On this adventure I find the oldest US coin and something that has no business being here. Original music by Brad Martin www.GMMD.us / greenmountainmetaldete... / green.mountain.metal.d...

Hooray! Thank you for taking us along on your adventure! I love watching you finding objects and giving us a history lesson on what they are, how they were used, why they might have been in this area, etc. THANKS BRAD!
Digging the iron signals has produced MANY outstanding relics for me over the years. I never shy away and it's payed off! Good job and congrats on the finds Brad!
Nice finds Brad. The looped end iron piece looks like it could be the pintle side of a forged hinge. It would be pounded into a predrilled hole in the frame and hold the hinge from a door. Thank you for sharing with us. Happy hunting.
Yep that's what I think it is also. Some can get pounded into stonework between the stones in a small pillar and stone wall like for a gate hinge in to an early cemetery. Either way it's too an early strap hinge
When there are few undiscovered mysteries left there's always the rediscovered, things most people in this time don't know or think about. I love history, especially of the people who lived in times past. Thank you Brad for bring us along on your adventures of rediscovery. I truly enjoy seeing the past dug up/found.
I've just had a vision of a long line of folks from various times in history following you around trying to get your attention. "Hey man n that's mine " lol
The iron that looks like a tent stake, I think is a tent stake…how exciting to find the coin, makes you want to go back in time and say “hey there, you dropped this”!
I loved your reaction to the Nova Constellatio coin- only your 3rd or 4th- I wonder how many people west of us have ever even heard of one, never mind found a few! It would indeed be a lifetime find for thousands of non-New Englander's. Congrats for an amazing find, in pretty darn good shape I might add! Oh, and that tiny thimble- fantastic!
Brad - It is not uncommon for different time periods to be intermixed with each other. We have found Native American artifacts, colonial artifacts & Civil War artifacts all in the same area here in the Mid-Ohio Valley. So, it is not uncommon for that to happen. Hope you find out what it is and congratulations on the coin! Best wishes from 35th State Relic Hunters. Keep up the great videos as they are among the best on RU-vid! Thanks again for sharing the adventure & the history!
Awesome videos been watching a while now nothing else to say but absolute perfection with how you do your short educational films my partner and I detect in Tasmania always welcome to stay with us if you ever come down
Great day in the Green Mtn's Brad .. You always seem to uncover some very cool artifacts, and I'm certain the "cuttings on your editing floor" highlight neat stuff as well .. As for the Kettle Point Arrowhead .. Possibly, could it be a previously "discovered" artifact uncovered by an earlier resident ? .. Who's to say .. Thanks for another great morning in the Green Mtn's.
I have been a long time subscriber, but today when this video popped up I wasn’t a subscriber anymore! Well I hit sub again, thanks for the adventure Brad!
It’s definitely a kettle point Brad the shape and size are perfect, It makes perfect sense for it to be deeper for the age , Native American trade routes were vast and wide , some worked along side the colonialists as guides
Man y'all don't realize how blessed you are up there with that "easy diggin" dirt. Sometimes down here in south Alabama, you need a pickaxe to break this sun baked earth.
The Nova coin and tiny unsquashed thimble were my favorites. The comments on all of your videos are almost as good as the videos themselves because they show how many people continue to be interested in the past and how things were made. Thanks for another wholesome start to my Friday morning here in NE Texas.
On the possible kettle point, I wondered if it had stuck in an animal but didn't kill it. The animal could have died and the point would have been left at that spot. Maybe a long shot but is a possibility.
Brad I've been watching you metal detect every since you started and it never ceases to amaze me because you put a story with everything you find that's cool 😎😄
Your right again Brad, not only did women do there hand sewing outside but they also made quilts in groups! Women were smaller back then! I love those thimbles!!
Your videos are the best. I agree with the many others who have praised your work. I’m a newcomer who has binged your old videos so I especially appreciate that you show very little of that infernal beeping! Keep up the good work!
Love ya bro You give me an escape from the times we are living in now... By bringing the history of America's past. It looks to me that humans keep repeating the same stupid mistakes. We have GOD given rights. Life, Liberty ,and the pursuit of Happiness. Thanks again
Great finds! I have family history from Vermont, Addison County-Monkton. In 1778 their farm was raided by Tories & Native Americans. So I vote it’s a kettle point. 😊
I know it is tough to dig all the iron but after recently pulling a beautiful carriage step out of the mud it is just hard not to dig a few? Thanks for sharing! Beautiful finds and a beautiful location.
Congrats on all your finds Brad. Love the Buttons and Buckle pieces. Don't believe I've ever seen a Thimble that small. Very Nice. Love the Nova Copper 1785. Take Care
Great Show Brad as always I enjoyed the video very much !! It seems like everything you come across I have something similar I've found in fields near my home in N.France ! You help me greatly with your speculations ! Thank Again Your pal Kevin in France and Florida
Congratulations on rescuing that 1785 copper, Brad! That just might be a kettle point. It may have been used by a hunter a long time ago. Well done as always!
I am not familiar with metal points from the historical period, but I do find arrowheads in singular contexts, without any other signs of occupation. I think they might have been fired and lost, like stuck in a deer that ran away and they didn't get to recover the point.
Man to find that still perfectly formed thimble was great!! I not enjoy the old shoe and knee buckle finds, I dream of finding them. A really old Largie is always a huge plus!! Great hunt Brad 😃
Great video Brad, I really enjoy watching your videos, the quality is far above everyone else. You have a definite artistic talent that comes out in your videos.
Agree on the door pintle the brass “arrowhead” could be entirely plausible do not assume history began with the 17th farm. I can say this having made the same mistake. 16th century deer hunter passing through lost an arrow?
Cool finds Brad! My opinion the Nova constellation, forgive my spelling. Is your best find of the day! All in all good day of finding lost treasure! Keep on digging...
Hello Brad I believe the long straight piece of metal is a to swing a gate from. Also I'm amazed at the beautiful turf you are digging through.i would like my lawn to look as good. Greetings from Australia
Love your channel. Sorry I don't comment more often, but I watch RU-vid on the fire stick. Glad to see you finally got new gloves. 😂 Greetings from Colorado.
I think the triangle object IS Native American. With it being so deep, it could have been there when the house was built. I hope you are able to found out. That is an Awesome find.
