Today we jetboat up the river and prospect for some new hotspots to search with my metal detector for coins and relics. It was a fantastic adventure and I found some really great artifacts including a big silver Seated Liberty half-dollar coin and some cool bottles. Climb aboard and let's go for an adventure!
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.

Another fun river adventure for me, I hope you guys have a good time too. Please don't forget to give it a like if you enjoyed the video and subscribe if you want MOAR!

@michelleg8727 Год назад

Really enjoyed it. Hahaha always an adventure 👊 that's why we love ya

@theodorerooseveltcharlesto1555 Год назад

I thought it smelled like Canadian Bacon and I could not figure out why.

@aserta Год назад

You can use sodium silicate to recreate chipped bottle edges. I haven't tried it, but dad did and he says it's pretty good. So those chipped bottles you have, you could fix up by dripping some of that on it.

@eugeneprohl1517 Год назад

The brass things you said "looked like it had a mirror in them" are the keys to a brass instrument such as a saxophone. They hold the pads that press down and seal the holes as you play notes. I'm an old saxophone player myself and instantly recognized them. Congrats on the seated half. Awesome!

@geraldolson3598 Год назад

Those are part of an old Conn sax.

@magnum7581 Год назад

As a saxophonist of many years myself, I came here to say the same thing!

@raynin Год назад

The seated liberty was definitely a heart stopper.

@geraldolson3598 Год назад

Definitely saxophone keys, I own a band instrument repair shop and have seen many of those in my 35+ years. The rest of the instrument may very well be in the area. The key that you found are mounted on the instrument between posts with a long steel screw. It is likely the screws have rusted away, and the keys fell off. The other round disc that has a bump in the middle that you had laying by the keys in the round up is a pary of a pad system that was used by the Conn instrument manufacturer. The pads would snap into the pad cup using that part.

@rogerparker329 Год назад

Chigg, the odd round brass things you have, that you thought may have contained mirrors, look like the keys to Saxophone or similar instrument.

@happymack6605 Год назад

💯 Definitely keys to a saxophone 🎷👍🏽

@ohmike813 Год назад

Bingo!

@Objective-Observer Год назад

Interesting. I thought they were the steam release valves off machines.

@barbeenzinc4095 Год назад

@@Objective-Observer I agree with you. And by the look of it, they are too thick for saxophone. Maybe from a steam organ though which would make it a steam release valve 😊

@solotraveler6025 Год назад

Those round things you thought might hold mirrors are actually valves off a brass instrument like French horn or a saxophone. Civil war band? 😀

Man I love that Jet boat, it's just awesome!!!

SEATED HALF WOO-HOO !!!! Congratulations Chigg. Man you have been on fire 🔥 these last few hunts. Love the SAFETY SEAL JAR. Thanks Chigg for another great AQUACHIGGER ADVENTURE. The only thing that would have made the hunt better is if I was with you. Keep up the great work 👍 👏

@ImTimT. Год назад

Hey Beau, I had my first asthma attack the other day thanks to this air. I'm about an hour and a half away from you. Carrying an inhaler with me when I'm hunting for now.

@PALM311 Год назад

Nice coin Chigg. I get it about wanting to protect your spot. I do a lot of river detecting and I was in a spot one day where I found a couple of mercury dimes as well as a seated dime in one area, and a few other relics, and I had a couple in a canoe come floating up to me and asked how I was doing. Well, as they were coming closer to me, I hurried up onto the bank, and I said whoa, there’s another one! And they looked at me kind of funny, and I said I don’t think it’s worth detecting here I said, I’ve never seen an area so infested with snakes and snapping turtles in my life! Lol they couldn’t paddle out of there fast enough. You mention snakes in the river and people just get all creeped out and they can’t take it most of the time lol

@jimjustice581 Год назад

Another great adventure. Thanks for taking us along.

@cellerfeller1474 Год назад

Thanks for the video Chigg - the woods were closed to all travel here in Nova Scotia because of the forest fires. Just opened up this week. 151 homes were destroyed at one site near Halifax. Over 50 lost in the Western end of the province with the biggest forest fire in our recorded history. Flames were shooting 300 feet in the air - about 60,000 acres burned - still burning but under control. Even had fire fighters from Montana come up to help.

@katelittlewolfwelshrosesan3630 Год назад

Woot! 🎉on the Seated Liberty!bet you are right, more where she came from! ...lol Chig i think you were being stalked ." There he is its that famous Aquachigger fella! Hes on to something ! " they say

@rogersmith5738 Год назад

Welcome to my world Chigg! As a volunteer firefighter, we have to put up with this stuff most summers, you need to wear a P2 mask which should help.

@RK57AZ Год назад

Hey Mr. The cast iron gig that you found was actually a Civil War Navy Seal trident probably dropped during a covert special ops raid to capture a high ranking confederate officer or war plans! As always, stay safe and healthy!

Another great adventure, thanks for taking us along! Such a beautiful river! I'd ask where, but I get not disclosing that info. Keep enjoying that gorgeous nature and keep bringing us along! Cheers!

@treepotato9273 Год назад

Those bricks are apparently from a brickworks that operated from 1856 to 1987, they're firebricks that lined the furnaces. Not sure how they show up in strange places but I guess there's a story behind them.

@aquachigger Год назад

Thanks for the info.

@Netbug Год назад

The largest fire was only about 7 miles from my house. Before the winds shifted and sent the smoke down your way, it was so thick that I was getting headaches. I know what you're experiencing.

@MrDbone75 Год назад

A very good Saturday morning to you all in the USA from Wellington Somerset in the UK 🇬🇧

@tomlauck5530 Год назад

Your two finds that you commented that maybe a mirror was in it. I believe they are Saxophone parts that close over openings and the had pads in them to stop air leaks.

@TheHolyFurryEmpire Год назад

I live in upstate New York but the smoke is getting more clear but it's starting to rain a lot

@meanderingwithmuddypaw Год назад

Ah, yes ... smokey haze ... We are well acquainted with that here in Northern California! So sad about the fires, though! Looks like another great Chigg-venture on the river ... You scored some good finds ... and just fun to be out. Looking forward to MOAR! Thanks, Chigg! - Muddypaw 🐾

@Netbug Год назад

You should see the deadfall in Nova Scotia after Hurricane Juan... it's anywhere from 25 to 50% of the forest here. Cleaning it up was discussed and dismissed when it happened 20 years ago. This is what we get for leaving millions of dead trees laying all around our urban centers. The place was and still is a tinderbox.

@meanderingwithmuddypaw Год назад

@@Netbug I believe it. California is a tinderbox because of all the policies they have in place that do not allow for clearing undergrowth/deadfall. Add to that the 100+ yr old electrical infrastructure and end up with things like the deadliest wildfire in the state (country) in 2018 - the Camp Fire. I work in mental health with survivors of the Camp Fire and it is still devastating lives 5 yrs later. I hope they get those fires under control really soon up there in Canada!! 🐾

Love! Your jet boat videos. You all in the East are not used to the enormity of really bad dangerous wildfire smoke as we in the west and western Canada are. Its rough yes. But nothing compared to what those who are loosing land sustainable wilderness and homes are experiencing

Great Silver. Still can't get over Doug having an Open Bottom!😂

Yup I'm in northern Michigan and it's a little smokey up here as well great adventure thanks for letting me tag along

@ronwaldron9626 Год назад

I know you know how hard it is to fint a seated half, good find. I could be be detecting in a really remote spot , and like magic I hear a voice out of nowhere say are you finding anything!!! I can only imagine what its going to be like 5 or 10 years from now. I would love to see more river videos. Before I realized it was a jet boat I was thinking you were getting way to close to shore and tree limbs!!!

@karenlittleton6073 Год назад

Awesome seated coin..and i like the 4 prong fishing piece from hundred years ago..eels snakes big fish.River is beautiful and aqua chigger boat.

@tarmach523 Год назад

Love the half dollar! I’m obsessed with the Walking Liberty coins, I even got her tattooed on my leg. I’m a Canadian but go figure lol, Liberty and her flowing gowns and holding the torch is beautiful! Yes we could see and smell the smoke for the last few days and lots of people coughing. My eyes were actually stinging at times, and I’m in Ontario! Loving your channel and have been binging the vids although I don’t think I’ll ever get through them all anytime soon as you’ve got so many! Thank you for sharing all your adventures and finds🤩🇨🇦

We have poor air quality in south western Ontario. There is a smokey haze hanging over with a strong throat catching smell. 🔥 🔥

@48thstateprospecting Год назад

Nice finds especially the seated half were you able to clean it and see if it had a mint mark under the eagle on the reverse CC or S ? Thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

@Sunny_Beaches Год назад

Beaux, the thing w spikes is one side of a Presto or Oster hotdog cooker that ran elect current through the weiner to heat it. Cooked like 8 hotdogs in 30sec.

The smoke from the Canadian fires was so back for 2 days in Northern New Jersey you could not see the sun. The sky was a crazy yellow and it smelled like someone was burning paper. We had our windows closed for both days and A/C on even thought we did not really need it.

@BIGALL7777 Год назад

Congratulations on the half dollar Chiggs ! Really enjoyed the river adventure and the interesting assortment of finds. Could you determine the age of the iron fishing spear ? Love the old bricks you found too. Take care and best regards always !

@restoreamerica1558 Год назад

My favorite Videos are his river hunts & his desert hikes and trips for sure. He has done such a thorough job hunting these areas he is probably running into slimmer picking, but it seems the thing he is most natural doing. Who doesn’t love cruising up and down a river full of history. Also like when he mixes it with some good historical facts about the various locations. Wonder if he ever has brought the chig rig to some Louisiana rivers near New Orleans? I would think there would be some incredible history between the civil and 1812 war.

Have you ever done a video telling your story, how you started,a bit of your past? It would be great to find out a little bit more, maybe what you have planned for the future? Take care,am super happy to have so many videos to check out 👍🇬🇧

I think you literally stumbled upon someone's little forge/blacksmithing setup, that big bent L of iron looked like a stake anvil of some sort, the refractory brick would be good for a fire resistant forge
