    Man great story. It shows that research pays off. I would suggest you to consider carrying a nylon brush to clear your finds from dirt rather than rubbing them on your pants or with your fingers. Also, a small atomizer with water would also be helpful. The tombac button shank broke for that reason. A little bit of water and softly brushing off the dirt would've helped.

    Keeping history in the videos and site specific brings the items found so much more exciting. Check all sounds, even the lower numbers. Is that hogweed that grows up there? You might want to register your finds with your historical society. Watched Quarter Hoarders and saw American Digger editor. He mentioned submitting items and stories for the What Is It page. Your videos on this historic site just might make it to the top of the list! Emphasis on coins is great, but artifacts add more meat to bone. Be safe out there.😊

    • @detectingpa8968
      @detectingpa8968  Месяц назад

      Thank you, we were not familiar with the American Digger page. Maybe we will look into it. I forget the name of the weed but it’s not native and it’s very invasive and we agree. The relics are often times more exciting to find. Thanks as always for the comment and the support!

    • @detectingpa8968
      @detectingpa8968  29 дней назад +1

      I don’t know much about native artifacts but the tinkler cones I have seen look like the sharp tip is cut off so they can tie it to their dress. The ones we found were very sharp and rigid. With no way to fasten them other than to a shaft.

    @granddad-mv5ef Месяц назад

    That is a fascinating site, far more "unusual" finds than at a homestead. The item that was sticking up from the ground was spindle-like, but I have no good idea of its purpose. However, I do think some of the items are industrial revolution-era. Is the site actually next to the river?

    • @detectingpa8968
      @detectingpa8968  Месяц назад

      Yes, it’s along the river(you can see the river behind me in some of the clips). There was an early settlement there that was gone in the 1870s as evidence nothing being there on the 1870s map but there was a salt works, post office, and coal works there on the 1860s map. From our research the town was established sometime around 1840s. The Indian artifacts would suggest there was an Indian village or trading post there prior to the establishment of the small town.

    • @detectingpa8968
      @detectingpa8968  Месяц назад

      And the site of the story was just a few miles below this spot so it’s very possible that the attack could have been launched from this spot when it was an Indian village.
