This is a follow-up video to the tour of the Jacksonville, Alabama home that Gen. P. G. T. Beauregard used as a headquarters in October 1864.
I was granted permission so early in the morning I began metal detecting a historic 1850 home site. I was informed that the property has been detected many, many times before by historical societies, college historians and archaeologists. However, I was grateful for the opportunity to metal detect the property.

What a privilege, to get the opportunity to detect that property! I love old iron, so I think the hook is very cool!❤

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

Me too. I had to leave it with the house. I would feel bad if I took it.

Very cool that that they allow folks to detect there!

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

Lane is very cool and he loves history like we do, just in a different way. He is into structural preservation. I told him I would bring another detector with me the next time I visit so he can detect too.

I totally agree with you Mike. Getting the opportunity to detect an historic place. Sometimes that’s better than what you found. They need to bush hogged that back area. You definitely are cleaning that place up. He seemed like a pretty nice guy. Thanks for sharing Mike

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

He is working on clearing out the back of the property. Good thing I was invited back... plus he is going to try to set up a hunt at some other historic homes too.

@JusDirtfishin 4 месяца назад

That’s awesome. Connections are the key. It definitely looks like it has some potential. Good luck when going back

What a great place to detect ! I am sure you are thinking there just has to be more there. The iron piece is interesting

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

That is exactly what I am thinking. I was there for only a few hours, and one of those hours was spent hacking through the picky bushes. I was invited back. We'll see what the next visit brings

What a great location. The owner seemed really nice, glad you had the opportunity to detect there!

@Metal-Detecting-NC 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much! I was invited back after that picky-bush area is mowed.

awesome man just the chance to explore and dig an old site

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

The experience was well worth it. Some hunts go like that, but the hunt is not over at that site. Thanks for watching

Cool old iron piece and a terrific permission Mike👋👍

@Metal-Detecting-NC 3 месяца назад

What's even better is that I am invited back after all that brush is bush-hogged. Thank you for watching

You need me there, ask Metal Detecting with Randy I am a trail blazer LOL. Like the trade. Thanks for sharing

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

All that area should be bush-hogged by the time I re-visit. Some sites are like that when you have limited time on a permission. Thanks for watching.

@treasuretom13 4 месяца назад

Nice start Mike! Interesting iron piece..just wondering how feasible it would be to 1) get a weed wacker for the rough areas and/or 2) ask for permission to use your propointer and hand shovel to scour that basement!🍀

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

I'm sure he will let me scan the dirt floor. Plus he did say he is going to bush-hog those brambles. Hacking through that stuff by hand is a lot of work

@MegaSilverStacker 4 месяца назад

Man what a beautiful site to detect! Best Regards my friend

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

Thank you. I was invited back too. The brambles will be cut by then.

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

It was fun even though not a lot was found. Perhaps on the next visit I might find some good stuff when those brambles are bush-hogged.

Do you remember the brand of shovel you are using in your video? I have the same one and have worn it down to half that size over the years and need a new one. I love that small shovel. Thanks, Doug in NC

@Metal-Detecting-NC 3 месяца назад

Yes, it is a Lesche T-handle. I bought it on Amazon. There are several handle lengths to choose from. The one I got is a little long since I use it as a cane. LoL 😆

Do you have a special method for archiving your finds?

@Metal-Detecting-NC 4 месяца назад

At most historic sites, I give the relics back to the homeowner. But I do bag and label finds from particular hunts. I am planning to make a "relic room" in my house to display some of my nicest finds.
