Uncovered Treasures: Incredible Findings Of Copper Coins During The Quest For A Gold Ring!

  • On this day I helped Mike search for a lost gold ring. The property owner lost the gold wedding band some days before and thought it was in a certain part of his yard. Mike and I searched for a couple hours without any luck. If it was lost in that area I am pretty certain we would have found it. But we will try again another day.
    The property owner gave us permission to search some adjoining fields so we split up the detection and went out into the fields for the last hour or two. We searched for coins, relics, buttons, and anything else we might find. That part of the day was a successful detection.
    About Aquachigger:
    I like to make videos that promote my lifestyle of 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. I keep my UA-cam "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.

      As a coin collector I thank you those other shows make me grind my teeth as they destroy the value of their coins. The more you clean them the less their worth. I will gladly add a as is coin, if it has age, but stay away from polished or cleaned coins.

    You've shown us before, but I think this is one of the best examples that clearly shows the destruction of the patina. Beautiful barn.

    I've been watching You for some time and have seen Your method (long version).
    It is impossible to argue against for any copper coins. I have seen other channels
    hosing down ancient coins obliterating any detail that might have been recovered,
    as you demonstrated. Happy to see you still preaching it.

    1819. Frederic Chopin had just given his first private piano concerto performance - a concerto he wrote - the previous year, at age 8. Beethoven was still alive and would be for another 8 years when this coin was minted. ❤❤

    I’ve learned two things from watching your videos so far Chig. (1) the fingernail and face oil on a copper instead of using water. That water destroyed some old Pennie’s that I tried it on.
    (2) How to ground the carrot before trying to pinpoint.
    Thanks for the great videos.

    I recommended your way of cleaning a few days ago on a group post. I encountered the same thing at Detectival last year. I found an 1888 Queen Victoria Penny. In the field it looked great with the mud rubbed off the high spots. Later on in my hotel room I was cleaning my other finds in the bathroom sink and as I am cleaning the penny with my toothbrush, I hear your voice in my head from the last video where you did the same demonstration! I can see the detail, but I have to use a loupe and get it in the right light. Lesson learned.

    I’ve found of coin is powdery looking. Best to do minimal as shown . If it’s a deep green Patina and not powdery it’s fine to clean with water . But it’s all a risk as results can be variable
