On this adventure I metal detect a historic swimming hole and am blown away by the coins I find. Original music by Brad Martin www.GMMD.us / greenmountainmetaldete... / green.mountain.metal.d...
Yes and those kind of keys were fazed out in the 80's weren't they? I remember my 1980 Olds had one like that but I don't remember my 89 Buick having one.
@@mc4906 the problem isn’t that they drink. It’s that they litter I’m a drinker but I always take my trash home and I pick up other peoples trash as well.
@@slickmuck4312 very true, if properly disposed of it wouldn't ruin places. But some folks think they need to drink literally everywhere. And people that are inebriated don't care about littering because they're impaired. Take a walk down any city or rural street and count the discarded alcohol containers and beer bottle caps.
1st time viewer, 1st time commenter... I have yet to see any other videos you've done, but this hit the marks, all of them. Right away you respected my time, no mindless ramblings, no overburdened or dwelling in dialogs or videography. You kept it moving and informative without it sounding like a PSA and you have great energy and in a nutshell you rock it!!
It is my first time watching him as well, and I loved the video for all the same reasons, he happens to also be very charming. Altogether well worth watching. 😉😊
I’ve been watching for many years, like 5+ I’d say and it’s been top notch all the way. Pure joy and excitement. I’ve learned quite a bit through the years as well.
I don’t think it could get any better, hot day,cool water, no trash or bugs, and an overwhelming excitement of finding unexpected treasure. Thanks for sharing.
You thought outside the box and made it into a very interesting detecting adventure. A trifecta of silver dimes, Barber, Merc and Rosie makes it a highly successful hunt. Well done Brad.
@@jamiewatkins4178 Most are worth $1.27 at today's silver prices. As collectibles, after being in the water for years, their value is $1.50-$3.00. The Barber maybe $8-$10.
A Barber? What a find! Can you imagine someone from that era peeling out of their period garb and cooling off just as those would do a hundred years later? Simply fascinating to ponder. Oldest coin I’ve found thus far is a ‘67 Washington quarter. Love the pure pleasure rendered from your finds.
I hunt swimming holes as well. Here's a clue, look for areas close to but away from the hole that people changed clothes or went to the bathroom. A lot of stuff gets dropped there.
Great choice of locations for hunting lost Vermont Treasure Brad, thanks for taking us along. You choose a spectacular Vermont "Swimmin' Hole," reminiscent of some that I frequented while living in NW Vermont .. Amazing that you found no trash what so ever .. That in itself, is testament to Vermont's appreciation of natural attractions and those "secret" Swimmin' Holes ..
And the lack of flatlanders like the one moron who blatantly threw his Mcdonalds trash out of the car window in front of my house in Burlington yesterday!!
That ole swimming hole is a real treasure. The water is so clear and it looks like the bottom is sandy. Gorgeous and no trash. Those special places are hard to find. Betty from Canada 😊
I don't know how you can be so excited about your amazing finds and still be able to talk. I would have been hooping and hollering, than speechless. So happy for you!
I LOVE a Friday morning when I can catch your newest video to enjoy with my morning coffee!! It is right with the world when I can start a day like that. Love your videos & music & perspective. So decent!
I wish had messaged you earlier about swimming holes in your area! My best hunt ever produced 12 silver coins(2 silver halves), 2 indians, 30 wheaties, and multiple rings(2 precious) ...all from an old(obviously virgin)swimming hole. I still return to the spot and find stuff that I'd missed.
This was fun. I especially enjoyed the beauty of the area. Your enthusiasm is special for us fans. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing. It's nice to get away from this crazy world.
You are the only metal detecting person I watch. Am always thrilled right along next to you of the treasures you find. you are so gracious and thankful for all the things you find. Wishing you a wonderful day!
I know! That’s one of the things I love about you and your finds! Nothing is too humble a find not to be appreciated and thankful for. Ok, the scythe rings and ox knobs are pretty common, but you have humor and hope that make this, by far, my first and favorite metal detecting video series.
this is the first of your video's I have seen. thanks so much for taking me to the swimming hole with you. at my age, 72, this is pretty much the only way I can go to places like this. I remember going places like that in Michigan u.p. with my dad in the 50's and 60's. thanks again.
Can't believe you found that many coins in such a small stream. Nice silver & congrats on the Barber UNREAL. All of your locations are beautiful in your state. Props to the visitors that never left their trash, very uncommon.
What a way to spend a hot afternoon - a cool, refreshing stream and a pool, a metal detector, coin finds - rather idyllic, especially that beautiful pool. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
I don’t know anything about metal detectors except what I’ve heard you talk about - and was shocked you can completely submerge it under water! As always, I truly enjoy your videos. Beautiful, gorgeous place!
@@GMMD My 2 metal detectors can go in the water alittle but not like the one you used in the video. Still I get some fun finds.😁 My 1st find like 30 yrs ago was a burried fence ! Who burrys a fence?😂😁😀 My best find I think was finding a ladie's grandmother's ring ! I searched a long time in the park for it while the grand-daughter was there & came back really early the next day. When that nice lady got her grandmother's ring back (her grand mom had just died) that was THE best !!! day ever !!! She wanted to pay me but seeing her tears of joy made the hrs of searching all worth it & I'd never charge money to find stuff like that. Like you, I do it for the fun of 'trying' (luck) at finding 'something'. Many times ya find nothing or find 'junk', but ya never know what you might find & that's the fun of it. Good luck on your 'hunting' & stay safe.
I envy you Brad for the reason where you hunt. I live in South Texas and around here big private ranches and cactus, mesquite and snakes. As we say down here, if it doesn't prick you it will bite you or stick you!! I'm sitting here watching you pull out barber and Merc dimes and my wife is telling me to close my mouth!!! Gotta luv it. Good video and good luck friend and take care out there Brad
Great digging, cool finds. I recognized the GM rounded key right away - door/trunk key. The smaller key looks like a suitcase key. Your real zinger find is the 1892 dime.
Congrats on the Trifecta, Brad. Those little creeks and streams can be quite surprising. When you find a pile of coins in one spot, that's a sink. You should check them over the years because they are the spots where coins will continually show up. Great video and Happy Hunting.
Hi, Brad. Just what I needed to see at the end of my Friday before I hit the sack. What a great place to hunt for treasure. And if looked like you did very well. Lots of modern coins but 3 silver dimes, one from 1890s, is a nice haul. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
You were a seated coin away from a grand slam!! That place somewhere along that creek has to be some gold/silver jewelry and more silver coins. Without all the trash all you have to do is find the spot below the swimming hole where that water pooled up in floods. Maybe even up along the banks at a bend where the water washed when flooding? Great spot for sure. I could spend days hunting up there following that creek! Great video!
Beautiful place, I bet the pool felt great! Wow! That's a huge pile of coins but the 3 were awesome. You could see on your face how much you enjoyed it, cool water and metal detecting...great combo! See you next Friday. Thank you again Brad .. such a pleasure... You're the best!
Brad, this is a gorgeous place. In this heat I wouldn’t be in a hurry to leave it! The stream must do a good job of cleaning the light, modern junk out when there is a storm and a gush scouring.
You said “majestic”, if there was a stronger word it needs to be used. Beautiful area and majestic cliffs and stream. It just oozes serenity. Congratulations on your finds. Thanks for taking us along.
You're absolutely right the best thing about our hobby is you never know what you're going to find congratulation on finding three Silvers in that stream amazing
I just love your personality! It shows on camera that you are passionate about discovery and remembering things of the past. First time watcher and new subscriber! Thanks for sharing with us. Travis
What an absolutely stunning pool. I loved today’s video as it is just such beautiful scenery. Those 3 silver coins are lovely & wow for the 1800’s one. How wonderful to find no rubbish, what a rarity that is these days!
Brad I absolutely love your videos I have been watching for a while now and never miss one.. thank u for being part of my life and making me smile with each video.. keep doin what u do 💜
I think I’ve been to that swimming hole back when a friend once lived in Vermont.If i recall it was up by Smugglers Notch.It was truly a unique experience!! Nice finds!!
I could get lost in that swimming hole. Its beautiful. Knowing you have not found any trash and very little inside the swimming hole, makes me wonder if someone has not detected that area already.
Yahoo Brad! I had a blast on this day too! So happy for your happy day, joyful experience and finds that humble we mere mortals. I’m so behind on your adventures, I will be dropping you a note here and there. Take care, Your biggest Kentucky fan💞Tere
Wow such a stunning place, not surprising that over the years people have gone there to swim and obviously just enjoy the stunning scenery. Abit surprised that we didn't see you metal detecting around the poolside where folk would have probably sat when dressing and undressing. Hayho maybe next time!. As always buddy 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
I remember when you first hunted that spot years ago but I'd forgotten how beautiful it was. I'm fairly close to a river but nothing as beautiful as that.
I like it when you get out of the normal like this and the old house for the museum. The old mountain places are really cool don't get me wrong! But stir it up and do some different like this is a breath of fresh air now and again for the channel. Up there in Vermont you should get permission for some old churches they are Hot Spots! people carried money for the plate and for cake walks and after church events. Wasnt much to do back then so everyone showed up! I have loaded up at 100-150yo church lawns!
