Nice hunt! The object you showed us at 6:08 reminds me of an old window sash pin. They were hardware that was spring loaded and allowed for the sash to be held open at different levels. The pipe was probably my favorite find.
The big round thing looks like a pulley wheel, if it is made of wood and it has a grove around the edge with a hole in the middle then it is definitely a pulley wheel I mudlark in the rain too 😊
If u look down to the right of the head on the $2. Bill u will see the date it was made. Been watching u and subscribed since u were a young young lad love watching ur videos. Glad to see u back on muddy land❤😊
I'm an American numismatist, (student of coins bank notes ,etc.). The two dollar note is real. To find out for sure, look very closely at the areas where there's no ink. You should see tiny red or blue fibers scattered sparingly in the paper. This is one of the USA'S oldest anti-counterfieting tools. The older the note , the more fibers. That note type began as series 1976, all two dollar bills before that were "United States Notes" (redeemable at US Banks) and have red numbers and treasury seal. Yours is a " Federal reserve note" (the only kind currently in production) these have Green seal and numbers . Looks like maybe series 2013. Two dollar bank notes are among the first paper money ever issued by the US government in 1864. The $2.00 and $1.00 notes are the last ones of the old kind without modern anti-copying features. The design of the face side of your $2.00 bill is basically the same since 1928! Take time to look closely at it. It's a beautiful work of engraving art. 😊enjoy the video, by the way. I would love to see some more of the narrow gauge railway you work at!
Oh it’s not fake,they are out of print low denomination currency,and definitely fun to find! You can go to a bank anywhere and they’ll have them,they’re a popular gift that grandparents put in their grandkid’s birthday cards! Too bad there wasn’t a letter in the bottle too. And the seeds looked like sunflower seeds
Awesome video Adam. You're right at 8,000... soo close. At the time I'm sending this you're at 7.99k!! The "Note" in the bottle..it's probably real. It looks like the one I have from 1953,.. the year of my birth. If you read on the money, it will say, "THIS NOTE IS LEGAL TENDER FOR ALL DEBTS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE." So you REALLY did get a note in a bottle. 🤣
I'm asking this b4 watching so forgive me if it gets answered but I wondered if you ever metal detect out on the mudflats? I imagine if it's like my harbour you'd be driven mad by iron signals, I did find a 15kg lump of lead and several quality fishing lures n weights b4 I got water in my headphones jac
Hey hey hey you got a $2 bill. Yes it's real but most people just collect them because they aren't made anymore. Congrats on that find. I live here and don't have one.
$2 bills are quite collectable, I hope you do a bit of research on that because I have no idea how you tell a real one I know 5s 10s 20s etc have a purple colour and a water mark line like the 10s 20s we had in circulation not that long ago.
