  • Into the creek we go in search of American Civil War relics. Glad not to be in the office, Mike and I search the waters for coins, buttons, and other treasures. Mike suspects this area may have relics in it because he had found a few bullets near the water on the bank not long before. Boy oh boy, do we find relics.
    About Aquachigger:
    I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure, metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my RUclips "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
    BTW, you can also catch me here, / chiggsarmy ,but I may get a little edgier there. FB isn't a place for kids anyway...lol.

    That tube thing is a base to a antique fishing rod. The base of the reel is still inside of it.

    The item at around 4:20 is a mallet. The two openings on either side of the handle had soft material to persuade things into position. I've seen the with rolled rawhide, copper, lead, plastic, etc.

    odd curved bit is the handle off of a mug. the tiny protuberance is the spot you anchor you thumb to. might have been a wooden tankard w/ a metal handle. they hooked over the rim of the wood, or onto the bands that held the wooden parts together, IF it was made like a barrel.

    Very good finds today! But the least of them, for me, was the most provocative. Fifty-odd years ago, it was assumed in my area the two best beers were Budweiser and Schmidt's. Somewhere along the way, I moved to another part of the country and Schmidt's disappeared. Due to your find, I now know Christian Schmidt Brewing went out of business in 1987. Thanks!
