Early French flintlock pistol!? How cool is that?!! Oh, these finds are super different than anything I would ever see down in Arkansas. I am hooked on these videos.
my village here in the uk was mentioned in the doomsday book 1086 and is built on a beach with a small cliff at the back of the village. all i ever find metal detecting is modern day stuff. ring pulls modern coins etc. but when I've done building work on some of the houses mainly reinforced concrete floors (houses all on sand) i have found a roman coin, cannon balls, stone cannon balls, brass beer barrel tap, clay pipes, sliver sugar spoons, a whole boat, even a German iron cross which is weird. gave it all to my local museum.
@@Eric_Detectorist not much chance of that here pretty much everywhere has been disturbed at some time or other . anyway thank you for the very interesting video
I don't think they used those cut Cooper pieces a arrowheads. I think they used them a jewelry, in my opinion. Just like the ear piece you found on this video. They did use Cooper to make arrowheads and spearheads, but not sure that was one you found. Great finds. Awesome
Depth in my area is so bizarre, sometimes I find items right on the surface and other times items are over a foot deep. I guess it depends on a lot of different factors.
@Eric_Detectorist My Dad, 3 brothers and myself detected back in the 1970's and early 80's. We concentrated on Civil War relics with a little bit of coin shooting. We had permission on 2 privately owned farms on the Antietam battlefield, also one on the South Mountain battlefield and also the Monocacy battlefield. They were great times, I was just 11 when we started. My brother also lived near Charleston SC. we're we also detected. Those were the good old years. You have some interesting areas up there. Lots of history, are the sites in wilderness areas or near populated places. I love that time frame in history lots happened then, that's for sure. Best of luck, look forward to many amazing finds.
@@C.M.R.Artifacts-qu1ey being so far north I don’t get many Civil War relics. I’d love to hunt that era as well. I hunt a variety of locations. Some are deep in the woods others are right in peoples yards.
I've detected for years in Southern CA. The items your pulling out of the ground are completely different from what we find here. This area was settled by the Spanish. Then the Mexicans then Americans. Nice to see find from the French.
I lived in Pennsylvania where Washington crossed the Delaware River. I actually lived in the state park (subdivision predated the park) I can spit and find colonial relics but the relics he finds are amazing to me because we might find some French relics but nothing like this. I’m new to this channel
I just ran across your videos and subscribed after the first one. Great content and finds! I wish digging here in Southwest Missouri was that easy, we have to dig through rocks, roots and more rocks to recover finds!!🤣😂🤣
@@Eric_Detectorist I have been hunting mi for a few years now and I never seen that stuff and I threw out a awful lot I'll look at my finds a little harder, I thought I had cut silver before I thought it was trash
