I can't imagine taking finds from a detectorist. The finds are special due to the process it took to find them, they mean almost nothing to the homeowner unless they are something personal. I could see wanting pictures of the finds to add to the story of the property, but unless a valuable treasure is found I can't imagine taking all that stuff from the person who found it.
I might be prejudice to the comment because not only do I detect but I had a home owner do me dirty. One permission I had was an early pre Rev War homesite in New Jersey right where Washington's army chased the British from Trenton on X-mas to Sandy Hook where they escaped by ship. All of the surrounding farm fields around this home site produced a ton of Rev War relics that suggested either a skirmish occured or troops camped over night in that area. After we had an amazing few days hunting the property next to this and the farmer who allowed us to hunt saw everything we dug was offered to see everything we dug in case there was something he could trace to his family he was amazed at the amount of activity that happened there but he didn't want to take anything from us because he made a great point which I often bring up if I try negotiating permission. He said his family bought the property in the mid 1800's so he has no family ties to anything from the colonial era so he didn't want to take anything after we spent so many hours (days) detecting. A few weeks later his neighbor called and asked if we wanted to hunt his property. Well that's a no brainer. When we showed and while talking before we started they did tell us they wanted any artifacts they can trace to their family who fought in the "Civil War". I told them that there were NO CIVIL WAR battles here in New Jersey. While it isn't common we do pull CW US belt plates and bullets like Minnie balls and musket balls which are a smaller caliber. He said OK anything questionable as in it's from the Rev War or 1812 we can figure out a split. That's a broad statement but in the deal we were allowed to keep all coins, split the relics from the Rev War and/or 1812 and C.W. era finds were theirs with family related stuff like engraved rings or engraved name plates and such. After a long day of digging a crap load of everything including garbage we all showed them everything. Well instantly there was NO split on the Rev buttons and a small wreath buckle half missing the tongue half. My friend offered to give them something if he could keep the wreath buckle because he's never found one. The guy got arrogant and wouldn't let him keep it. Then he asked to see the coins we dug and as he was looking at the coppers and a Spanish Reale he said he feels it should all belong to him for the historical significance lol. Historical significance my ass anyone could've dropped those coins and it could've been years after the war. My buddy who already lost his wreath buckle right then just had a Jersey copper, a Fugio Cent and a toasted KG2 with a couple indians and Barber quarter also taken and he lost it. He said we just handed you Rev War relics some people will never find or see in person handed to you just for owning a field that your ancestors didn't settle on so it's not even possible that your family has any ties to any of these things and now you want the coins that anybody could've dropped even somebody who didn't live there. The next thing I know they're arguing because he's mad as hell being we shook hands on the deal that we at the very least could keep the old coins that we pretty much knew we were gonna find and split the relics and just that fast it turned into we wasted a whole day busting out butts off digging probably 500 holes for nothing. So the next thing I know he says you want it "you greedy b*sr*Rd" take it. He grabs all of the trash out of the truck and dumps this massive pile of crap that we all had dug out on the driveway where we were talking and the owner started yelling get that f'en sh*t off my driveway and get the F off of my property!!! Wow things went from zero to crazy in seconds. So I pushed him towards to truck because I didn't want him to totally flip and wind up in jail and we left without taking any of HIS property as he insisted. Two days later we were detecting the field on the other side of him when here he comes with the police wanting to talk to us about dumping litter on his property. But before the police followed up behind him towards us the guy tried to get that property owner over to throw us out. I explained the entire situation pretty much how I just explained it to the police and the officer said we did the right thing because had we taken his property (that garbage) we would've been stealing his property once he said he wants to keep EVERYTHING we dug. It was a way the cops took our side without saying the cops took our side. The farmer next door said we're good to go and he walked away and he went back to working on his equipment and we hunted all day and the next day and had two great days hunting there and that farmer didn't care what we found and we offered to show him everything and he said I don't want anything from you guys "I have enough junk in my driveway" HE WAS MAKING A JOKE ABOUT DUMPING THE JUNK. Then he said it would still be in the ground rusting away if you didn't dig it up. After we thanked him as we were leaving on day 2 and he said he was talking about what happened there with another neighbor and he said he told his other neighbor that he'd rather we find out they have a Karen next door then he did lol 😳 at the time I didn't know what a Karen was but I just laughed and went along with it. Well we live and we learn. If I was a content creator I might think about it but I'm never hunting another property again to find things for some selfish person. I may look for a lost ring but I'm gonna make sure they agree not to care about anything else I may find and not show them I'll show them pics and tell them about it later 🤣
@@jeanponce2017 Yeah I've been concerned about similar things happening to me, ended up hitting the local parks and ended up with 40 silver coins this season. Safe to say it worked out lol!
I want to keep everything I find unfortunately when you are on someone’s property it is all their property. I always start off with if I dig it I keep it unless the value is great enough to sell. I never offer to show everything just anything of great significance. I decide if the value is great or of significance. If the owner wants to do the digging they can borrow my extra detector and have at it lol. When a property owner wants to keep everything I let them by leaving it in the ground. The exception to the above is when looking for lost items or detecting a historical site.
I am honestly at the point where I only care about rare or bucket list items. I give about everything to homeowners unless they don't want it, most actually don't. I do have 1 place I have dig for years that I happily give the owner everything. Doesn't bother me, I enjoy digging it, then giving back also!
Gotta give you credit for being willing to turn everything over, 100% respect. Years ago I made an agreement with a homeowner, house built in 1730 in Acushnet Mass- I'd show him everything and we'd sell and split anything of value. Of course I found a Pine Tree Shilling. Hundreds of people questioned why I sold it. Like you, I gave my word, done deal. Merry Christmas men!
Thank you for keeping your word to provide what was found to the owner. I did the same for folks metal detecting. After what was shown to me and some coins and relics were impressive. I let the guys keep what was found on our farm. It's integrity that matters . Philip Spencer Ohio
Did you notice the large cent during the wrap up at 18:39 appears to be modified for a brothel coin. instead of the phrase one cent on the reverse it reads something naughty.
I’m from England, but my father’s side of the family have been in the U.S. since the early 1700’s, my 5th great grandfather, was a major during the Revolutionary War, and a well known cabinet maker from New Hampshire. I’ve seen one of his pieces on Antiques Roadshow, worth over $80k. We also have copies of land grants for service during the War of 1812.
I'm in the capital region looking to get into this. Could you help with it or are you a closed group. I'll be starting literally from scratch but enthusiasm for years to enjoy it.
I used to “door knock” I always struggled with the first words to say because the majority of people didn’t care about keeping the finds. I would say right away that I don’t sell anything that I find, I’m not here for the monetary value of the finds, I’m here for the history of the finds/location. I lived in “Washingtons Crossing” Pennsylvania and our subdivision was actually inside the state park where metal detectors are not allowed. So I always offered land owners a view and if it was an issue, I left them with the property owner. You guys are always so courteous about what you do, I can’t see anyone having any issues with the group. Nice to see Muck’s new kicks, it would seem that he intends on continuing the hunt. Happy and safe holidays everyone 🎉❤.
Kurt. Plan on bringing the Boyz down to SC in February. I have a huge plantation permission down here & you are going to love it! Over 4,000 acres! Be well, Al-Fu
Hey Kurt and Muck great hunt. Muck love the Black Powder Piece. Congrats on your Copper also. Kurt Congrats on your Coppers IHPs and the 2 Cent Coin. Nice Relics all the way around. Take Care
It's really admirable of you to be honest with your finds and giving them to the home owner. That 2 cent piece was awesome. I hope to see that place again. Thanks for sharing your adventure. 😀
I learned something new today about the IH penny. I always thought it was a dude on the front, and not a lady. Thanks for clearing that up. 😂 Love your videos. Thanks
I do admire that you hunt "for the thrill of it" and do not care if you keep the finds. I have done this as well and sometimes it hurts, but just for a little while. Fortunately I have not had to "give up" anything that I really felt strongly about, but it may happen and that is what it is! Its the agreement and you gotta stick to it. Thanks again for the always fun video and merry christmas to the hooverboy's nation!
The brass piece is called a "stand-off" and is part of the lightning protection system, as you guessed. I noticed that the LP conductor was flopping around. You can hammer in the stand-off and crimp the little metal tag end around the conductor cable to hold it in place. It's pretty common for the cable to get yanked by a lawn mower and pop the standing cable off the tree. I'm an Arborist and have hammered in my share of them.
Was that brass piece found under or near that big Oak? I noticed that copper wire running down the base of it. I found one similar to that one under a huge oak that had a lightning protection system installed on it. The brass piece I found was one of the guides to run the ground wire to the ground.
Either get the permission or not. If you leave all finds with the old home is the deal? I would be fine with that. Lobby for a bucket lister or just be glad you got the permission. Kurt & Muck love digging old sites. Congrats you guys! Maybe home owner will see our nice comments and flip the nice 2 cent to Kurt? Rk.
Thanks for being an honest detectorist. After plodding through miles of paddocks, using expensive metal detecting machines and your added experience of years, you find treasures that would end up rotting in the ground. In the instance of your 2 cent coin, it’d be so easy to not show it on video and just stick it in your pocket, to take home.
To leave everything behind is amazing. You know that homeowner was blown out of his mind seeing what artifacts were on his property. He’s going to go buy a metal detector now and see what he can find.
copper heaven.....theres gold there somewhere....im guessing a fine vf 2.5 incused indian head 1900's fraction gold.... incoming! merry christmas everybody. ...good luck to all.
That first find you have in your hand I found the EXACT same one about a week ago in Easton MD detecting. Very unique look to it. Let me know if you have any luck identifying it!
It always gets to me when a land owner wants ALL the finds! I don’t mind giving them the best item or even half but to allow the detectorist to keep part of the finds is crazy! They would have nothing to show if it wasn’t for the detectorist! Our time our $1k worth of equipment but I guess I’ve just been lucky and never had anyone request all or actual any of the finds but I do take and item found that’s not trash and make a shadow box of it and take it back with a thank you card so maybe that helps me.
Maybe the home owner is creating the complete history of the property and framing the finds on the wall. That would be cool. I guess either way they belong to them. Have a great day and Happy Holidays to you and yours
Merry Christmas to you Kurt and family to Muck and family toward and family to Billy and family to Bobby and family and the rest of the goofy goobers and their families...wat a year of outstanding videos and finds continue into 202r🍀🙏🏽 Need to see Bob Bill and the rest of the boys a few times this summer...
MY GUESS ON THE BRASS SPIKE IS A HOLDER FOR LIGHTNING GROUNDING WIRE FOR LIGHTNING RODS. LOOKS LIKE IT HIT SOMETHING HARD AND IT TURNED THE POINT AROUND. SINCE THOSE BIG TREES ARE GROUNDED THAT'S WHAT PUTS ME ON THAT TRAIN OF THOUGHT.
Great hunt. Strange not to find any shiny. Maybe next trip. Given the age range, got to be an old silver in there somewhere. Hope the owner is enjoying all that cool stuff. Thanks!
Hey Curt- are you going to give us a report on the legend? I own one and like it but after you've been around the block with Garrett (my first detector) and then Equinox and now playing with the legend for you friend that works for Nokta, I'm curious to know where you'll land.
I understand the want to kept the two center coin , but it’s cool that the history stays with the farm ! You’re all lucky you get places like that to hunt !
Can’t wait to watch! Just wondering, do you not point the camera up as much because the homeowners don’t want you to show their land? Or is it another reason? I oh like getting a feel of the surrounding and where you’re detecting! Thank you for the video have a good one!
id say the way its filmed is 100% for privacy. For one, it keeps your viewers that may live close by you from being able to find your permissions. Also in the same sense, it keeps the land owners from being hounded by potentially hundreds of calls and door knocks of people trying to get permission.. id imagine if I was bothered like that, a fence would go up with a sign to prevent anyone from coming or even asking.
What’s going on guys? Hope everyone had a great Christmas, I’m just getting into detecting and was wondering if you had any opinions on the NOKTA simplex BT next generation?
Go to the town hall. Records. There's maps going as far back as cartographer have drawn them for property lines, county, lines, registering census that includes (if there at the time of surveying) homes, barns, fields, shops, water, woods. They're amazing to look though. Just ask your town hall to pull them depending on dates and areas. Some are super detailed while others is educated guessing. Best of luck!

A flying eagle.and a 2 center! Wow 👍👍
your killing me Kurt!!! LOL..up here on the hudson in NY I am running out of old houses for my group...thanx for all your help
I'm in the capital region looking to get into this. Could you help with it or are you a closed group. I'll be starting literally from scratch but enthusiasm for years to enjoy it.

18:30 appears to be a valve with the stem broken off. That's something odd to find in a field.
Kurt. Plan on bringing the Boyz down to SC in February. I have a huge plantation permission down here & you are going to love it! Over 4,000 acres!
Be well,
Al-Fu
I completely agree about personal history to the property, but coins then, were no more personal to an individual or property, then they are today.
Hey Kurt and Muck great hunt. Muck love the Black Powder Piece. Congrats on your Copper also. Kurt Congrats on your Coppers IHPs and the 2 Cent Coin. Nice Relics all the way around. Take Care
I wonder if the hunters have to leave what game they take with the homeowner too.😉
Howdy Hoover Boys.... Thanks for your content!
It's really admirable of you to be honest with your finds and giving them to the home owner. That 2 cent piece was awesome.
I hope to see that place again. Thanks for sharing your adventure. 😀
Thank you Guys,You put in the Work 😊
Lovin the legend!
Great Finds!!! Merry Christmas To All of the Hoover Boys!!! God Bless Us All!!!
Good evening gentlemen 😁 As always, from Shreveport Louisiana.
I learned something new today about the IH penny. I always thought it was a dude on the front, and not a lady. Thanks for clearing that up. 😂

That whatever that was was a broken valve out of an engine 👍👍👍😁
Kurt your little brass hook could be a hoof cleaning hook, that Ferreirs would use
It's always fun watching the big copper boys
I have never heard a can opener call a church key, that is so awesome 🤣🤣🤣
I like that you guys offer to leave the finds with the site!
Nicely done guys, nice finds I enjoyed the video. 🇺🇸
That brass piece is a tree nail for the copper grounding system on the trees
The brass piece is called a "stand-off" and is part of the lightning protection system, as you guessed. I noticed that the LP conductor was flopping around.

Shoe buckle frame was cool!
You two guys killed it...What a sight....Great coins and relics....Merry Christmas to all the HooverBoys....👍
Awesome hunt great finds The Strange spike looking thing you found is a lightning rod wire holder from the early 1900s or even earlier
Its not fair where it ALL goes to the homeowner. Half, i can understand, but not all.
Cool hunt thanks for sharing!!!!
Excellent video Kurt & Muck. I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas
Great day, my flying took a 20m vinegar bath and then cleaned easily w qtip
Thumbs up guys🎄👍
Not a bad bit of Diggin on the day at all.
Thanks for being an honest detectorist. After plodding through miles of paddocks, using expensive metal detecting machines and your added experience of years, you find treasures that would end up rotting in the ground. In the instance of your 2 cent coin, it’d be so easy to not show it on video and just stick it in your pocket, to take home.
Beautiful 2-piece. Very nice to give it all back to the owner. Good Karma. Nice job fellas.
Thanks for the video Kurt wishing you and your family and the rest of the gang a merry Christmas
Awesome hunt. Incredible finds. Thanks for sharing!!!
Great coin finds. Looked like a cool but beautiful day to be out .
To leave everything behind is amazing. You know that homeowner was blown out of his mind seeing what artifacts were on his property. He’s going to go buy a metal detector now and see what he can find.
Have a Merry Christmas to all the Hoover Boys!! 🇺🇸🎄🇺🇸
You shall be blessed with a really good find! That would be hard to give up that 2 cent piece . Great Vidaayyooo!❤
copper heaven.....theres gold there somewhere....im guessing a fine vf 2.5 incused indian head 1900's fraction gold.... incoming! merry christmas everybody. ...good luck to all.
Great finds guys!
Happy Holidays to all the Hoover Boys past and present and ba humbug to Ebeneezer who claimed all your finds.
This is a Valve Off the Motor!! & More Than !/2 Gone on Top Valve!!
That first find you have in your hand I found the EXACT same one about a week ago in Easton MD detecting. Very unique look to it. Let me know if you have any luck identifying it!
Some tree 🌳, probably a 3str (take 3 people to hug it ) where there’s buttons there coins , well that’s what we hope 🧑🦯🇺🇸 Good day sir ✊🏻
It always gets to me when a land owner wants ALL the finds! I don’t mind giving them the best item or even half but to allow the detectorist to keep part of the finds is crazy! They would have nothing to show if it wasn’t for the detectorist! Our time our $1k worth of equipment but I guess I’ve just been lucky and never had anyone request all or actual any of the finds but I do take and item found that’s not trash and make a shadow box of it and take it back with a thank you card so maybe that helps me.
Maybe the home owner is creating the complete history of the property and framing the finds on the wall. That would be cool. I guess either way they belong to them. Have a great day and Happy Holidays to you and yours
Nice finds.. 2 cent piece is my coin. I want to find in 2024..
Muck's triangle shaped saddle thingy looks like a bugle snack
Merry Christmas to you Kurt and family to Muck and family toward and family to Billy and family to Bobby and family and the rest of the goofy goobers and their families...wat a year of outstanding videos and finds continue into 202r🍀🙏🏽
Need to see Bob Bill and the rest of the boys a few times this summer...
MY GUESS ON THE BRASS SPIKE IS A HOLDER FOR LIGHTNING GROUNDING WIRE FOR LIGHTNING RODS. LOOKS LIKE IT HIT SOMETHING HARD AND IT TURNED THE POINT AROUND. SINCE THOSE BIG TREES ARE GROUNDED THAT'S WHAT PUTS ME ON THAT TRAIN OF THOUGHT.
That first piece of brass looks like a candle holder back then.
Great hunt. Strange not to find any shiny. Maybe next trip. Given the age range, got to be an old silver in there somewhere. Hope the owner is enjoying all that cool stuff. Thanks!
NICE Kurt!! Merry Christmas Hoover BOYS! JJ
the two beautiful indian head cents sure remind me of the roman early barberus radius Coins, awesome episode
the "piston" is infact a valve
Kurt I love the 2 cent piece you and muck do a heck of a job. Thank you very much.
I have a lot in common with that two cent piece with a little we, haha! Nice find and great hunt!
Yes! I love Wednesdays and Hoover Boys videos.
You did pretty good. Merry Christmas to all. Have fun.
Nice finds. Wish you all a merry Christmas. Best wishes from Germany.
That was a great dig Kurt.
Merry Christmas everyone.
BIG COPPERS BABY 🔥
Awesome hunt thank you so very much for sharing hope you have a wonderful holiday 👍👍❤️
Awesome hunt. Merry Christmas to all of the Hoover fam!
I wonder if the curved copper was a tool to hook and close buttons on boots in the past.
Awesome finds!
Awesome hunt!!
Awesome.
broken valve there out of an old engine. shes got a story to tell!
Hey Curt- are you going to give us a report on the legend? I own one and like it but after you've been around the block with Garrett (my first detector) and then Equinox and now playing with the legend for you friend that works for Nokta, I'm curious to know where you'll land.
I understand the want to kept the two center coin , but it’s cool that the history stays with the farm ! You’re all lucky you get places like that to hunt !
So now you have some hours on the legend Whats your opinion? I love mine. Happy hunting
Nice hunt and finds Congrats Guys 👊
Can’t wait to watch! Just wondering, do you not point the camera up as much because the homeowners don’t want you to show their land? Or is it another reason? I oh like getting a feel of the surrounding and where you’re detecting! Thank you for the video have a good one!
id say the way its filmed is 100% for privacy. For one, it keeps your viewers that may live close by you from being able to find your permissions. Also in the same sense, it keeps the land owners from being hounded by potentially hundreds of calls and door knocks of people trying to get permission.. id imagine if I was bothered like that, a fence would go up with a sign to prevent anyone from coming or even asking.
Would love to hunt that field! It is THAT time again----Merry Christmas to all!
18:50 is that a ONE “not CENT” coin??? Zooming it it sure looks like it.
That definitely appears to be a U not a E. Good eye!!
I wonder if the spike thing is a "Tommy Stick" for candles?

I believe the piece that you called flim flam is a broken engine valve.
I think the brass thing looks like a hook that would hold a pot over a fire pit.....?
I sure hope the home owner is building a shadow box for all the good stuff.....
wonder what the owner did with finds? Sold them on ebay?
What’s going on guys? Hope everyone had a great Christmas, I’m just getting into detecting and was wondering if you had any opinions on the NOKTA simplex BT next generation?
What do you mean when you say you checked your maps? Is there an app that helps with finding really old sites? Nice finds also!
Go to the town hall. Records. There's maps going as far back as cartographer have drawn them for property lines, county, lines, registering census that includes (if there at the time of surveying) homes, barns, fields, shops, water, woods. They're amazing to look though. Just ask your town hall to pull them depending on dates and areas. Some are super detailed while others is educated guessing.
Best of luck!
