  • Why are there so many coins in the river? That is a question we get every week! This video we find a bunch of old coins in the river, so I answer that question! Steve, Mark, and I head out to one of our favorite rivers that we call Silver River. Seems like we always find old silver coins here. This trip didn't disappoint. We find a few AMAZING Relics as well!

    People tend to forget the canals and waterways were once used on a constant basis to transfer goods and commodities, and they could be a treasure trove when searched in the right places. If you live anywhere along one of the main canal routes of the past, it’s worth doing some test digs in the area.

    That little Navy button could have been from a hat strap, maybe, but I think the round lead think Muck found is a bottle stopper. I found one a few years ago with a big X marked across it. Great hunt! Lots of cool stuff. Pretty sure they're from eroded shoreline. Most rivers here on the shore have lost hundreds of feet since colonial times. Thanks!

    The tiny button before you noticed the eagle designe on it for it being so small I thought it was maybe a shoe button from back then. However you noticed the eagle on it so unless there boots had tiny buttons with eagles on them I have no clue. What held the brass shoulder protectors fast against the mens shoulders? Or a button that held down the soldiers collar. Just some suggestions. Stay safe out there, blessings to you guys, cheers.😊

    Something in that spot is causing some incredibly well-preserved items. Maybe there is a very clear spring feeding in just up stream keeping salts and acids away from the metal? Maybe it's the composition of the soils and silts of the river bottom there? Maybe it's the volume of junk in the area shielding things under it? Whatever it is, KEEP HITTING THAT PLACE! You had a nearly complete shoe buckle, Mark's almost perfectly preserved coin, the crossed cannon piece that still had the damn PIN on it... I'm telling you, 99% of the time those things don't come out of a river that old and in that good of shape, and you found a cluster of them. Something special is happening there, take advantage of it! (I also think that tiny eagle button is a cuff button). :)
