On this adventure Mike and I metal detect a corn field adjacent to a very historic road... Original music by Brad Martin www.GMMD.us / greenmountainmetaldete... / green.mountain.metal.d...
Like that old 4-H button and the little flower button you found. The Indian head pennies are nice too, old. I have a tiny collection of those, about 7 of them if I recall right. It's fun to find the interesting and old stuff. I had to get really up close and personal with this video so I could see! My eyes are healing from cataract surgery over the last 2 weeks so you all are fuzzy-wuzzy. Still need to get new glasses as well on accounta my astigmatism but that's okay. I've been wearing glasses since I was 5 anyway. I'm hoping to be able to really see again a couple more weeks. Then I won't be leaving nose prints on every darn thing. Looking forward to that. Thanks for sharing.
A lot of great finds, I really like that old wrench and that two cent penny, Brad, I think you and Mike make a great metal detecting duo, looking forward to more adventures. 😉👍
I am loving your channel and have been playing episodes constantly while I work at my desk. I've made a funny observation... You and your friends constantly refer to a find as "it's an old...". Cracks me up that you're differentiating between an old object and a new one found deep in the woods under a foot of soil. Keep me smiling. Thanks.
These videos are actually quite amazing. The cinematography is great, the cut scenes, the scenery you show. That is not only a talent but a lot of time and care taken to make these. There aren't many other detectives out there doing what you do. Hopefully you are able to make a living doing this work. That's what I imagine... you found a way to make a living by following your passions, and sharing history and adventures with the world. Good on ya buddy, keep it up. I am inspired to do something similar
I always enjoy seeing Mike in your videos. He adds a certain something... like a character straight out of the old west. Even though you didn't find much, you always seem to have more fun when you have either Eddie or Mike out with you.
Good to see Mike again. He adds great background depth to your videos! Keep him. So called 'Brimmer Massacre' has a very good story attached to it, Worth a read.
The multiple square nut wrench that would have come in a kit for a Fordson tractor. Might say Ford on the side. Pretty useless but all the old timers seemed to save them🙂
Very Nice Hunt Brad. Love the wrenches. I believe early 1900s. Congrats on the 2 Cent Coin. That one Coin I still haven't found yet. Love the Buttons and IHPs. Take Care
Hi Brad, I really like how your metal detecting videos are presented and how they develop. I liked the beautiful green coins they found. Beautiful pictures of the friend field. My cordial Brazilian greetings.
Enjoyed the video today, and it was good to see Mike again. Loved that little floral button. Thanks for your dedication to metal detecting and to your fans.
Brad! I think it’s time to get new gloves! The ones you wear are too shredded to protect your hands. Just a suggestion, not criticism. So glad to see you’re back and digging! And Hi Mike👋🏼
Hi Brad so good to see you and Mike back together again good to see you Mike I hope you have been doing good brother man. I always enjoy seeing you on the show. You should think about doing a channel of your own brother so we can keep up with you.
Any chance that padlock is actually a part to a chest? I don't know what the style is called but there is a piece that is on the front of the lid and has a hinged round plate that flips down as part of the locking mechanism.
Well, it is clearly not the 4 H emblem. It may be the 3 H Emblem, from 1906 to 1909. If one of the leaves is totally corroded away. But then again, that would be weird seen the state of the rest of the pin. So may there be an earlier 2 H symbol? (Head and Hands) If this is the case, and seeing the place you found it, it can clearly be that this pin is from a American Indian boarding school. I mean. Heads (make them "American") and Hands (Make them useful for work).
You're correct that the clover only contains 2 of the 4 'H's, however since I wasn't able to find any information on this particular design, I simply identified it as early 4-H for the video's sake. It does, after all, still contain the "State Achievement School", "Home" and "Lamp of Knowledge" , which are all imagery of 4-H. Any references to learn more about a 2-H would be greatly appreciated!
@@GMMD Well I did find a picture of the 3 leaved clover. It was like your pin, but with a slightly smaller lamp, and a 3th leaf and H on the left. (strangely I cant find it anymore. Even in my history.) But logic would suggest, that if there was a older 3 leaved version, the 2 leafed should be even older. But maybe this is some dark history, people want to forget. I will search some more.
Love your videos !! Spent many a summer vacationing in rural Vermont. I can't help but wonder if there is ground in that area that is undisturbed by farming. I wonder if your luck would be even better. I was surprised with the luck you did have on that ground where the earth has been turned over and over........ Keep digging !!
Wow Brad very nice finds No dwellings but they must of had temporarily settlements while on their travels . Did you ever find info on Indian massacre . Hope to hear of you find out . Ty again for your video. Congrats to you and Mike .
I am local. In the 1740s/1750s 3 boys of a family were out in a field. They noticed a native blanket sitting down by the creek and immediately retreated. By the time they got to their horse it was too late. One was shot, and two taken up north and scalped
