I really can't say enough about this young man, especially the video where he was talking about people saying that he returned his findings to the family that own the land. I appreciate a honest person like him, it's people like him that I know would be an awesome friend, because I try hard to be myself. God Bless you sir and happy diggings
Brad, Love the program. I would like to see a video on your finds and the infamous wall you often refer to when talking on your collection or where a recently found artifact will most likely be displayed . Have you ever traveled to western Ma. to do any detecting? Also , the music you use on the show is perfect and so original. Is this your compilation? Well done Mr. Martin John Graham
I posted a comment on the site where you had a RUclips video explaining your search for "Anna". It read as follows: "This is probably the best video you have made of your exploits with a metal detector, Brad! It is amazing that finding such a small item could 'open the book' to such a HUGE story. Thank you for all your hard work and being such an inspiring person!!"
@@kellychamberlain6093 The imagery and symbolism on the flip side seems pagan though, no? Naked man, bird on a string, wheat? Not super Christian looking to me.
RE: that beautiful little silver tag... The design of a child holding a bird was used in painted portraits in Europe as a symbol of innocence; sometimes the child would be shown kissing the bird, or allowing it to take grain from their lips. Why this meant innocence I don't know, but it was very cute and I can think of four or five paintings with just that sort of thing in it. I have to feel sorry for whoever lost it, but I'm glad you found it. Loved that little sickle, btw; looked like a pruning sickle.
Brad, that was really cool. It must have been a feeling like I had when I found an unrestored early daguerrotype of my great-great-great-grandfather who did in 1848, online. I had been searching for years, and one day I search for it last July, and there it was. I now have seven generations of photographs of my family going all the way back to Nicholas who was a millwright, born in 1798, near Manchester, England. Brad, you have the perseverance it takes to be really, really good at what you do. You have a real skill at telling stories, and admitting your foibles make you all the more relatable, good job man.
@@snickers2877 If you have an image on glass it is an ambrotype rather than a daguerreotype. Daguerreoptypes are on a metal plate covered in a thin coat of silver. Daguerreotypes can be "restored" in that their cases, cover glass and preserver can be repaired or replaced. There are chemical techniques that make a faded daguerreotype temporarily more visible but these do long term damage and should be avoided.
I have to say that in all the different ways I watch people hunt for treasure, that the general things everyone wants is a hidden lost fortune, precious medal, or something that ties you to someone from the past. Finding precious metals with so much detailed information, unless you find a lost treasure(still hoping you do) is a find of a lifetime. I'm seeing a post that you may have found information about her, as a viewer, that is priceless! Thank you.
Absolutely love the videos! You’re definitely one of my favorite youtubers, every video you make you put a lot of effort into it. Keep up the great work and stay safe!
An incredible find that can weave together the past and present. Nice little feature on the detector to find your lost pin pointer, and as always the scenery is gorgeous and looks like a warm day for that time of year.
Brad - You have been given a very spoecial task. The name of a completely anonymous person out of history has been brought to your attention. It is now your duty to learn as much as you can about Anna. Something about Anna's life has meaning in your life or the lives of your family members. Don't fail in this task! Something like this happens only rarely in our modern world.
Your medallion find gave me cold chills. That is my daughter's birthday, and that's obviously a father's gift to his daughter, or at least that's my take. It is amazing. That is a great site, great hunt. Stay safe and keep digging.
My guess on the silver medallion is that it was from a father, given to his daughter. The bird on the string represents the day that the father lets his daughter fly away,possibly on her wedding day. The man is sitting on his daughters hope chest. Just my opinion. It is a very special find.
I believe it probably more likely it would be on the day of her birth. Since the bird is on a string and has her birth date... If it was her wedding day I don't think it would be naming her as "Miss" and I think the image would be releasing the bird... IMO...
@@mcscheck2000 The engraving looks to be deeper etched on the "birth" side and a little more finely engraved. I was thinking that he made the "birth" side when she was born and did the "release" side years later. A very interesting mystery indeed.
@@dannysunwantedopinions He covered it so not to reveal any possible information about the family or connection with the site location... He stated this somewhere within the video but maybe you missed it... I believe he will be doing an update on this in the near future...
First of all, you make the best metal detecting videos on RUclips I've seen on a regular basis Brad. So it's with no surprise that I find myself watching a video of this caliber again. Love it.
Wow! One of your best video productions, to- date! Love when you inset a picture of the actual / clean copy of the coins you find so we can 'see' what you're seeing. Also, made myself chuckle talking back to the video..."Wonder what they did without this (clock key)?"...haha They lost all sense of time!
Hey Folks! If you would like to know more about Anna and her life, I've put together a video about her here: ruclips.net/video/CcEa4SZd7UU/видео.html For daily and up-to-date posts, I invite you to join the Green Mountain community outside of RUclips! My website: www.GMMD.us Facebook: Facebook.com/GreenMountainMetalDetecting Instagram: @Green.Mountain.Metal.Detecting
Great video Brad! You very fortunate and blessed to have such historic areas to detect! You find some awesome relics! I also love how you utilize some of your finds in your bags and such. The closest I can come to that is cleaning up, restoring, whatever you want to call it, rehanging a couple axes and hatchets. One of my favorite activities is cooking. I use my axes and especially one of my hatchets to cut the wood I use to cook. It kinda gives me the feeling of completing a cycle, I guess. I would love to see a follow-up on that pendant. What a beautiful find. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
Ok. I'm hiding this here, because it's not a happy thought. I suspect the Silver Medallion, is to commorate the birth of a child, that did not survive. Birds symbolize peace in mourning culture, but this could also symbolize the freedom of soul out of a tortured body, or the Heavenly Father has 'his eyes upon the sparrow- his eyes are upon us all.' Across the Pond, there would be a small painting, or photo of the child; instead they have a crude carving in the silver. This baby was very important and cherished to have such an expensive piece commissioned in Silver, instead of pewter. NO! I don't suspect that was on her coffin, but that is in such good shape, it wasn't worn like Mourning jewelry in the late Victorian Era, as opposed to this Colonial/Georgian era piece. I would suspect it was in a box to protect it, but that would have rotted away more than 100 years ago. What an amazing find, and the two colonial coppers! Just astounding. Thanks for brining us along.
Ok ok man, I’ll join the little Facebook thing. But hey, let’s be real here. You make great content and I appreciate you. Hope you let us know about the history of the little find today.
Love your video's. That tool is a form of scythe, it's small so it might have been for a child. I used one as a kid on the farm, it would have a long handle on it. You used it by putting the blade, (the sharp part is on top facing the handle), behind the weeds you wanted to cut and pulling towards yourself, with a short jerking motion. I weeded bean fields with one for years. When I got older I used a larger one with a longer handle and did more rows at a time that way. My Grandfather would pay me by the row. (I'd blow it at the county fair) I loved looking back after a days work and seeing how different the field looked and how good they would look at the end of the year compared with ones not weeded or done with machinery or herbicides. Me and my cousins were the last generation to do it by hand on our family's farm and even then it was rare and done more just so we had money for the county fair and so we would win prizes for largest harvests and stuff like that. The good old days, were hard but fun.
The pinpointer finder is cool. My machines don't have that but I do mark every find on a GPS. It's not just handy to find that pinpointer that I have to go get for Brad but it can create an amazing map of the area over time, especially when targets are initially scarce and you fine tune to really hunt the area. Super cool feature of the Deus that I was unaware of! Great editing and music as always. I'll be emailing you about the kids shirts again. My daughter is still bugging me about them and stealing my GMMD shirts! Just thought I would share for others to benefit from. Thanks again Brad!
I probably already commented on this video years ago but its so good with so many amazing finds! Watching the Anna's playlist with Mason today, no school for a teacher's workshop. Anna's pendant is absolutely incredible, and a Nova Constellatio as well as a Connecticut State copper!! This has to be one of your best days digging ever! Awesome video Brad!
Your hand movements over the holes you dig reminds me of a kid show I used to watch many years ago. The Soupy Sales Show. There were 2 puppets that were just hands in a sleeve that looked like dog paws. White Fang and Black Tooth were their names and all you saw was their hand movement and gestures as they spoke.
Man oh man what a find.. I been wanting to find something that for years... Please do give a update in the history of that piece.. Congrats on a great dig..
The silver birth medallion, for Anna, is such an amazing find 😃 Two coppers, the great clock winding key, the brass buckle and that hand sickle; all excellent finds ☺ Fridays are always made better by your GMMD videos. Have a great weekend Brad and family!!
What a great hunt I really like the fines this may be one of your coolest videos yet I'm glad you saved it for this time of the year keep up the great work you are one of my favorite metal detecting videos
Very happy you didn't go with the Oak Island deal. Your videos are always mesmerizing, and I only wish I had enough time left to learn what you have about located sites and treasures. Stay with what fills your soul with joy and thank you for sharing your time with us.
I think it’s home made from an old spoon, maybe a child’s spoon. I have come across this once before at an auction in Vermont where I too live. The spoon is pounded out, then cut with snips to make a hole tang at the top. Looks home or local engraved as well.
How amazing would it be to return that silver piece to her descendants,what a treasured heirloom it would be going foreward for that family!! Good on you Brad if you can get it done!
I love the tag, very cool! The sickle with the handle, I look forward to seeing it finished. You just had a really great day! Even though the finds were 20 minutes apart, they were all really cool! Thank you for another wonderful video!
Wow, what a fantastic find Brad! It's a holy grail if the county or village kept good records on its citizens. I have to agree with you this is the best find I've ever seen you dig out of ground.
Great find. I’m in NE Florida and a few years back I found what I thought was a mud coated can lid. Turned out to be a silver Scottish medallion engraved on both sides with numerous Scottish icons, phrases and mottos. I have shared photos with numerous museums, universities and historians in Scotland, UK and US. Among the engravings is MY family’s motto since 1306. It has been on the cover of American Digger and another article on it is being submitted. Again, you have an amazing find.
That was lovely! I have decided that I want to do detecting of ancient items in Europe. I enjoyed my many digs in New England, prior to now. That pendant was lovely. Nice find!
Brad, From the moment you started searching that arae, I was excited,. That was never touched and apparently there were few indications of residents, but you found it! I hope you are able to share that person's history with us, a unique silver medal has to be begging us to remember that family. I had a lump in my throat when you showed it! Tutankumans woods tomb😁 It's probably the best discovery I've seen, now for DeGrau:) Cheers, Rik
That Tag was dated exactly 199 years before my daughter was born, to the day!!!! How cool is that....Love your videos,you got me to go out and get an Equinox 800...keep up the good work my friend!!!
Watched several of your programs really enjoy! travled to Vermont several times for my company in the 70's and 80's beautiful .I live in north Georgia alot like Vermont.
Hi Brad, wow that silver birth medallion was beautiful and so precious, what a fantastic find, congratulations. The other finds were very cool too, thank you for taking us along, much love. xx 🙏💖
What a great feature to have on a metal detector. I’ll bet you’ll find some interesting info about the person who owned the silver medallion. Yep the blade is a sickle or hook.
Watching this post and hearing that you re-purpose some the buckles you find, made my day. That is awesome!! The other find is pretty cool too, lol. Cheers
Looks like you had a great day! Sure is a great video! Looking forward to hearing what your research into the name & date written on the silver medallion turned up!! Thanks for taking us with you!!
These ard great finds indeed! Your video got suggested on my yt tv but I had to find you here to let you know about the flash I got while watching you! The medal seems to be for someone being baptised, nude, looks like water and the bird... But what made me laugh is the sickle (billhook? French word would be serpe, like the one used by the Druid in Asterix lol) you found, as they are used to collect or cut herbs or flowers and... they are the first thing you loose or forget on a site, just like your pointer that you forget and leave behind when you find something exciting! You came back to the place you had lost the first tool for you to find it now... this medal and tool are yours my dear, It wouldn't surprise me at all! Like if you left them there for you to find much later, like now! 😄 The top of the mountains were the first visible spots when water started receding a long long time ago, which is also where the first ones to arrive stayed at the beginning. They even found fish fossils on Himalayan top mounts! I get flashes like this a lot lately, about myself but also others, like now, I thought it would interrest you! The cut button seems like a cross? Well, hope you find out more about these treasures! Enjoy doing what you love, it's you!! Sophie
Well congratulations that is an absolutely fabulous find hey there should be some more great things out there good luck hopefully he'll let you come back
Brad thank you for the adventure , seeing some amazing finds especially the Silver Medallion and beautiful scenery ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever you maybe doing next ! Doing well here in Kansas .

At first I thought it was a slave tag, but this is way to ornate.
It's a Christening Medal worn around the neck on a chain.

Hi Brad, wow that silver birth medallion was beautiful and so precious, what a fantastic find, congratulations. The other finds were very cool too, thank you for taking us along, much love. xx 🙏💖
What a great feature to have on a metal detector. I’ll bet you’ll find some interesting info about the person who owned the silver medallion. Yep the blade is a sickle or hook.
the pendant the brit belt buckle i don't think it gets any better and the fact you followed up on both stories is so cool your awsome
I AM GIVING YOU A THUMBS UP FOR THE EXCELANT WORK ON THIS PROJECT. I ENJOED THIS ONE THE MOST . I HOPE TO SEE MANY MORE WITH THIS KIND OF DETAILE.
We had a sickle like that in the 1960s. It was an old one and might have been from the ‘50s.
Great tool. Love the finds from today. Thanks ☀️
Great video. Thank you for taking us on your adventure.
I have missed you. Thanks for this episode. Amazing finds!
A really unique find - the landowners should be happy with that & I'm sure there's a great story to discover... 👍🐾🦘😎
Great hunt Brad, thanks for sharing, congratulations on those saves.
As always a great history lesson and beautiful scenery. Your editing and music are awesome!
Wow, Brad, you're killin' it out there. Love the dated charm! That Nova's a daymaker too. GL&HH
Hey Brad 👋👋👋 thanks for the video really enjoy the hunt 😀
Very historic find on the silver medallion. Let us know what happens with that one for sure. The hand sickle is a great find as well. Thank you.
What a great trip! This has got to rank up there for finding the coolest items. Wonderful!
Love the medallion...tell us what you found out about Miss Anna..thanks for the ride! Always an enjoyable day when it starts with GMMD!
Love your hunts mate 👊 all the way from Scotland 👍
Good job Brad sure would like to see that wall
What a cool place and what an awesome find! Congrats!
Watching this post and hearing that you re-purpose some the buckles you find, made my day. That is awesome!! The other find is pretty cool too, lol. Cheers
Looks like you had a great day! Sure is a great video! Looking forward to hearing what your research into the name & date written on the silver medallion turned up!! Thanks for taking us with you!!
Did you ever locate the family of Miss Anna? What became of the medallion? That was a cool find! It may have some genealogical significance.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing the history, love the silver tag ;D
These ard great finds indeed! Your video got suggested on my yt tv but I had to find you here to let you know about the flash I got while watching you! The medal seems to be for someone being baptised, nude, looks like water and the bird... But what made me laugh is the sickle (billhook? French word would be serpe, like the one used by the Druid in Asterix lol) you found, as they are used to collect or cut herbs or flowers and... they are the first thing you loose or forget on a site, just like your pointer that you forget and leave behind when you find something exciting! You came back to the place you had lost the first tool for you to find it now... this medal and tool are yours my dear, It wouldn't surprise me at all! Like if you left them there for you to find much later, like now! 😄
The top of the mountains were the first visible spots when water started receding a long long time ago, which is also where the first ones to arrive stayed at the beginning. They even found fish fossils on Himalayan top mounts!
I get flashes like this a lot lately, about myself but also others, like now, I thought it would interrest you! The cut button seems like a cross? Well, hope you find out more about these treasures!
Enjoy doing what you love, it's you!!
Sophie
