Celebrated my first MILLION views with an Excellent Relic Hunt! Bullets and a Bucket Lister Button!

A large yard in Cold Harbor Virginia that had never been hunted as far as I know, produced many bullets (one scarce), a personal WW2 artifact, a Cavalry item I'd never seen, and a Bucket List Civil War button I'm excited to add to my collection! #metaldetecting #relicdigging #civilwar #civilwarrelics #diggingfortreasure #relichunting #relicdigging #virginia #deus #treasurehunting

I appreciate that Joe! And really satisfying to know you get a little kick out of the channel . . .

[@garylee190]

Outstanding hunt, Walker. Thanks for sharing! I'm sure the family appreciated the return of the cannonball & flame pin.

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

Yeah, that was very cool, Will. I remember the man. In the 70s, he would wear his uniform to church on Veteran's Day. It still fit him like a glove.

[@johntalley2023]

Nice pile of lead, loved the brass curry comb piece also.

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

John, that was cool just because I didn't know those existed, and learning about Hotchkiss and his government contracts, etc.

[@benjaminharlow3743]

Congrats on the million Walker, enjoy your videos!

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

I appreciate that Benjamin. But now I'll always be chasing the next big one - one-hit-wonder right now . . .

Thanks Gary - unusually good day of digging!

[@billwyatt2449]

Congrats to your million. Glad to have contributed. Looks like you enjoyed the day. Dragoon Nice In beautiful shape.

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

Thanks Billy. This little 2 acres hasn't produced a lot, but the scarce items are proportionately high. I have found the brass curry comb part, the Eagle D, a ringtail Sharpes, and in a subsequent trip, a .54 Gardner, a Pickett bullet and a CS .69 Belgian. Weird.

[@333Hogwarts]

Ah the elusive Eagle "D" button . Quite a rare find. Next a Eagle " R "or very rare Eagle "V". Most Eagle V's are found in early sights too. Well done Walker ! Congratulation's on your 1 Million views. I will say I watch a lot of relic hunting videos . Yours my friend is the only one that makes me feel the History that you are hunting for. Keep them coming when you can. Thank you God bless you too.

[@rappahannockchurchofchrist331]

That means a ton to me Hogwarts. Especially coming from a guy who knows his buttons.

[@davidolien2828]

I love learning from you. Thank you from Williamsburg

That's flattering David - my digging partner Mudduck lives in Stonehouse.

[@bobgorbenko3741]

Wow... What a great day you had! In my dreams only... I really think that Dragoon button is a super find!

Andrea, I'm honored and appreciative that you watch, and thank you for the congrats! I get that U of Mich comment a bit. Unfortunately it was MIlligan College in Tennessee. The landowner graduated from there as did my oldest daughter. I figured it couldn't hurt!

Awesome hunt brother! I gotta admit, I'm jealous of that sandy soil! This dry, rocky clay in north Mississippi is like concrete right now!

Back atcha , Dewey. I'm no legend, but thank you so much for the congrats. I'm pretty stoked...! And that button was unexpected for sure!

CONGRATS on hitting the million!!!! Cannonball with the flame is WWII Ordinance pin. GREAT HUNT!! Be good, say your prayers, and hug the cat. (You seriously petted and introduced Clarabelle the dog . . . In trouble AGAIN!) 😾

Chars, WHAT?! I was trying to redeem myself. Oh wait, I get it. Nice to the dog, not the cat. Back to the drawing board.

My favorite video was when you tell about that catholic cross you found I'm a little jealous I live in a very die hard catholic family I go to to the Latin mass. If you ever get to go to the KZbin channels Mass of the Ages and Ex Cathedra there is some great music and learning. Thanks as always Walker!

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

I know so little about Catholicism - but I want to check that out! Thanks man. This spot is less than a mile from where I found that crucifix you're talking about!

Flaming bomb pin is for Ordnance. My father was 140th Ordnance, Heavy Maintenance Company in WWII.

Thanks Christopher, and salute to your Ordnance dad!

[@Swamp-Fox]

Congrats on the million views as well as the WWII insignia pin, Eagle Dragoon button, brass toothed curry comb piece, & ringtail sharps bullet! Hope you have a great 4th of July. BTW, how did the event for Gavin go? I hope it was a huge success and that he is doing well. I continue to pray for him.

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

Thanks Swamp - it was a good day of digging! Thanks for praying for Gavin. He is currently cancer free. It was the most hectic and crazy 4 hours of my year, but wildly successful. We had just over 200 motorcycles and a hundred classic cars make an appearance. A hair over 900 people in attendance, and in those 4 hours, we raised over $40,000 so I'd say that thing went right over the centerfield wall.

[@thurin84]

congrats on the million views walker! well deserved. my most watched video has only 4000 views. but i realize my video subjects are really niche lol. im not going to make any comments about the big head vs little head and how deep they can go lol. though its taking all my willpower not to lol. 15:34 the us army ordnance corp uses a flaming grenade insignia, that looks more like ww1 than ww2. maybe it belonged to that mans father. well that was a good day. give clarabelle a pat from me. she looks like a good doggo.

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

Clarabelle says hello, and I appreciate the insight on the insignia. Def out of my wheelhouse. Oh . . . and I applaud your willpower. Right decision!

Love your videos my friend . Question do you ever sell some of your finds , like bullets ? Let me know THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.......

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

Frank, I have only sold a relic once and still don't feel good about it. But a prairie dog hunt in Montana was a bucket list trip for my dad. Not sure where he was, but he had a ball. If you're just looking for a couple of genuine civil war bullets, I got you. Send me your address.

[@orome_best_valar8305]

Happy 4th, Walker. All those 69's and the eagle D, was this an 1862 site?

[@thebattlefieldwalker2841]

Yeah, being Cold Harbor, could be '62 and '64 items mixed together. (Carbines and .69s) but I think those items you mentioned are indeed from the battle of Gaines Mill. ('62)
