  • I went metal detecting in the creek at an old ford site, I found all kinds of evidence in the creek/small river that it was in fact a crossing path at one time. Then I went on a short Gold dredging hunt with Little Feet and my brother Matt for about 1 hour. We didn't stay long but we had fun and that is what counts . Thanks for Watching, Good Luck and Happy Hunting !

    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.

    *Extremely light weight It also Bestfor.Garden land for finding any things very easily. Walked out my door using this for the first time and within two feet of my stone driveway found 3 items. The complaints i see from others looks to be people who dont read instructions. Very informative directions.

    I love watching your videos because you're always happy about whatever you find, no matter how small it is. Some other people on youtube only look for the big fancy stuff, and get upset when they find something small like coins. You have a good attitude and make it look like fun! And then you even were talking about having a good attitude at the end. That's awesome

    though I had some problem with sea water It also ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

    Looks like a blacksmiths shop was right near that creek. The piece of the clamp, the hammer, and that iron ingot (what you're calling charcoal) would tell me that a blacksmith was set up right there.

    • @RESEARCHINGYOURROOTS
      @RESEARCHINGYOURROOTS 5 років тому

      I would like to say that worldly christianity (what has developed after the apostles were killed off) is NOT true Christianity. The Church that Christ organized in 30 AD ceased to exist before 100 AD. It does exist today since 1830. It is called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Jesus Christ personally restored His church in that year. I am certain you and Nugget Noggin will not agree with me. But you know now.

    In Ireland we hang them on the door, making sure they are turned up wards to collect all the luck and riches.
    Just found one me self some days ago. Was a cossack horse shoe. Well that is what they call them here. But it is from a small russian soldier pony. Will clean it up and slap it on my door soon :)

Most girls would rather be home watching MTV garbage, the Kartrashians or stirring up smartphone drama. Great to see we do have a few great young Americans still around these days, lol. Also, you are 100% correct about keeping a positive mind/outlook. Not only with relic hunting, but life in general. It is the absolute key to success and happiness! Stay awesome Abby! ...and keep doing what you're doing Nug.........over and out.

    What you are calling a horse shoe half is actually a part of a two part oxen shoe. They were made in two parts to fit the unique shape of their hoofs.

    • @jamesdalton3082
      @jamesdalton3082 9 років тому +2

      I agree completely. As soon as he said "half horseshoe" I thought of that. I worked at a living history museum and saw oxen shod many times.

    • @vickiolson1198
      @vickiolson1198 9 років тому +3

      James Dalton In all fairness, the camera did not show a real good close up and I should have asked some questions about it as there are many cases of people finding horseshoes that have broken in half and that may have been the case here. I may have jumped to a conclusion that I should not have without knowing a bit more about the piece.

    • @michaelheurkens4538
      @michaelheurkens4538 5 років тому

      These "horseshoe halves" are for an ox's cloven hooves. If you found a "broken" horseshoe, there is probably remains of a dead horse nearby with evidence of a busted-up leg. I've seen them bent plenty of times, but never broken.

    If you could keep your suction on the crevices for a bit longer after the dirt and soot are gone, you will improve your results. I'm sure that you know that gold takes centuries to find it's way down into the crevices and cracks, it takes a bit of work to get it out, be patient and the gold will show. Great video. Reminds me of me and my friends 40 years ago. Enjoy. Oh, those aren't broken horse shoes, they are oxen shoes. The tiny horse shoe is the right size for a donkey.

    The point is the unknown as in what you might find, he is after gold and other treasures after all. Most all that stuff are relics of the past when everyone got around via Horses, weren't any roads as we know them, just cleared right of ways thru the country, paved roads did not show up until the automobile was invented. I think It' would be great fun, wished I'd lived in such an area and had the equipment and means to do the stuff these young people are doing, Really enjoy your videos Nugget and don't let that Abby get away. She's not afraid of a little work, and not hard on the eyes either, lol. Keep up the good work and don't worry about the haters and doubters.
