I like your voice. It's a very calming voice, you're not screaming or yelling into the mic about what you found. You are mellow and very cool about your finds and I am impressed with your professional demeanor. Keep up the good work, you're doing just fine.
You sir are a cross between Mr. Rogers and Steve from Blue's Clues, you have the most soothing voice for your video. We love watching, keep up the great work.
I've watched your videos for several years because I find them so fascinating and enjoyable. But what really catches my attention is your skill at recording the scenery. Just brilliant
Hi Brad, I'm new to these U-tube things but I like your site. Good video pictures, not jumping around & you seem to enjoy sharing with "us" your finds. Thank you!
That swimming hole and creek are stunning as a background. Tampa is not near any semblance of a place like that. When I watch you I can smell that summer. Thanks for the blessings ☺️
Brad! First of all Thank you for bringing me along with you on you adventures. I am a 57 year young man. My son is 11 because of you, we started metal detected together as a father and son duo, which has brought us super close. Thank you for sharing your passion with my son and I. I look forward each Friday for your new upload. God bless you sir.
Nice! Starting my morning with Iced Coffee & a fresh GMMD in Vermont! To me your most fascinating finds are the ones in your home state. Thanks for the great content.
That Cuban Chain Link ring is definitely silver! Great find…..Leave the nail on the dime👍🏼 Wonderful video again….GL and HH on your next adventure. Blessings send from Ontario, Canada🙏🏼🍀👋🏼🇨🇦
Leave the nail! Richfield Corp. Was bought by ARCO in 1966 so it's likely pre-1966. I must comment on the quality and flow of your video. I see the evolution of your skills. The timing and wonderful angles and visually stimulating choices in shooting are a delight! Great content served well! Crack on!
Oil can lids paper cardboard cans with tin lids!. I remember them back in the 60s. I know they were even before then! 1800s to 1960s Then plastic quart jugs were the thing. I even remember recycled oil that were cheaper than new oil. Was in a white jug with orange writing on it! Don't remember the name now.
Brad, you've chosen a beautiful stream in the woods of Vermont to explore, thanks for sharing with us. The purple Transferware dish fragment commonly dates from the mid-19th century, and very probably is of English origin. The decoration was transferred from a painted design to the still soft, unfired soft paste Potter's material, commonly an ironstone mix or another form of clay based material before firing the object in a kiln. Many times you would find an over-lapping of designs on finished products of that period. Good day, pretty spot, and treasure to bring home.
Old oil cans were all tin, then they went to a sort of waxed paper and foil can with metal top and bottom like what you found. I remember my dad buying oil for the farm up till the late 70's early 80's in paper cans. Then the plastic bottles.
You got it mate . I too recall those containers... back when i was 7-8 yrs old i think it when they started to use only plastic . Ah how times flies eh :)
With the modern stuff buried, and the older stuff is on the surface... that tells me the old stuff is washing down the hill. Yes, I would search the hill side for structures. The pottery is a common pattern found in the early twentieth century; however, that stuff was produced up to WWII, so it can be difficult to date. What a Cool day, all puns intended. Thanks for bringing us along.
When I moved to Vermont 7years ago. I found an old settlement with 2 cellar holes. From the way it looked, looked like no one has ever disturbed it. One day I'll go back with a metal detector.
River hunting is where it’s at we just had a spot turned out to be a old Yacht club coins everywhere! We had 6 silver halves oldest was a seated close to 50 silver coins so far mostly barbers SLQS v nickels Buffalos mercury dimes some Washington’s Indians two barber half’s 3 walkers crazy!!!
I think that latch may have been used on a Victorian picnic basket! It's not a real heavy trunk latch! That ring is going to look good on ur pinky finger! Have a great week Brad!! ❣️💕💙💜❤️
Great hunt! You can soak the dime in CLR and it will slowly loosen the rusted concretion. Scouted some old county parks yesterday for a possible fall hunt and at the second one I found a 14k white gold ring.
When we lived in Key West, we were at the beach, my boyfriend was metal detecting, got a great signal, dug over a foot down, took a while, finally, only to find a grill, somebody buried. Bummer. Thought he had a great treasure
Hi, Brad. It's Fri 11:25pm atm here in NZ, so your video came at the right time. Once again that stream has offered up more amazing treasures.. coins, a watch, hinge etc. The first ring was really delicate looking and the second ring had such a beautiful design. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
The larger silver ring is most likely hand made. You just twist the wire then flatten and the most put a black patina on it by putting in liver of sulfur then buffing the higher spots back to silver.
What a beautiful spot man! The stuff that comes out of these old swimming holes always blows my mind. Loved the video. Sending you and your family the best!
Once again I couldn’t agree more when you pulled the plate fragment out of the river I couldn’t help but wonder if somebody didn’t have a home site close by because of the water access great minds think a like😆😆😆
You know Brad it’s nice, once in a blue moon, to see you doing a modern hunt for (a) change.😂 Yes keep it that way but still cool. Also, your oil can top brought back memories when I was in my teens cutting lawns. I used an old full can of 20W50, with the metal top from the 70s, to run a dying lawn mower. It’s motor burned through 30 weight like crazy but 20w50 slow the burn rate and I got the last penny out of that mower. Watching you channel since you had 10,000 subs or less. Anyhow, thank you for your interesting coin hunt videos. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😄
I see that some folks are familiar with some of the history of Richfield Oil. But I'd never heard of it, so I decided, just for giggles, to do a little bit more research, and came up with this bio: • The Richfield Oil Corporation was founded in 1905 and went into receivership in 1931 as a result of the Great Depression. • Consolidated Oil Corp bought Richfield's eastern United States operations in 1936. (Those gas stations would later be rebranded as Sinclair stations in 1943) • Cities Service Company (now known as Citgo) acquired the majority of the stock and brought the company out of receivership in 1936. • Consolidated Oil Corp (now Sinclair) and Rio Grande Oil (controlled by Consolidated Oil Corp) and Cities Service Company (now Citgo) agreed to a merger between Richfield Oil and Rio Grande shortly after. • On February 23, 1942, the Imperial Japanese Army attacked the Richfield Oil tanks in the Ellwood oil field, near Santa Barbara, California. This was the first attack on continental America during the war. • Richfield Oil sponsored the Autopia attraction at Disneyland from 1955 to 1970. • The company merged with Atlantic Refining to form Atlantic Richfield Corp, later known as ARCO, in 1966. • After selling Atlantic Refining to Sonoco, ARCO was purchased by BP in 2000.
Perfect way to start my Friday! Coffee and Green Mountain Metal Detecting adventure! Great finds! I love finding those pieces of glassware with designs 👍🏼 see ya next week!!!

And he's easy on the eyes.
Another fun hunt brother. The print on the old dish is beautiful.
I LOVE that opening riff!!!🎸🎸
that nail on the dime is what makes the dime a collectors coin, for me anyway. to cool, brad!!
I've watched your videos for several years because I find them so fascinating and enjoyable. But what really catches my attention is your skill at recording the scenery. Just brilliant

Great to watch your search. The pottery: Purple transfer printed pottery possibly staffordshire 19 Century
Nice! Starting my morning with Iced Coffee & a fresh GMMD in Vermont!
To me your most fascinating finds are the ones in your home state. Thanks for the great content.
Braided rings like that in copper or silver were enormously popular in the 1970's. I still have my copper braided ring.
Thank You enjoy so much.
Love the new intro music
That Cuban Chain Link ring is definitely silver! Great find…..Leave the nail on the dime👍🏼 Wonderful video again….GL and HH on your next adventure. Blessings send from Ontario, Canada🙏🏼🍀👋🏼🇨🇦

More accurately Richfield Oil merged with Atlantic Refining in 1966 to form Atlantic Richfield, which a few years later changed its name to ARCO.
Is that a nail or an alligator clip...the type they used for neck ties (only with a smaller lapel clip)
What a beautiful place. I can see why people wanted to picnic there.
Once again the heat didn't stop you from delivering a great video. Beautiful area. Thanks for sharing.
I believe that chest latch is to the DeGrau treasure chest or maybe the next journey!
Big like 👍 23 my friend! Excellent video and thank you so much for sharing!
Oil can lids paper cardboard cans with tin lids!. I remember them back in the 60s. I know they were even before then! 1800s to 1960s Then plastic quart jugs were the thing.

Awesome Video!!😎👍
Leave the nail! That's way cool as it is. Awesome video as always
I actually owned that same style small silver ring in the late 70's. It's so pretty up there!
Me too! Recognized it right away!
You always have great music

Nailed it
You got it mate . I too recall those containers... back when i was 7-8 yrs old i think it when they started to use only plastic . Ah how times flies eh :)
STAY AWAY FROM THE CANS!
Richfield was merged into Atlantic Richfield (later ARCO) in 1966, so this predates that. From the style of the writing I'd say it's post-WW2.
With the modern stuff buried, and the older stuff is on the surface... that tells me the old stuff is washing down the hill. Yes, I would search the hill side for structures.
The pottery is a common pattern found in the early twentieth century; however, that stuff was produced up to WWII, so it can be difficult to date. What a Cool day, all puns intended. Thanks for bringing us along.
Very cool change in pace. And the silver ring is killer !
Brad great day for you young man outdoors awesome fines 👍
Nice day Brad. 2 nice rings. I really like that last ring...
Always enjoy your videos Brad, messaging you on a Friday night from Australia
Cool dig

Thanks Brad for another great start to the weekend! Love your videos brother. Top notch filming as always.✌️
Nice !! Thanks for the video !!
The small silver ring was popular in the early 80's I believe the mark was a 7 for the size.
Sweet Digs in one of Vermont's hidden treasures.
They called them friendship rings didn't they?
@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586 yes they did!
Richfield Oil Corp. started up in the early 1900s and merged with Atlantic Oil in the 1960s becoming the Atlantic Richfield Oil Co.
Great video today. Keep it up 😁👍

Great hunt! You can soak the dime in CLR and it will slowly loosen the rusted concretion. Scouted some old county parks yesterday for a possible fall hunt and at the second one I found a 14k white gold ring.
A little cider vinegar sitting in the cupboard for generations can help too but I recommend watching it closely.
Great video Brad
I love being able to watch this before getting out of bed on Friday
It's 8:45pm in Australia.
It's 11:17pm Friday here atm in NZ 👋🏽
@@saintsefo4763 yay for NZ. Always ahead of the rest of the world.🙃😊🌹🐝
When we lived in Key West, we were at the beach, my boyfriend was metal detecting, got a great signal, dug over a foot down, took a while, finally, only to find a grill, somebody buried. Bummer. Thought he had a great treasure
Cool finds! Love the rings.

That stripes and starts thing looks like a badge with the pin swivel part going into the recess of the square part
Happy hunting!
My Friday morning wake up video before work. Thank you for sharing your beautiful adventures and bless you.
