    That last jewelry item isn't Victorian, it is Art Nouveau circa 1890-1920.

      The brass plate you found at the 15:30 mark appears to me to be upside-down. It looks like it may be a compass-caliper/divider-protractor combination. Perhaps off a ceremonial masonic or military engineer award piece or even a flagpole placard.

    Thank you. I totally enjoy your videos. I am almost 70 and starting metal detecting. We have found so many artifacts from the 1800s that are now in museums .

    • @AimeeAimee444
      @AimeeAimee444 Місяць тому +6

      So happy for you!
      I’d give artifacts to the museum as well.
      To protect history and insure it’s not placed in the wrong hands, gifting to your local historical society/museum is the way to go. 💯

      ​@rosegeaber7533 Do it! You won't regret it. Maybe get yourself a good entry metal detector like a simplex or a garrett, a pinpointer, a good shovel (black ada invader is good and cheap) and enjoy!

    Hey Brad. I’m from Winnipeg and I watch a lot of metal detecting videos. To be honest I’m tired of seeing people finding pull tabs and stuff. I started watching your videos and they are so interesting and the way you present them. Thank you for the history lessons. No parks,no cars, no junk,just fresh air and beautiful scenery and landscape. 👍🇨🇦

    Brad at 13:13 the metal tag. My grandfather worked in the iron mines of northern Minnesota and he had a tag similar to that one that was his employee tag. Great historical find. Love your videos.

  • @kiethhubbard27
    @kiethhubbard27 17 днів тому +1

    Enjoy the videos! I have dug and actually my first couple of large jobsites used tags like you dug. It was called “Brass Alley” and we would take our brass with our employee number on it in the morning. The timekeeper would then go in and whichever tags were still there would be the guys that did not show that day. During the day if we needed a “special” tool we would use our brass to check out the tool knowing we had to take the tool back before the end of the day to get the brass so that we could put our brass back in brass alley.

    As with a lot of remote locations, farms in early America , many families had multi generations living together , grandparent , parents , there children, and even the children’s children lived together mixing several generations and wearing items that were passed down until it wore out or was broken or its was lost, that would explain item for 17th and 18th century together , as you said in many or your video’s, these people were poor and couldn’t afford much. Even today many farms are passed down to their family members, being from Oklahoma I’ve seen it first hand. Love your videos.

    Another great video Brad. Lots of cool pieces of history. Mason found his first 2 cent piece on January 1 to start off this incredible year. Shoe buckle chape is my favorite, love how excited you get about shoe buckles still even though you have found so many. Definitely one of our favorite items to find too! Good luck on the next adventure and we are already looking forward to next Friday.

    Such a great lake hunt! Thanks for sharing, Brad! Your channel is #1 of the dozens of detecting channels I watch. Lakes are great places to explore. I have a lake near me with several old homesites going back to the original settlers in my area. Generations of finds laid on top of each other. Truly my best finds have come out at the lake. Many of the best are just lying on the shore. I have found 12 gold rings at that lake, all laying on the surface and not one was identified first with the metal detector. There are many thousands of pull tabs so sometimes just walking the shore is the most productive.

    The Hook and Spike is hammered into an overhead or vertical beam and you hang your lantern on it. The long scissors are Dressmaking Shears. Great finds. I remember you did a beach on a reservoir before, a great place to detect. Nice finds.

    I'd say your bit of jewelry at the end is more likely Art Deco or Art Nouveau than Victorian in style, so 1890s-1910 or so. Really nice! Maybe something from a lady's hat? Wonderful episode; out here in the Southwest you can pretty much expect sunken towns wherever we have reservoirs (and a lot of them were Native American, extremely old or recent) and there are some very stringent laws about metal-detecting around them; I'm glad you were able to check this one out-- you gave us a glimpse back into the past. :)

    Allot of finds Brad. Lakes are a great place to detect when the water drops. I have a lake close by that has several of gold mining town under it. But California has decided to not let anyone detect there as they’ve made everything over one hundred years old off limits. I guess the rangers have nothing better to do than hunt people down and take their equipment and finds. Of course there are no signs and they would rather the object rot away… John

    The design is definitely "Art Nouveau" which was only made for a short time before the art deco time period. Art Nouveau is from the end of the 1890s to approximately 1910. It is a beautiful peice and is most likely a pendant...

    Great video as usual...that 2 cent piece if it is 1864, could be quite valuable as it's the first year minted. There are large and small motto versions with the small being more rare,thus more valuable. Depending on conditions you have something worth $50 to $700...nice find!!😎👍
