Thanks for sharing. It matters to those of us who can’t get to where you all go. 😊

[@SheepDogActual]

Great job. I like the format. I bought a coin magnifier on Amazon for 45 bucks. It has helped me identify things on more than just coins. That might have helped with the fancy suspender clip. Great job. Thanks for the adventure.

[@jamesprentice5503]

Nice intro and very true to the rough times they lived,and you share thru finds!

[@relicrat]

Great finds guys. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@detectingpa8968]

Thanks!

[@craziedigging4590]

Congrats on all your finds. Great couple of Hunts there. Love the Suspender Pieces and Badge. Congrats on the Lock also. Take Care.

[@DroppedandForgotten]

How awesome it is...when you can pull a nice relic or coin from the dirt that has been swung over and hunted many times. Fantastic job on sniffing the war nickel out.

[@detectingpa8968]

We give the Deus 2 most of the credit.

Everyone pants must of been falling down lol. Great hunt guys keep up the good work

I would have liked to be the supplier of them in that area. Gold mine! lol

[@granddad-mv5ef]

The good thing about hunting next to a river or good-sized creek is the potential for human habitation and activity. The downside is much of the remains could be deeply buried or worse, washed away. All of those suspender clips reinforced my impression that you rarely see the same one twice.

[@mona2046]

Shawn, your story telling gives me chills, thank you 💖 Amazing relics, Jerry, I love suspender clips. Those relics really do tell a story. A soldier must have been there, and it definitely seems like they were poor. Thank you, Jerry 💖you guys rock my world every week!!!!!!! Congratulations on the war nickel!!!

Hey Shawn & Jerry! Love the suspender clips! The 1911 Badge, Pottsville, PA is where Yuengling is made. Totally worth a trip to check out the brewery there. Keep up the amazing footage!

If there was a store maybe someone was repairing clothing with all the suspenders clips and a thimble you found.

[@juliegriffin7609]

That's a lot of suspender clasps. Maybe there was a seamstress that made or repaired clothes. Who knoelws. I just hope it wasn't just one poor soul losing his. 💖💯

[@dirtdiggindawg310]

Hey Jerry it's just speculation but perhaps one of two things ... maybe you have found where these folks overalls were hanging on thier cloths lines ... or maybe those folks workin that furnace had the notion to take a dip in the river after a hard day's work . Either way man ty for the adventure!!

[@LeoBower-p2c]

Nice button

[@tomnickell1276]

Since you keep finding those suspender clips, I understand there is a new book out on suspender clips. Nice hunt, maybe that old soldier left his belt plate there for you.

[@sevenskiryan]

Schuylkill is pronounced "skook-ill" ...as it was named by the natives. Today the word is most often heard at a Delco Wawa followed by the phrase "Go Birds!"

[@richardbeee]

They could have made good money, unfortunately they probably spent it all on buckles. 😊 Beautiful area.

Watching now guys... 💖💖

[@douglaskerr6813]

Now I know you guys are out west Pennsylvania we pronounce it Schuyl - kill there's a river and a major roadway btw I'm from Philadelphia

[@detectingpa8968]

You should have heard us out in the woods trying to pronounce it before we filmed. 😂😂

[@LeoBower-p2c]

Never found one i hope someday

[@alandufresne1975]

Jerry there is also a military button with a D for Dragoons.

Shawn, my vote is.....shoe buckle

[@stephaniecarlson525]

What about some kind of clothes line? Where they would hang clothes to dry?

[@barbaragravely920]

i would say buckle date looks to be 1850.

[@jim-do5pt]

What was the mint mark and date on that War Nickel?

[@barbaragravely920]

Yes back then there were alot of men working that would make sense why all those suspenders would be there. They also had blacksmiths to and wars to where lots of guys were shot or hit with sharp objects.those other harmonicas could also be from man wearing those bent metal on there boots i had a pair with them on it in the 70s i was a boot gal do to farming and workin on others farming to help them out with cows horses sheep and tractor works . sum times chickens to .

[@LeoBower-p2c]

I hope silver

[@danielward6562]

Maybe they switched to overalls and gave up on suspenders.

I can assure you that we aren’t detecting protected sites.

@@detectingpa8968 yea. I figured. You’re pretty solid in ur videos. Others should watch and learn from em. I think that too mostly. Problem now. People register sites from 60s and land resells oer and oer and it gets lost in the shuffle. Them Maryland boys were on someone’s private land with permission. Owner didn’t even know bout ole GAR campsite on land and got some trouble after them boys dug. Good group boys too. They ain’t never hurt anything in purpose.
