites in commercial and residential and he calls it hiding in plain sight ,he swears that it's obvious the people see him but assume he is surveying or construction and never come to help him do his work !
Great finds. Great video. I like the sharps bullets.
Love watching old throwbacks forgot your old channel name been watching since I was very young
The soldiers,who ever they were.were using the stream as a ready made trench from which to take shelter and or
as a fighting position,on top of that the soldiers would have a source of water to drink from without exposing themselves to the line of fire.

You sir are the Bob Ross of relic hunting. Great work.
Very cool. Looking forward to seeing what you find up in the woods.

I absolutely LOVE your videos.
Harmless fun and exercise...great little bit of historical escapism...
Trippy! I found one as a child around Atlanta that I’d love to get identified. No idea who could do that.
Sweet skirmish spot. You know there's goodies hiding up in the woods too. Hope you find something great and share with us.

We like watching you dig and listen to the sound the machine makes on diff metal
Great video. I know they aren't worth much but I love it when you're on to civil war-era bullets.

Very interesting, really enjoyed. Thanks for the great narrative.
Awesome video Beau!
great dig, love it! making my day!
Definitely a good spot. Can't wait till you hunt the woods! :))
Nice video. Can't wait till you get back to this area!
So where is this at? I grew up on Bull run in Manassas Va. They had trenches like this dug all over the western side of the creek.cool video
Beau, you and Bigmonkeyone and Wranglerstar keep life interesting even though I can no longer get out and do the things I used to.
I’m a Civil War “buff” and thought this video was very interesting. Quite a haul considering you were scanning for only about an hour and I admire your patience and thoroughness. I didn’t get the name of the area and wondered if you have made a detailed study of Civil War battles and the disposition of the opposing armies which could give you leads where you can find all those relics.

Might these bullets been sitting on the surface and washed into this stream as it might have been forming years later ?
Great Hunt... Hope you get to hit the woods around there.
Very nice for an hour, /hope you do well on land...
I enjoy your love of history
That is a nice find great hunt .hope you can hunt the rest of the battle site Before construction messes it up .good luck
Go to Picketts Mill, GA near New Hope, GA. 6,000 troops killed there in 4 days of fighting.
Try were throwing some massive hunks of led back and forth! I live in possible close to same places your at! I no there is a battle field less than 5-6 miles away and I have come across some old I would feel safe saying Buttons round balls , and the best a old pair of ✂️ all just digging holes to plain tree's and flowers. What's not so expensive detector that is able to go in water? If you have the time to reply I got a few spots I always wondered about because of the location of my home and things I scratch the surface and found! I no there were campsites on my land in SC and in NC
Many rifles are found in rivers because once the powder gets wet it renders the rifle useless. Might as well toss it
heres a thought about all the unfired sharps. since there were several in a clusterd location. a soldier gets hit with his bullet pouch open, they spilled out as he is falling.
Very Cool finds...
Cool . Thanks mate
You are amazing! I love your channel!
In my area, there were .so many military engagements. Second only to Virginia!
Just goes to show, good stuff can be anywhere.... A little research pays off!
You make the best hunting videos! This one was amazing as always!
Did you ever get back to check out the land around the creek?
I was lucky enough to find 3 dropped sharps just like those in my yard! Along with plenty of Starr carbine bullets. I thanked you in my video "Amazing find in my yard:
When you find fired bullets, did you ever wonder if they went through somebody?
This just showed up in my stream somehow but that was interesting start to finish!
Lol the only relic I found was an old .58 cal musket ball that (after a little digging on the web) found out it was shot from a Pattern 1853 enfield. I was running ALL OVER THE PLACE with a detector and I just sat a few minutes bored digging with a stick it was a non-fired ball a couple inches deep on top of a rock outcrop.... It was covered in some calcium build up I believe and I cleared it out with some vinegar and it looks like it's in MINT condition with no dents or anything.
Спасибо за видео, у нас тоже много пуль попадается! Привет из России!
you prolly dont care at all but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
@Anders Milan Instablaster =)
Hey where are you at? I’ve done some searching near the Kennesaw Mountain battle
Looked like am excerpt from 'Predator' at the beginning 😂
Love your finds
Very interesting I love history.
Chigger you’ve got to come to middle TN and we’ll go magnet fishing and detecting soon
Hey Beau---long time no see---still looking good! You're AWESOME as ever! Thank you for the video!! Robin
another great video but don't you worry about things biting you when you are in the water like snakes and things
regards Alex
You should create some sort of board game with Minie ball and Enfield bullets lol sorda like checkers or something.
Fighting must have been intense. Horrible when you stop and think about it. Awesome you can find their bullets.
as always Beau great video and finds must have been one heck of a battle
I'm new to your channel and really enjoying them Keep up the good work!
