- Another CA Relic Adventure -- A HUNT for The AGES !!!
EPIC Coin Spill and Double Eagles!! WOW! WOW! WOW!
If you don't like this then you need to give up metal detecting because this is what we dream about!!
This is one of the very best detecting videos on all of UA-cam. 65 dollars in gold and a handful of halves is the stuff dreams are made of!
You guys even got my heart rate up. This was the most amazing thing to watch. Congratulations guys, this why we detect. Bringing history alive.
Thx Curt!! Appreciate the comments!
HUGE CONGRATS TO BOTH OF YOU!!! Definitely finds of a lifetime.
All I can say is wow! Congrats guys, that is the hunt we all dream of and you got to live it. Thanks for sharing it with the rest of us.
The best detecting vid I have seen! As a coin fanatic I was green with envy watching! Thanks!
Cull Silver Watch TerraGermania and you 'll go nuts! It's a guy from Germany who finds stuff from the romans and celts all the time!
TerraGermania is a channel I have watched from the start. Very good and down to earth. I enjoy watching any metal detecting videos from around the world except England. They are so arsey and competitive it makes me sick. Thats coming from someone who has been metal detecting in England for the past 40 years.
I’ve watched many videos and to see the zeal of y’all’s hunt makes the video appealing in many ways, Soon I join in the hunts from Texas. Texas NightHawk Soon seeks once again. That was an awesome hunt by any standard I Tip my hat my Garret ATPro hat of course. Beep beep dig Gents and dig with style always.

Omg! Me too!
WOW! How awesome. I almost had a heart attack just watching those coins come out of the ground. Congrats guys.
Watching this felt like I was there too. I had a huge grin on my face the whole time and whooped at each flash of silver and more so on the gold!
Love this!!! Thank you sharing the excitement.
Thanks Joe! That was an exciting night for sure. Fun to relive it from time to time!! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comments!!👍🏻
Great job, I get goose bumps each time I watch this. We spend many hours in the woods and recover some great historical finds. Maybe this will be the year for one of us to find a gold coin. I don't hear of too many being found in NH. I do know, I will find incredibly awesome stuff and share them with otheres and their finds. Good luck
Thanks for stopping by! Best of luck with your adventures. You are in an old area and I'm sure some great stuff will pop out of the ground!
Just wow!
This is the most exciting coin detecting video I have ever seen. Well done guys!!!!
hahah Thanks for the great comment!! That was a crazy day/night and one I will never forget and thanks to UA-cam we all have it forever!!
This is why you guys are on my list of Interesting channels on my channel page! Flippin awesome! OMG!!
I have probably watched this video 50 times over the years it's the video I watch to get me back in the right detecting headspace when good finds seem to dwindle and I hit a dry spell. Everyone that has been metal detecting for a long time knows the feeling and also how your hunting instantly changes when you find gold. This video really helps me cause I feel like it's super close to where I live and hunt in gold country Ca. Placerville still haven't found that gold coin but I have bought a couple with other finds. Thanks for sharing such a great video.
Thanks for taking the time to share your comment!! Always enjoy when a true detectorist appreciates and is motivated by a video. We were fortunate to find a few great items but I have to watch it too to get motivated. My detecting time has almost gone to zero for a variety of reasons I wish you all the best in your adventures and that gold coin will pop out for you when you least expect it!! Take care
When you guys pulled out the second gold coin I was like OMG!
HO-LY-SMOKES!!! I’m blown away by what I just watched! CONGRATULATIONS on an awesome find! 👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks for sharing for sure🤙🤙
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to post a comment. Glad ya found the video. Been tough to top that night.
and I was gonna post a video of the 9 Bobby pins, 5 pull tabs and three modern pennies I found at the beach....
LOL post em up!!
Jeffery Allan I would love to see the Bobby pins....🤔
Jeffery Allan do it anyways, start your own vlog. Since I'm in California, this group are the 1st in ca that I hv sub. The rest are east coast. I metal detect too. I need a better camera tho.
I like your sense of humor, Jeffery! Hold the thought that you deserve even more! Called the Law of Attraction!
guys ive been in this wonderful hobby for 30yrs and guys outstanding job!! hard work does pay off!!now you have a tail for the grandkids wtg keep up the hard work!!
Thank you so much for the comment. And when we retell these stories in the future I am sure they will be even more grand than they are--until they watch the video and see Grandpa is full of stories!! LOL
Looks like a Wells Fargo spill. Great job boys!
That sounds very possible!
Best recoveries ever!!! Going to watch this over and over. A dream come true.
Hey Doug--Happy you found this video. I have been watching over and over for 8 years! Still love adn get the same rush when watching it! What a night!! Thanks for dropping in and posting a comment!
@@RonSwensonRelicAdventures We used to live in San Jose and would go to Reno a lot. I wish I was into metal detecting back then. We left Calif in 1992 for NC where we live now.
We left California 3 years ago and now my videos are mostly in Virginia but I trip down to Charleston every year so have a few videos of that area as well.
@@RonSwensonRelicAdventures Nice, I will check them out for sure. I always remember drooling over a video of you digging a large gold nugget in California. My wife said to me, “why can’t YOU ever find one of those?”
I’m sure going to miss her. 🤪
hahaha Funny -- she WANTED a Gold Digger!! 🤣
Oh my god!!!! We jumped out of our seats two or three times watching this video. Unbelievable hunt guys! Congrats to all of you. We just found your channel and subbed. Can't wait to see more videos. Best hunt on UA-cam.
What an awesome adventure. Best suspense movie I've seen ever! I believe I cried tears of joy for you. I never thought I'd get that emotional over metal detecting.
WOW! That was EPIC! Thanks for sharing guy's.
Thx for the view and the comment!
this one gets the video of the Year award folks the most exciting hunt and finds of coin shooting!
Hey Jan--Thank you for the view and the nice comment! We have to predate the find of the year--its been a while and hoping another EPIC fan comes along again!!
I think your video description says it all - WOW! WOW! WOW!
When the first $20 popped out I thought you guys quite understandably and simultaneously bust a nut. Anyone listening must have thought there was some Brokeback Mountain stuff going on but the video proves otherwise - awesome to get that recovery on film.
GL&HH
This video is six years old and I’m excited as if they’re finding these coins in Jan 2021!
Andrew’s mom probably told him as a kid to stop playing in the mud or one day you’ll find yourself digging in a field somewhere hoping you’ll find gold. LOL
THIS DIG IS JUST AMAZING. WAY TO GO! I’M SPEECHLESS.
This is the best detecting video I’ve watched.
Hahaha. We have been milking this find forever. LOL. I still get excited watching it and I was there. Thanks for stopping by and for posting a comment We did have a few other decent videos. Been a bit inactive since covid Thanks again
Not sure what to say. Can't pick my jaw off the ground 😱 WOW!!
You said it. This is my first time watching these guys. What a haul.
By far a hunt of a life time, wow!! Congrats you guys!
Thank Jeremy and yes that will be tough to beat!
Dude this was more exciting than anything i've ever seen lol amazing finds ! Those $20 pieces are selling on Ebay for $2-4k each !
Thanks bXd for stopping by and posting a comment! Yes that is a very exciting find and was great to be there live!! Those 3 $20's will never see ebay!! LOL
What did you used to research this area? What did you type in to google? It’s amazing!
It’s amazing how u guys are real metal detectors finding this crazy stuff and not pre planting. Very cool
Thanks for stopping by and the for the comment. That was a fun night but that is a rarity in our hobby. /That was a couple 3 years ago and we still are milking that one!! LOL But this stuff is still in the ground and not every great find is fake. It really does happen and we were lucky to find this.
Simply amazing. Anglo Saxramento horde found! ;)
You guys have the best metal detecting live dig footage's on youtube undoubtedly! Thank you for putting the time and uploading new ones periodically. A true source of motivation and inspiration to go out and dig! GOD BLESS AMERICA. HH
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is the most amazing metal detecting video I've ever seen!
I WOULD DIE!!!!!!!!!!!! Huge congrats on the finds of a lifetime!!!!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!!!
@Tony Two-Cent. If you liked this one, you would also love Aquachigger's silver find in a river (probably a spill at a river ford). He found over 150 coins, none of which were newer than 1838. Most were U.S. halves, but there were a number of foriegn ones as well. It took at least two trips to find them.
I have my AT Max in my hand watching this AGAIN. Best inspiration in the world right here!
HAHA Thanks for the comment! Always good to watch a good find to get motivated!! I also like to watch them when I can't get out due to poor weather!!
This is what we all dream about! Unreal is all I can say!
I am totally blown away you guys. I’ve been wanting to try metal detecting all my life. Just never got to it. I’m 57. This video is the fire I needed under my butt. This stuff fascinates me. I live up in Canada in Alberta. A lot of history here but not as far back as you guys.
I’ve always loved old coins/trinkets/Jewelry. It’s not the cash value to me, it’s the stories these things could tell. Good stuff guys!
Javers, Glad you found the video! This is a great hobby-gets you outside and the possibility of a very cool find. This hobby can be tailored for any area. Just adjust your mindset to what you are looking for. If you look in yards or parks the mindset is coins and trinkets. Don't expect relics. Beaches-Jewelry and coins. Etc etc. Yes it takes time to learn the machine and where to go but hat is all part of the game we play as detectorists!! Best of luck and glad we were able to give you a little motivation.
great job! I envy you guys. This video is legendary. I'd be content with finding just one of these... maybe two... Best wishes in future hunts. It pays off when one does his homework.
Oh boy! Congratulations! I’m still waiting for my first!
Wow incredable thats crazy guys, every detectorists DREAM!
now that was the best spin ever right there - wow.
we have two lady hunters around here and both of them found gold coins last year - my blood pressure would shoot up very very high on one of those fine tickets.
nice going - that is hard action to fade there - for anyone ever again. good job.
see ya - good luck
How can you top that day?
Amazing finds - it’s why we dream and dig...
Thanks for stopping by. I agree and the why I like the thrill of this hobby. just wished it happened more often!! LOL
Well all I can say I amazing my wife and I speculated perhaps sums one buried them and didn't come back either died etc and latter as you suggested farm works spread them around.
Another thought was perhaps a person attacked by Indians and lost there money, spread everywhere.
Either way it was a magic video and congratulations to all concerned a job well done good luck on you future hunts, I take it it was an area related to the gold rush period?.
Thankyou
Paul
I would love to find a gold sovereign here one day that would be great.
Beautiful finds, it’s what we ALL DREAM ABOUT
Enrique, Thanks for stopping by and for posting a comment. Yes it was a DREAM FIND for sure!!
A couple of comments - 1. CONGRATULATONS!!!
2. Thanks for not using profanity!!!!
3. I'm one of the ladies that Max knows and I got a 2 1/2 gold dollar coin on 10/28/14 along with my hunting partner Kelley Rea, so I know how you are feeling. BUT TIMES 4!
4. Love the silver too. I can't wait to see more of the coins from that area.
5. Why do you all use small digging tools?
6. Your ground looks amazing and easy to dig.
We try to to minimize the cussing but we can't always prevent it. It is pure raw reaction!! I do edit out some of the really bad ones though!!
Congrats on your Gold Coin!
The Lesche is the best digging tool in our opinion so we all use one!!
We also use APEX picks but we had a pretty good idea of what was going to pop out so we just used our hand diggers!!
Wow! I could literally feel the excitement with each find. Congratulations and thanks for sharing with us. Awesome, Awesome, video👍
Daniel--thx for stopping by and taking the time to post a comment. I tend to get excited even when someone else swings over a great target!!
I'm speechless. Congratulations!
You know, you'd find one and be happy off the scale… Then…
How awesome was that? :)
Thank you-- yeah that was crazy!!
Wow! By far the best dig that I've seen. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it. By far one of the best nights I have had seeing adn videoing this pop out of the ground! Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to post up a comment!
Here I thought my 1901 S Barber quarter was gonna be a great vid :/
Dude that is an awesome coin!! Value wise--it trumps the whole Cache!! Double Eagles included but maybe not as fun to watch!! LOL
Dr. Tones, your 1901 S Barber Quarter was AWESOME for an Idaho find! Gold Rush Is CA Territory? 1901 S Barber Quarter in Idaho.... Rarest Video. No ? Envious, til I find A Video Worthy Dig. :)
Your videos are also awesome.
I didn't find even one coin,but I got to see you guys having fun.
Thanks for dropping in and don't feel bad, I didn't take any coins home that night either! I detected a few but Andrew dug em all. I had a blast videoing them pop out hto! When you see em pop out live its just like digging them! The excitement is real!
absolutely amazing haul of great finds well done guys
john :)
Wow! And this is why we put "The coil to the soil!" Congrats!!
You guys make me sick! ;) WOW GREAT HUNT GUYS!
Seems to me, there should be plenty to go around out west there. JJ from Chambersburg Pa
wooooooooooow....mind completely BLOWN!!!!! Awesome hunt once in a lifetime find!! GL & HH
Thx Mike Appreciate the comment! That was one crazy find for sure!!
What an amazing hunt guys. The first $5 had me then to pull three $20 is just out of this world. You should rename the site "the field of dreams". Can't wait to see I you guys pull anything else from there.
OMG!! Oh yeah!
Man it's so good that it's hard to believe it! I see why people would say it's fake, it's almost impossible to believe. Absolutely find of a lifetime. I only wish I had a good area to hunt like this near me! Always love rewatching this one!
Yeah it is unbeleivble and as I stated if I wasn't there I would question it too!! But live digs are incredible and we try to get the viewers engaged in exactly what we are seeing as we dig. You see it just like we saw it!! Pretty crazy when a great big Gold Coin pops out!!
I wish here in Maryland I had the potential to find stuff like that. My best find is a 1923 Peace Dollar. Otherwise all I have is clad, evil pull tabs and miscellaneous items. I may just need to change where I hunt.
Can you please tell me how you research areas like this!! Not looking for your place, but how do you research these areas???
Most of our sites are located via old maps. Usually old survey maps. Other useful items are old historical books about a specific area, or old diaries that mention certain stops etc. Then the records office will hold all the owner information you will need if it is not public.
Good Luck
How do you know where in California its legal to detect?
Best metal detecting video I've ever seen on UA-cam!!! Those live digs were unbelievable. Thank you so much for sharing!!!!
Three gold coins found 15/20 feet from Andrews Spill? Andres started it? Sounds like this is part of Andrews Spill and metal detecting ethics would have told you to stay away from Andrews area. What a shame!!!
Thanks for stopping by but your assumptions are 100% off. Everything was above board with everything 100% discussed prior to the Gold coins being found. The golds were considerably farther away than what is stated and we hunted the general area of the spill for 20 minutes with no additional signals prior to agreeing that the site was open. So NO SHAME with these finds and pretty generous to let a guest hunt these types of sites with us. (and keep everything they find)
Andrew called you over. You guys jokenly say you knocked Andrew out and hunted his area? You also state Andrew starts it and now your getting into it. Mark did the research and it's fitting that he gets a good coin. You clearly thank Andrew for finding the first gold coin and you clearly state you guys are 15-20 feet from where the spill is. You guys should have walked back to where you were called from and allowed Andrew to search his area with his metal detector. No ethics in what you guys did and any veteran metal detectorist would tell you the same. And this thing about being generous and allowing guests to metal detect and keeping whatever they find? That's your added bonus? If you invite someone to go hunt the location in which you yourself are a guest it's finders keepers. Since when do detectorists ask other detectorists to hand over there finds to them. Not doing so is generious? The only time you would hand something over is if it has been agreed upon by the detectorists and the landowner. I've been metal detecting with other people for over 30 years and yes there is a code of ethics.
John you are way off but entitled to your opinion
First off--we always call each other over. We are not trying to hide finds from each other-- we always do that so that is not uncommon.
Yes we said a lot in the excitement of the find- I didn't have a tape measure with me I was about 10-15 feet from Andrew when he found the 1st half dollar so didn't have far to walk back to. Some of those coins were within feet of my original location so I probably was entitled to dig and keep what I found but we didn't. They (Coins) were not all 2 feet from the originals they were spread out . Some were 10-15 feet from the original find. But we let him dig every target in that area. The gold coins were at least 40-50 feet from the "spill" It was rather dark when the golds popped out so distance was just an estimate when stated on the video. Just "in the moment" comments -not literal tape measure measurements.
Two coins does not make a spill/Cache so we could have just dug and kept what we were hearing. But I felt it was more important to keep the find "whole" once we started hearing all the signals in that initial area. After 15-20 minutes with no signals we all decided as a group that we could beep and dig again. So we widened the area and started hunting again. I guess you feel whoever finds the first couple targets gets the entire site?
FYI -- I left with ZERO coins
Ethics?? Andrew was fine with the situation and we discussed at what point we all get to dig again. So I would say if he gave us the green light then your ethics comments go right out the window as it does not apply. If you have permission then it is not a ethics situation.
We don't ask anyone to turn over their finds!! You are really reaching now with those last "generous" comments!! But YES we are generous to take people to sites that have these types of opportunities for great finds. The generosity is in the act of sharing these sites but you tried to tie it to the act of them keeping what they find. That is common sense and not "code of ethics".
Again, you are entitled to your "30 years of experience" opinions but they simply do not apply to this situation and without you being there you have no idea of what/where or why things happened as they did. You simply saw video clips of things being found with no additional info/details or actions to fill in the gaps.
Best of luck to you out there.
First of all when a group of veteran detectorists go metal detecting we often do call one another to check our finds; however, we NEVER metal detect someone's HOT SPOT and that is exactly what both of you did. Everything is on video and at no moment have I wavered from what is happening on this video. Your total changing the facts from 15-20 feet to 50+ feet. It was dark and I could not calculate the distance is just a manipulation of the facts. It's on video!!! I'm not making this stuff up. Just listen to what Mark says after you say "It's only fitting that he gets a good coin"....... why don't you quote what he say? Quote him!! Those three gold coins were part of that spill and we're found 10-20 feet and is part of that spill. Coin dates, condition, and the FACT that they were found 15-20 feet from where that KID found gold and silver coins dated within 20 years of those gold coins. That's literally 6 steps from where this kid is digging. And it's only fitting that he gets a good coin?...... Just because you took the KID to your location it's only fitting that he gets a good coin? I'm quoting what is said on the video....not making this up. What you should have done was tell him to search his area for more coins and walk back to your location and keep hunting....which you did not. You both totally took advantage of Andrews find. Hey it's on video!!! I'm not making this stuff up. You even said quote "Andrew started it and now we are on it" end quote. And yes I've metal detected for over 30 years in two different continents and in those 30 years I have never......tempting as it might have been....because I too have been tempted....have I ever metal detected someone's Hot Spot. So absolutely no ethics in what you two did. Hey Anthony, Paco, Juan check what I just found....and if Anthony, Paco or Juan started metal detecting my HOT SPOT....well iethics would tell you to watch or walk away.
I guess you can agree in advance that if anyone finds a certain coin you automatically get to search 10m radius around it...but these guys are pals so you don't want to be a greedy s.o.b. I mean - without the research you wouldn't' even be in the right places..
I don't know what's best the finds or the reactions! Absolute joy to watch, Double Eagles are coins of real beauty
Yeah our reactions even make us laugh when we watch them! Thanks for stopping by
How can someone give a "thumbs down" to this video?
LOL Some will simply not believe that a find like that can happen!! Or maybe they simply don't like us, or we may offend with a bad word or two. Or maybe -- simply jealous!! Thanks for watching!
+CA Relic Adventures w/ Ron Swenson & Mark Dayton Hey, if you don't find them, who will? If people are too lazy to get up off the couch to swing a detector, their los, your gain. Uh, (clears throat and asks innocently:) where's that field at again?
+CA Relic Adventures w/ Ron Swenson & Mark Dayton Oh, why such large coins? No smaller silver/gold? Any reason for that? Ever heard of the country's last train robbery south of Ashland, Oregon, near the California border? There's supposedly silver dollars (still) scattered after the robbers used too much dynamite (killing a conductor) I live 40 miles north but I remember the explosion was at the other end of the Siskiyou Summit railroad tunnel. Youse guys come up here and we'll get together. Less than 2 miles from my house (outside Gold Hill, Oregon) is the lost gold of a stage coach robbery. I have the Lost Treasure Magazine article on it. Supposidly still unfound. Bag of gold dust hidden at the bas of a Madrone tree. The old man who used to own the property is still living and right down the road from me. I'm just looking for a "partner" to hike on back (about a mile) and start swinging detectors with me. I have satellite footage to look at on my computer. I own 4 Whites. I always have at least one in the back of my truck. Get a hold of me at daviddaveinternational@gmail.com I can't be but more than 5 or 6 hours north of y'all.
Easy just click the one next to thumbs up silly sausage
Amazing finds! That was a hunt everyone dreams of! Congrats guys! I felt bad for Ron in this vid...poor guy! I guess just being there and witnessing such a hunt is a highlight in it's own!
No need to feel bad!! This is why we hunt together!! Sometimes you pass over it, sometimes your buddy! In the end a great treasure was found!
CA Relic Adventures w/ Ron Swenson & Mark Dayton The above says it all: Teamwork.. Someone said this was metal detecting porn.. Definitely..! Others said:the best live dig vids on YT.. Guaranteed..! Keep up the good work & keep posting these vids..! Using my blog sig so you know who this is.. SA
if coins could talk~
Thanks and I too would love to know the real story behind that coin spill. Appreciate you taking the time to post a comment.
Absolutely epic!!! Wow! Im gonna hunt for hours on end after watching this one!
Hey Vince!! Glad you got motivated by the Video! Get after it!! LOL Thank you for the view and the comment. Best of luck to you on your adventures!
I was born in Fairfield at what would soon be Travis AFB. My Dad was a founding member of SAC . When Dad retired from the Air Force, in 1959, we moved to Rancho Cordova. I started collecting coins as a kid. When the metal market spiked I sold a lot of my silver and bought gold. Then it just kept going up and I sold the Gold and bought a horse, my '06 Mustang Convertible, gun metal grey with just the right touch of blue in it's coat. I'm just dieing to figure out where you guys are digging. I recognize the soil. That beautiful river bottom land. I'm usually good at mysteries. Toe Touch ... I know this will ring a bell soon. Digging at night, that's so cool. I don't think this is fake. You guys had that. sound in your voices. It that sound that gets into the upper range when you make that "fifth straight pass" on the craps table. That could be about anywhere in the Valley of the Sacramento River. That loam that's been flooded for 100's of years. Again Congratulations. Thanks for a great story. When you said " we'll just knock him out". Ha Ha Ha. Shade's of River Pirates.
Thanks Tim,
Glad you are enjoying the videos. We have a good time and that is all that really matters. If you and others can get some enjoyment then that is nice bonus of our adventures.
Thank you so much for recording this! It was amazing to watch. Congrats!
CONGRATS GUYS!!!...By far one of the best caches/spills I've ever seen....HOLY COW...what a find.....THANKS for sharing this awesome experience. Best of luck and take us along if you go back!!!!
I’m so glad I’m just finding this channel! Now I have seven years worth of videos look back and see if they came here again! I hope they did and I hope they found a ton more! Congratulations that’s awesome
I can't believe what I just saw. What amazing finds!! Congrats guys. You and a lot of others will never forget seeing this. Crazy finds....WOW
All though this video is over 3 years old I still get excited to see the live digs. I'd give my left one for to find a five dollar gold piece. Nice going and HH from Texas
Thanks Don, Yeah this gets better with age!! LOL Thanks for the view and the comment and good luck getting your gold coin!! Got to dig a couple days in Texas a couple weeks ago. Couple more Dragoon buttons in my collection now!
The gold pieces are great wish I could find something like that that'd be a day for sure winner winner big chicken dinner
Hey Troy Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to post up a comment. Yeah that was on heck of a chicken dinner night!!
Fun to watch other diggers from around the world! 😎👍🍀 Greetings from the Netherlands! 🇳🇱
Thanks 👍 for stopping by and posting a comment. I would love to travel around and detect different countries but life seems to get in the way!! Appreciate the view and the comment!
Finding things from where you live is the best however! I found Roman and Medieval coins around the city where I live in and was born…! 😎👍🍀 That’s priceless… Good luck to you!
Thanks guys for such a exciting video. Cancer has sidelined me so to be able to enjoy such a once in a lifetime find was sure nice. Good luck on your future hunts.
Clay, sorry to hear about the cancer. Best wishes to you with your recovery.
Glad you enjoyed the video and take a peek at a few of the others. Not all of them are EPIC but most are still pretty entertaining with a couple of yahoos digging in the dirt and getting excited!! LOL
I have only found one Barber Half Dollar and it had been used as a "Rodeo Coin". It is where a lot of times one person would toss the coin up and the other person shot it as target practice. Found it with the bullet and all still lodged in it. This is simply amazing. Congrats!
That is a pretty cool find !!
CA Relic Adventures w/ Ron Swenson & Mark Dayton where do yo go to hunt
We research old home sites and gold camps that date 1850-1900
Simply amazing. I think I watched this video 5 times already today. Congrats gentlemen. Well done.
Lol! It’s amazing!
And amazing coins! 😍👌 Wow!!
Thank you 😁 That was a fun night. Appreciate the view and the comment! Best of luck to you!!
I am so jealous guys. You just made me go metal detecting tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration. Great video.
Envy is fine but don't be jealous!! hahaha. Just go find something great so I can be envious of your finds. Best of luck to you and glad the video is getting to head out!!
Very, very exciting stuff: it must be a real thrill to find a cache of great old coins! Like Gold Fever I would guess...
Hey Kirk-thanks for stopping by. You are correct it is quite a rush when some old coins pop out of the ground. For me it doesn't matter if i find them or see them found--it is still a rush!! But of course I prefer when i find them!! LOL
Wow that's simply incredible! Wow! Congrats on an awesome find!!
Thanks for watching and for commenting!! It was pretty exciting!!
LOL! You don't have to try and convince me that it was a pure exciting hunt! L O L !!
Very nice finds guys. You're right in saying it's a find of a lifetime. Last week I found a 1942-S Walking Liberty half, a 1942-S Mercury dime, a sterling silver men's ring, 11 Wheat pennies, a Buffalo nickel, a 1946 Jefferson nickel & the week prior a Wheat penny & a 1945-S Washington quarter all from the same property. I love these kinds of hunts. It truly is why we detect.
That was one great hunt guys ... It just don't get no better than that !
Congratulations my friends .
Thanks Wild Bill!! Tough to beat that hunt!!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
You no, I could hear the excitement in your voices. I think I would have stopped digging with metal shovels, but I think the ''gold fever'' had hit. Well done you guys. I know I would have given one of the double eagles to each of the others. You will have many good memories of this hunt. Go watch '' The Treasure of the Sierra Madre ''.
Thanks for the comment. I was hoping for a double eagle myself!! hahaha
WOW NOW HATS OFF well done awesome finds .thx for sharing .
Thanks for the view and the comment. Glad you enjoyed the vid. That was a fun night!!
What in the world?....WOW. The hunt of a lifetime for sure. Incredible finds. Simply incredible. Congrats.
Finally had a chance to watch this. OMG, what an amazing hunt. So happy for you guys. A moment not soon forgotten. Big congrats all around!
thats was just wow great finds for him
OMG is right!
Congratulation! So fun to watch your reactions! Thank you for sharing this! I got excited right along with you. Best metal detecting video I have seen to date!
Thanks Beth. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to post a comment. We had a good run for a few months but things have slowed down and the heat this summer has been brutal. have not swung a detector in over a month.
You know it!
@@RonSwensonRelicAdventures I can’t wait to catch up over the last seven years and see if you went back to the site and if you found a lot more! I hope so!
have had eight old video's of you guys in a playlist and i love these videos..
Thanks-- glad you still get a kick out of some of our finds!! That is the goal afterall. Simply to share some cool stuff with like minded people that can appreciate a good treasure hunt!! I too like to relive the hunts and someday when I can no longer hunt at least I will have the videos!!
thanks for reading and responding.@@RonSwensonRelicAdventures
Sorry it took a while. Been traveling and with the new Beta format my notifications got turned off.

All I can say is WOW!!! AMAZING FINDS!!! Congratulations fellas!!!

I agree 100 % with Adam Price's comment... shaking like a leaf on a tree just watching this take place on video, can't even imagine being there, congrats!!!
Thanks Jim, That find had us all shaking!! It was pretty exciting!!
Thanks for taking us along....I like western history, old coins, treasure hunting.....this was a 3fer for me.....congrats on your find and thanks again.
Thanks Zebra for stopping by!! Appreciate you taking the time to post up a comment.
I can't belive I am awake. It's 3:12am and still can't sleep due to a hang over on a week long water hunting and found lot of gold rings, silver and platinum. But this is my dream hunt that you did in reality dude. Maybe finding gold coin will be my forever dream. Congrats to the team and keep them coming. Happy hunt
Hey man--hope you are feeling better!! Congrats on the water finds!! Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to post a comment through blurry eyes and a pounding headache!! LOL Hopefully that godol coin pops out for you someday!! Thanks for stopping by!
Got to be the best ever day of detecting, Dreams do come true......Happy future hunting, and make sure you return often to this site. Who ever researched this place, very well done👌🏻👍🏻
Thank you for the view and the comment. We visited that site a few times and then a few more!! Funny thing is the site was gone when these cons were lost there. Very coincidental to find these 1880-90's coins in a site that was gone in the 1860's. But the road was still there so someone one the road just happened to loss them in that particular area. Lucky us!
Unbelievable finds gentlemen and yes, it can be attributed not only to excellent metal detecting but equally excellent researching of the sites. Well done and a much deserved treasure for you guys!
Thanks Mr T. Appreciate the comment.
see now this is why my wife bought me my first metal detector ever for christmas this year. I GET IT TOMORROW!!!! YEAH BABY...!!!! i BELIEVE IT WILL BE MY NEW HOBBY..!!!! THANKS FOR THE VIDEO...!!
Congrats on the new machine!! It is a great hobby as long as you take it in stride. These findings are not the norm!! But they are possible. Enjoy the hunt and let the finds be a bonus. that way you don't get discouraged if you are not finding a bunch of great stuff early on. The finds will come in time as you learn the machine and learn how to research proper areas to detect. Try to find a buddy to hunt with. Good Luck to you!!
Thanks for the advise. My wife and me was going to take up this hobby together....!!! we thought it would be best if i started out with a beginners detector which is a garrett ace 200. we was thinking that being i was a beginner we could make youtube vids as a learning tool.. mistakes often made by beginners.. maybe some people will give advise on them so other beginners can learn from.. as soon as i can figure out a name for the site i will let you know, hopping to hear some good advise from you and maybe a follow. once again thanks for the advise...
Amazing finds!! A coin hunters dream right here!! Congrats!!
Hey . Great video. I metal detect, mudlark and magnet fish here in N.C. USA. My name is Dirt Digging Granny. I dig with my young grandson. I hope to have my own channel one day soon. Keep the great videos coming. I love watching them!
Hi Sue, Thanks you for stopping by and best of luck while out hunting for goodies!! I love the nickname!! Thanks for the comment!!
I came back to watch this video again! I think this is the video that rekindled my interest in metal detecting!
I live in Houston and the type of dirt that we have to dig through (gumbo clay dirt), oy! You guys look like you can just dig with your hands!
Haha. Welcome back!! Digging in CA is all season related. We use a strong pick in the dryer summer months. Ground is hard as yours I’m sure. But Dec- April’s (if the rains come) it it pretty good digging. But I have cracked more than one pick handle prying in like-concrete dirt. But you do what ya gotta do when the detecting bug bites ya!! Get back into the hobby but for the right reasons!! The thrill of the hunt!! I have been a bit idle the last year plus and need to get my ass going again
It will never get old.
Hey bogipepper Thanks for stopping by and posting a comment. I too will never get tired of that video!!
Awesome gold and silver, crazy finds.
