Find Of A Lifetime? First Hunt Of 2021 Turns Spectacular!

[@propanepilgrim1389]

I think someone in the 1700's, was being chased and shot at. The last musket ball, with the key chain was where the chase ended. There's probably a long decomposed body, right around there

[@CarpathianCZ]

Hey MD24, this key is probably from Baroque era. Certainly not roman, as roman keys were extremely primitive and often in a form of a ring. Baroque home decorations and items tried to "imitate" roman and greek styles, but often overused decorations, such as on this key - the whole body is covered in floral or seashell motives. But it is a very beautiful piece. I mostly find iron keys from this era and they are very corroded. This is a nice specimen. It maybe looks like brass? Or is it bronze?

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hello Carpathian, thank you for the comment. The key seems to be made of copper. Not all Roman keys are primitive and/or shaped like a ring, as shown in this example: finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/140371# Have a great evening.

[@ProspektorCZ]

@@MetalDetecting24 Hi! The key looks like a modern Korkenzieher. How big it is? Have you tried to open it? Try pictures here: www.google.com/search?q=Schl%C3%BCssel+Korkenzieher

Thank you Andy, I'm glad you liked it. Have a great evening.

What a fabulous little key.

[@MegaBMWGS]

Was ein schönes Kreuz. Der Fund Zusammenhang ist interessant. Viele Musketen Kugeln, die Schnalle 1700 und das Medaillon lässt weitere Funde erwarten. Des Weiteren noch mehr Bleireste, sieht nicht nach Jagd geschehen aus sondern an kleinere kriegerische Geschehnisse wie ich meine. Herzlichen Dank für dieses schöne Video und den behutsamen Umgang mit Natur und Tier. Liebe Grüße Andy aus BW

[@marydegenkolb9603]

Dear friend. Right after Covid hit, my computer died. I have now had it fixed and am able to catch up almost 6 months of videos of yours. Glad to see Father, Serious Lion and Happy Hamster. And that your leg is finally healed well enough. I will finish binge watching your videos. Many best wishes for a New Year.

[@MetalDetecting24]

Dear Mary, I'm so happy to see you here :). I was afraid something bad might have happened. I'm glad to hear, it was "just" the computer. I wish you a good time while watching all the videos. I will add a new one in ~20 minutes... Have a great day!

Hello John, thank you very much! :) Have a great day.

[@MetalDetectingSCAdventure]

Nice finds !! love the key , awesome video !!!

[@davidkozderka2171]

Hi MD 24, I think all the artifacts are from about the same period. Already the findings of musket balls suggested good hunting. I don't know what area you were looking for, but if there was a military post, or a battle, (looking in books or on the net?), Why are there no coins ??? Maybe they're all in the locker and you found, just the key to it. Great search. Good luck and especially health in the new year. Czech Republic David

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hello David, I looked up this area on the internet but couldn't find anything that suggests that something like a battle took place there. I also checked some older maps, but again, there is nothing special about this place. So it will remain a mystery for now. Thank you for the comment, have a great evening & a Happy New Year!

[@ncgruntdiggers]

The key is awesome!!! Great find!!!

[@MetalDetecting24]

Thank you Paul! Have a great day.

[@happygardener28]

The key is not Roman; rather at a guess, because of the swirls in the design, late 1600 to mid 1700 for a small clothing chest? or perhaps a spice chest?

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hello, I don't know if you read the description below this video... I think that the key is rather some sort of a "brooch". Have a great evening & thanks for watching!

[@pacificnorthwestdiggers4205]

I agree with Detuk. My first thought was it wasn't a gate, or door, key!! Your' hand seems to be doing a lot better!! Encouraging to see!! My knee is getting a little better also. In fact, I may try metal detecting tomorrow......

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hello Mr. Beepers, I'm glad to read good news about your knee. I wish you all the best, should you go out detecting! If there is a problem, maybe you could try to keep one leg stretched out and just bend the other one. That's what I did when I had my injury and it worked fine. Have a great day.

[@colombecouture7974]

You have a good beginning of this year. Very happy for you.

New subscriber and really enjoy coming along for your hunts. I've been detecting seriously for about a year now and, for me, the thrill of finding and holding history in my hands surpasses any other hobby I have by far. I am in the Southern part of the USA and am addicted to metal detecting and plan and scheme to get out to different permissions as much as possible. Thanks for posting these incredible hunts!

[@duckshaker]

@ 4:06 Did you paint the end of your brush orange? I do that to the small chip brushes I use to clean mushrooms in the woods!

[@claudiastephan681]

Wieder ein sehr schönes Video von dir. Ich frage mich allerdings immer wieder warum du keine Schaufel bei dir hast !? Das würde doch das Graben um einiges erleichtern. Es gibt mittlerweile kleine Schaufeln die man wunderbar zusammen klappen kann und gut in einem Rucksack transportieren kann.

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hallo & vielen Dank. Ich finde meine Werkzeug-Kombination eigentlich optimal (für das Gelände und die Bedingungen). Es ist zudem (meiner Meinung nach) sicherer die Erdschicht stufenweise abzutragen, als die Schaufel in dieselbe Tiefe zu stechen (zumal sich im Boden viele Wurzeln und Steine befinden, die ein solches Vorgehen erschweren würden). Es gibt natürlich Gebiete, wo ich mir eine Schaufel wünschen würde, dieses gehört aber nicht dazu. Viele Grüße.

[@claudiastephan681]

@@MetalDetecting24 Lieben Dank für die Antwort. Macht Sinn und Hauptsache du kannst damit gut arbeiten! Wir sind nur die Zuschauer, die manchmal meinen es besser zu wissen 😉. Deine Videos und die Art wie Du mit Tier und Natur umgehst finde ich toll. Weiter so. Alles Liebe und Gute

[@robertschweppenhauser9891]

Looks like some sort of battle field ....lots of buck and ball lying around the place.

[@recap5172]

You could search the british museum " portable antiquities scheme" to find a match. Could it be a casket key or even a clock winding key? Whatever it is it's nice.

[@MetalDetecting24]

Thank you I looked it up, before I posted this video (see description below the video and the link). I haven't seen all keys, but after page XX I stopped looking because I didn't had the impression that I'm going to find the "same" key. Have a great day.

que dicha hasta que al fin uno que me gusta sin hablar y centrado en el objetivo sin perder el tiempo ,excelente

[@Full_Metal_Digger]

Very nice finds once again MD24! The key is quite the mystery my friend. My thoughts are the key was meant to be seen as it is very ornate and not just functional. Perhaps worn by a priest as part of his religious rituals but the iron chain is throwing me off. I think a priest would have silver or gold chain instead of iron. Best wishes for the new year and happy digging! Dave.

[@pauluk6376]

HI MR MD24,what a fantastic first hunt of the year my friend,once you found that pendent i thought it cant get any better,but that key is beautiful,like you,i know little about keys,but it looks very similar to roman keys ive seen in relics books i have,it would great if you could do a follow up video on the key when you find out more info on it,i almost forgot about that pretty perfume bottle,great surface find,have a great weekend my friend,stay safe and well.....happy hunting

That key looked so beautiful, very intricate in the design it definitely looks old. What a awesome find. I really enjoy watching these sorts of videos. There's something magical about rediscovering something that someone else used centuries before us. I'm looking forward to seeing more videos of yours. Much love from Queensland, Australia.

[@timh132]

How is your hand doing. Great video

[@perisssss]

In my opinion, the key is between late 1600s and mid 1800s. Possibly from a furniture/clock, rather than a door. If it was from silver, I would say that was a part of a chatelaine, but it is not, so not from a chatelaine. (I like your videos)

[@MetalDetecting24]

Thank you very much for watching and your interesting suggestion. I still believe, that the key has a different purpose... I wish you a great evening.

[@perisssss]

@@MetalDetecting24 Best wishes, look this, I just find it, very similar to yours, maybe the item you found is not a key but a pendant looks like a key "needle-case-key". Maybe also yours opens and perhaps a secret message inside it? rubyandjules.co.uk/sold-antique-silver-chatelaine-key-needle-case---love-pendant-secret-compartment-2117-p.asp

I would be so excited just to find those musketballs, are they Napoleonicwere there troops in your Area?

[@delukxy]

I'm not seeing any "thoughts" or description. Did you post it? The key looks rather more ceremonial rather than a key for a proper safety lock. Perhaps for a book lock? About 1700? Could be up to about 1850 though if it was more for decoration.

[@MetalDetecting24]

My thoughts are always in the description below every video (please take a second look). I also believe, the key wasn't made to open anything... Have a great day!

[@tata011670]

Curious; why is the key such an important/special find?

[@j.borchers266]

Machst du die GB nur über den Sound, oder kann man mit dem WS4 Modul in jedem Programm die GB übers pumpen machen? Ich dachte immer das geht nur im Gold Field Programm bei den Kopfhörern? Und du hast im Video geschrieben, dass diese Einstellungen die einzige Möglichkeit sind um gute Tiefe zu erreichen. Wie meinst du das? Ist der Deus in anderen Programmen nicht tief genug? Wenn ja, das Gefühl habe ich manchmal auch

[@j.borchers266]

Oder hattest du anfangs ein modifiziertes Gold Field Programm benutzt und hast später zu einem gewechselt, welches auf dem Deep Programm basiert?

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hallo, man kann G.B. auch über die Kopfhörer einstellen (wenn ich bei mir "Menü" drücke und die Spule pumpe, ändert sich der Wert). Die Tiefe war (und ist es noch immer) bei mir jahrelang weit von dem entfernt, was ich auf anderen Videos beobachten konnte. Sobald ein Objekt die Tiefe des Pinpointers erreichte, handelte es sich immer um etwas größeres als eine Münze (oder ein Knopf). Seitdem ich das Programm benutze, hat es sich (so mein Eindruck) etwas gebessert. Bin trotzdem der Meinung, dass es sich bei meinen Spulen um Montagsprodukte handelt :).

[@j.borchers266]

@@MetalDetecting24 Super danke, werde ich mal ausprobieren. Und das mit dem Montagsprodukt denke ich bei meiner Spule auch immer 😂 aber vielleicht geht der Deus einfach nicht so tief. Habe auch überlegt zum G2+ oder GM4/6 zu wechseln. Bei diesen Detektoren kann man ja auch noch die NEL Spulen drauf machen, wo alle von schwärmen. Außer beim GM6, da geht das nicht

[@francescalichfieldcity6971]

Tell the happy hamster to tell the serious lion a funny joke to cheer him up. Musket balls with smiles. That's unusual. They must have made up a game to pass the free time to find so many of them. Great key and a cross.. with all the lead trash, would you be tempted to melt it all down and make a special hunters ring for yourself or is it not worth the effort? Great 2021 start. X

[@MetalDetecting24]

Hello Francesca, that's a great idea :). If the serious lion keeps acting like this, he might get sick. But on the other hand, if he takes it that serious and finds items like this, maybe he should stay like that :). I don't think melting lead especially for a ring would be healthy... I'm handling way too much lead during my hunts and later at home, when I select my finds and take pictures. I believe, the best way is to just place it in a sealed box and let it there :). Thank you so much for watching and your comment! Have a great day.
