  • Please join me and RelicManMatt as we kayak down a river on a float trip and search for relics and coins with metal detectors. We are searching not only for coins and relics but any other treasures we may come across. It was a great float trip and we found some cool relics including a silver Spanish coin!
    About Aquachigger:
    I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure,
    metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my UA-cam "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
    BTW, you can also catch me here, / chiggsarmy ,but I may get a little edgier there. FB isn't a place for kids anyway...lol.

      Awesome hunt, Beau! As always it looks like so much fun & I'm grateful you took us along. That 1790 Rial was GREAT but so too were the carved bullets. Anytime you take us hunting for civil war relics is a treat, in my opinion.

      Me too. I'm retired but after a long hot east Texas day working round the house and in the garden and/or too much politics for my mind to wrap around, a nice cold non-AB beer and a river run with the Chigg calms me right down.

      You nailed it. I never comment but for some reason I did tonight stating that this is the very first Chanel I ever “Subscribed to” like 6-7 years ago. Then I read your comment just below mine. There is something really good about mr Aqua Chigger. He talks to each viewer directly. Happy Summertime!

    Chigg finds a silver coin and nonchalantly tosses it in the kayak. After I wake up from the stroke, I realize I'm watching a man who has found 100's of everything ever dropped and is not impressed anymore. You're killing me, Chigg.

    • @tim9430
      @tim9430 Рік тому +3

      That blows me away as well. I think it was a 1790, yet the Chigg gets more ecstatic over a lead civil war bullet that he probably has two or three full sized trash cans full of. I feel the irony.

    • @aserta
      @aserta Рік тому +2

      Extremely rare to find even the one like that. It's chemistry at play and not all woods behave the same. Some woods are actually rotting faster because of metal contamination. TO find two? Super rare. I've only found a single bullet stuck in wood like that from WW2, that's it.

    • @tim9430
      @tim9430 Рік тому +1

      Agreed. Very cool one of a kind display piece!
      Edit: I looked at it again and I'm guessing the copper-clad bullets helped preserve the wood around them from rotting. If you look between them and on either side of each slug the wood is rotted away very thin. I've heard that copper somehow prevents the decay in leather and other organic substances.

    River adventures are the best! I loved all the jokes about finding native American/Indian artifacts. One time we all went down the deliverance movie River and all ended up falling out the kayaks just like in the movie. We ended up finding a dugout native American canoe it had been sitting wedged underwater so deep that it couldn't rot

    • @tim9430
      @tim9430 Рік тому +1

      Wow! That is awesome. Now you've got me wondering if you dug it out of there. That would be a great museum piece! Even if only a partial boat remained, you don't often see wooden artifacts that have survived. If you see this, please let me know. I'll check back.

    Nice finds, Beau! I found a Burnside cartridge a couple of years ago, when the city was creating a recreation area. Apparently the place was used as a dump during a lot of the 20th century, so I honestly had no idea what it was. Beautiful green patina… I thought it was a weird tapered lipstick or something. 😏
