    My husband and I live in NE Alabama, and I love climbing these mountains, looking for old treasures. We plan on purchasing a metal detector soon I hope.
    When I do find things, like an old railroad spike, I'll hold it and try and picture the men who worked hard to lay the tracks. His family. His life. It's amazing how one little piece of metal can transform my mind to earlier times 🥰

    My son does metal detecting. He uses a drone to fly over old fields that allows him to spot old house sites that are not visible from the ground. He has found some interesting things.

      Now you can take it one step further and have the drone run LiDAR scan while flying around. It cuts out all vegetation so all you see is the exact landscape. Old roads , Indian trails, cabins, graveyards, mine dumps! Flying it just using the camera and eyes is just fine as well but I’m telling you LiDAR is what will find the stuff that Mother Nature has reclaimed almost 100%

    Donnie - Heaven on Earth!!
    Eley is still selling shotgun shells today, they do have a couple different brands including Eley which are sold here in the USA, I'm very familiar with them. But. Have never seen or heard of what was probably the 2 companies combined,
    That is an old shell for sure.
    Amazing how a hundred year old shell can look just a little tarnished with clear lettering then in another area close by you can barely read another ( the Winchester with what looks like a P ) .
    Have a great Weekend Mr Donnie, God Bless!

    • @donnielaws7020
      @donnielaws7020  Год назад +1

    With the color of that piece of lead you found I would certainly be willing to say that it's a flattened musket ball. All the images I have seen of them, they are white like that and can be of any shape. It could have been from a hunter who instead of hitting his target, hit a tree instead and when the tree came down, it just slowly eroded leaving that awesome find!

  • @stomper2582

    Good morning Donnie, hope you’re doing well!
    I watched your new video this morning and I thought I’d share a little tip you could try on some of those old shotgun shells that you can’t read. You may have tried this already. Lay a piece of paper over the shell and rub across it with a pencil or pen and you might be able to identify the letters or numbers a little better. You’ve probably done this before on some old written material in the past. It may help to try different thicknesses of paper, not sure on what kind works better. I’m just trying to help.
    Also I thought of a video you might consider doing now it’s Spring. It’s a video of all that’s beginning to bloom there , including especially any edible fruits and berry bushes and trees in your area of The Great Smoky Mountains, and identifying each one as you find them. I sure appreciate if you’d do this for me, besides there’s probably others that would love to see the beautiful beauty that’s in your area at this time of year. Just please be careful wherever you’re exploring at all times! May God Bless and hope your day is warm and beautiful. ❤️🙏

    Kynoch is best known for producing ammo for the old Nitro Express elephant cartridges. Very odd that you found that in the mountains of TN.

    The Red Head shot gun shell you found in one video was sold by the Montgomery Ward stores. Starting about 1948 until ???? I think they were made by Federal?
