Metal Detecting Don't throw away your trash until you see this video, Trash is treasure, After this video you will save all your trash, Also some cool demo house finds
Great stuff! That Exposition souvenir is really unique. The framed photo is awesome, too. Wish I had the luck of being able to check out houses before they're razed. Another fine video. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your finds!
Cool scrap tips and cool demo finds. The ship about to sail under the Golden Gate Bridge is the cruiser USS Houston (CA-30). She was a somewhat famous ship because President Roosevelt preferred to sail aboard her whenever he traveled abroad. She was sunk by the Japanese in the Java Sea along with the Australian cruiser HMAS Canberra. The survivors of both ships were captured by the Japanese and were part of the POW group that built the railway in Thailand and Burma that was made famous in "Bridge on the River Kwai." The Houston was erroneously reported sunk so many times (before being actually sunk) that she earned the nickname "The Galloping Ghost of the Java Coast." I learned of the Houston when I read the book "Ship of Ghosts" by naval historian James B. Hornfischer.
Very cool finds man, love those Navy ships. I was stationed on an air craft carrier and have seen the families line up to see us off , what a site. Great save.
well done mate, definitely pays to keep your metal detecting scrap junk finds, see here if interested Metal Detecting Tip: Keep Your Junk Brass & Copper Finds! and $$$ Tip: Why you should keep your Metal Detecting Finds of High Grade Scrap Copper, Brass, etc
Very good,Just started metal detecting again after like 8 years, getting lots of copper, brass, tin, etc, going to round up some buckets! Very smart using the recycling money to by numismatic coins, I likely will buy silver or even small gold bullion with mine.
When I detect I keep pennies. Average 5-6 hours a week. Every year I average $200-250 in pennies alone. Apparently not many people like finding nickles either. I've been hunting a small park in the middle of the city and just today have pulled my 209th nickle from a 2.2 sq acre park of which I've detected less than 1/2 of it. If I keep the wino bottle caps I could fill up three 5 gallon buckets for sure.
Nice job on your video, like the picture & coins. Enjoyed. I cleaned my garage out & took a bunch of stuff to scrap...it is amazing what u can sell there. Thanks for sharing.
Nice vid. I keep my junk too for recycling. Partially for value and partially it’s just going back into the earth in a different spot that I took it out of if I throw it out. Nice coins!
nice one. scrap in the UK now is hard as they have changed the LAW on it and you need a licence now. as people was robbing off the church roofs and stuff not good.
darren kawasaki You dont need a licence to weigh scrap in at the scrapyard.Im a roofer and often weigh my lead and copper in.Anyone can take lead to the scrap yard the only difference there is they no longer pay cash.Its either cheque or paid into a bank account.Not sure with regards to buying scrap of other people though.
I need to be more diligent..you got enough for a new Pin-Pointer, but buying cool coin's, that's cool as well. I do have some copper saved up, mostly copper fittings, but I can do way better I'm sure..Thank's for posting this video..
Thanks for watching, just save copper, brass, lead only, the rest doesn't add to much, think even all your clad will buy the best coins you might never find GL HH
no aluminum bucket? I do the same thing but I save a large aluminum pot I throw all the pull tabs and other small aluminum in. I save the lead to one day start molding my own bullets.
Johnfly8 Yes I do..in fact my dad went to a reunion on his old ship and gave me a pin with the ship on it..my brother has a book on all naval ships..he's quite into it. :)
