Back on the river metal detecting and searching for relics, coins, gold, and any other thing we may find. I travel up and down the river in my motorized kayak and had to end the day when it started to storm.
About Aquachigger:
I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure,
metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my RU-vid "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
BTW, you can also catch me here, / chiggsarmy ,but I may get a little edgier there. FB isn't a place for kids anyway...lol.

Chigg, your Mokai is getting a rather interesting patina. Me and the wobbly kitten appreciate your humility. Take care everyone.

I know...I know...its none of my business and I probably won't ring out. Has anyone heard about Lindsey (Mrs.Chigg) lately ??? He hasn't mentioned her name or featured her in a video in a very long time. Hope all is well between them. Both seem so nice. Just concerned.

15:09 and 21:32 Mr Chic, I think that thin metal disc is from the top of a cork, the type that's attached to Champagne bottles, wine bottles etc; if those are three holes, that would be were the wire goes that holds it and the cork to the bottle.

@sandorfarkas2364 3 года назад

Chigg, that brass item you picked up at 9:28 is a shirt/collar stud, basically just a button for either the front of your shirt or holding a detached collar onto a collarless shirt.

@sandorfarkas2364 3 года назад

Could be 1827-1930ish.

One thing I learned this summer is raccoons eat clams like you said. I saw a raccoon doing something odd on the bank when I was fishing, and I investigated and it ran away and left behind a pile of empty clam shells it was eating.

@feloniousmonk8740 3 года назад

I had always been told rabid animals tend to stay away from water. Rabies swells the throat and causes them to choke if they try to drink. So they get scared to be around water.

@robertlarson3898 3 года назад

Wondering about metal detecting more coins, and also Indian artifacts. The river iron chunks and other junk getting boring. Not in a civil war area and more interested in coins especially silver and gold examples, also arrowheads and other points. Thanks

@finderskeepers6684 3 года назад

If the fishing weights were flattened bullets, wouldn't they weigh the same? I know that one looked like maybe it was chipped off but could be a way to identify if it was a bullet!

@abrakaprogroup9077 3 года назад

What caliber is the big fat rounded top bullet? It seems larger that the rest must have been an interesting rifle or pistol that fired it. Do you have any of the types of rifles that fired these bullets? It would be interesting to see those next to the bullets you have found.

@davidball3081 3 года назад

Will the fishing sinkers made from civil war bullets weigh on average about the same as the bullets? 🤓

@scoutingforhistory4584 3 года назад

@@7.62shawn5 lol, it's generic advice for any nocturnal animals. If you see them out during the day it's unusual behavior. Doesn't mean they're rabid, just unusual.

@ralphwatten2426 3 года назад

Chigg, do you have any ideas on why there is so many dropped musket bullets and unfired ammo in the water. Soldiers wading across, forced into the water. Certainly they weren't throwing their cartridge boxes into the river. Any speculations?

@whotknots 3 года назад

Chig I live in Australia and have no idea regarding how such things are dealt with in the US so what are folks supposed to do if they suspect an animal is rabid? Surely some sort of authority would need to be notified otherwise I shudder to contemplate the threat rabid critters could pose to little kids and family pets!

@OriginalMudSlinger 3 года назад

there may be a way to tell lead sinker from shot is to weigh it. but maybe they hacked some lead off/// well i would of thought you would see that. it is not got to look petty has my argument is i would hammer out the shot as is into a fishing weight wack a hole through simple easy
