These long videos sure help me forget my disability at least for while. Thank you so much.
This guy is like the bob ross of metal detection!
Luke Bamford haha I came to make the same comment
Thank you for saving the Tortoise, you're awesome chigg!
It’s so great that you know the history of the relics you find and can identify most of them, even in the shape they’re in..I love that you saved the turtle! You’re awesome Chigg!!!
Impressive is an understatement. In 2 days you've found more than most will find in a lifetime. I want to see MOAR!
Hi Chig, I am watching this video for the 3rd time. Both parts. I LOVE your adventures and feel honored to get to come along. You find some of the most amazing treasure everywhere you go. I learn a lot from your stories and I also like that your wife comes along on some of your explorations. She's your perfect partner for sure. The episode in the cave was so interesting. Keep up the good work! Thank you for being another caring soul about our early history and the men who served to protect our freedom. I think of those men every time you make a find. There's always a story, a life and a part of that story we can only guess at. Bless the families who lost loved ones in every battle we've fought. Thank YOU for your service as well! Stay safe and keep finding those great finds. Happy hunting!
Only Beau would find so much awesome stuff that he has to leave a musket to come back to! Thanks for the extra long adventures they've been interesting!
Congratulations on the James and the other munitions, outstanding. Saving history one relics at a time. Loved watching and learning about each relic.
"Should we dig it up?" of course!! we should ALWAYS dig it up!
Un- believable, unbelievable, unbelievable!!!!!!! One of these days you're going to find an entire cannon!
I just commented on the last video that I couldn't wait for this one and viola! Here it is!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
yay! same here!
Me tooooooo ;)
A lifetime of finds in 2 days.. awesome
Great haul! That musket is sweet. And so much unexploded ordnance. The fuse on that one ball is well preserved. I had no idea so many failed to explode. Congrats!
I'd have to say these two videos are prob my favorite so far plus we got to see you find your first James, can't wait to see that all cleaned up . The Chigg-miz-ster RULES !!!! LOL
You're amazing. I couldn't have slept knowing I'd left a musket and a few shells. Another great, timeless adventure.
I'm 12 and aquachigger is my honest hero in my spare time I hunt a victorian bottle dump
Love your videos and the running commentary you provide is pricless.
At times I feel envious of the discoveries you make, but by the same token here in Australia we never had to endure the tradgedy of Civil War.
keep up the good work! If I can't do it myself doing it vicariously through you is a great substitute!😀
That funny looking horse shoe is called an "egg bar" horse shoe. They are used on horses that have low or collapsed heels and are designed to give a horse's hoof lateral support.
That first cannonball with the amazing fuse was a great find. Nice job.
if you could hear me clapping you'd know how much I loved these two videos........bravo....what an awesome find. And your first one of a kind too...how awesome we were with you. Thank you for sharing this....excellent....(as you say)
I like the way you bring the viewers into the action and your knowledge is remarkable
I can picture in my head a soldier heading to the bank of that stream as he rammed the last bullet into his rifle when a borman shell explodes killing him and smashing his rifle. sad but it did happen. good hunt beau.
I prefer the soldier just decided to go go home to mom, stuck his barrel between a split tree, gave it a yank and tossed the darn thing in the creek. Unarmed you have a change being taken prisoner. Armed with a thing like that, no questions are being asked on whether it's loaded or anything.
It was cocked and with a percussion cap. It was ready to fire. Which you only do right before wanting to use it. The guy most likely charged and miscalculated the distance between some trees, getting it snagged or stumbled and fell on it. Or got shot and fell on it.
DerLaCroix1 Story sux bro. Not saying you're wrong of course.
In 200 years there will be dudes with ground scanners with imagery as an app on their cell phones of course. They will be finding stuff from our next civil war :)
Greg Appelgren We find actual money, being silver and gold. They'll find silicone chips from out creditcards. If it's useless in 200 years, why want it now?
Get that musket! I've been waiting for this vid all day at work!
Haha!! I've been thinking about it too. I'm excited!
Me too
me too! lol!
Me as well - and Beau is such a teaser !
why did they wrap them around trees?
You are too funny. You're like a kid when you find something, I love it!!
I would be too with an average of $150 a shell....
Wow, for a dud that's been in the Earth so long? :-)
If some many are found in creeks, how many are in fields? Or did the creeks cause it to not explode on impact?
Awesome video can't wait to see that James shell cleaned up. I stopped by my towns archives today to start some research tons of revolutionary war stuff happened here.
Thankyou for saving that turtle. This was an awesome video lots of great finds!
Hi Beau! You've totally inspired me to get into metal detecting when I get closer to retiring. My husband and I have kayaks and will be exploring our local creeks and rivers here in Northern California. We probably won't have near the old historical finds- but treasure is treasure.
I see you find a lot of horseshoes and I hope the following info helps you:
1. Those round horseshoes are called "egg bar" shoes (Outside of the U.S.- oval shoes, moons shoes... ). You are correct, they are a therapeutic shoe most commonly used for heel support and equine navicular-type lamenesses. But they have other types of applications.
2. Round shoes with a bar down the middle are called Heart Bar and are also a therapeutic shoe for varied equine lameness.
3. The single shoes you find with all the nails in them are not (always) off a dead horse. Horses lose shoes all the time and when it happens the nails are pulled through the hoof wall and often left complete, nails and all. Shoes with no nails in them are often pulled by a human. But they can also be pulled off accidentally by the horse and the nails have simply fallen out or rotted out.
4. The angular bending technique you see in the end of the nails are called clinching. It is how the farrier keeps the shoe in the hoof.
5. The front feet on a horse is more often rounder than hind feet, which are more oval. The shoes will reflect these shapes and that is why you'll find rounder shaped or more oval shapes. The long narrow shoes are often off of mules and donkeys (etc).
Happy hunting!
U seem to kno a great deal on shoes pretty cool to read
very very awesome day! and we can watch it over and over and over ...forever!
Wooow that cannon ball that was deffective is gorgeous and in such a good condition!!
Congratulations on the James Shell! What a two day hunt. You are definitely blessed.
great finds beau. WELL DONE on your musket and your James shell can't wait to see it clean
Amazing hunt...thank you for videoing, makes me hungry to dig MOAR!
Awesome finds on this outing. I never new it could be so interesting to watch someone search for old war relics. Love your videos and your great personality. Cant wait for the next vid, cheers from Oregon.
Very happy for you,Finding that James must have made your day at least.Couldn't have come to a more deserving guy. Bless you My Friend!
Excellant finds ! I love watching your adventures !
love metal detecting with you . i have learned so much about everything interesting . keep it up
very impressive for sure !! and i thought the same when i first saw that fuse ... BEAUTIFUL !!
The musket with the bent barrel ... this was typically what was done to muskets to prevent their reuse once captured. A large fire was built and the muskets were placed into it and when hot enough bent around a tree. Great find ..... and a great place to metal detect. Keep hunting that creek and on the flats out from the creek banks. There is a lot more to be found there. One thing for sure no one else has metal detected where your at.
Wow! What a great 2days of relic hunting. Congrats, and thanks for sharing your videos!
Amazing finds! Seriously awesome. Great job!
Do you have a detector? In you're line of work 2 birds 1 stone.. rototiller/metal detector.
Idea for a new video 😉
Amazing, finds of a lifetime in two days! Very cool, looking forward to seeing them cleaned up! Thanks for sharing...
Okay I cannot be the only one that finds this so exciting!
Amazing how well preserved the fuse on that cannon ball was! Spectacular finds!
I like the fact that your reading about some of these places and able to actually find things backin up what ya read.great video beau thanks for sharing.
Awesome finds today! That first slick cannonball really excited me when I saw how clean it was while still underwater
Fantastic to watch and see and learn. Hope you're out for more days at this spot!! Good luck.
really liked the smile on your face when you were ready to pull up that james...... sooo much excitement in your face....
Man. i cant wait to see what the James looks like all cleaned up. awesome finds Chiggs. Keep up the golden vids man!!
Aww what a cute turtle, good thing for him you came along.
great video! I enjoy when you find the odd and unique stuff like the James and orthopedic horse shoe.
The big turtle in the Godzilla flicks was Gamera.
Now I can sleep better knowing you went back and got the musket...lol!!! Congrats on finding the James!!! That is really cool!! My favorite is the munitions plate.
Congrats Beau! Amazing finds! I can't wait to see those shells cleaned up!
Amazing finds will have to get the kayak and start searching some rivers and creeks for relics great video !
Chigg your videos are off the chart. WOW! what a stellar day for you. Your narration is A+. Keep up the good work.
Wow, this is a bucket list find of mine. Beautiful find!
Well Done Beau! Amazing finds there. My personal fave is the musket, a genuine piece of history.
Keep it up, you have quite a few UK followers!
Great finds!!,those cannon balls are in great condition can't wait too see that James birdcage shell cleaned up.. Cheer's..
Awesome finds! A little bit of everything regarding the Civil War. You certainly have the knack and talent to locate these items.
Outstanding ! As usual. Great stuff
Thanks for takin us along
wow those were some amazing finds!! Great video, thank you for sharing :)
Amazing!!! All those things in such a small area, after all these years. Must not have been a well known skirmish. Great day!
Nice haul!!!....Congrats on the James, well done!!!
AWESOME!!! congrats chigg! amazing shells! The Borman ball has that beautiful fuse, but the James defiantly takes the cake!!!
Incredible!! What a high!! I've got several small skirmish sites pinpointed, but they're only several hundred men usually in our area. but some did have cannon, so who knows, I HAVE to hit the water again soon. Thanks for the years of inspiration Beau. Best wishes, Chris
Great couple of videos Beau nice treat a whole hour and a half, awesome finds congratulations and just in two days, thanks really enjoyed it. hope your well. G
Congratulations on the James shell! the musket is amazing too, but that was a beautiful fuse on the ball. great video buddy!
Wow, epic couple of days! I really like these long videos too. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely amazing Chigg, just amazing!
Great Finds
Bo Glad You Got Your First James Shell and the Musket Rifle was Super Cool
You did Good Fella !
There was a large (60 pound) James shell that turned up at a local foundry during a WWII metal drive. I have personally laid eyes on this shell. The foundry never attempted to melt it down for obvious reasons, but instead kept it sitting on a brick wall for over 50 years. When I last saw it the owner was trying to unscrew the fuse on it which we quickly dissuaded him from doing.
Chigg, you are truly blessed with such a great wealth of artefacts. Thanks for sharing what I think is one of your best videos yet. That musket with so much of the wood preserved....woah!
I so wish that I could go along with you on the search! It looks like so much fun! Keep the videos coming!
Amazing finds. Way to find and preserve pieces of history.
Wow great finds! Watching your videos makes me want to get into metal detecting.
Excellent Great Hope You Find MOAR !! GL&HH ☺
Awesome finds, as always, thanks for sharing. 😁
Unreal. I can't believe I have not seen this video yet. I have been watching for awhile now and thought I saw them all. Anyway just thought I'd let you know I am a big fan. I am a collector and living history guy from NY but have never been digging in my life. I am also a huge fan of watching you with all of the critters! Cheers, Rob
Holy WOW BATMAN!!!
Very impressive. Gives me something to aim for although I live in Manchester UK and I don't think i would find anything like your finds. I'll get looking. Thanks for another great video.
Great Video...Thanks for sharing! Happy Hunting!
The musket is for shooting around corners. LOL .Very impressed with all the items you found.
Bea,thats an egg bar shoe,i was a blacksmith/farrier before my back gave out. used on foundered horses to take pressure of the boney column.
Can't wait to see these finds after they been cleaned up and polished.
I like when Beau takes us under water.
+Aquachigger even the bubbling noise the camera makes. I thought the muffled voice after an underwater shot was water in the mic but you have said it's your glove covering the mic. I always enjoy your adventures.
Nice finds .Congrats on your bucket list find.
Congrats on the James. I thank the musket being bent just makes it even cooler.
Congrats on the james shell,impressive haul bud.cant wait to see the shell cleaned up...
That's not a horse shoe - it's a halo sent by the turtle you saved - St. Beau. What a two day hunt, incredible finds, well done.
Awesome finds! That James is a beauty, very different! I was so excited for you! Love your vlogs!
EARTH ANGEL. WOW!!! SUCH NICE FINDS FOR A SMALL SKIRMISH AREA!!! I GUESS THAT THE JAMES BIRD CAGE SHELL MUST HAVE MADE YOUR DAY?!!!!ALSO THE MUSKET! CONGRATS ON AGOOD HAUL FROM THE STREAM! THANK YOU FOR SHARING
So glad its warm again!

I found a musket in my step dads friends woods completely attached with the ram rod
Wow! Great find...
wow!!! amazing finds!!!!!! I just love your videos. and am proud to say I've seen every one!!
I can't wait for the next one!
Have a great day Beau!!!
That is a great find it looks like a 1842 Springfield . That sure looks like one looking at the barrel bands. Very nice shells and cannon balls. Congratulations I enjoyed the hunt.
think its a 1845
I think it is 1830 or 40
It would have the nipple on top of the barrel if it was a earlier conversion. That one has bolster on the barrel for the nipple.
oh ok sorry
it did
these are my fave chig vids, at the river mid summer!
Great job Aquqchigger, i always follow your adventures from Buenos Aires.
Im a detectorist since 1983... Keep on watching your videos.
Best regards Mariano.
Very impressive Beau. No mater where you go you come out with good stuff. Congrats.
