    Out of the hospital and treating myself to binging Appalachian History Detectives. Crashed on my couch I have to tell you that casting my phone to the TV makes Appalachian History Detectives a whole new experience. Like watching a documentary on big screen. 🙄 Except instead of Sir David Attenborough & animals it's Todd and Appalachian History & amazing finds. I'll probably never watch it on my phone or computer again. Love the way you're insetting the cleaned up picture of some of your finds on the screen. This site was AWESOME!

    I have found with old house sites like this, there is a place where everyone got on and off a horse. At that place you will find a lot of flat buttons and maybe some coins. Pay especially attention to this place and dig the really iffy signals, because up until 1820 Spanish silver coins were used and a quarter cut reale is very small and can sound iffy. Getting on and off a horse pops off buttons and drops stuff out of pockets. Fun Fun!

    • @AppalachianHistoryDetectives
      @AppalachianHistoryDetectives  Рік тому

      Very interesting. What is perplexing about this site is there doesn't appear to be any road bed or flat area to park a wagon or buggy. This house, like the others I have found on this farm seems to have been built on hillsides versus the flat ground. I guess the flat ground is so sparse, they use it solely for cultivating. You bring up a great point though. I need to look for where they did arrive and disembark. Cheers and thanks!!

    • @AppalachianHistoryDetectives
      @AppalachianHistoryDetectives  Рік тому +1

      You know Rob, that was like my 1718 Spanish Cobb coin. When I dug it I thought it was a piece of aluminum. I didn't film it. I threw it in my trash bag and it was so small that when I threw away my trash, it was in the bottom with the dirt. when I emptied the dirt it fell out and it was then I saw what it was...welp...I'm so stupid....I may have tossed thimbles too honestly. I'm glad you found yours and have it safe now. Good to hear from you my friend.

      Yep. Bear Meat has little to no fat so the Chili has a different taste altogether. I lost first place by 3 votes...darn! Woke up this morning and the ground is covered in snow. Last week I went out and the ground was so frozen I had to throw in the towel and call the day. Yesterday I went out next to the river and it was still unfrozen and was able to have a pretty good day. I found an 1803 Draped Bust that looks like its new still.
