    I not only love the stuff you find but I really enjoy the teaching behind it all, showing how to you do it, explaining everything. I appreciate that! My father used to metal detect in and around Harper's ferry back when you were actually allowed. I'd love to get into this! Thanks man! Love the videos

    My husband and I got to refurbish an old homestead August through November of last year. We did a lot of digging and found a lot of amazing bottles, a couple of broken down wagons, and old appliances. The original homestead was from 1853.

      ***** While finding last years Christmas decorations in the attic,we discovered 2 nails from a Spanish Armada ship that ran aground at a beach over the road.
      There is absolutely no telling what you might find while doing anything with your house :)

    I know it's probably not worth anything, but I enjoy seeing the bits of pottery. It's like a direct window into the homelife of these people.

    Looks like you good old site there Beau! Got to love it when a large cent pops out of the dirt! Lot of nice pewter pieces coming out as well! Going to be a good place to come back to fairly often in the late fall and early spring! HH and as always enjoy your vids!

    I want to join others who have told you that they enjoy your videos. Thanks for bringing all of us along on your many hunting adventures! It has been very enjoyable. I get a jolt out of watching you find all the stuff you discover! I really like the videos in the various bodies of water. I hope we get to live long enough for you to carry on, and for us to keep watching. Things are so volatile with the humans on this planet !

    I found a pewter spoon/fork handle that looks exactly like the first one you found. I had no idea they were that old. I was detecting a site that is on the earliest map I can find of the area; 1861. Found an old counterfeit seated liberty half dollar there also.

    Nice finds!
    Say I finally got around to getting my fathers old Metal detector made in the 1970's a Whites Gold Master Metal Detector back up and working. The thing has 2 battery packs in there one for 2 x 4 and the other a 2 x 3 with nine volt connectors and such. I had to get both the battery packs replaced, and put on a couple of new 9 volt battery snaps on it. Now the thing works nicely.

    • @Gamz4pros

    • @evilwarcow

      Good news. I got it back to life. Just need to figure out the voltage and specs of one of the petentiometers on the thing which it is a snap kind and it is frozen in a single position.

    Is it weird at all that im an 18 year old female and i love your videos? haha I was raised camping and hiking through the woods since i was a baby, and i got really sick about 6 years ago so i havent been able to go, so i love watching your videos to remind me of better times. I plan on going back up to vermont with my dad this summer to go camping, so ill have to look around for stuff a lot more than when i was little.

    Killer hunt. Love the old home sites. Seldom find them any earlier than the early 1800's around this area of TN. I have been in several virgin home sties from the early 1800's (little ghost town) near where I live and get tons of flat buttons, but can't buy a coin from the period. Lots of pewter as well. Anyway, another great vid. Enjoy, and look forward to each. HH

  • @vickiolson1198
    @vickiolson1198 9 років тому

    As an antiques dealer who loves old pottery and china, I'd give my eyeteeth for a complete dish, bowl, or other item from any of those patterns you unearthed !!! And heck, what a great mosaic table top you could have made from those chips and it would make a wonderful conversation piece about your adventures!!! Something to treasure and hand down through the generations.!!!

    • @vickiolson1198
      @vickiolson1198 9 років тому

      ***** I'm so glad that you do. Somewhere in my stored price guides I have a book on the patterns of blue and white dinnerware from that era. Some of it is called transferware, some flow blue, and others are just hand painted ironstone.

    I got my first metal detector at Christmas and finally got the chance to use it a few days ago. (I was so excited) I watch tonnes of videos of detecting on beaches and knew this was my turn to find some goods. At the end of a 3 hour walk up and down the towel line I came back with a battery, 12 rusty nails and 3 bottle caps. Sadly I wont be posting my finds on UA-cam :(

    Thanks, for the ad, my first day out yesterday, I found oyster shell, what looks like bone , one several delepatetated penny, looks steel, but is missing where date should be,, I found out very little history of the area so far,, mostly a wide range of Indian territory near Nashiminy creek, I am focusing on a patch of woods, near there, but it seems it was a dump site in the 60's !and 70's. So shredded foil is killing the batteries and still don't understand, this Bounty hunter metal detector, Hay thanks again..happy hunting.

    I have a pile of pottery pieces laying ii my front yard now. The ground has frozen so I have to wait t get back out there with my new Garrett ACE 350. I originally found the spot with my Old Garrett Gold Scorpion. I want to get back to South Dakota to get the pottery chips in a lake. At one time the lake was a big tourist location. The pieces I found were old Chinese stuff with Oriental types of figures on them. I also want to get permission to go on my Grandpa's old homestead. I have one old ice skate from that location. There is also my baby cousin is buried there. I want to place some type of headstone there. It is to bad the old log cabin on the river is now under water. Besides my Dad and Grandparents living there the Lewis and Clark expedition camped there. That is another whole story in it self.
