  • This was an adventure to remember. While out scouting a new area I discovered a site that yielded five really cool Civil War artillery shells in afternoon. I will definitely return to this fantastic and relic rich site to metal detect and even SCUBA dive in the near future. Stayed tuned!

    That's a sail weight used to raise and lower sails on sail boats along with half a dozen other uses and in the 1990's at my store I sold em as RIVER ANCHORS. (At the end of your video you asked what's this?) A sail weight combination sailor item congradulations I sold em around here for 35 bucks a piece.. That one looks authentic though not the chinese crappers I sold in the store..

    Once again you have made a really nice video full of suspense, and even natural decor in the way of that leaf attached by a spiders web to your forehead. I thought at first it might be an injury and was glad when I saw it was only a leaf. What a fun day on the river.

    In Canada, I don't think you are technically permitted to have WW1 or WW2 shells and artillery related artifacts, in your home. We called the military for help identifying ours. They sent a disposal team and explained the artifacts were legally the property of the Canadian Military. Hmm! I don't have enough knowledge about the artillery to feel comfortable touching any of it. You found some great stuff!!!

    I did not read all the comments so this may have been mentioned but the item you thought was a counter weight looks like a projectile from a Lyles Gun. I think they are narrower but that is the first thing that came to mind. If the river was bigger back in the day they may have used one to get a line across. Great hunt...thanks for the videos. NJ

    Those shells do not appear to have been fired. I wonder how they got in the river there. I often heard stories from my friends about people using old civil war ordnance as Ballast for House Boats and small skiffs. During storms they often either tried to escape up those little inlets or storm blew em in little channels where boats sometimes sank and or got stuck after the storms sometimes left as quick as they came.... I would love to hear theories about how that stuff got there. Interesting the reason I watch your videos. Some of em are just dern fascinating..
