One of your best hunts, I’m always floored by the vast history of early America the popularity of detecting videos is bringing out the fact that history isn’t boring it’s actually creating more interest in a culture that has amnesia.
Brad...I just wanted to tell you how much I truly enjoy your channel. Your videos are amazing, and my 6 year old little girl loves them just as much as I do. I've been a detectorist for several years myself, and I'm inspired every time I watch. Keep up the tremendous work!
Hey Brad, My name is Rick. I love watching your videos, I've been Detecting for about 45 years, Love the hobby. Keep up the good work your videos are refreshing and different from most of the others out there, thank you for what you do. God Bless you and your family.
Absolutely one of my favorite channels. It can be a tough and grueling hobby but the possibilities of finding things like these make it worth the effort. Great stuff, guys.
Ok.. got some more advice for you. Take a cup of Iso ..add a teaspoon of neem oil, throw in 10 drops or citronella eucalyptus EO, 3 drops of peppermint EO and 5 drops of eucalyptus EO. Put it in a spray bottle and give it a good shake before you use it. Bug free for quite a bit. You'll have to reapply as you sweat, and anywhere you miss will get bugs, but it works better than 'OFF.
Outstanding discoveries. Perseverance pays of again. Way to hang in there gentlemen. Beautiful scenery and enjoyable commentary. Thanks for sharing and we’ll see you on the next.
loved the area- The more trees and farther off the main path the better...I will often follow game trails deep into the woods to find that glory spot we all desire..have found 7 cabins this year from the 1800's.....Thanks for sharing........Dig,Dig,Dig
WOW Brad & Eddie ! ! Your second site and the people who lived there, during the date spread of your finds, were witness to some truly amazing history. So my friends, A fictional story is in order, which could of been ! In the early 1730s, upon their arrival in Boston, the Dunham and McDougle families, heard of Lands being granted to the north by the British Governor of the New Hampshire Colony. Moving north they petitioned for and were granted land at the southern end of what was known as the Green Mountains. They moved with their belongings and live stock by oxen cart and wagon on a very hard journey. They established their farms on the site you now hunt, in this video. During the, almost 100 years, of family history at those farms, generations of those early families spread out into the local area. They became witness to the troubles between the French with their native population allies. and the British. They heard of the building of the French Fort and subsequent battles of the 7 years war. They then resisted the encroachment of New York Settlers on to their lands. Subsequently they heard of the problems in Boston with the British Crown and the beginnings of the protest that became the American Revolutionary War. They watched and participated in the establishment of the Republic of Vermont, and then the admittance of Vermont as the 14th State of the fledgling United States of America. During all those times Dunham and McDougle family members were active participants in the many battles of that period. In the early 1800s, The families, being fed up with the bugs, LOL , and the hard life in Southern Vermont. decided to Move west, So, in 1828 most of the decedent generations of the original Dunham and McDougle families, packed their belonging and left their Vermont Farms in the western movement known as Manifest Destiny. They Headed to Albany, New York and boarded canal boats, where they were pulled west by a mule named Sal on the Erie Canal. They found themselves in the Great Lakes region and points beyond, and into the saga that is United States History. :-))
Hey fellas. Half water half white vinegar, spray bottle. Takes the itch away instantly. Used this all summer. Got some land in Vt. Love this state. Great vids. Thanks.
I'm never ceased to be amazed that you can sink a shovel into such soft soil. Looks like wonderful layers of decomposition of leaves,plants, and wood debris. Where I live your shovel would most likely hit limestone bedrock! Great finds. Enjoyed the video.
More and Higher percentage DEET ! I love your No Nonsensitive, Informative presentations and No Rah - Rah Si Boom Bah like most other Metal detecting videos. You make watching your videos a pleasure !
Enjoyed the 2 guys from Green who were metal detecting in the bush full of bugs. They found a few old coins and a couple old buttons. Good clear voices. Thks😀
Nice joint adventure with good finds for both you and Eddie! That piece of jewelry looks masculine to me - maybe a chain for a pocket watch. Good for you Brad in finding that piece of Spanish silver - amazing!! The musical score accompanying that find is worth noting! As always, thanks for sharing!
I really enjoy watching your videos! Nugget Noggin was my number 1 detector on UA-cam but I just recently found your channel! Nugget Noggin is now my second favorite detector. Need I say more... I look forward for each video.🙋💰💰👍🙌
Dude, Love your videos! You seem like a good dude with your heart in the right place with good intentions. Love the videos and the friendly content. You seem like a chill guy to have a beer by the fire with. Keep Posting!!!
Great find! You and Aquachigger are definitely my favourite Metal Detectorists. Thank you for the videos, keep them coming! Best regards from the UK! :D
That indeed was a true morel.The true morel has a top that that attaches to the stem.The false morel which is poison resembles a umbrella where it attaches to the stem.You past up a tasty shroom there.If you find one there are usually more of them as they typically grow in small patches.Slice them long ways soak them in water with a bit of salt to make sure they are bug free for a bit.Some butter and some drakes fry mix in a skillet and you won't be passing those up ever again!
Great fines as always.You should go back to the second spot and work it over some more, but remember to bring the bug spay. I loved the opening shot with the tree with the hole in it.
Great video Brad, you guys really toughed it out with the bugs! I don't know if I could have but you made it all worth it! Excellent finds! Love how you compile the vid's too. Great mix of detecting, explaining and nature shots. Keep up the awesome work!
Hey mate. I've watched a few of your videos and I'm enjoying them all. One thing though, I know nothing about Vt. Would love to hear more on the local history as you're going along. Even the few tidbits you pick up along the way would be great. Keep on keeping one!
Watching this before bedtime and every time I started to yawn, I clamped my jaw to avoid swallowing bugs, 😝. Hope next time, no bugs, but what a day for coins!
Dirtflicker ❤️I agree. They seem like great guys. I love watching these guys and Hans from Germany. I think his channel is Terra Germane- something like that.
Well...nothing short of a hazmat suit would have spared u from that bug onslaught...yet u persevered and got your treasure reward...AWESOME SILVER. Kudos!!!! Wooohoooo!
Now, this is my kind of metal detecting! Setting here in the AC watching the two of you swat bugs. I always enjoy seeing the two you working the woods. Very nice finds and congratulations of the silver. Well done.
Hey Brad and Eddie! Amazing finds for both of you! Really enjoyed the video. My life is in Tennessee right now, but my heart is in the woods of the north. I'd love to come up there and hunt with you guys sometime. :)
I will definitely let you know if I'm ever in your area! In the future I do plan on spending a lot of time up north now that my life it settling down. I found a dateless KGII copper here in NE Tennessee late last year. I was stoked. About the oldest coin you can find here. Before that, my oldest find was a slick, dateless large cent (either Matron or Coronet) I'm closer to VA now, so I'm gradually starting to find more early to mid 1800's stuff. I guess the main benefit of my area is the rich civil war history. Anyhow, take care and keep the awesome videos coming!
We have barely any CW artifacts out this way, except for what may have been brought home by vets, so a trip down south is definitely something I would like to do as well! Thanks again!
What a fabulous video! Congratulations on your treasure finds!!! You really made a big sacrifice to pull it off. No pain, no gain 😉💕. Thanks for making these family friendly videos. God Bless and Happy Hunting!
Hey Brad, excellent hunt! Congrats on all the coins! 12:30 That stuff that resembles candy is an amoeba-like growth called Wolf's Milk or "toothpaste slime".
Wowo, guys! Killer day! Super congrats on the 1 reale Spanish coin! Good job braving the bugs. That's not ever easy to do when they are that thick, but worth it when there is 1700s Spanish silver as a reward!
12:20 The 'pink nerds candy' is a slime mold. Quite fascinating actually, the mold sends out feelers to find it's new batch of food, almost in a sentient manor.
Awesome find, 1739 Spanish Colonial coin, (M) Manuel De Leon - 91.7 % silver. The hole in it suggests that it was attached to a neck band and worn as jewelry. It probably fell off and was lost until you dug it up hundreds of years later. It’s worth at least a couple hundred $’s in that condition.
One of your best hunts, I’m always floored by the vast history of early America the popularity of detecting videos is bringing out the fact that history isn’t boring it’s actually creating more interest in a culture that has amnesia.
Hanging out with Eddie is always a great day!

Incredible....thanks for taking us with you.
Absolutely one of my favorite channels. It can be a tough and grueling hobby but the possibilities of finding things like these make it worth the effort. Great stuff, guys.
So glad to hear that, Steven!
Always looking forward to the next video. I especially like it when Eddie comes along as well. Congratulations to both of you on excellent finds.

It’s nice watching a video on something positive such as this instead of videos of violence and addiction
Thank you
Don Dressel Metal Detecting and Green Mountain Videos are ADDICTIVE. ;)
It's simple, just stop watching violent, addiction videos.
Yeah, but it looks like those bugs were doing some pretty good violence to both Brad and Eddie. LOL
Don Dressel Z
Brad, great job once again. Thanks again for sharing your part of New England ,and it’s history. Keep up the good work. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
You have a knack for showing wonderful natural beauty of the forest and keeping the excitement going about your finds👍
Outstanding discoveries. Perseverance pays of again. Way to hang in there gentlemen. Beautiful scenery and enjoyable commentary. Thanks for sharing and we’ll see you on the next.
Thanks for watching Jay!
Best channel on youtube. Thanks for braving the swarm of bugs and giving us another cool adventure.
Wow thanks so much!

I was just watching Who Wants to be a Millionaire and learned Vermont used to b called New Connecticut.
Haha I love it! Perfect!
A wonderful story. Most likely went just as you stated and it's quite obvious that those early settlers did not take their bugs with them. LOL
That's the NEW nickname!!! (Sadly!)
Wow Great history lesson, thanks
My kids were laughing at Eddie on this one. We enjoyed it a lot. Keep up the good work!
Haha thanks!
You guys never disappoint! Omg the sites you find! The history! WONDERFUL!!! Keep at it! Upload!
Thanks Jan!!
Hey fellas. Half water half white vinegar, spray bottle. Takes the itch away instantly. Used this all summer. Got some land in Vt. Love this state. Great vids. Thanks.
Hey. Love your videos. My daughter and I started metal detecting this year and love it. Keep up the good diggings 👍
Just great material shared here and thanks for that. Greetings from WW2Historyhunter.
Thanks again!
What a great video and what a great effort you and Eddie made to bring it to us...great finds and thank you!
I'm never ceased to be amazed that you can sink a shovel into such soft soil. Looks like wonderful layers of decomposition of leaves,plants, and wood debris. Where I live your shovel would most likely hit limestone bedrock!
Great finds. Enjoyed the video.
That is super cool. I was excited just watching this. Looking forward to next Friday's video.
Congrats on the silver find! Those pink blobs are called wolf's milk, a slime mold and that was a lovely morel. Looking forward to the next adventure!
Thanks for the info Jody!
I love waking up in Friday mornings and watching your videos!
That’s so great to hear Aaron!!
I think the "Bracelet" you found could be a Curb Bit on a Horse Bridle, obviously on a highly-ranked horse soldier or commander.
Yes, gold plated bracelet-I found the exact same design three years ago. Sweet digs guys! 👍🏽🇺🇸
More and Higher percentage DEET !
I love your No Nonsensitive, Informative presentations and No Rah - Rah Si Boom Bah like most other Metal detecting videos. You make watching your videos a pleasure !

Wow! You guys found some nice history! Congratulations on a nice hunt.
Thanks so much!

I think you’re right about the pocket watch Joe, now that I’ve had time to think about it. Thanks again!
Time flies except when it’s fly time. 😉
Another great video with beautiful scenery and some amazing finds. Thanks!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Congrats on the silver. The high you get from a find like that is amazing
Without a doubt!
Great spot. I hope you go back and follow up in that area. Very interesting how finds were so spread out and dates on coinage. What history!
Nice video of your fantastic finds! Thanks for posting.
Like all your videos, you make them fun to watch. Congrats on your silver find. The places are beautiful where you hunt. Thanks
Thanks so much Joe!
Wow congratulations on the 1 Real! Great finds, both of you.
Love your scenery shots, slow pan, great channel, excellent narration with finds and historical reference to sites!
Great video of you Brad and the Edster! Bugs, Bugs everywhere and not a can of spray!!! Dude you need "OFF" in your arsenal!
Haha I say in the first minute that we doubled up on the spray!
Nice video. Congratulations Brad and Eddie. Great coins and relics.
Thanks a lot Harold!!
Ah yes, been waitin all week for this.
I really enjoy watching your videos! Nugget Noggin was my number 1 detector on UA-cam but I just recently found your channel! Nugget Noggin is now my second favorite detector. Need I say more... I look forward for each video.🙋💰💰👍🙌
Thanks so much Doc, glad to hear you enjoy them!!
Dude, Love your videos! You seem like a good dude with your heart in the right place with good intentions. Love the videos and the friendly content. You seem like a chill guy to have a beer by the fire with. Keep Posting!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words, Shawn! Glad to hear you enjoy the videos!
Incredible finds! Worth all the bug bites. Congrats on your beautiful silver coin! Thanks for sharing and happy hunting! ~ Gypsy
Thanks for watching, Gypsy!
Your vids get me pumped! Going to a new permission with a friend tomorrow! I appreciate all the work you put into your videos!
Awesome, good luck tomorrow!
Thanks for trying guy's!Soo many bugs!!Started making me itch.lol Love your hobbie.
A 279 year old coin that pre-dates the birth of the country is a keeper to be sure. Worth a few bug bites.
Without a doubt!
Thank you so much I enjoy watching your videos Congratulations on the silver! .. 👍👍👍👍
Awesome finds. Thanks for taking us along. Also, by the way, use a dab of Vick’s on the mosquito bites to stop the itching.
Thanks for the tip!!
Great find! You and Aquachigger are definitely my favourite Metal Detectorists. Thank you for the videos, keep them coming! Best regards from the UK! :D
Defiance76 Aquachigger hasn’t found anything good lately and he’s too busy goofing around playing grab ass with Jocelyn
I have to agree that his latest videos haven't been so good. Hopefully he'll get back to exploring the waters again soon.
Thanks a lot!
Excellent hunt!! That was great!! The mosquitoes here get me early in the mornings and just at dusk. So I feel your pain!! Great video again!!
Thanks so much!
Awesome finds, great hunt. A silver reale just awesome. Thanks for sharing. Until next time HH&GL *Chris*
Thanks again Chris!
Been thinking of going around florida looking for Relics and such it amazes me how many things people find
IF the bugs are knats or black flies, vanilla scented body spray works really well.
Loving your channel and the great finds.
Thanks a lot Bill!
Nice finds and great Hunt Thank You for sharing .....Good Hunting!
That indeed was a true morel.The true morel has a top that that attaches to the stem.The false morel which is poison resembles a umbrella where it attaches to the stem.You past up a tasty shroom there.If you find one there are usually more of them as they typically grow in small patches.Slice them long ways soak them in water with a bit of salt to make sure they are bug free for a bit.Some butter and some drakes fry mix in a skillet and you won't be passing those up ever again!
turtles like to eat morels so please leave some for them
Bugs are off the hook this year in Michigan too! Great Video as always! Listerine on those bug bites help alot!
Thanks so much Paul!!
Great fines as always.You should go back to the second spot and work it over some more, but remember to bring the bug spay. I loved the opening shot with the tree with the hole in it.
awesome man. good job. love it. great finds! you guys had me laughing in the beginning with all the bugs!! LoL see ya next time!
Thanks for watching!!
The term "bug-out" takes on a whole new meaning in this vid. ROTFL!
What a fine video guys, love watching your stuff. Great finds!
Another great video. Sorry you guys got bugged out, that was pretty fierce. Great to see Eddie as always, and congrats on the great finds.
Thanks a ton!
Hahahaha, it's a Nerd spill....!!! Some awesome finds!!! The holed silver is superb!!!
Some great finds congrats. GL & HH.
Great video Brad, you guys really toughed it out with the bugs! I don't know if I could have but you made it all worth it! Excellent finds! Love how you compile the vid's too. Great mix of detecting, explaining and nature shots. Keep up the awesome work!
Another great video. Really liked the pink fish eggs from the land shark.
Wow! What a great find, I found a 1964 silver quarter a month or so back, what to trade.😄😄😄😄😄👍👍👍👍👍
In the hole with the bracelet.
What was the round object sitting there?
Brother the bugs were horrific. You're a real trooper. GH
Hey mate. I've watched a few of your videos and I'm enjoying them all. One thing though, I know nothing about Vt. Would love to hear more on the local history as you're going along. Even the few tidbits you pick up along the way would be great. Keep on keeping one!
I’ll certainly do my best!
I think a video explaining how you find a cellar and determine it is a house location - for me at least that information might be very interesting
Watching this before bedtime and every time I started to yawn, I clamped my jaw to avoid swallowing bugs, 😝. Hope next time, no bugs, but what a day for coins!
Bug galore yet a fine hunt with the Mexican silver. Great video as always Brad.
Thanks so much Jon!
Nice digs guys...love your vids man, you're a class act buddy.
Dirtflicker ❤️I agree. They seem like great guys. I love watching these guys and Hans from Germany. I think his channel is Terra Germane- something like that.
Thanks so much Mr. Flicker!
Great video this morning, thanks for sharing. You two must have had an awesome day even with the bugs. Awesome finds!!!
Any day in the woods is a good one in my book! Thanks for watching!
Well...nothing short of a hazmat suit would have spared u from that bug onslaught...yet u persevered and got your treasure reward...AWESOME SILVER. Kudos!!!! Wooohoooo!
Woooohoooo thanks!
Just awesome finds guys. Congrats on your first real! Always enjoy end recommend your videos. HH, Sebastian
Thanks so much Sebastian!
Now, this is my kind of metal detecting! Setting here in the AC watching the two of you swat bugs. I always enjoy seeing the two you working the woods. Very nice finds and congratulations of the silver. Well done.
you said it... Me too!
Haha thanks Larry
Awesome hunt lads
Except for bugs
Black flies ? Always a pleasure to watch pal thanks for taking us along
Deet is your friend🤪
Haha I carry 98% deet, maybe I should track down some 99%...
the "bracelet" is part of a sword hanger. nice find!
Hey Brad and Eddie! Amazing finds for both of you! Really enjoyed the video. My life is in Tennessee right now, but my heart is in the woods of the north. I'd love to come up there and hunt with you guys sometime. :)
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, JD! 1000 miles is a long way for a couple coppers, but if you’re ever in the area for sure look us up!
I will definitely let you know if I'm ever in your area! In the future I do plan on spending a lot of time up north now that my life it settling down. I found a dateless KGII copper here in NE Tennessee late last year. I was stoked. About the oldest coin you can find here.

Thanks so much Katie!!
Hey Brad, excellent hunt! Congrats on all the coins!
12:30 That stuff that resembles candy is an amoeba-like growth called Wolf's Milk or "toothpaste slime".
Excellent, thanks for the info!
Great video, you guys hit the spot out there , definitely got to go back when the bugs have had their time , 😜🌵🦂⛏
Haha for sure!
Wowo, guys! Killer day! Super congrats on the 1 reale Spanish coin! Good job braving the bugs. That's not ever easy to do when they are that thick, but worth it when there is 1700s Spanish silver as a reward!
Heck yeah! Thanks for watching!
I am in St.Louis. Just discovered your programs on you tube. I enjoy them.
Don't we all like the outdoor life/bugs 😂 What a great adventure guys' thanks for sharing! 🤙🏼
Good job. Thanks for the adventure.
You need a smug, hahaha☮️🇨🇦Also thank you, enjoyed this so much.
That was a great find. I just bought my first detector because of your channel. Can't wait to get out.
Thats great to hear Tom, good luck out there!!
love your videos. Nice and clear great woods scenery. Great finds!
Thanks Glenn!
12:20 The 'pink nerds candy' is a slime mold. Quite fascinating actually, the mold sends out feelers to find it's new batch of food, almost in a sentient manor.
Awesome find, 1739 Spanish Colonial coin, (M) Manuel De Leon - 91.7 % silver. The hole in it suggests that it was attached to a neck band and worn as jewelry. It probably fell off and was lost until you dug it up hundreds of years later. It’s worth at least a couple hundred $’s in that condition.
I'm in the UK and that chain is a cloak chain. I have a couple myself. Beautiful woods
Thanks for the tip Nina!
Fantastic video. Great finds.
My new favorite channel!!
So glad to hear that!
Awesome‼️
Great video Brad.Very entertaining.
I just happened on your sight, and its very enjoyable to watch you explore.
From Calif, thanks for cool viewing. P.j.
Glad to hear that PJ!
