Wow, does this bring back great memories from when I was relic hunting in northern Virginia back in the 70's into the 90's. Our machines were nowhere as nice these modern ones but the amount of relics back then was amazing. Love seeing you out there, Brandon. More of these, please! Take care, be safe and God bless!
I love history and this video is so very cool!!! Congratulations on your finds!! Love to dig for Civil War relics, though I don't personally own a guieger counter. Hope I find more videos.
What an awesome adventure Brandon. It looks like you guys had a really great time and found some of America's history to boot. Great content in this one and as always thanks for taking us along. P.S. I think the beer bottle was the coolest find in this one.👍
Great video!! I found a CW grommet that looked identical to the one u found & it still had the leather in it. It was in an area where troops camped overnight & I’m pretty sure it’s a tent grommet. Very cool finds!!!
Brilliant finds guys, the bullets I think are known as "3 ringers" from what I have seen on other ACW sites. Great finding the buttons in one hole and the stone bottle is a real treasure. I am always amazed that even with all the ploughing that must have gone on, how deep these artefacts are located. Keep up the great work, look forward to more finds!
I was lucky enough to stumble on an Eagle infantry cuff button spill that had 8 when I found them. I ended up finding a 9th one later. Great video with a group of Diggin addicts!!!!!
What great finds, I grew up in Gloucester Pt, VA. Lived on a dirt road and found several Colonial and Civil War bullets. Also found one arrow head point and clay pipe pieces
Love your channel, did you find any civil war era railroad spikes? I’m a spike king love them railroad spikes 😂 abandoned railroads are my favorite place to metal detect❤ happy newyear
Uniform cuff buttons buried that deep all together would signify that a body was buried there after the action was over, and cuff buttons is all that are left.
Good finds! A word about those "cuff buttons"... I know we tend to call them that but they are more likely vest buttons. Uniforms were expected to last 90 to 120 days in the field and often burned when discarded.
I’m a native Georgian and grew up near Andersonville and have a bullet from there. I now live near Lookout mountain and have a friend with a lot of land on Signal Mountain. We have found all sorts of objects including a swath of clothing mixed in with the remains of a civil war wagon.
If it has Greece grooves and a hollow base it's a Minnie ball. If smooth side with a hollow base it's a Pritchet ball. If looks like a Minnie with a post and a washer it's a Williams cleaner bullet
Many years ago (early 70's) I used to live in Maryland. I got to visit lots of Civil War sites, but didn't even know metal detectors even existed until I got back to Texas. I ran across someone who worked for Garrett in their Dallas store who got me interested in them. I've owned three in my lifetime, but never had a chance to go back east where most of the battles were fought. I did however find out about a Civil War encampment on the bank of the Trinity River, just east of Dallas. A friend and I searched both banks several times, but never located any sign of the encampment.
Wow….very interesting, I have always wanted to go back East and do that, my buddy from childhood now leaves in VA so I may get my chance…..I’m sure those detectors are expensive.
that was great! you never know what you will dig up! it was great that the farmer let you to go digging. do you have to pay for the right to do that? or do most farmers do not care as long as you fill in the holes. another fine video thanks for sharing your adventure. the beer bottle was great, it is sad to think how many were lost to time! like today there will be nothing to be found unlike the past items burried.
My dad has been metal detecting since 1982. So I’m 2nd generation. However if you want to learn more about the hobby RUclips has a wealth of knowledge about Detecting. I’d start there 😎
Cool finds civel war medal detecing it would be a new game fot me it not like finding Northern copper native American Indian artifacts artifacts from copper joe medal detecting 😮
While you may be excited about your found objects, please remember that people fought and died here. Buttons just don’t fall off by themselves - Combat rips the from the fabric. You might put your finds in context of the battle.
At some point it stops being relic hunting and starts to become archaeology - I don’t know what that point is, but I feel like this is super close to that line. Congratulations, gentlemen. I think with just a little more regimented excavation and documentation you’d be doing “real” archaeology. That’s not intended to throw shade at you in any way, it is meant as a compliment.
This video was taken at a farm that is leased out for a organized hunt where hundreds of people pay to attend each year. I would start by joking a bunch of detecting groups on Facebook and attending paid permissions on the beginning. It’s not cheap but it will teach you the ropes and is nice to meet and talk with experienced detectroists.
New subscriber here. My newly created channel is the DownEast Digger. I like your camera work on this. Ive got a long way to go. Hope you hit some more good stuff !
yup building a pi clone detector real not much to these with a screen so will have to get diffrent conectors see what coils work the best 12 inch coils and more arm get a bit tired with 13 inch on think the bigest 33 inch some thing like that would be over the top
I highly doubt you have opportunities to dig in dug in civil war winter camps "all the time". Otherwise you wouldn't be calling the finds we made "junk". A true relic hunter understands the historic importance to every artifact recovered. Maybe one day you'll find the appreciation for the hobby and if not, go find a new one.

Awesome finds Brandon! Welcome to Virginia! I live in Martinsville! Thanks for sharing!
Hi "NOTHING IS UP" Excellent video😂
The beer bottle was cool. Would have like to got a better look at it.
Still interesting video, thanks for taking us along..
There was more to the clip however the wind noise was so bad I ended up cutting it out of the video during the edit. Sorry!
What a great opportunity Brandon!

Ive detected 37 years and just being at a DIV is awesome
fascinating , but it must be kinda eerie being where it happened . cheers
Sure enjoy watching, thanks!👍🇺🇸
I thought you were onto a whole buried jacket until you said it was 6 cuff buttons , bit strange 🤔thanks for taking us along Brandon👍🍻
What’s even more weird is some were infantry some were artillery!
Pulse induction for the win!

Can't see any detail at the 4:28 find but the shape reminded me instantly of a clasp on suspenders! 🤔
I say yes to all your ideas for the Alabama Pyramids/Blacksmith shop site!!

Brother the fast lane comment... it's unbelievable how many people have no idea how to properly use the lanes.
Oh, they know. They just don't care.
And more often than not it's some doofus in a prius.
Braden, that was so cool you all finding Cival War relics. That’s got to be so exciting. Enjoyed the video very much. ♥️😊👍👍👏
People driving slow in the left lane drives me ABSOLUTELY BONKERS!!
Cant help but think what damage these bullets/shrapnel would do when hitting flesh? Great digging you guys! Campillos Malaga SpaIn.,
5:30 I found the same bullet but a little more rounded on a tip in poland and i'm really curious what type of gun shoot this?
Wow….very interesting, I have always wanted to go back East and do that, my buddy from childhood now leaves in VA so I may get my chance…..I’m sure those detectors are expensive.
👍🙏>>>💚~~~ Thank You
that was great! you never know what you will dig up! it was great that the farmer let you to go digging.

Everyone pays.
Welcome to my home state ❤ can I ask what county were you in?
What a excellent video.
Culpepper!
How did you guys get started in this I’d love to do stuff like this but have no idea how to

Are any of your relics of value? Just asking?
I still use my Tesoro.... it's a fine machine.
My home State…Virginia🌟
What was originally in the Pittsburgh bottle?
Whiskey .
Brandon you have grate videos. There is only one thing wrong with them. Thy are to Dang short . LOL
Hiw do I find places i can search on? Private or not?

Where at in va.
i have located the buried Confederate Gold Treasure in Danville Va. it is near 360 gas station i need a back hoe to retrieve it .
It’s not the “fast lane” it’s the “passing lane” and if people aren’t actively passing they shouldn’t be in it. I feel your frustration.
Horse shoe, mule shoes are more u shaped. Ox shoes are two pieces
and they look like a rust porkchop .
Why do they always scratch the artefacts by rubbing with muddy hands or gloves?

Please, please, say it right! CAValry no CALvery😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬
oh yes vlf or multi freq cant get that deep so better start in the morning
When are you going to find a cannon ???
yup bring root slayer you cant break that one

Grub = fishbait🐟
Well that was a flop. Buttons and mini balls and that’s it. Fill em back in boys you don’t want the man to be angry.
Your commentary is very good young man. Expand your commentary.
@@larryfelder4404 thanks!
I’d be worried about accidentally digging up a body
"HECK YA " #DAGGUM
hey could you tell Matt Sustek Semper Fi from a fellow Marine. thanks
Semper Fi brother!
@@mattsustek7106 Have a Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas sir.
I don't get how those bullits get so deep
This is farm land and it’s been plowed for years.
Shocked the most over used word on you tube
Trolls the most abundant thing in RUclips.
There is no fast lane. All lanes have the same posted speed limit.
Vote was rigged😂, do enjoy digging dumps more
Shocking, what nonsense
Big deal I find that junk all the time.
Well aren’t you a ray of sunshine. You’ve left 3 comments on this channel none were positive. I’m hoping things get better for you……..
@@adventurearchaeology I'm just a negative person always will be nothing is good
I highly doubt you have opportunities to dig in dug in civil war winter camps "all the time". Otherwise you wouldn't be calling the finds we made "junk". A true relic hunter understands the historic importance to every artifact recovered. Maybe one day you'll find the appreciation for the hobby and if not, go find a new one.
