    I watch a guy in eastern Tennessee named Greg and he has a saying. It's history that makes a find a treasure. You prove that with every video. Thank you, sir.

      Thank you very much. I couldn’t agree more. I love the history and finding it is the treasure.

    Great video as always. I definitely agree with other comment that the brass piece found with the pipe is a nose cap to a early rifle... late 1700-early 1800s. love your sites you detect.

    Eric, you always seem to find interesting items. Thanks for taking us along with you. It is very exciting to be there when you discover another historical relic.I feel the same excitement you do. Keep up the good work brother. Most of the research I have done indicates that one of the most traded items to the indians was glass beads. Do you find any where you dig?

    • @Eric_Detectorist
      @Eric_Detectorist  5 месяцев назад

      I have found several glass beads. I catalog my finds on a mapping app. With those designated to return too someday and sift. When I do I’ll film it…

    So what's going on with the silver brooches? Never saw one until I watched a couple of your videos, you find them like you'd find wheat pennies in my area it seems. Also is that a EQ 700 or 900?

    • @Eric_Detectorist
      @Eric_Detectorist  5 месяцев назад +1

      Shirt broached as they are called were the possibly the most commonly traded item for furs only second to musket balls. They were worn on a shirt and were made of thin stamped silver. They were also lost quit frequently. Natives could wear 20 or more at a time. I use the 800 equinox. Great questions, Thanks for asking.
