Thank you for sharing Jesus with all of us, very encouraging. Also, thanks for showing us all the other junk you have to dig to get to the good stuff. Helps to know it is what has to happen to finally get the good stuff!
Thanks for a fascinating, interesting, exciting youtube channel that I can watch with my grandsons. Your channel's videos & language are superior entertainment. Your mom & dad should be bursting with pride knowing what a great young man they raised. Merry Christmas to you & your family. ♡
I was born on a dairy farm in 60. Dad and Grandpa used those cow tags back in 50-60's. By 70's folks were using plastics, and piercing cattle ears instead of having them wear the chain necklace and tags. So, at least 60 years old for sure.
I've been being watching your videos for hours now..& enjoying them immensely ! The little dish w/ rose on it & the big old knife was my favorite finds.. Keep up the good work & be careful.
Hey Michael. You should make that spoon handle into a key chain. Guys who make spoon rings could help you. They have the correct equipment to do it. I think that would be nice. Good hunt.
wow, your own initials on the spoon.....all awesome finds......cow tag numbers could be interesting on a lottery ticket!! I really enjoy your videos..., thank you. Just got my first metal detector...it is a Garrett AT Pro. Used it for the first time in my yard. The house was built in 1921. In the first few minutes we found some old coins, nails, pull tabs and such, even found a tiny piece of foil off a gum wrapper. Years ago after a rain I eyeballed a clay marble in my backyard and the area i live in had civil war encampments but they saw no action. Whatever I find I am sure it will be enjoyable . Thanks for being an inspiration.
Those cow tags are pretty cool, especially if you get a number that means something to you. How cool is it that the spoon had your initials... things that make you go hmmm.
Where were you at in this video ? I'm in Kansas . Wasn't bad today but yesterday and the day before we had winds up to 60 mph and cold . No snow yet . Keep the videos coming as I love watching them !
The hammer head is actually a blacksmith's hammer. Look at the heads. One side is more rounded than the other. This is a blacksmith's rounding hammer. The other side is the flatter. There is another hammer head next to that big thing you called "A Spike." That is NOT a spike as you presume. It's actually a punch, another blacksmith tool for punching holes in hot steel. It might actually be a drift. Or it could also be a riveting tool. It looks like you may have actually come across a blacksmith's shop with some of the tools still onsite. I'm sure if you found and searched that location again, there is a slight chance you would find the anvil used by the smithy. It could be that the smithing tools you found were from a Ferrier, someone who shoes horses. That small hammer is actually a shoeing tack hammer if I'm not mistaken, used to drive the spikes into the horse's hoof when fitting the shoe in place. Those are a much better finds than you know... Thanks for the nice videos.
Good video buddy. Hope to see you in the NH next hunt. Butch and I are researching some private spots already. Give us a call if you want to come on the podcast again some time. - Heath.
You found a really eclectic mix from just about all areas of detecting. Oh and the spoon is mine... it's got My Babyspoon engraved on it 😂✌ Thanks for the video. God bless.
Maybe a rustler hustled himself a beef and butchered it near the creek. Desperate times...maybe those three cattle tags are for the ones he ate...? At least until he lost his knife.
Really nice finds. If I could find something other than rust or broken, I'd be happy. License plate is prob. souvenir from gift shop for a kids bicycle.
I'm thinking that knife hasn't been there too long. The blade looked like mostly stainless steel. Looking at the oxidation on it, maybe a couple years at best. Yes it did have a little rust on it, but even cheap stainless will rust if exposed to long. Great find though :)
I really enjoy going long on your hunting adventures. It is so exciting to see what you will dig up next. I bet you have a hard time getting your clothes clean. This is a dirty hobby.
Thank you for sharing Jesus with all of us, very encouraging. Also, thanks for showing us all the other junk you have to dig to get to the good stuff. Helps to know it is what has to happen to finally get the good stuff!
Those round tags with a nail hole in the middle are from Telephone or Telegraph poles.
Thank You Mat for all the hard work on your channel so we can come with you on your hunts .
I enjoy you videos, and I really appreciate the scriptures. I'm a digging pastor myself. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for a fascinating, interesting, exciting youtube channel that I can watch with my grandsons. Your channel's videos & language are superior entertainment. Your mom & dad should be bursting with pride knowing what a great young man they raised. Merry Christmas to you & your family. ♡
I love watching your videos. Seems like such an interesting hobby.
The dig at time marker 8:11 looks like it could be a decorative piece for a bridle or for some kind of horse tack ! Nice
Another good video. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us.
And God bless you sir. I appreciate your spirit. Keep on keeping on!
You should think about auctioning off some of your finds so your fans can enjoy them also. It would also help to fund your outings.
Thanks for taking me with. Merry Christmas and Blessings for you all!
Always a pleasure watching your videos
Nice finds Nugget. Always cool to find something with initials on it - even more so when they are yours!
Nice hunt! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas Nugg!
Looked like a very cold hunt, Nugget. Loved the video. Keep them coming.
Nuggetnoggin I love your vids so much thank you for entertaining me everyday. God bless

Wow good hunt, but chilly... Keep warm! ❄🕸🌟😊🐾
I'm so glad I came upon your channel. I am enjoying your adventures immensely. THank You
Cool, glad you found my channel. I will keep the videos coming!
Knot head noggin is always fascinating- you never know !
That knife was spooky and likely a weapon of an mysterious murder!

Another great video! Thanks and God bless!
Great hunt! That placed looked beautiful in the snow!
Crocodile Dundee might even call that a knife. Nice hunt, thanks for sharing and God Bless.
Another very enjoyable video Michael
Those cow tags are pretty cool, especially if you get a number that means something to you. How cool is it that the spoon had your initials... things that make you go hmmm.
Here's an idea for those cow tags -- make a wind chime with them. Also, use the numbers for a lottery ticket.

UA-camrs when they find a butter knife : MURDER WEAPON FOUND COPS CALLED KILLER DUMPED.
Nuggetnoggin: odd finds in creek!
The little clear bottle was cool . Cheers
Wow, way to go! Love getting bottles as a surprise!!!
Always enjoy your videos, very interesting fines. The license plate definitely was for a bicycle. Great 👍🏻 job. Merry Christmas ~ Texas
Love your videos!
Love watching so keep them coming 👍
That's the great thing about those organized hunts, you just never know what you might pull out of the ground.
That piece of iron looked like an ox shoe ! From what I have seen from other people's videos . If so that would date that place pretty old good find !
81 cow tag, I have a few from 50s, ranchers used a chain around neck with tag attached to it.
Gratz on 700k Subscribers! Road to 1 MILL!!!
true to the hunt just like fisherman and hunter out in the snow lol
Hi Michael. Would you mind doing a video on how you clean some of you finds. Thank you so much
Awesome finds NN missed watching your videos keep at it!
Oh I forgot ... I got around editing that video from VA from 2016. You giving Butch lessons on camera work taking the cap off is priceless.
Where did the little bottle and little dish go?
Lesa Wright Mandela effect
What a lovely sunny blue sky day...!!!🏞🌄🌞👍
Looked like a hard time in the Cold. Sometimes it is going to be a great day though
Hey, in your wrap up, where did the little bottle go???
Lol, I was thinking the same JThreeB. Came to the comments to see if I was the only one. Keep riding that bike young Jedi. Take care.
HA!
that was the best find!
I was also wondering where the little bottle was and the porcelain dish.
How do you clean out bottles like that i cant get the hard water stains out any suggestions tried vinegar, etc?
Where were you at in this video ? I'm in Kansas . Wasn't bad today but yesterday and the day before we had winds up to 60 mph and cold . No snow yet . Keep the videos coming as I love watching them !
I need that spoon handle it has my initials on it lol awesome video
Quite a variety of finds
10:11 nice finds
The plate that has Patricia on it was sold by tourist traps at the beach and places like that.
Looks like an ashtray the dish you found at time mark 2:20 .
Interesting as usual, thanks for sharing your adventures. Ray, Oklahoma
That's a big knife...nice finds buddy..
Just got my NN t-shirt. Great love it.
Butchering them cows that belonged to them tags. LOL
Ya found the O.J. knife, finally evidence!
Send some of that snow my way....❄️😊

Cold! When it's 35 in Wisconsin, we wear shorts.
Good video buddy. Hope to see you in the NH next hunt. Butch and I are researching some private spots already. Give us a call if you want to come on the podcast again some time. - Heath.
that last bullet is out of a Gatlin gun.....its not in one...heeeehawww gotcha...nice winter hunt
I wouldn't have picked up that knife without gloves. I'm getting this murder weapon vibe off it.
Huge Congratulations On 700K Subscribers.
You found a really eclectic mix from just about all areas of detecting. Oh and the spoon is mine... it's got My Babyspoon engraved on it 😂✌ Thanks for the video. God bless.
Good haul buddy
Knife = Murder weapon.
That's what I was thinking evidence thrown away.
I was thinking the same thing. Especially not being close to any homes.
Throw evidence to murder?
Your initials on the spoon. Divine intervention?? Nice hunt!
One time I found a civil war button off a uniform in my backyard
The iron spike could have been a surveying lot corner
I’ve watched you since u had a couple 100 subscribers now u have 700k congratulations!!!
That little dish is even cool. It is pre WW2. If it just says japan it is pre war.....that is a cool find
Creek finds are allways neat
does the snow effect your signal
Curious about the dates of the wheat pennies and the coke bottle may have a date on the bottom?
Maybe a rustler hustled himself a beef and butchered it near the creek. Desperate times...maybe those three cattle tags are for the ones he ate...? At least until he lost his knife.
sounds like a case for x factor to me :D
lmao! Oh my I love your imagination. Mine went to a darker place.
Sounds like you have a shining career in movies product, why you don't try your luck? 😎
That explains the sledgehammer too!
No not you bud. They were (are) used for dispatching cattle.
Thanks for your video. Love it.👍
I really think at the end of the video you sould have pictures of them all cleaned up
I would be worried that was a ditched murder weapon!
Where I'm from cloudy skies like that is a beautiful day
Really nice finds. If I could find something other than rust or broken, I'd be happy. License plate is prob. souvenir from gift shop for a kids bicycle.
My first thought about a knife in the woods is maybe somebody needed to gut a deer.
Where is the little square shaped bottle and the small dish?
The item you found and mentioned it might be a tree tag. It could be a property marker.
Now that's a classic looking murder knife found ditched in a creek.
i live in a country home built in 1800, i need to get a metal detector! Enjoy your videos!! i like seeing the scriptures too!!
neat. what happened to the little square bottle?
You can make belt buckles out of the cow tags.
Whether or not you get real good finds, the good thing about what your doing is you clean the ground of junk!
I'm thinking that knife hasn't been there too long. The blade looked like mostly stainless steel. Looking at the oxidation on it, maybe a couple years at best. Yes it did have a little rust on it, but even cheap stainless will rust if exposed to long. Great find though :)
I really enjoy going long on your hunting adventures. It is so exciting to see what you will dig up next. I bet you have a hard time getting your clothes clean. This is a dirty hobby.
I was wondering how you got those jeans clean
I love the video and nice finds
Aquachigger was out there too I believe.
I seen him....green jacket🤣🤣
