Brad, you made an important point when saying "it isn't worth much money". Treasure doesn't always equate to monetary value, and your finds today--especially the Vermont military button and the shoe buckle chape--are in my mind treasure.
I love seeing old things, they bring to mind history that should not be forgotten. History may not be worth much money but lessons learned are invaluable.
Brad, when you found the Brass Lever I immediately recognized it to be from a machine oiler. I have two of them here on my desk, made by the D.T. Williams Valve Co. Cincinnati Ohio, #2 Tacoma Oiler. The very Large lumber mill I worked 52 years ago for was throwing them away and replacing them with Plastic Oilers, go figure. At least I saved 2.
I look forward to your videos every week. You put so much time into your production and it shows! I really like the new additions of the lighting bolt design for the beeps and the slide showing the range from iron to silver. They add a lot to helping us, the viewer, understand what you hear. One thing that you've done for awhile now that always amazes me is the way you overlay the design as it should look over the relic in your hand. That takes time and skill and I think it's awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful hobby and the beauty of where you live by taking us along for the adventure!
Nothing like popping out an old coin, especially an old silver coin. Love the Vermont button as well. As always, thank you for taking us along on your adventures.
Nice assortment! On another note....7th generation! Awesome. I would encourage you to do a show digging into your family history! I would definitely enjoy that.
Gotta say, I’m really loving the new effects! The little starburst around the coil on the detector is lovely, and the bar showing what it’s ringing up as is really helpful!
Congrats on the Vermont Military button. Wow Barber half. It may be tarnished but the detail is very very nice. I couldn't help but hit that coin with silver polish. Awesome shoe buckle part. Many nice finds & yes please go back there.
As long as it is not rare and is only worth melt value, why not make it look as good as it can be? Clean it and maybe even wax it to stop future tarnish so that it displays well. After all of that is still has melt value, so why not?
What a bunch of great finds. That Vermont button is amazing! ☆ If you look closely at the flat end of the reeds, there should be the note of the reed... A#, C, etc.
I really like the graph at the top of the screen. Your additions and innovations, you've made to your videos over the years, are first in rate. I used to watch everyone's metal detection video I could find and though I still actively detect, yours is the only one I watch now. You do a fantastic job and those are great finds in today's video! Keep up the good work.
When you picked up that silver half dollar-wow!! First person to touch it in 100+- years!! I feel that way when I pick up an arrowhead/ Indian artifact from maybe thousands of years ago. You go!!!!
Very nice Hunt Brad. Congrats on your Vermont Military Button. Love the IHP and the piece of the Shoe Buckle. Congrats on the 1911 Barber Half Dollar. Out of all the Half Dollars I've found the Barbers are the most I've found. I've found 2 Seated 4 Walkers 2 Benjamin's 3 Kennedys. I've found 8 Barber Half Dollars. It is a great feeling when you find Big Silver. Love all your finds Brad. And I like the new special effects you have added to your videos. Take Care Brad
Pretty cool button! Scovill manufacturing was located in Waterbury, Connecticut and is in business today under the name Morito- Scovill Fasteners, located in Clarkesville, Georgia. I retired from Scovill in September 2022 after 43 years. Really enjoy your videos.
I like the new addition to the video effects. We use that type of oil dripper where i work. But we drip isopropyl alcohol on tangled wire. That button is so cool. I love local historical finds. Great day!
I love the metals gage that pops up at the top of the screen when you've detected something. Great way to make us feel even more like we're detecting with you! 😊
What a great day, Brad! You're absolutely right in your commentary of your finds, I hope you're able to go back and see what treasures are still to be found! Maybe some of the first coins ever minted! Good luck, keep digging, and I'll catch you on the next. ✌️ 😊
Brad, it has been awhile since I commented about your finds on a hunt. With an Indian Head cent, a Barber half dollar and a Vermont shield state button, you have found a trifecta of amazing treasures. While I certainly think highly of the two coin finds, I have to agree with you that the most amazing of your three treasures is the state seal button. I have never seen one before so it really stands out as the #1 treasure among todays finds. Congrats. Hope you get to go back to the site and add to your special finds in the near future.
Nice Vermont button. Congratulations on finding it and giving an honored home. Top shelf find indeed! Barber half dollar, nice find, year my dad was born, special to me.
The editing of your videos are so good . I’m in mass and do a little detecting myself. I have camped at almost every Vermont state park . Coolidge is the only one we still go to every year ash lean to every June . I can’t wait to hit some spots this year in VT
Nice finds I have a spot on the Ct river where I’ve found over 100 silver coins going back to a 1652 pine tree my friend found I have found over 10 halves silver I love detecting small beach areas I’ve had some of my best silver days 30+ silver coins in one spot halves on the surface Barbers
Congrats in the Vermont button! Big silver is always fun to find, but the history associated with the button is more fascinating. I hope you can get out there again soon!
Congratulations on all the amazing finds Brad. The Barber half is awesome. I've only ever found one half dollar and it's an 1894 O mint Barber that I found at an old country school sight 3 years ago here in Nebraska. Again Congratulations and can't wait for next week.
Enjoying the new highlights of the metal detector. And as always you videography of the surrounding areas is OUTSTANDING. Is photography you second hobby? Lol
Hey Brad, For me finding anything old yet identifiable is a good to great find. You having the knowledge that you posses about vintage items makes following your channel a delight. The Vlogs may be ok for some, but being out on the land where you find human history is why I am happy to find your latest post. Thank you for such great entertainment.
That was a good day, Brad. I expect you will find even more when you return. I have a connection to VT. I grew up in Rensselaer, NY but we had a summer cabin, built by my Great uncle, on North Hero Island.
Brad, thank you as always taking us along on your metal detecting journies. I look forward to them each week. I just love background music you use each and every time . I love added features of lighting bolts and sliding scale indicating the type of metal you've found . Thank you for your time and effort making videos. It shows. Im sure takes lot of time. Thank you for showing in words on screen what the item is, date range and finished find. Thank you for taking us along in Vermont metal detecting. Really neat finds again this week!!
Brad thank you for the show. Great find with the button and the barber half is a bucket lister for me. I'm so glad you were able to make a few good finds
Brad, please consider filming your conservation of the Vermont button. Amazing find. But would really like to see it after you have cleaned & waxed. Thank you!
What a joyous video! I always get to start my day smiling when I find your videos on my Friday morning list. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
The button and the half dollar are both exceptional finds. Congratulations!! You least consider maybe showing us some love f your collections on one of your winter vlogs. Thanks for your hard work on your videos.
Hey Brad My name's Paul I'm having metal detectress just watched your video have watched a couple in the past The Vermont button for sure is is a bang and fine along with that barber half dollar which you don't find many half dollars nowadays I can remember when I was young of course in the oh we'll just go late '70s early '80s and finding half dollars often but awesome finds and you know treasure is in the one who finds it have a good one man in your videos are really cool to watch you really get involved with it I love the way you you put your videos out Good job
Thank you Brad for the adventure , seeing beautiful scenery and some amazing finds especially the Vermont button , Barber Half Dollar and Shoe Buckle piece !
Great find Brad! I found a Canadian version of that barber half dollar. Was a 1910 and it came out black, but otherwise in great shape.... AND it was at a spot that was flooded in 1927 that had been around since the 1800's... just like you! That video drops in about a month... check it out if you can. Love from Canada!
A little staining, but the Barber half seems to have beautiful details, especially the front. This should look great in your display cabinet. Congratulations.
Congrats on that military button from Vermont...a GREAT TREAT for You!!! A really nice piece of silver too!!! MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!! 🙏🙏🙏🛐🛐

I work for a wire company, and we still use a form of oil dripper for isopropyl alcohol. Very cool
“Value” is defined by the person who possesses it. These treasures are prime examples. Thanks for another great video!
Chape, Vermont button and a ridiculously large Barber half dollar!! You can't really expect more in this type of hunt!! Congrats, Brad!
Hey BRAD!!! I had a blast today… thank you for taking us along. See
You soon!
Your KY❤FAN

So happy you found that silver 50 cent piece! What a great find!! 👍 Always fun to watch you finding all your little treasures! See ya next week! 😉
Nice assortment!
On another note....7th generation! Awesome.
I would encourage you to do a show digging into your family history! I would definitely enjoy that.
Brad I normally don't like long videos, but I wish yours were longer. Keep them coming.👍👍👍👍👍👍
Gotta say, I’m really loving the new effects! The little starburst around the coil on the detector is lovely, and the bar showing what it’s ringing up as is really helpful!

I found a 1908 barber quarter back in December; but a half!!??!! Killer find brother. Thanks for taking us along.
What a bunch of great finds. That Vermont button is amazing! ☆ If you look closely at the flat end of the reeds, there should be the note of the reed... A#, C, etc.
Oooh, that enhancement on the Vermont Button was very nice! Great find, congrats!
Beautiful area. Nice finds.
I really like the graph at the top of the screen. Your additions and innovations, you've made to your videos over the years, are first in rate. I used to watch everyone's metal detection video I could find and though I still actively detect, yours is the only one I watch now. You do a fantastic job and those are great finds in today's video! Keep up the good work.
The metal gauge at the top of the screen is a good addition. The lines coming from the detector when positioned over a signal, I could do without.
Really enjoy your videos. It makes the start of my Friday much better
When you picked up that silver half dollar-wow!!
First person to touch it in 100+- years!!

Amazing finds. And I enjoyed seeing you dig in the soft mud. So often you have to break up hard ground. I'd love to see another video from this spot.
Amazing finds. Thanks for sharing. I hope you get the opportunity to go back there again as I’m sure there’s more amazing things waiting to be found.

Great find Brad! I found a Canadian version of that barber half dollar. Was a 1910 and it came out black, but otherwise in great shape.... AND it was at a spot that was flooded in 1927 that had been around since the 1800's... just like you! That video drops in about a month... check it out if you can. Love from Canada!
Awesome finds. I was fortunate enough to find my 4th ever barber half 2 days ago. It definitely made my heart skip a beat.
Wicked Awesome day. I love all the new graphics; so much fun.
Hey Brad, congrats on that bucket lister. Diggin the tech upgrades to the channel. HH
We had a great winter on our dammed up old farm lake. Favorite place to dig. Nice finds.
Well worth making as many trips possible before the level raises up and hides the ground again. Great hunt Brad.
A little staining, but the Barber half seems to have beautiful details, especially the front. This should look great in your display cabinet. Congratulations.
Woohoo! Awesome finds! Thanks for the peek over your shoulder while you dig em!
Great hunt. The finds ate incredible.✌❤
Brad how about a video of your favorite finds. Would love to see your collection! Love your channel!
Congrats on that military button from Vermont...a GREAT TREAT for You!!!
A really nice piece of silver too!!!
MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!!
🙏🙏🙏🛐🛐
Great video and really nice finds.
Nice barber half very cool. Looks like a good bit of detail still left 👍
