    Well...I just found a "thing"...
    Classic! Welcome to my world. Brad, here is one of the things I appreciate most about watching your adventures. You take just as much pleasure in finding simple, ordinary items as you do in finding other items such as coins. There are other detectorists who say it's a waste of their time to dig iron and common items. You clearly take pleasure in finding simple items that tell the story of who owned them and how they were used. This simplicity is refreshing and gives others of us hope that what we might find is interesting too from an historical standpoint. Thank you for allowing us all to join you on your adventures and for the inspiration that provides!

    Hi Brad, the shard of glazed earthenware looks to be of English origin, much like a swirl decorated Pearlware or decorated Mochaware, both typical for the time period of the Homestead .. A great day in the mountains of Vermont, thanks for sharing.

  • @SamC1776
    @SamC1776 3 года назад +10

    Great haul! The design of the button you found reminds me of a particularly rare facet of colonial jewelry called ‘Stuart Crystal’. They’re exceptionally rare and have ties to the British monarchy from the late 1600s. Typically the backing is made out of silver, and on the inside sometimes you’ll find a gold inlay pattern. Not sure that’s what you have, but they definitely look pretty similar.

    The glass button looks Spanish in origin to me. Also by the color of glass its possible that it's made of Libyan Desert Glass. It's been an export of the region for thousands of years for use as gemstones. It's worth having a geologist knowledgeable in that specific material take a look at. If it is Desert Glass, it could be quite valuable. Relatively speaking...

    I'm getting my first metal detector this spring. I'm getting a few magnets and Im going to magnet fish the river that the rifle range for Camp Grant that was built for WW1 in 1914. It was used to train all the medics in WW2. There was also a prison of war camp there and they trained pilots there in WW1. Now it a Air Port but the rifle range is still there and the artillery range. There is no metal detecting allowed because of the unexploded ordnance still on the ground. The EOD come for 2 months a year to clear them. We get to listen when they blow up all the explosives. It's kind of a big deal. They can't stop me from magnet fishing at the range and down stream. I will post the videos when I do it. Have fun detecting. I can't wait to join the metal detecting community. Have a great day and I hope you are doing well with your microphone's.
