      @Picolas Cage The product debuted at the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago, but it didn't have much success. The modern zipper was eventually designed in 1913 by Gideon Sundback, who worked at the Universal Fastener Company in Hoboken, New Jersey. He received a patent for his “Separable Fastener" in 1917.

      @@Hammondguy88 a story of average human life, going through the daily motions of living, a living less convenient than modern times, less comfortable due to lack of things like air conditioning and transportation. A general lack of connectivity so probably a few friends with mundane average human interactions. Only to one day fall off of something and wait in the mud for hundreds of years to be found.

      I disagree. It is a militia button, but from Manchester, England that was probably brought to America in the 1700's by the English colonists. Just like how one of the buttons he found said 'London'. The same British colonists, and their kids, who later rebelled against their own government to form the United States.

    I hope you had a great fourth, that USA button is awesome. Have you tried using a bug net for your face?
    Nice picture of a Jack in the Pulpit
    We had a 27 acre farm in Jackson, NJ There was a lot of History in that area.
    I spent most of my early years wandering the woods and looking at everything..No metal detectors in those days(1947 to about 1954)
    Found some Leni-Lenapi arrowheads and some trade pottery and broken clay pipes.
    Our neighbors home(the nelsons) was built in the 1730s or so, and he farmed the land between his house and the brook(north branch of the Metedeconk River).
    The field had a lot of arrowheads and some turtles feeding on the wild strawberries. Many has initials carved into their carapaces.
    In 1960, we lost the farm but that summer I was walking the field and found a huge box turtle.
    When I turned it over it had carving on the shell.
    Lt Opey Y co. 189? How old was that turtle to have been big enough to have that carving a still be alive in 1960?
    I suspect LT. Opey might have been with some NJ regiment from the Spanish American War.
    I almost took it home, but then I figured ..what if it died?
    So I left it there,, a living tribute to our past.

I also loved your comment about the thimble.

I wait every Friday to be to with you on your story. Really should do these videos knowing you make it seem we are with you and experiencing all of your surrounding. Truly remarkable presententation.. Thank you I should say documentaries, really.

      BOOSTED70KG, THE BEST cinematography on You Tube, as least for sure in the Metal Detecting community. AND he puts the perfect music with each one!

    Phenomenal hunt Brad as always! You really need to enter the detector of the year contest that is going on. Many in the metal detecting community feel your hunts & professional cinematic videos would win it from the USA. Please consider entering.

      Thanks Deej! I've been contacted by the judge but, for me, making videos is for the enjoyment of the outdoors, telling a story and sharing my adventures with others. I have no desire to be considered “the best”, or even be compared to other folks doing the same thing in a competitive way. I wish everyone who enters the best of luck!

    I am so glad you put down the GPS Co-ordinates of where you find everything. It would be so important for historians in the future and present in order for them to research the Continental Army in Vermont.

    Really amazing finds Brad. Grats on your first USA Continental Army button. I used Renaissance wax on mine because the button will never stop falling apart threw time. I also dug the same molded standard button in the same spot, about 7 to 10 of them. Grats on such a rare find and so many other amazing finds. P.S. I agree with "Ruby and me"on there comment about the buckle. Awesome video & grats again.
