BRAD! - is the NOT THURSDAY channel yours? Or is it someone stealing your content and reposting it? The channel has more subscribers than this one. I hope if it is not yours that you can get it deleted.
Being a fly fisherman, I can offer a little help. The area in front of a boulder or large rock is called a "Hydraulic cushion." Metal detecting in front of larger boulders shouldn't be ignored. Heavier objects do settle here. The current behind the rock is called an eddy; as you surmised, it's a low-pressure spot in the river. It will form, as you referred to, "coin holes." Not to mention shelter nice trout!
It cracked me up to see that 1 Japanese yen coin! It is the smallest denomination coin still in circulation here in Japan! I looked at the loose change I'm carrying in my pocket today and I have 8 of them that look identical to the one you showed in the video! They are aluminum and at today's exchange rate it takes 154 of those to make US $1.00! Great videos Brad! Keep up the amazing work!
@@NeonCheddar That must be an Americanism, I guess. I'm American, but I have lived in Japan for 50 years and I never heard of a "yenny"! In Japanese it's an "ichi en dama." I don't think Japanese would think of "yenny" because they don't pronounce that first y, so it would just come out "enny" which just sounds like "any" which isn't any fun. I recently read that the Japanese govt. is considering phasing out the 1 yen coin and making the 5 yen coin the smallest coin. We shall see!
I found it ironic that he found that coin with a $$$ machine when I remember a time a local on Okinawa laughed at me when I picked one up off the ground...he said it couldn't buy enough rice to replace the energy I wasted...
The "lantern part" looks more like the burner from an older camping stove. They still make camping stoves,but the modern ones have stainless steel burners whereas the ones made back in the 50's used hard copper or brass.
I've been to that swimming hole. It was ages and ages ago. And my brother lost his keys. We would pull up handfuls of stuff from the bottom and sift through it looking for coins. I don't remember where it was I lived in Vermont as I was only there for about a year. And every day I was surrounded with beauty and kind neighbors.
I was gardening at my home, digging in the dirt, and found a Rolex watch!!!! It had been there a LONG time! I took it to a Rolex jewelry store, and the jewler paid me a very descent amount for it!!!!! You NEVER know what you may find!!!!😊
In the early 70s when I was a kid, I would get the occasional buffalo nickel in change or from my paper route. I would also get a silver dime or quarter and I remember getting some 1943 steel pennies. Silver coins in change pretty much ended in late 1979 when the price of silver jumped up.
The old swimming hole only if it could tell the stories it must hold. Hey Brad your videos a good cup of coffee on the back porch what a way to start the day thanks you sir. God bless , be safe stay well until next time.
This oldster is so appreciative....I loved everything about the limestone creeks and the beautiful green woods of the Ohio and Indiana areas... You're a great friend 😊🕊️
What a beautiful place. We have nothing like that here in northeast Texas! We'd love to come see the Vermont mountains someday. Congrats on the gold ring!
The metal ring is for a lampshade holder on a more modern light. There is a metal piece that goes up around the bulb and has a screw top to hold shade in place.
Brad I find quite a few gold rings scuba diving but this past winter I found my first brass wedding band in the middle of the woods at a site someone was living at that is not on any old maps. That ring is at the very top of my trophy box!
I was yelling out “That’s a yen!” When you found it. Wouldn’t be surprised if the kid of a military family had a nice coin collection and played with it outside, maybe had a pocketful of coins and ran around the yard and lost that one. I ruined my dad’s coin collection by playing with it, and I think we used to carry loads of pennies in the backs of Matchbox trucks.
7:37 look more like a support for a lamp shade for an electric bulb. The kind with the two wires the clip to the support and then use a screw finial at the top.
I think your mystery item is a piece of an old electric lamp. It looks like the base that supports the harp that holds up the shade. Turn it with those pins up, and I think you will see what I mean. I've been enjoying your videos for 2 or three years now. Very interesting and great locations. I appreciate your taking the time to throw in video of the plants and wildlife you run across, too.
The findings were cool for sure but the most awesome thing about this video for me was that stream , sooooo awesome . I grew up in the Texas Panhandle and running water streams were few and far apart and usualy very muddy if you did find one. Such a gorgeous area you live in !
The round looking lamp part may be a camp stove component. Anyway, I really look forward to your videos and enjoy your channel, thanks for taking me along.
Great stuff! I always feel sorry for anyone who loses their wedding band. Think how crushed they and their spouse must have felt. Glad you found it, though.
The first mystery item actually reminds me of a lamp shade piece to a modern lamp….has two places for the wires would have gone around the bulb. Looks like fun at that swimming hole :)
Dude, you don’t know how much peace you bring me, each weekend, with your finds. Life is crazy, and that Yen find had me wondering of the history and travels it has taken. Thanks again for your videos!
Wow, 29K views in 15 hours! Interesting finds, and yes, that is part of a kerosene hurricane lamp, it lifts up the lantern glass for lighting it. The holes introduce air to the flame. I would get back in the swimming hole, all the gravel and sand washed away, leaving the good heavier stuff in the corners.
As water passes large rocks, boulders, wood, etc. then in the center of said structure at the downstream side is a calm spot. As an avid angler I fish those ambush points in rivers and streams as the fish sit in the calm behind the structure downstream.
congrats on the gold....I detect the same places you do so don't feel bad - you now have one more gold ring than I do in 15+ years of detecting! (also w/the D1 & D2)
I am a Vermonter that lives on Lake Champlain. I have tried metal detecting but my detector is a wonky machine that I cannot figure out. I spend a lot of time collecting beach glass. Last year while knee deep in the lake I saw what I thought was a round glass bottle top. To my disbelief, I pulled out a gold wedding band. What are the chances? I can’t find a nail with my metal detector but my eyes found a small gold band in 3 feet of lake water.
There is one spot near here, that I will detect asap! It's after a major swim destination, and it dumps into a shallow rapids area where there are huge bedrock formations that create low pressure zones, and the creek has had areas changed drastically but the rapids have remained! I'm checking on my next visit!
Brad, You probably won't see this comment but I really like how you've enhanced the detecting with those sound squiggles and the identification bar! Cheers, Rik Spector
As always, Brad super quality video congratulations on the ring. Always remember there could be someone new to the hobby and always wear gloves. See you next week.
Nice job on the ring find! I hunt a lot of beaches in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and have found about 50 rings, alas the gold one still alludes me. However this gives me hope. I have begun to hunt some of the smaller streams and found a collection area similar to the one shown in the video. 95 coins, but all modern... still a thrill as my wife was with me and she had a blast! Friday's are the best... thanks Brad.
Don't know how far downstate you wander, but that looks like one of my favorite spots around Jamaica! Probably not tho, I don't think it flooded recently that far south, although that area was so badly hit a decade or so ago. I don't get to Vermont as often as I used to, still my favorite state.
Streams and swimming holes or any watering hole are always a must, just knowing people followed them for many different reasons! Fossils or arrow heads are always in these places! Keep on digging, and I'll catch you on the next.✌️😊
While clearing out some ivy in a flower bed behind my house, I once found a coin that absolutely made my heart skip a beat. About the size of a half dollar and bright shiny gold. Unfortunately, when I pulled it all the way out, it was exactly like the 1 Yen coin you found. Light as a feather. Turned out, it was a token for a free flying lesson at "Any Piper Flite Center". Still pretty cool. But not as cool as a real gold coin of the same size.

@@GMMD Oh I see what i did, sorry about that! Been a sub for years, love your channel!
So all music in all the videos is performed by Brad?If so,I'm not worthy, even if He didn't do it all ,the music and video content is top shelf.

In geology, the process by which flat stones are deposited at reposing angles is termed imbrication.

The old swimming hole makes my imagination run wild.

Hahaha!!! :) Nice man! :) I'm in Tokyo watching these videos too! :)
I showed my kids how a 1 yen coin floats, so random he found one in the US. 😁
And you didn't add that it's called a "Yenny" to any American living/lived in Japan, cmon dude! lol

I live in Quebec Canada when i watch the vidéo the coin seem familiar,foumd it today,it match,
The "lantern part" looks more like the burner from an older camping stove. They still make camping stoves,but the modern ones have stainless steel burners whereas the ones made back in the 50's used hard copper or brass.
Yes, that's what I thought too
I always look forward to Friday morning just for the latest video. The finds were great, but the landscape was amazing! Thanks Brad!
Your content is far more interesting than those who are on the beaches.
Thank you 😊
I think it’s the person’s commentary and enthusiasm which makes it more interesting! Thanks, Brad!
That item you found below the down trees where the stone wall is the top of a hurricane lamp. It's what the chimney sits on I do believe 😊

I don't remember where it was I lived in Vermont as I was only there for about a year. And every day I was surrounded with beauty and kind neighbors.
The Old foreign coin fell off an old spy balloon, no wait, a weather balloon. Yeah that's da ticket!
😊❤
I'm one of those people who find (sometimes) modern jewelry and coins. But you find so much more, you find a part of history.
The music and the sound of the stream makes my day!

Careful with that ring. It didn’t work out to well for Bilbo and Frodo.
Bilbo retired happily & Frodo saved the shire,
But it didn't do Golem any good.
@@anthonysmith5814 MY PRECIOUSSSSSSSSS !!!!!
It’s such a blast watching your videos Brad. Thank you for the enjoyment
Awesome hunt thank you so very much for sharing hope you have a wonderful weekend 👍👍❤️
Alright Brad 👍 struck GOLD.
The old swimming hole only if it could tell the stories it must hold. Hey Brad your videos a good cup of coffee on the back porch what a way to start the day thanks you sir. God bless , be safe stay well until next time.
Beautiful stream, love the sound it makes! Nice finds.
Very nice finds this morning, love watching you every Friday ❤️. Was waiting for you to jump in the swimming hole again. Have a great week
Always enjoy your digs Brad!
This oldster is so appreciative....I loved everything about the limestone creeks and the beautiful green woods of the Ohio and Indiana areas...
You're a great friend 😊🕊️
I'm with you on that.
That is an amazing place to metal detect. So soothing to listen to the stream. Love the ring you found.
Enjoyed this! Loved hearing the running water and seeing the swimming hole.
What a beautiful place. We have nothing like that here in northeast Texas! We'd love to come see the Vermont mountains someday.
Congrats on the gold ring!
Fridays not complete without a video from you!! Thanks for sharing your finds. Congratulations on the ring!!!

What a great spot to treasure hunt on a hot day! Congratulations on the gold ring! Another great video!
Great video today. I would take the ring and have it buffed up.
Your demeanor is par excellence. I truly enjoy your channel by far over the rest of the metal detector community.
I applaud you, good Sir.

Like hunting in old water ways..
Cool 😎
Such a beautiful area and congrats on the ring.... the hallmark does look like an older one...nice
Kudos on all the finds!!!
Beautiful, and the sound of the water. Thank you.
What an absolutely breathtaking place!!!! ❤
Such a beautiful swimming hole. Thx fir sharing 😊
I watch your videos mostly because they connect me to the earth.
Wahoo!! Nice Job Brad!! Great Finds , Congrats!! JJ

Great hunt sir awesome finds God Bless and happy dirt fishin..Virgil
Brad, I found my first gold about three weeks ago. It was also a men's wedding ring. Feels great!
The round looking lamp part may be a camp stove component. Anyway, I really look forward to your videos and enjoy your channel, thanks for taking me along.
Great stuff! I always feel sorry for anyone who loses their wedding band. Think how crushed they and their spouse must have felt. Glad you found it, though.

Love your music, Brad! You’re very talented! xx 🎉
Wow, super cool finds, all the coins, keys.
Greetings from South Carolina
Hi, Brad! Nice to see you again. I'm surprised your tools work in the water. A beautiful mossy stream.
That's Japanese 1 yen. I used to live in Japan.
How fun was that!!! I love all the interesting things you always find! Serious score on the ring! Maybe a hobbitt dropped it! ❤
Man I’m such a big fan. Please keep up the great work
Dude, you don’t know how much peace you bring me, each weekend, with your finds. Life is crazy, and that Yen find had me wondering of the history and travels it has taken. Thanks again for your videos!
Enjoyed this, Brad, as usual. Congrats on that ring!
Congratulations Brad nice finds
Gold ring great day .
If anything the view of beautiful Vermont is always breath taking Ty for sharing
Great video I like how the storm helped reveal some things never seen before.
Your scenic shots are so beautiful ! What a gorgeous place !
Thank you for sharing !
Awesome gold ring. I just found my first gold band not too long ago. I have to catch up with you. Keep Diggin ❤LL
That ring was definitely the coolest thing apart from the axe head ( I like old axes/tools) and how absolutely beautiful that spot is.

I truly enjoy your videos, your presentation is very good and entertaining. You seem to be a natural in front of the camera keep it up. Thank you
Lol, I just did my own episode on how to read the dates on Japanese coins! I found two WWII-era aluminum coins in Maine. Great adventure!
Great video Brad. God bless you
Thank you Brad for the adventure , seeing some beautiful scenery and nice finds especially the Japanese coin !
Great finding the ring. Congrats. Happy swingin and diggin Brad.👍😘
That key is a safe deposit box of DB Coopers. Pretty sure.

The lantern piece is a mantle base that had a iron wire to suspend the mantle fabric, found on Aladin type lamps.

Thanks Rik, I see them all!
@@GMMD That’s really gratifying,because it takes a lot of time to read and respond to
Our comments👍
Fun day. I like the ring and yen. Lots of good puzzle pictures in this one.
Oh, I so want to go to that swimming hole!
Thanks for the video drop! Have a good weekend!
As a detector of old homesteads, springs and creeks in Oregon finding gold and even silver is extremely rare. Nice one man!
Awesome 👍 job therre Brad !! 💙
u got the gold ring ! nice hunt Brad ! - Matt 🏴☠️🤙
I love your swim hole videos keep them coming I look forward to the next one.
Vermont....so beautiful.
Thanks for your video.
