I'm sorry to hear you suffer panic attacks. 5 years ago i was in a very bad place with panic attacks and Anxiety after a nasty neck injury to my trigeminal nerve in my neck. First thing i did was give up drinking alcohol totally and still haven't had a drink to this day. The second was to start taking a drug called propranolol. It stops the adrenal gland releasing adrenaline to the heart. Thus causing a panic attack. It works and worked for me immediately. I only took them sparingly. Good luck. Stay busy.☺
The 1st time I had covid, I searched for things on TV (just for some background noise) & found Brad's videos. I was able to rest comfortably and get better as his voice is soothing, and the ads weren't unbelievably loud like they are with some other you tube videos.
Great fun! Thanks for bringing us along! My husband's first awesome find, done for a lady who called us to search, was her Grandmother's wedding ring. He found it in the hog pen!
I love this episode! Awesome to see you slaying silver with Joe. What an excellent event i will definitely have to look into this one for the future. You typically hunt old cellar holes and fields, if you did a little more door knocking and focused on small yards of houses that are still standing from the 1800 and early 1900's you would have 150 silvers on the year too. I will say we arent used to hearing the Fast and Furious or War of the Worlds sirens going off in your videos, HAHAHA! Mason and i have over 100 silvers in 2024 too, but we recently found out private permissions with old houses are producing the most old coins, silvers and even military buttons. We would love to see you doing more videos like this. Thanks so much for sharing the info about the event and what fun to watch you popping so much silver, Congrats on that Seated Quarter - AMAZING FIND!
Brad, it was nice meeting you that weekend, hanging out in the back of the school bus! Glad you had a fun and successful time. Hope to see you there next year! (I still think you should have named this episode "6 sites in one day, the mad dash for treasure!" :) I ended up with 4 silvers that day, 2 in the "hot spot" in your video. I wish we could have stayed longer there!
This channel and the guys down in South Carolina, *"Dig that Beep,"* are by far my favorite metal detectorist RUclips channels to watch. Both channels have incredible production values. There is never any profanity on either channel. Both hosts, as well as the supporting cast on "Dig that Beep," put a lot of time and effort into the necessary research in order to be as successful as they are. The guys in South Carolina spend a significant portion of their spare time each year knocking on doors after their initial research shows them potential homesteads, businesses, and churches that might offer up places where they could possibly find old relics, copper coins, and silver coins. That's in addition to public property such as schools, which in South Carolina are perfectly legal to metal detect without permission.
This is currently the BEST metal detecting channel on all of YT. I detect and live in Cape Cod. I have found a 10+ carat single stone ring over 200 years old, a 36 diamond 14k ring, a gorgeous 18k chain with an 18k pendant in perfect condition... I might even make a channel soon. But, that aside - Aquachigger is the OG, but man you have been around a while now. Your production quality is BY FAR the best out of any of the detecting channels. You are always polite and fun to watch. Your historical expertise are second to none. I am very intelligent and own a tech company...I know history and I was born in Boston and raised in New England. It always blows my mind how much you know about relics and coins. Do you cut the film and look things up on your phone... then go back and explain? Or do you really know that much about historical items? I look forward to your videos every week and always watch one before I go on my own adventures. I finally bought a GoPro 12 so lets see what happens! Thanks for all the content - I know the pain involved in editing while and producing videos - and digging.. a lot. Amazing finds like always. The places you get access to are pretty mind blowing tbh :D
Wow! I just saved the link. I didn't realize you'd be in East Durham, or I would have attended. You were so nearby! Great video! Hope to do a hunt with you someday. I've got some good secret 18th c. locations that need to be finished cleaning out.
That's funny... I don't find much silver either. We hunt similar sites - old, early places. Just not much silver in these spots. Shoe buckles and parts and sash buckles, buttons... I got a box full. lol
Hey! Blackthorne! Did you find Jimmy DiResta? You need to go there for the Maker Camp and meet all the makers, do some blacksmithing, and maybe even some leatherwork!
So much fun! Hubby bought me a metal detector 2 yrs ago, but due tyo unavoidable circumstances, I have not been able to use till last week. Found nothing yet, but who knows, might get to do some of that in the next week or so.
That's your second centennial coin you've found recently. Not sure what it was but it would be cool if it had also been a quarter. Imagine what you could have found in three days? You would have had to drag me away from there!
Good job. I love the face of the Mercury dime. Limited European history in America, but it is built on gigantic events. I think European history is a lot longer in the USA than the history controllers let be known though.
Most of those Our Lady of Graces medallions were pendants. They were popular as centerpieces in rosaries but generally one loop means they were around a neck. Yours is 20fh c., but silver was a popular composition for these items going back into the 19th c. The best ID resource on religious medallions is Bob Forrest’s book.
Very nice Brad. Congrats on the Wheaties, IHP, Mercury Dimes, Silver Washington Quarter and especially the 1876 Seated Quarter. Excellent Hunt. Take Care Brad
The 1882 penny and 1943 dime could have been from the same pocket. It's only 61 years apart. In the 1950s I remember receiving Indian Head pennies in change as a young boy. BTW your videos are the best. They always put me in a good mood. Thank you, Brad.
Ah looks like I missed a fun weekend.... Our home here in Vt boarders and old 1800s school house, a brooke divides us..... Found some cast iron dolls, and getting on some coins....✌🏻💚🙏🏻💪🏻
Don’t feel bad Brad. I only have one silver quarter so far this year, but I did come across a spectacular late 1700-early 1800 silver Dutch Button with 3 hallmarks on it. 153 silvers is just unthinkable!
My Wife and I enjoy your Channel, and watch it together every week. In the early 1970's, I bought a White's Coin Master 4 Metal Detector, and loved finding stuff. I enjoyed finding Store Tokens, and of course older coins. Like you, I would look up where the Store may have been, and when. Always enjoyed learning the local History. The Metal Detectors, today, are amazing! They penetrate much deeper and can better Tune out Junk. Although, I would dig everything, as ya just never know, Right? Then I moved to the Big City, and once here, lots of folks had Metal Detectors, and it was hard to find much in the way of older stuff, and Modern stuff, unless it was Jewelry, was no Big Deal. Another modern Clad dime? Yawn. Alas, here in the Big city, laws and regulations on top of regulations were in place, and the threat of them being enforced kept me from doing much Detecting after that. Had to get a City Permit to Search a city Path, or Park that had been Searched a thousand times before etc. but, detecting coins and other loot was a fun Hobby, and I very much enjoy watching your videos. They are artistically done, and there is a noticeable lack of profanity, which my Wife appreciates. Good Hunting!
Just for good learning sake people should only have 3' X 6" digging trowels forcing them to learn how to pinpoint. First couple minutes of the video I see full sized shovels being used in YARDS. NEVER would have been allowed back in the 1980's.
Such awesome finds! I believe I saw a date of 1830 below the feet of that person on the religious pendent. Also, when I was a small child, I remember seeing a few Mercury head dimes in the church offering I got back in the late 50s. I was so fascinated with them that I started collecting coins in my early 20s. Over 45 years ago.
Some great finds. I don't metal detect but i have found money and jewelry randomly that someone lost. My best find was an eighteen karat gold bracelet. Just walking along the beach, standing and looking out at the beauty of it all,waves washing over my feet,i looked down and saw something shiny, the wave had washed some sand back. I picked it up and looked ,thinking it's costume jewelry until i looked at the marks on the clasp.
Always enjoy watching your show you do a great job and by the way you scared me when you and Eddie were looking for the lost treasure and Eddie disappeared you had me good job
I definitely appreciate the older items you find out in the woods, where silver was much more rare and precious. But it was fun for a change of pace to see you dig at that event. I guess the difference in you and the silver king is locations, school yards have tones of lost change, homesteads have everything else interesting.
how did you get started in metal detecting - did you have a friend that showed you the ropes or did you just get a detector and start messing around? I enjoy your videos, and think it might be fun to try, but the history in the area I live in is probably no where near as interesting as out east there. Thanks for your videos!
Fun fact: whenever I’m having a panic attack, I put on one of your videos. For some reasons it’s really grounding. Thanks for the weekly content.
Me too.
Maybe don't use this one. That siren made me think there was an approaching tornado or an imminent air raid!

It’s great to see people with a common interest hang out together, nice work
Great fun! Thanks for bringing us along! My husband's first awesome find, done for a lady who called us to search, was her Grandmother's wedding ring. He found it in the hog pen!
Wow! Grandma’s Ring is worth searching a hog pen for. Glad he found it!
Good job. Hope you find something really nice for yourselves.
How incredible, what an exciting hunt, congratulations on all the sweet silver
What an amazing day!!! Beautiful treasures... Thank you for allowing us to tag along😊
Hey bubba I hope you and your family are doing well . I bet that kid is getting big . going to be hunting with you one day? Tell Chris I said hey 😂
What a great place to go. Congratulations on your great finds.
As a coin collector, I love the old coins!
Looks like fun. Joe is a good dude and hell of a detectorists, I've hunted with him a few times.
Awesome day for silvers! 👍🏼LL
Looks like a unique and fun event. Thanks for sharing your experience.
❤ glad all had a wonderful time. Gonna have to check it out, great finds even wet

I absolutely love your videos, you are very informative about everything you dig. You are a very good instructor to listen to.
Silver always makes the day better! My personal best silver day is 13, and I'd love to beat that some day...lol.
What a great event looks like great fun,😅 wish I was as always here.
Привет! Поздравляю с великолепными находками!!! Ох уж эти школьники, голодные остались 😅

What a fun day! Good finds. Looking forward to seeing your next adventure ❤

I look forward to "Fridays With Brad"
Hey! Blackthorne! Did you find Jimmy DiResta? You need to go there for the Maker Camp and meet all the makers, do some blacksmithing, and maybe even some leatherwork!
Great job Brad
Good morning from Copperhill Tn. Are you taking school kids lunch money!!😂😂😂😂😂
What a fun event! So happy you found all the silver that you did! Wahoo!
That was some cool finds
Love your show brother,your day definitely has a silver lining.✌️👍
Very cool there should be more hunts like this I do a lot of detecting all winter especially beach and rivers 150-300 silver a year
Amazing coins Brad, that seated quarter is insane! Great hunt and video!
Nice finds Brad. I really look forward to Fridays to hunt with you.
Thats awesome Brad congrats your friend Joe is doing great i am up to 136 so far this year
I just found a 41 Washington quarter with an S mint mark and it graded out at $40
I wish that we had digs like that in the PNW. All of the big digs I hear about are all out in the Eastern half of the US. Great day for you and Joe!
Great episode
It's good to see you out with other people with the same hobby
Hey Brad. I really liked this one especially the silvers found and congrats on the 1875 Seated quarter.
Theres a year on the pendant 1839 i think i saw
That's mah dawggg! Joseph killing it. Congrats on the seated, always a great day seeing one of them come out.
Great find's 🎉
No telling how many you could have found in 3 days! Thanks for sharing!
I’m fighting off the green eyed monster. I ❤❤❤ coins. Kudos.
It would be an awesome thing to attend... you had an amazing hunt!!!
So much fun! Hubby bought me a metal detector 2 yrs ago, but due tyo unavoidable circumstances, I have not been able to use till last week. Found nothing yet, but who knows, might get to do some of that in the next week or so.
For a non-planted hunt, that's an amazing haul! Almost doubling your silver total for the year in one hunt, incredible! Nice location as well!
More silver than you can shake a stick at...or, swing a coil over. Gotta Love It!
That's your second centennial coin you've found recently. Not sure what it was but it would be cool if it had also been a quarter. Imagine what you could have found in three days? You would have had to drag me away from there!
@ 2:53 1943 not 41 mercury dime... 🤠🌵🌵🌵🍺
I agree, love finding the old copper coins, but there’s something about seeing that shine of a silver! 👍😎🐆🐆
Good job. I love the face of the Mercury dime.
Limited European history in America, but it is built on gigantic events. I think European history is a lot longer in the USA than the history controllers let be known though.
THANK YOU 👍🙏>>>💚
Dang! That mercury dime is in good shape!
Most of those Our Lady of Graces medallions were pendants. They were popular as centerpieces in rosaries but generally one loop means they were around a neck. Yours is 20fh c., but silver was a popular composition for these items going back into the 19th c.

Sound like a cool event.
Very good day silver king . Blessings
I found that same seated quarter last year it also was my 1st seated the funny thing is that mine is 1876 also.
Very nice Brad. Congrats on the Wheaties, IHP, Mercury Dimes, Silver Washington Quarter and especially the 1876 Seated Quarter. Excellent Hunt. Take Care Brad
Great video. Those Mercury dimes are incredible.
The 1882 penny and 1943 dime could have been from the same pocket. It's only 61 years apart. In the 1950s I remember receiving Indian Head pennies in change as a young boy. BTW your videos are the best. They always put me in a good mood. Thank you, Brad.
What kind of metal detector are you using...Incredible find...
Ah looks like I missed a fun weekend.... Our home here in Vt boarders and old 1800s school house, a brooke divides us..... Found some cast iron dolls, and getting on some coins....✌🏻💚🙏🏻💪🏻
Thanks for this. I’ve already contacted Blackthorne about next year’s hunt. Another fan from South Carolina!
What a neat event! Congrats on your finds!
Don’t feel bad Brad. I only have one silver quarter so far this year, but I did come across a spectacular late 1700-early 1800 silver Dutch Button with 3 hallmarks on it.
153 silvers is just unthinkable!
I think I have a silver addiction. I love to find silver. I probably skip over gold just looking for silver.
Greetings from South Carolina 🎉
Seated liberty is a great fine. My favorite quarter is standing liberty. Standing liberty was only done with quarters.
Congrats on all the silver Brad! Especially the seated quarter.
An incredible trip, congratulations to the organisers, just brilliant 😊
Looks like 1839 for the medallion pendant…what an awesome gift

Amazing episode. Have you ever considered doing an episode showing your collection and how it is displayed?
Just for good learning sake people should only have 3' X 6" digging trowels forcing them to learn how to pinpoint. First couple minutes of the video I see full sized shovels being used in YARDS. NEVER would have been allowed back in the 1980's.

The word coincidence begins with coin! Happy hunting!
You find a lot of amazing stuff 😊
my favorite joke of this video - guy finds a gun - "lets call the cops"... you have those magnet fishing videos on sub dont you?
I imagine folks at a resort in NY would hace more money in their pockets than a farmer in Vermont, especially silver.
Why does NJ Coin Hunter look like he could pass as your buddy Chris's twin brother lol Awesome video bro
Some great finds. I don't metal detect but i have found money and jewelry randomly that someone lost. My best find was an eighteen karat gold bracelet.

Always enjoy watching your show you do a great job and by the way you scared me when you and Eddie were looking for the lost treasure and Eddie disappeared you had me good job
Great dig. To bad you couldn't stay. Did you ever hear how much more Joe got
Wasn't that one of the Hoover Boys @ 09:45 running after that ewe with his pants down around his ankles?
Q : who own the finds.. can you keep it or does it belong to the landowner or something ???
8:59 Does it show "1839" below Mary's feet?
How in the world do you only have 174k subs? Your content is the best!
I definitely appreciate the older items you find out in the woods, where silver was much more rare and precious. But it was fun for a change of pace to see you dig at that event. I guess the difference in you and the silver king is locations, school yards have tones of lost change, homesteads have everything else interesting.
Awesome finds congrats Brad cool hunt
1928 Merc. Was the year my grandpa was born.
So good
I'm pretty sure that silver medallion you found had an 1839 date on the front of it.
how did you get started in metal detecting - did you have a friend that showed you the ropes or did you just get a detector and start messing around? I enjoy your videos, and think it might be fun to try, but the history in the area I live in is probably no where near as interesting as out east there. Thanks for your videos!
alot of those one screw hole brass thingys are probably lock keyhole covers. they tended to cover keyholes for saftey reasons, I guess
Awesome! A centennial quarter to go with the centennial half you found not to long ago. 😊❤
I'll be getting a Daus 2 soon 👍
Could you ever comment on the approx value of these coins?
