What’s with all the broaches? Were they covered in the things or what, if they were lost so easily, why would you purchase another?? I get they were also currency but, it just seems like I’m missing something, you find broaches like I find modern pennies That silver cross with the split ends- held a stone. The cross was laid on top of the stone and wrapped around, when hung from the neck the stone was beneath the cross. It was still retaining some of the shape. I don’t remember where I saw it but it was on display somewhere
The broaches were the most popular traded item. They were light weight and easy to produce. The natives would wear them on their clothing and would lose them easily.
I guess thats why metal detecting hasn't ever excited me. I wouldnt bend over to even pick up anything you have found in this video. None of it has any real value.
Great finds. Congratulations and thanks for sharing!!!

That’s what I love about the hobby, nothing is what it seems- thanks
At 17:40 maybe top to a powder horn? In that spot need to dig big iron will be lots of gun parts/ cool iron relics
That’s a good thought. Could be a powder horn. Thanks for the comment.
Sweet Cross ✝️
Thank you
Sweet finds!
Thanks man
So many broaches! I'd like to see how these were being worn back in the day that would cause them to be so easily lost.
I will do a short or a vlog on them soon to give more detail. these were worn all over the shirts though as many as 20 at a time.
The lid looked like it was from a stein.
Interesting, that’s a good guess. I didn’t even think of that.
Could those be hair clips not broaches?
They could be used as either I suppose. Perhaps I’ll post a short with a historical image of how they were worn. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Metal Detecting isn’t for everyone, thanks for watching though.
