About 25 to 30 years ago I found something in a stone wall. It was a small early 1900s metal box we were horribly excited with the anticipation of what we could find. We opened it up it was filled with a few small agates and a hand written prayer on a piece of paper. We read the prayer and put it back… lol

I spent alot of time in the woods as a kid in Ohio. I have found old musket balls, arrowheads, and other oddities at random. My best find ever is a bayonet as I was cutting across a pasture that had a couple neglected ponies in it. It had been raining and the ground was exceptionally muddy, the ponies were wanting our attention, and as I stopped to pet them, one happened to step into a muddy hole causing said bayonet to pop up out of the ground. From what I can find doing my research is that it is a French Lebel Rosalie bayonet, what it was doing I a field, under about 6" of mud in Southern Ohio I couldn't say. It's rusted up without the handle or the end bolster that kept the handle on. I have had it now for nearly 45+ yrs

That is so awesome that you did the overlay. Thank you..

I gasped out loud when you found that escutcheon plate with the handle and a button with fabric too. Great finds today!

I would be VERY excited about that trade token from Faneuil Hall! Such an historic treasure. Faneuil Hall was built in 1742 and was the location of several very important events leading to our nation’s independence. It is where colonists first protested the Sugar Act in 1764 and established the doctrine of “no taxation without representation.” Samuel Adams rallied the citizens of Boston to the cause of independence from Great Britain in Faneuil Hall, and George Washington toasted the nation there on its first birthday. That trade token might have even been a souvenir for the people who lived on that farm. Very exciting (to me, anyway).

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking us along. Have a Jesus filled day everyone Greg in Michigan

Didn’t notice the dirt on your face until you pointed it out.

Brad is quickly becoming my favorite Metal detector channel. He wastes no time with fluff and gets down to it. His commentary is interesting and to the point and he always seems to hunt some awesome colonial areas!

Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers, one million is right around the corner.

Nice find of the spoon. I can picture it being used on a old pot. That hole in the center of the largie is interesting. Nice escutcheon and handle👋👍

That token is amazing! Another great video as usual.

👍😊 well you’re dealing with rain but you had a good haul.

Nice job Brad!! Happy belated Ash Wednesday

I would have never have noticed the dirt until you pointed it out. Then that’s all I could see. 😁 Wonderful hunt very interesting finds!

Hi Brad, the spoon you found in the wall is usually known as a serving spoon. Some awesome everyday items which to me are more valuable in some ways as they are very personal to the people that farmed the land there. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

I'm a metal detector myself up in northeast ny. Watched all your video's.

I've dug civil war buttons with string and or material attached a few times. Thanks for sharing.

Thank You for the adventure! ! ! !

Another great video , that spoon bowl really stood out with the other finds .

Hi Brad, I’m always watching your videos. I hit the thumbs up even before I watch. I don’t always comment, but, today I had too. Sunshine you could have dirt all over your face and it wouldn’t distract me from watching. You are that good. A real true metal detectorist would not be one without dirt somewhere. Lol. Best to the family. Joyce Connecticut,United States 🇺🇸. ❤️

Quite a nice hall! Great day❤

That hand repaired handle is AMAZING!!!😍

the dirt wasnt distracting until you pointed it out..THANKS BRAD! :)

Faneuil Hall token... wow. That's a haul to get there from the VT/NH border, even today with cars (2 hrs from Brat). About a weeks travel maybe avoiding wolves & coyotes. They must've moved there to VT.

Thanks for another nice video.

HEY! Good morning Brad and thumbs UP!

Speaking of altered large cents out here in Michigan my buddy found an 1845 one that instead of saying "one cent" it was altered so it said "one cu*t". Apparently it was a brothel token. He found it in a very rural middle of nowhere outskirts of Metro Detroit area. It's very hard for me to imagine a brothel out in this spot but what an amazing piece of History

Thanks Brad...enjoyed!

Thanks for the video. Coins are the most interesting to me. Safe Journey! CHOLULA!!!

That's your dirt fishing third eye!

It was wet in PA too. I love the little silver spoon and the tender button with the attached cloth. Thank you, Brad. I hope you dry out! ❤️

Nice bridle rosette.That escutcheon is very rare in that condition. Nice buttons & one with cloth attached. Very cool token.

Brad just came back from shopping, great timing.

It is extremely evident that some one believed in re-purposing things according to the various items you found. This person used what they had to go forward, even if it meant putting a hole in a coin or repairing the dresser. No computer program could have done that. Hats off to those who use their mind.

The yellow brown color of the fabric was made with black walnut husk

Any time spent in nature is a awesome day

Maybe one day you will find a real treasure box that someone left years ago! You left a treasure box to be found so one day may be your turn. I found an old cigar box in my basement and it contained old moldy cigars! Lol oh well it was exciting for 10 seconds. Take care 😀

Another great adventure thank you the spoon in the wall wow

Excellent finds! Love the fabric still with its button, the silver spoon, the escutcheon, and really, all the rest. Thanks for letting us tag along.😊

LOL @ the Moose pellets marking the spot!

Absolutely love your music Brad, it is so iconic. Well done friend.

The coin with the hole : a washer makes a lot of sense (no pun intended) but a child’s toy is more fun to think of . Very cool either way.

great stuff Brad thanks

Love the finds and the music you play. Relaxing. I also watch Terra Germania and he basically does the same with shots of nature and music as well when he is out detecting. Kudos to you both.

Brad, everytime I watch your videos, all I want is a playlist of all your music!

Silver rat-tail? Never seen that before... Very cool! Great video, as always :)

Really love your work! You’re an inspiration in the Metal Detecting field in making quality videos. I’m just starting my channel (not this account) and would love to colab with you in a few years when I’ve built mine up. Either I come to USA or you to Australia. Hope you’re well!

It's so funny how different metal detecting is around the world. In Montana we'd be so excited to get one of those buttons or large cents.

Great video Brad, I am amazed that you can find such interesting things every Friday. Looking forward to next Friday !

The repaired drawer pull is incredible. What a personal story touch on that find!

Nice digs Bra👍👍😘😘d! Happy swingin n diggin!!

Thanks for showing some of the actual digging. I realize its a lot of extra work.

Brad, that is a great haul for the day, well done.

Awesome overlay to show us the original look of the holed coin

That bracket fungus is very beautiful. I am glad that you get out & see these beautiful things & share them with us. Thankyou.

I found a bunch of Patriot flour metal fold over tags in a stone wall. Makes your heart jump when you do get a signal lol. Good job Brad! Congrats on the finds!

You findings proove that people lived in those woods long before we were Thanks for sharing🌄

1st, thank you for braving the rain, 2nd, thanks for the laugh. Loved the input about the dirt on your face.. that's alot of buttons! The escutcheon is so cool. I enjoyed your video and all your finds. You're always my favorite! I noticed the changes. You exude talent period!

It's just a given to have a dirty face. First time returning from medal detecting the other day, the wife asked if I was detecting or playing in the dirt. I said, both, I even had to laugh when I looked in the mirror. Loving my xp orx. Thanks for sharing. Now I just have to find some old homesteads in the UP of MIchigan. Thanks for sharing the finds Brad. I sure like you telling us a story about each find.

Vermont native here raised in ludlow now live in the south - Georgia I enjoy your videos brings back good times in Vermont

That's a nice pile of goodies on the day Brad!! That escutcheon is a beauty. Plus a piece of silver. Happy hunting and be well

How fun. What a great haul. I love watching your videos. You always try to give history of the area you're detecting and the items you find. Love your channel here!!! Thank you for sharing all your escapades.

the silver spoons handle was probably made into a ring

Nice hunt Brad!

Congratulations, those are some amazing finds! Love the brass batwing pull and spoon bowl. Thanks for sharing!

Great episode Brad 😁 my son's and I love the channel and all the amazing history you save! I find your channel very inspiring and educational! Keep up the great work brother 💯🤘🍀😁

I never noticed The smudge of dirt on your forehead until you pointed it out now I can’t take my eyes off of it! Thanks for that! Geez… Love your detecting…..Thanks for Sharing….

All in all you had a great hunt! Congrats on finding a rat tail silver spoon bowl! The escutcheon was a nice find as well. Never can have enough buttons. Could come in handy!

Great saves Brad! I have a Boston Faniuel Hall hard times token also. A different one from yours. Love the handful of buttons! Sweet holed largie, silver spoon and great video!

That escutcheon was mounted thru the drawer front with the ( cotter pin looking metal) before the use of screws . Very common on old pieces. Great find!

Brad the music you created was especially great in this video. I dig it. 😎 The spoon in the wall might have been a baby spoon - a family of giants might have lived there.

Excellent day Brad. Enjoyed the video as always. Happy hunting!

Maybe the silver handle to the spoon ..... was made into a bracelet for a special lady .

Bunch of great finds ( ; Love silver spoon piece, I just found my first recently. I love hunting in the woods on a rainy day, nothing better to do as I do landscaping. HH and take care

I really enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.

Entertaining as always, thank you for your efforts.

Your a little late for Ash Wednesday. Thanks for starting my day on a good note.

Nice button haul Brad … and congrats on that silver spoon bowl and escutcheon ⚒

Nice video Brad, love those nature shots. If you were on a farm and needed a washer, it was easier to pull out a large cent out of your pocket and hammer a nail through it!

awesome looking finds Brad

Love watching!!! I bought a metal detector and gear. Just don't use it as much as I'd love to.

Congrats on 100k subs

Farm out man .I hope you and your family are doing good .God bless you all .✌

Good seeing ya again nice fine on token be safe up there.

Nice hunt Brad I really enjoy your videos keep them coming. 🇺🇸

Great finds, love ur videos.

Holed large cents were used in any situation where you need a spacer, a washer, even a little added weight, such as a weight driven clock.

Awesome! I love your videos! I found a double bladed axe head in the stone wall that was the north boundary of my house in Maine.

Grats on hitting the 100K subscribers, you deserve them.

Good to see you swinging the detector again, use the water bottle to clean and it shows the object better when wet. Thanks

Brad great day for you young man awesome fines thank you for your video 👍🛐🙏
