- On this Metal Detecting Adventure I explored many different sites in a period of 2 days. The first place was a really cool old house site that had a cellar hole, I searched around the house for several hours and best find was a Compass that is in working condition. The next day I was heading back to one of my bottle dump sites and I got lost on the way and wondered off into unknown territory. I planned to dig bottles that evening but the Lord established my steps and led me onto two old house foundations in the woods. The day turned out well and I had a lot of fun. Thank the Lord for keeping me safe and leading me to those old house sites.
I hope yall enjoy the video and God bless!
Finding that compass reminded me of Psalm 103:12, which says "as far as the east is from the west, so far does he(The Lord) remove our transgressions from us."
"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters." Psalm 23:1-2
"The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." - Proverbs 16:9
To God be the glory.

About Nugget Noggin:
Hey! I'm Michael, I love to get outdoors and discover awesome things
with my metal detector. I started treasure hunting when I was 12 years
old and shortly after received my first metal detector. Since then, I've
been hooked and just love going out to search for the unknown. You
may see me in the woods crawling under an old house or diving down
in the river to search for rings. Wherever the adventure brings us, I'll try
my best to keep you entertained.

May the Lord protect you when go hunting. You never know what's out there lurkin. God bless you man.
I loved the machine gun nest, it's amazing it's undisturbed for the most part. I enjoy how you paint the pictures of life back in the day, washing and swimming in the creek...I also enjoy the way you slip the verses in at just the right times. My favorite find of the day is the piece of broken pottery.
God Bless, you, Michael.
Nugget your walkin right by all the young polk salad, my granny wouldve had a fit. Lol
I really enjoy your videos. When life gets to busy for me to go out exploring I live vicariously through your videos. Thank you. Keep faithful and may God be with you.
I have been crying 'cause i dont feel well, (i still am) and your positivity is making me smile. Thanks. Keep doing what youre doing.
it makes me happy to see you so excited and passionate about things. "wow! it must be an old house site. is that a well?! nooo way!" hahaha
I'm not a religious man myself, but I really do admire and appreciate your dedication to The Lord.
Me neither
It never ceases to amaze me how many old house sites are hidden in the woods, I hope you find your way back to them and find more old relics. Take care Michael, good luck 🍀and happy hunting, Mary-Ellen UK 🙋👍
Takes me back to when I was young and roaming the woods for bottles. Thanks and God bless you.
beautiful when you get to the bottom of that hill
All the greenery on the forest floor was so beautiful
That is what I thought too.
Susan B I do agree! its absolutely beautiful! I guess being that I've grown up here in Detroit all my life these video's jus look unreal like fiction almost lmbo its so beautiful to me but also so very scary same time!
I so very much enjoy your videos Nugget. I look forward to them all. Good to see the Word of God you share to. Makes it extra special for me. Keep them coming :) Thank You.
Thanks for shareing that great outing, good finds. Always like the scriptures.
Watching your channel got me into metal detecting down here in Louisiana. Going hunt this month on a 1000 acre property with an old general store site on it.. never been detected. I'm pretty excited! Thanks for posting videos they teach me a lot!
I'm from Cape Breton Island Nova Scotia Canada. I love watching your videos, especially during the long winter. I love your enthusiasm, I wish you all the luck. Your a fine young man. God bless you.
Another great video, nugget ! Thanks for sharing. Nice find on the compass.
Hey Nug, First l want to thank you, that was a cool frolick in the woods. All who wander are not lost, good to get lost.I was given that advice a lot now that l think about it.As good old mother used to say "Go outside and play" l did. Thanks again brother, you take care now
Really enjoy watching your videos and love your heart for the Lord. God's richest blessings on you and your continued success!
Congrats on old compass. thats a nice find. Good luck at the old house sites you found.
That video was great you want all over the place and found some cool stuff thank you for posting take care stay safe keep up the great work. God bless you peace be with you.
thanks for all your wonderful videos, Nugget!! :) God bless. :)
Before my dad went to be with the LORD, he gave me his compass. We use to hunt together all the time. It's the same one you have found. It was from either the Boy Scouts or the Army. It's an awesome piece. All brass!!
Nugget my mum and I have learnt a lot from you about metal detecting since we have been watching you for a long time and like we said a while ago we found axe and some coins and a house shoe when we went on holiday you are so cool love al s mum 🇬🇧🙏🏻👍🏻✝🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
You are amazing! God bless you ~ be safe out there. I sure do love watching your adventures!
Hey Nugget, thanks for keeping it real. Keep the Faith!
As always Thank You for providing us with adventure
Good adventure to tag along on. Hope that area works out for you. (and for us too)
Jerry Dineen
You have amazing luck at finding old home sites! Very cool! ✌
Enjoyed the video my friend keep it up and the good word of the big man above
I think your findings are really cool and fascinating! Especially your civil war findings. I have a metal sector and I plan on using it soon.
thanksfor taking me along on your adventure ,enjoy discovering old sites. I always wonder who lived there.
just watched Beau. spent after work messing around some old trails. few bits and pieces tonight.
I love the way you aren't afraid to give the good Lord some props..sadly alot of us younger guys dnt seem to care much anymore..I'm not perfect but god has given me comfort and hope..I might not do it right but I try to know him and talk to him daily
Thanks, Joshua! Take care and God bless.
@@nuggetnoggin thanx buddy 🙏
It is really cool how you are walking through the dank dry brown and gray woods and then step across a line into the lush green grass. Where do you live/search? Are you worried about snakes or spiders? I would be so afraid to be bitten by either one. I guess you have to risk it to be able to explore everywhere. Love the videos. God bless!
That is fascinating you found that house site by the creek. I wonder if they built the house next to the creek for the water. I bet that little area was a major water source to do laundry, bath and carry buckets of water, etc. Amazing how far we have come....8-)
I used to do the same as you, keep up the videos. God bless you Michael.
Thank you for keeping GODS word in your videos! It is very refreshing. And just like you never know what you may find on your hunts, you don't know who these messages are for or whom they may reach.
Hey Nugget, around 6:05 that flint you found I believe is a hide scraper made by Native Americans. Its very possible that it is an unfinished point, but it more than likely is a hide scraper. Still just as awesome as an arrowhead, and a lot rarer! Great find!
Nice exploration and some good sites you've got there. Makes me want to detect right now :P
Seems like getting lost almost always leads to great experiences. That one find ya got sure did look like some kind of knife, but as you said, looked awful heavy. Sure wouldn't mind if you show us what it turns out to be once you get it cleaned up a bit. I always enjoy your vids nuggetnoggin. I think you and the Silver Slingers would make for a great get together.
That's some great detectin scenery.
Nuggetnoggin, you didn't say anything about the quartz rock at 14:45! HAHA Cool. Thanks for sharing.
+BJEAKE Sorry I forgot to mention it, I normally say something about those Quartz rocks haha. Thanks for watching!
Hey a that's some nice finds. Me and my dad go metal detecting. And we usually find junk nothing really interesting here down in W.V. Me and him go to old houses and find trash and a LOT of bottles.
wow you find the coolest thing I only find modern day things like pennies, dimes, quarters, and nickels when I watch your videos I always think I will find something good like an Indian head, but I still love it because you never know what your gonna find
Nuggetnoggin it gives me such joy to see a young man who embraces our lord and savior in a world going to hell in a hand basket.
wow...you made me dizzy going down that hill....I can see me going end over end....haaaa
I'm figuring that pottery shard is part of a old Demijohn .
And they was down to the " Creek " drinking and sinan .
kid you got me hooked on your channel
The land you drove through was beautiful.
Your freest/woods must be huge. Some cool finds !! From the uk and ours are OK Robin Hood and stuff but urs is much cooler 😀
Sweet recovery on the Compass, have you been able to determine its age? One of my favorite finds was a small brass compass I found on an old stage coach road in Connecticut. The copper patina had made an air tight seal and preserved the insides so well that when I opened it up it still worked. Hand pressed glass, iron forged needle, hand turned screw threads dated it to the 1790's!!
Luke 19:10 “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
Amen to that.
Do you ever see Bigfoot in all those woods you tromp around in?
gil ga gil ga gil gagil... ok gomer.. you are smart at knowing what you find...I would love exploring with you... I dont have an expensive metal detector but after a hurracane here on the florida treasure coast I tried.. found a guy digging a hole in a beach in Wabasso.. he was about 12 feet down.. he was the guy who found a small chest full of silver coins. I know where all the shipwrecks are but you have to search the beach after a hurricane.. and they are usually closed after one.I am not a diver but I love metal detecting.This guy told me all the scavengers already took the silver coins out of the dune. Another cool place to search is a civil war battlefield in md, va, penn..
I really enjoy watching your videos. Is there any way you could show one of how you clean some of your delicate finds? I have heard you say a dozen times not to rub to hard when you find an old coin and I would like to see how you personally go about cleaning the items that end up in your collection.
Stay cool young man ur doing a great job...wish u well
Awesomeeee!!!!! Video Nuggetnoggin i was just waiting For you to make one Awesoemee!!!! Godbless!!! (;
I think Garret needs to get you a blaze orange ball cap with their logo
I was getting a little worried about You getting lost or hurt! But really enjoyed this!
The big knife looking thing almost looks like a rasp for filing horse's hooves. the small piece at one end would slide into a wooden handle
hi i have been following a lot of your vlogs. looking at y our older ones now. Wow that shooting was scary.
Cool! Never get tired watching your videos your name should be Indiana Nogget Jones lol. For real bro.
Really like your videos... Not so much the scriptures, but hey these are your videos and those are your beliefs - I'm not going to judge you. And they don't take from the videos much. Seeing as how I'm not religious, I try to appreciate the scriptures as though they are just wise words from wise men. There is a lot of beautiful and poetic stuff in the bible. Thanks for the videos, haven't watched in a while but I need to catch up. Keep hunting!
I enjoy the video, God bless!
A most excellent adventure.
Hey nugget, going to visit my daughter in bayport wv. Wondering if you have been their and might have some tips on areas to explore. Thanks- keep up the good work!
Good finds!
thank you nugget for motivating me to keep trying I haven't found anything good yet vut I wont give up God bless
+wil bryant can't find it if you don't search. Keep at it...you'll find something.
+Jay Callaghan thanks
Michael you have no fear! The whole time I'm going SNAKE SNAKE SNAKE.... You have to be COVERD in chiggers and tic bites... Love your vids tho God bless and hh
Great videos thanks. keep it up.
I want to see you dig for your stuff that's the exciting part
Nugget, What I find funny is all these Bigfoot sites would say you are surrounded by Sasquatch. They are behind every tree and bush according to them. It is hilarious they really believe it too, what a joke.
Excellent video as always
Great video, God bless..
17:35 looks like an old hoof rasp and missing the handle. Ive seen really old ones and they look like that. Maybe not. Just a guess.
I love to watch you and one day I will probably meet you next time I go Creek walking your amazing I am also a follower of Christ
If you ever design a shirt, just let it read, "I GOT LOST AND FOUND IT!"
Awesome vid man.
+Zach Byrd Adventure Hour Thanks for Watching!, I will keep that name in mind.
wonder if that last item may have been a candle holder for a taper candle
Good job Michael. The Ace 400 does it have good discrimination for small iron?
wow look at this rock !!!!
have you ever done any herbing like digging ginseng or goldenseal while out metal detecting
thanks bud liked how you did the vid
You can read the land pretty well. How long have you been treasure hunting?
I'm an atheist but you seem like a good Christian and it is a shame I don't see more like you.
+iLLixer404 You could....there are lots out there...just not always on youtube....Nugget seems to be a fine young man....with an awesome future in Christ.
+Frankie Cowsert in my experience... there's not many
You know you're probably right in there not being many. The thing is that we are all sinners, every day...nothing we can do about it because we were born into sin. It's what we do about it that counts. It takes a lot of faith and faith is something that's always been very hard for me. If I can't see it, it's hard for me to say "it's there"...however, I was born into a Christian family, my dad was in church every time the doors opened and he always was doing something good for someone, but he passed away when I was only 9 and my mother was still a good Christian but not like my dad. We stopped going to church, but a few things had happened to me at church that I had never told anyone about..mainly because I didn't understand it. Honey, I have one some doozeys(not a word)of sins in my life, but I've always known that Jesus loved me an He has pulled me through many a problems. It's funny cause most Christians don't eve turn to Jesus unless they want something, like He is going to just produce it if you want it...He says you will receive what you need if you only believe. I've always believed but I have had my moments too. I don't believe you are an atheist, I believe you just need guidance and to start with..a wee bit of faith. I suffer from clinical depression and bipolar depression and some of my days an nights are pretty bad, however my medications helps a lot, but there days.....and I pray for Jesus to please guide me and help me with my suffering and let me have a good day and most times I do. I never forget to thank Him at the end of the day. Do some thinking....I think you are seeking ....and needing....I do not even call myself a Christian,nor do I go to church, but by golly, I believe in Jesus Christ and that He is my savior and one day I plan on being in heaven with Him. May God Bless YOU and lead you. Frankie
It has been two years since you wrote your testimony Frankie. You had to wonder if anyone has read it, well, I have and you have blessed me greatly. Another You Tuber said to me something to the effect that all the Christian preaching on You Tube goes nowhere. I'd say he is wrong. I told this person that God will use method he can to get his word out including You Tube. We could call ourselves You Tube Missionaries. My sister had (I'm having a terrible time with spelling today), she saw and heard things. I never knew what was going to happen that day. Everyday was a new adventure. But one thing for sure, She Loved Jesus! I know she is with him today. God Bless you Frankie. You blessed me. I think I will read your testimony again before closing up. I wish that I could copy but You Tube stops me.)
You can do a screenshot to save it. I know that some day i will be going to meet my maker and i do my best to be able to be with my family when i get called home. I also had things happen to me growing up and no longer go to church but i still love the lord and feel blessed to wake up every day . Keep the faith. Don't give in to evil. God Bless!
Could the big knife thing be a root cutter from an old walking plow?
Thanx nugget..a.i apriciate you..if your in Vermont let me know I have a spot that need a buddy to help
Do you carry a handheld GPS with you. It would be great for marking position of house sites you found. Also for keeping you from getting lost.
I love your videos!
You're braver than me, I hate spiders, I would have screamed like a girl. lol
I love watching your adventures, but what state do you live it. It's so awesome.
How do you clean up your finds? What liquid is best to use for a sonic cleaner on coins?
Is there a spider on my face! Haha! Great video Nugget.
Thanks Bud!
love ur vids man and how u quote things from the Bible
That verse you used from Psalm 103:12 ( 1:40 ) is actually one of the verses to use when debunking those people that like to say,"The Bible says the Earth is flat". With a sphere, going from east to west would go on forever, but you would fall off with a flat Earth.
well nugget noggin I have a question ,in all honesty which of the two detectors are the best ,the AT Pro or the AT Gold .Thanks and I watch everything you do , I think your my fav.
Can you youse any old bog-standard metal detectors to find what you find or do you have to youse sophisticated ones?
keep up the good work
I sure love ur videos
This video is so cool nugget
Thank you, glad you liked it!
Enjoy all your videos. What video camera do you use? Thanks!
cultivator blade, that the iron place found.
Hey nugget at 16:19 there was a bullet. Did you pick it up? I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!
