A very interesting video 👍

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank you @Sweetlife___ ! We had a great time! Thank you for watching!

[@mandybrown7758]

Fun fun Happy Hunting

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank you! We had such a great time, glad others are enjoying it as well!

[@mog-cz6hb]

Such a nice spot Good job guys!

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Much appreciated MOG! We try our best! Thank you!

[@docneuro4500]

Beautiful location with an interesting history. I also enjoy thinking about what the world was like when a find was dropped and all that has transpired since. The history associated with a find often equals the find itself. A love of history is what first attracted me to this hobby.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

That's about the best way to describe it friend! Thank you! Just makes you really think about things!

[@topuser7777]

Good job 💙

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank you! 😊

That was such a beauuuutiful place in the 1800s, wow. Looks far out there!

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Absolutely! Be extra nice if the old home was still there!

[@treasuretom13]

Great hunt! Mystery Item farm piece keyhole thing looks like a plow blade

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank ye! Always some mysteries on this channel. That keyhole thing or the ornate mystery the roman found?

[@jayharper2252]

It's still a beautiful place. I could only imagine how nice and beautiful it was 125 years ago . Great finds

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thanks Jay! It would have been amazing to walk through that old house if it were still standing! The history of Joseph Chancellor Kendall, and Owen Duffy Hill are pretty interesting! I also believe that Joseph fought in the war of 1812! -Chad

[@relicrat]

Awesome finds. Looks familiar. T post thingy at nine minutes. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank ye! It was a great diggin day, aside from the rapid weather change

[@stevedurham3270]

Great spot would like to hunt in W.V. with you guys sometime

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Sounds good! If you find yourself in the area, send us an email

[@davidlee6773]

Great video guys keep on digging👍

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank ye! Same back at ya. I hope all is well with you

[@ThatRomanDude]

Had an excellent time with you guys, as always!!!!

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Senate's Populusque Romanus! Always great seeing you! Hope to get back with ye soon sir. That nokta ain't gonna detect itself. I have your headphones by the way.

[@sweetdiggz]

Very pretty location, loved the old pictures of the house and farm. The spur bracket was really cool. Another great video!

[@raylynngiroux5525]

I bought the Nokta Simplex+ 2yrs ago and it's a great machine for the beginner. Then I bought a Nokta Legend last year. I love both machines for their simplicity and efficiency. Great hunt guys

[@bluecreekdetectors]

That's cool! Our special guest "The Roman" was breaking in his new simplex+ ! They do pretty well! Our friend on another channel recently got herself a legend and she loves it @sweetdiggz ! Isaac and I currently use XP deus 1 and 2, and those machines keep up pretty well! Thank you for watching! Hope to hear from you again! -Chad

[@raylynngiroux5525]

@@bluecreekdetectors I'll definitely continue watching your channel. Yes I did see that @sweetdiggz got a Legend 👍😁. I watch a lot of detecting channels. Thinking of starting my own here in Vermont

[@thegallowsdetectorists666]

Hi guys , looks like a good bit of land some interesting stuff popping up i don't know what the ornate mystery object is bit the sour bracket is a great little find shame it's not complete , good video once more and good history info to hope all is good with you ATB Rob 👍

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thanks Rob. Definitely a shame it isn't complete but our guest was super happy to find something ornate so we have that success at least

[@failsafe2275]

Mystery item #3 reminds me of an old metal fence post.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Sounds about right. Those holes for where the barbed wire goes through perhaps

[@failsafe2275]

No, they would be used to readjust the height.@@bluecreekdetectors

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

Love the bits of history you guys to at the beginning its always a nice touch. Congrats to Chad on the Barber and Isaac on the "V" nickel and the IHP. Always love that drone footage, we need to get one of those, great video as always guys! Keep up the great work!

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thanks MMMD! I highly recommend a Mavik Mini 2 "fly more kit" it is great quality. It really adds some 'feels' to the video in my opinion. I hope yall are safe up there in New England with all the snow! It is almost undetectable down here in WV right now. Will have to wait a few weeks I think.

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

@@bluecreekdetectors we are covered in snow for sure but the winter storms cause some serious erosion at the beaches and providing a unique opportunity to treasure hunters. You wouldn’t believe me if I told you what we got off the beaches this past weekend. I will show you in the weeks to come, some awesome episodes coming. I’m definitely gonna look into that drone you recommended, thanks!

[@JusDirtfishin]

Man I say that exact same thing. I often wonder on how and where it came from. And how long has it been laying there waffle me to walk over it. Hopefully you all didn’t get to much snow.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Makes you really think about things though, all the world's events that occurred in the world while that item laid there till a person picked it up! Thanks for watching, if you all get a chance go check out our buddies channel, Jus Dirt Fishin!

[@JusDirtfishin]

Thanks buddy. Yea it does. I always I wish the relics could talk.

[@SteveSimpson-nl9cl]

Very nice hunt. I watched it on the Muskrats page and came here to comment. I call tell a good bit of research went into this hunt. Well done.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Yes sir, took a bit of searching. I finally tracked down the location by noticing the shadows and sun in the old farm picture in conjunction with an 1895 map to pinpoint the location. Thanks for commenting Steve. I hope we can meet up and detect soon!

[@SteveSimpson-nl9cl]

@@bluecreekdetectors anytime.

[@AppalachianHistoryDetectives]

Mystery Item #3 is from a Metal T Post. They break off easily when pulled out of the ground. Likely a fence in that area at one time...

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Thank ye. I think it was a horse pasture in the early 1900s. Our guest star wanted to know

[@DetectDigSmile]

What drone are you using in the video? Thanks for sharing.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Mavik Mini 2, "fly more kit", 4k30fps and very affordable. And thank you for watchin!

[@riddlesrelics1278]

New subscriber. I love how you tell a story of the history prior to finding the goods

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Much appreciated! Will sub back! We absolutely love finding the history behind these items if possible! Glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching!-Chad

[@GeorgeElliott-xp4mh]

Where are you guys located

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Charleston, WV USA

[@GeorgeElliott-xp4mh]

@@bluecreekdetectors think I could join you guys on a hunt. I don't even care if I freeze my butt off lol

[@christianhess7136]

Do you metal detect near elkview wv

[@bluecreekdetectors]

We do indeed. Elkview and elk river communities in general have a very interesting past that isn't well known. We have some items to put in the elk communities museum soon as well

[@christianhess7136]

I live in pinch and have been metal detecting in my family members and neighbors yards with a garrett at pro for about 3 years

[@bluecreekdetectors]

@christianhess7136 nice detector. Chad used to use a garret at max. Find anything good over there??

[@christianhess7136]

@bluecreekdetectors not really I went metal detecting in my great aunts 1906 yard in Western Virginia and found a 1912 wheat penny I also found a 1942 merc and a 1952 Roosevelt dime in her front yard and a ww2 navy Air crew sterling silver medal in her back yard

[@bluecreekdetectors]

@christianhess7136 you are diggin the right targets for sure. Good job!

[@brandonriffe1375]

Mystery #4 looks like the screen that goes in the end of a water spigot

[@bluecreekdetectors]

That's kind of what we were thinking, but we couldn't really tell. Gotta love a good smashed mystery item! 😅😆 it was really close to the road.

[@shanehulburt5661]

Nice hunt just not sure everything is on the up and up with you guys hoping you prove me wrong, just seemed a little staged.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Check out our other stuff, this one didn't have many "good" finds. If you're talking about our charisma, we have a good time. Simple as that.

[@bluecreekdetectors]

Oohhhhh maybe you are talking about staged finds?? Noooooo all legit here. XP Deus detectors really pull the items out. I just don't like live digs because I personally don't even like watching people dig. Therefore I rarely film live digs. We can do more of that if that is what you would like to see.
