    I just bought a rudimentary introductory metal detector after watching these videos. I live in Western mass, not too far from you!.
    I have a nine-year-old and a 14-year-old that because of our love of the movie goonies love treasure hunting . lol!!!
    With this new set up, we started in our front yard for about 15 min. We found a quarter that was dated with my wife’s birth year, but also found an iron toy truck. A toy that some child played with over 80 to a 100 years ago. The light in my own children’s eye lit up, with these discoveries. Thanks to you I truly think we now have a life long family hobby!

    A hewing hatchet is going to have a bevel similar to a chisel. And that is kinda small it is most likely a kindling hatchet.

    I usually have them turned up so i can hear, and i can't deal with annoying beeps.

    Brad, at 10:47 you said that "you guessed that they (the Boutwell and the Robinson & Ballou tokens) were owned by the same people." Probably not. Boutwell (a miller) issued almost 40 varieties of his token which (is believed) was made by the Scovill Manufacturing Co. of Waterbury, CT. R&B (grocers) issued around 15 varieties of their token. Not sure where they were struck. cf Fuld, US Civil War Store Cards, 3rd edition. Best to you!

    You know Brad. When you found that little lead cup and said how rare it is to fine the Remains of Children...'s toys I almost spit my tea out? When I was young, in my teens, we moved into an old brownstone in S Chicago and it had a coal flap and a chute that went into the basement bin
    I " earned" the task of shoveling out the old coal and taking it out by the 5 gallon bucket. My stepfather at the time was a cop and while I was digging I found bones?? I freaked out cause the house was creepy enough as is without a skeleton in the coal bin.He took the bones to work and had them looked at by someone. He said they were dog bones but I saw the piece of jaw and dogs don't have flat molars? But I was 12-13. The seller was a plumber and there were bins all lined up with elbows and stuff. Tons of them, I also hauled those out by the bucket. And 3 old paint cans. They were heavy, too heavy for paint so I opened them. They were full of pocket change and rolled pennies. I have them in a gallon bag in my house somewhere? I'm 52 now. The silver change I spent but the pennies were just pennies I kept for 40 years. No Large Cents for me.....drink BI***ES !!! I miss Banana Eddie on the eps..

  • @aropals672
    @aropals672 5 месяцев назад +1

    That is a hand made earring. You can tell by the bale connection. The stone looks to be old mined turquoise or possibly opal. The silver is more than likely fine silver rather than sterling. .999 Fine silver doesn't tarnish like sterling. Definitely add a bale for a very nice pendant. Just submerge in a water bath in a tin cup while soldering it on and it won't hurt the stone.

    That earring is probably from India or China. Temu sells them by the bucket loads, for about five bucks a pair. Somebofy should have been wearing earring ptotectors to keep it in their ear!
    Btw, Brad, earring protectors are little silicon sleeves that you put on the ear wire after you put it through the earring hole in your ear. It slides up to sit right behind the ear very snug on the wire. It keeps the swinging of the earring from making the wire work out of your ear, resulting in a lost earring!
    Great video, as always!

  • @YsabetJustYsabet
    @YsabetJustYsabet 5 месяцев назад

    Interesting stone in that earring/future pendant-- some sort of copper-family thing, maybe? I live in the SW and turquoise comes in every shade from apple-green to deep sky blue, and maybe it's turquoise... but it looks more like a cut of unbanded malachite to me. Or maybe a high-grade piece of chrysoprase? Jade? Could be lots of things. Nice work, though!
    Love the band at the top of the screen; thanks for doing that! Seriously, I wish more detectorists would have some sort of indicator of the kind.

  • @rikspector
    @rikspector 5 месяцев назад

    Brad,
    The Walking Liberty has to be one of the most beautiful modern coins I ever collected, but
    I rarely if ever saw one in pristine condition, it was too bas relief.
    WE have the technology to determine the makeup of the metal in that musket ball
    and it's general time of manufacture, but the equipment is expensive.
    I have seen hand held devices used by Field Geologists and there are two laboratories
    ones used for content analysis on Course of Oak Island.
    Just dreaming, but wouldn't it be cool if the field device was relatively cheap and even
    coins which have been worn badly could be identified by their composition of metals.. Oh well:)
    Great day for both of you, of course
    Vernon will be spoiled.
    Cheers,
    Rik Spector
