Two lawns produce a PILE of cool old relics, along with a beautiful 1841 Seated Dime. Come along, and join me on a couple beautiful early spring days...
You’re like the Bob Ross of metal detecting. The videos are so calming and peaceful, all while painting us a pretty picture of the place you’re detecting. Keep it up! Great video! Nice hair!
Steve, I love following along with you especially when I can recognize some of these locations! Keeps me feeling connected to our time living in your neck of the woods! Good work!
That's great, Doug! After two years, I’m finding that I need to travel a little farther away each time…at least until I upgrade my detector, and can go back over ground I’ve already searched! 27° and cloudy this morning…with a frosted surface. Is it a little warmer there???
Thanks, we had a BLAST…which is always good with prospective hunters. My plan is to try giving them my spare Simplex in the yard; and if they do ok…take them out on some site searches! They seem to be catching on to the tones and techniques. And by the way, Adventures in Dirt is a frequent channel for my video perusal! Thanks for stopping by, Ken!
Wow, welcome to northern Pennsylvania…where early 1800’s is considered “OLD!”🤣🤣 It took hundreds of years for settlers to make their way into this mountainous wilderness, from the continent’s east coast.
Just found you youtube surfing, just subscribed after watching your vid...very well done, nice texts about your find while explaining...not too long on each item, keeps your attention...overall nicely done and looking forward to viewing all of your other videos👍
Awww, thanks! I live in a cool area for metal detecting, for sure. All my hunts aren’t this dense with relics…but there’s a TON of stuff the coin snipers didn’t bother with; so there’s much for me to learn about! This hobby is a BLAST!!!
Thanks Virgil! That dime surprised me, because it was so shallow?! Since it gave me a "double beep," I assumed it’d be a clad dime from 2014 or something! You just never know…
That's 100% an ox knob. the 7-c (might be an 8) thing is a buckle cover from a horse bridle. it stopped, the buckle from coming undone if the horse brushed against something. The large three holed buckle would lay on the horses' hip where three harness straps came together. The domed thing that made you think of jiffy pop. I think it's part of a tart pan, kind of like a muffin tin but smaller and more decorative. nice spot for a quick hunt.
Thanks a TON for the info! The set pin hole is what made me think ox knob…but just wasn’t certain. The bridal buckle cover makes sense…and the wear marks show that it was slid on and off. I figured the large iron buckle was horse tack… but only have experience with RIDING tack; not PULLING tack. The tart pan makes sense too. I’ve much to learn. I think that’s a pretty amazing pile of cool finds for 3 hours of hunting…especially for when there’s usually snow!?!
Awesome finds! I found one of those brass buckle covers 4 years ago on a 1857 farmstead built by German settlers to SE Wisc. Mine has no writing on back at all. I saw in comments that someone recognized what that buckle was! I wonder the age of it now? I was happy to find it! Rk.
