Every time I open my fridge now, this little voice in my head says, "This week on the Hoover Boys...." Gives me a good chuckle. Loved the video. About 17 years ago, I bought a collection of finds from an estate of an amateur archeologist of sorts. Most of the items came from southern Ontario. In the collection was a small jar of buttons, which I ignored for a while. Later, when bored, I went through the jar of buttons and there was one that was unusual. It was bronze-ish and over an inch in diameter, the shank was gone. I stuck it in a drawer with the intent of searching the internet to see if I could identify it. Many months later I pulled it out of the drawer, examined it and started my search. It was a George Washington Inauguration button. What fun. Sadly, I had to sell it to make a mortgage payment. :(
Thanks Kurt, this video means a lot to me. I was absolutely wrecked. It's a rush that I can't explain. Rare coins and coppers are something, but this find, my greatest to date, moved me in a way that I can't describe. My eyes were watering, heart was pounding out of my chest, one of those few instances where you have to walk away from the hole. This find also helped me get my head straight mentally. After damaging one, and even destroying another rare coin, pulling this out of a farm field unscathed by my shovel has really helped the psyche. Huge thanks to all who watched and enjoyed this button coming back to life!
Great job Brad. Always enjoy The Hoover Boys videos. One of these days I am gonna go for a long drive and come dig with you guys. Happy Hunting in the dirt and the streets! Jr. Coker
Congrats man. I just got into detecting. Have basic cheap detector at the moment and my only trip out i found an old tootise car. Maybe one day I can be lucky enough to find some good old history. The car belonged to one of my uncles
Nice job dude!! But... it is painfully obvious that that button was destroyed by your shovel!! You expect us to believe a plow did that??? C’mon man LOL
Today I took my citizenship test and passed , one of the questions I was asked was . Who was the first president? I knew the answer and told the Immigration officer I had been to Mount Vernon and seen George Washington’s grave . I got very emotional seeing that button and Listening to You give that history lesson. Kurt I really like your channel and congratulations to Brad , wow amazing find . My citizenship ceremony probably will not be till February. Merry Christmas Andrew .
This group of people make me smile. I stumbled across your channel about a year ago. I don’t metal detect I don’t treasure hunt. But I sure live vicariously through you. Thank you all for saving history!
Brad, Congratulations to such an incredible find, not to mention all of you guys being the classiest bunch of patriotic treasure hunters i've ever seen! You make this hobby/work look easy on youtube and gives this hobby/sport a true shot in the arm, Im glad we are from the same town/state. Ive been detecting for many years and still learning, thanks Hoover Boys!
Another incredible piece of history rescued from the gnashing teeth of the field plow, congratulations Brad! You're as lucky as you are skilled. Finding early relics is always amazing, but especially so when they are DIRECTLY connected to the very beginning of this great nation. Well done sir!
What do I love most about the Hoover Boys? Their excitement when "Bucket Listers" or other great finds are dug up; very honest and genuine. Love the passion they show for the things they love, to include their family, friends and let's not forget the respect they hold for the land owners. Well done boys, well done.
Congratulations Brad on the amazing find. What makes this extra special is the fact that the whole world has a chance to see some incredible history after being buried in a field all these years. Thanks Kurt for making that happen. I can not imagine all the work that goes into making each episode. It would be so easy to just keep looking for the next target but you stop to document everyone's finds and put it all in context so that we all get to enjoy The Hover Boys and Compny. Take care.
Wonderful comment. Thank you for the kind words. Some days are tough. Especially when there’s a lot of coils on the ground. It’s all good though. I did it to myself and I enjoy it. All the best
That's an amazing piece of history saved no matter what the dings of flaws are. Just like America, we have our bumps and bruises, but we are still here. Great job Brad, and as always, HH
To show that much composure in the narration of the inauguration of George Washington when finding the crown jewel of American history is amazing in itself but to actually find the jewel its got to be the most unbelievable feeling,saving history at its best wow ! well done now we know why all holes matter..👍
Wow! Kurt and gang, what an amazing find. Your love of our U.S. history gets me all pumped and excited. Great video. Your story in recalling the George Washington inauguration gave me goose bumps. I love it. Awesome.
The presidential button was a killer!!!! Nice piece of history even if it is damaged a bit! What a show stopper! Great job Brad and great video guys! Thanks again. H.H.
Awesome video from start to finish .... CONGRATS to Brad John's on a once in a life time find and a tremendous thank you for the awesome history Kurt did on the G.W. BUTTONS.... THE HOOVER BOYS ROCK
Congratulations on all of your finds. Another outstanding day in the fields. Good fun for viewing and big time history with the coinage and buttons. See you on your next hunt and best of luck. 🤙👏
WOW!!!, and.......WOW!!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🍾🎈 Brad!! What a special find. ^_^ Kurt, you made me tear up when you told your story in your truck. I love your show, thanks!!!
Thank you For sharing your finds with us!!!! Metal detecting has always been a true passion of mine. I always dream of finding old coins and true relics of American History. I always look forward to watching each and every week. Congratulations Brad!! That Button is a true piece of American History!! As always good luck and happy hunting!
Congrats to Brad on the G.W. button. I was going to come up with some sort of silly rhyme but I am just too stunned to think of anything! What an incredible piece of history you just pulled out of the ground there! And people wonder why geeks like us love to swing the coil?!? For moments like that if you are lucky enough to experience it in a life time!!! Brad you are on a very short list my friend!!! I just ask myself why?!? Why?!? Did my ancestors decide to leave the Maryland/Virginia area and move West?!? I might just be digging right there beside you!! Seriously though what an incredible historic save!! Salute!!!
The Hoover Boys you’re very welcome, thank you for the quality entertainment week after week! I got a metal detector earlier this year thanks to you guys (though I’m a lot better at watching videos than detecting 😜)
That find by Brad tops it all of U.S. history! Kurt it took you awhile to calm down after that. I couldn't imagine how long it would have taken, if you would have dug it!
Words fail me, that was superb! Congratulations Brad, I can't even type straight on my keyboard, that was so astounding! What a fantastic bit of history! Thanks Kurt for that piece about the presidents inauguration, it gave me shivers too. What a find of a lifetime. You guys have so much fun! I loved all the other buttons and finds too. That field really gave it up for you all, but especially Brad! WOW!
What a nice hunt! Congrats to Brad on his GW but that Connecticut copper is very nice. All those buttons, amazing. Great job, guys, thanks for sharing!
You should do a video of each member of hoover boys of all your finds from the years your best and how you display them I think that would be cool to see. I'm in my first year of detecting and its so inspiring to see the finds it makes ya wanna go straight outside and hunt...lol. Awesome as always keep it up gentlemen.
Wow! Congrats to Brad on his GW find. I know he’ll keep it as found, but I’d take it to a jeweler to have it flattened, given a rim and wear it around my neck forever.
Thank you all for the continued support!!
