I hope you enjoy this fun metal detection. I find some pretty cool stuff and am ready to head back to this camp for MOAR relics. Please don't forget to like and subscribe. Chigg
Here is a link to a video where I talk about these artifacts: ruclips.net/video/Ak01b53xDcI/видео.html
Hey there 🙂
I'm giving a thumbs up for the puppy and kitty 👍
A great day for Aquachigger finding civil war relics. This goes to show that good stuff is still out there. You just have to do the research, get permissions and go looking. No one does this better Chigg.
I'm glad to see someone else has come to the same conclusion as myself on the theory of "pain bullets!" I've always said that was a myth, and for the same reason you gave. Great video Chig!
@homelandrelics. Too many people still think otherwise. Thanks
@@aquachigger Just saw an ad a couple of days ago for 2 bullets. They said one had teeth marks from a hog and the other had "human bites". I didn't bite.
@@TomFromMN
Sounds like eBay crap to me!
Am I right?!?
@@davestelling Probably. I try to read/scan a lot but I remember little! lol
Chigg would be really cool to find someone that collects and actually fires muskets and rifles. Do a demonstration with him showing how the weapons were loaded and fired. That would be a very interesting video I think.
I love Chigg's videos. He's the Champagne of RUclips. My favorite. Tannic acid is the active ingredient in the best anti-rust formulations on the maket. Put it on a rusty part and it darkens to a purple black. It's so good at stopping oxidation that they apply it to rusty guard rails in northern states. I bought a can of 3M spray to hit the rust spots on my car to slow it down. 33 bucks a can. I've never seen anything work like it.
Great video,nice to see some Confederate pieces!
Awesome finds
You were on it today! Musket hammer and gardners! You were really on point with your tutorials as well. Brilliant vid! Thanks
Just a little bump in appreciation. Thanks, Beau.
Thanks so much! I always appreciate a donation, it helps with my gear purchases.
Good afternoon my friend...Spectacular discovery...Very inspiring and motivating .Good luck ...Greeting from Indonesian traditional gold prospecting 🇮🇩⛏️⚒️💎😍👍👍👍
Fantastic finds Chigg!
Nice dig,lots of cool stuff!
Great day out digging up that history👍🏻
Fantastic finds. Thanks for sharing.
Chigg’s so many musket balls and Gardner buttlots. Loved the hammer gun piece and the horse tack buckle. I hope you go back there for more civil war relics.👍👏😀
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota
'evening
Great hunt Chigg. Always informative watching your videos. Thank you.
Nice finds Chigg!
i always like watching your videos. not only do I see the great finds ... I also get history information
Duuude, you an mr Gardner had a good day..😉
Hello from Arizona, Chigg. Great video and love seeing the relics.
Gotta love a good lead day Chigg!!!
Very nice hunt, thanks for sharing. 😎
Great hunt 👍👍❤️
You hit the jackpot this time Chigg
Excellent video. Very good information.
Thanks
Awesome bullets Chig. I'm glad you show the junk, I dig alot of junk. Rk.
Real diggers do. Those who don't, aren't.
Small and heavy..keep em coming!
I like the bullets👍👌😊
I hunted with a round ball and patch with my muzzle loader for years and took a bunch of deer with them.
Great day! ♥
A great Confederate camp . I believe I would go back if possible , I'm thinking emm' Confederate buttons , buckles who knows. Great video Chigg thanks.
I really enjoyed this video because of how excited you got finding all of those bullets that were dropped. Period maybe in the next video you’ll find gold coins…. we can always dream.
Whooo hooo!
You Got Some Good Pick's 😎🍻👍✌.
Hi Your hobby looks like fun. I plan to enjoy it when I retire soon. Maybe the spike you found was for a tent.
that two ringer gardner would rattle you clat hey chig man hooo weeee
I wish I could do this. I would like to metal detect Civil War sites. But with health issues I can't. I visited many battle sites which was very interesting.
Nice Hunt Beau. Was the Gardner bullets made at the Richmond arsenal? Take care my friend.
Thanks for the Cool Adventure Chig...and the Bullet primer(get it?)
Excellent
I so love when you find artifacts of that era < I live in northern MN so won't find any of that cool stuff ,,,
Squirrels will actually eat the tops of the lead boots on your vent stacks on roofs. Apparently lead doesn't effect certain animals like it does other animals.
That is correct. We sometimes find rodent teeth marks in them as well. Lead tastes sweet.
Great finds. I live in Massachusetts so i wouldn't find any of that stuff. Especially in a city or town environment. Thanks for the educational adventure
I saw an awesome idea the other day and seeing how muddy your hands got in this awesome video made me thik it might work you you as well...
Take an empty laundry detergent jug rinse it out pretty good and jut put it in the back of your truck and use it to wash your hands and what not. Wouldn't suggest drinking out of it though
Maybe that small horshoe looking thing was the heel plate on a boot issued to a soldier?
Looks like a broken chain link or something like that.
Overtime got me.
Sorry to hear that. Time to relax I hope.
Yay, yankee bones!
31st like, your metal detecting videos are super cool, chigg
Thanks, happy to hear you like them.
@@aquachigger i do like them, its really awesome that you find old relics like bullets, horseshoes, old coins, buttons, basically anything.
17:45 that plant your metal detector is resting on is called mullein. You dry it and can use as either a tea or a smoke. Helps naturally pull out the phlegm! FYI (strain the tea cause of the hairs)
Good day...
g'day.
chig man that flat oval iron peace is fire steel fire starter ring
Fresh lead is very soft and easily mailable with a hardness of 1.5 moh's. You can easily scratch lead with a fingernail. That white coating on old lead is Lead dioxide and it has a hardness of between 5 and 6 mohs. Hard enough to break your teeth or your fingernails that have a hardness of 2.5 mohs. Those bullets were much softer when they were new. A person can easily make teeth impressions in pure lead but not lead dioxide.
Bite hard on a freshly poured bullet and get back with me.
I have tried it on fishing weights I made myself. While I can put divots in the lead rather easily the marks look nothing like what I have seen on civil war bullets. I agree its wild animals chewing on them!
I wonder if the hammer was from a double barrel gun. It looked like a left hand side hammer
It is. They were common for Confederate Cavalry to carry.
US Army buckshot cartridge was 12ea .30 caliber balls.
16:35 😂😂😂😂
Aluminum Naughty Conspirators Trying to lead you astray tant Happening today!!!; )😂😅
Hey Chigg
great location. what color uniform would you have worn ?
Who else likes all his videos within ten seconds of watching? Lol
I wonder how many of them bullets you find have taken someone’s life went through them
I’m sitting here waiting for that talk
Looks like they dropped more bullets than shooting them 😁
Let’s be honest, the real stars of the show are Bobbie Wobbs and Fiona. The Chigg is a runner up.
Why is melted lead so common around civil war camps. Were a lot of their bullets being hand made?
They poured some of their bullets but most of the time they used the powder to help start a campfire and throw the bullet in the fire.
Humans bones for sure!! Some poor soldier got his arm shot off and you found it and the bullet
Bo, have you ever found any Civil War soldier bones while metal detecting?
Maybe.
So how much is a dropped Gardner bullet worth in perfect shape and color? Looks like your on a great site looking forward to more thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
$8-$10+
@@aquachigger wow that’s cool thanks beau 👍🏼👊🏼
Really like the dig's chig. What state was that in? I learned something from your video when I start hunting again here in North Carolina.😊😊
Mr. Chigg, can you tell me what diameter the buck shot are? Are they .32”? I’m asking because I would like to experiment with making some buck and ball cartridges for my Charlaville musket. It’s a .69 caliber.
I believe they were usually .31, but .32 is close enough...lol.
Hello Chigg, with all the Gardner bullets you found in a small area, do you think that might have been a Confederate camp?
Ok
What time did this video come on at?
A couple years ago, I dug a gold guilt Mississippi Volunteer Corps button (MVC) .
I’ve always wondered what its worth?
Depends on its condition.
It is in excellent condition …
Doc, "Here Jeb....bite on this while I work on ya." Doc, "Dang Jeb.....I didn't say try and bite it in half.....now I gotta fix them gawl dang teefs." Could that hammer be from the left side of a double barrel shotgun?....or as a cajun says.....a twice barrel.
Wild hogs will chew on lead to why I don’t know
That buckle looks like a shoe buckle it is shaped like the top of your foot
was wondering - what is your greatest find '')
My wife.
@aquachigger Wise man.
@@raynin She hasn't changed the locks yet? Yeah, you're lucky! But so are we for all you share!
@@aquachigger
Your a very, very blessed man, Beau...
My teeth are strong enough.
Isn't the Gardner bullet the only bullet made in the South "during " the Civil War?
No, there were many other types.
What chewed on the lead and why?
Watch the video and learn the answer.
Yea, I jumped the gun thanks.@@aquachigger
If the amputation didn't kill them lead poisoning did!
Farmers let their hogs forage. Pigs would find a mini or round chew on it & splt it out= teeth marks. Or eat something that had a bullet in it. Umm not getting graphic about it.
An orange?
Aluminium foil, not Civil War era- no, certainly not!
In that time, aluminium was worth more than gold!
I wonder how many pigs died of lead poisoning?
I can't bite it i didn't have any teeth im gumless🌝
that plug at 4:10 approx is clearly virgin ground which is awesome.
Yep, it was wooded and never turned by a plow.
I heard if you bite the bullet your dead.
That's if you buy the farm.
First
Now we know why the south lost. They dropped at their bullets.
Wonder if your wife gets upset with all the mud you rub on your pants leg lol!
.
Did i make it first?
@@CHAD-RYANYou did. 🏆
yeppers
@@aquachigger I'll never be first, Beau, but I will keep working at being the best! Have to admit though that you've got a great bunch of friends, fans, and followers! Tough competition.
