Finding what was lost fighting durning the Civil War | Digging in Virginia 54

We head out to Digging in Virginia, Number 54, for an amazing event. This event takes us to the Battle of Freeman’s Ford. This is an artillery battle that took place during the American Civil War and contained troops from Texas to New York. As always, Digging in Virginia is one of our favorite events and I hope you enjoy this episode and consider following for more.

I saw that "Cavalry" bullet ... goo find.

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

I always love to see you guys pull Civil War artifacts, Matt! Congrats to Ross on that gorgeous plate. And the capped bust half dime is awesome! The complete Parrott shell is too cool!❤

[@theshankisintact]

Awesome video bro. ❤ I too picked up at least 20 different pieces of trash in pre dug holes some of which had the trash sitting right on the surface.

[@markkus1134]

Man that 6” coil goes deep!!!😁 Cool box turtle shell

Nice work..mate...🇮🇩⚒️⛏️🌺👍👍👍

Tagging myself 19:39 with my mouth full of food haha

[@GoneDiggin]

Haha

[@dirtclodmetaldetecting]

Wow! What awesome finds!

[@jerrydineen2827]

I agree with your rant Matt. I actually have a digging buddy that hardly ever takes his trash with him and if we're in a woods he doesn't fill in his holes!

[@benjaminharlow3743]

Leaving holes open & trash would be the end for that hunting buddy!

[@jerrydineen2827]

@@benjaminharlow3743 we haven't hunted together in about three years now

[@benjaminharlow3743]

@@jerrydineen2827 lve come across a few of those guys, bad for the hobby, people that leave trash & open holes are trash themselves!

[@granvillewooster7673]

Great finds 👍👍

[@mwdjr3158]

This is fantastic! Congrats

[@tomarmstrong5881]

Matt great video, I had a blast at the hunt though I have to agree with the rant I really got tired of cleaning out trash from holes, but one did produce a Schenkl fuze that they didn’t bother to dig out😂

[@GoneDiggin]

Wow!!! We that’s cool

[@dsddownsouthdiggers1323]

Awesome finds! Wish we had spot like that in Oklahoma.

[@treasurehuntingscotlandmud9340]

some nice finds enjoyed the video

[@show-metreasure3438]

Amazing finds!!!

[@BarberBobDetecting]

Great video, tremendous finds.

[@RelicsRings]

Good video, good seeing you at DIV

[@GoneDiggin]

Great seeing you too!

[@ohioturkeyhunter]

I too found a BUNCH of targets(trash) left in holes!!! Lazines!!! More than any other DIV I’ve been too!! 🤬 On a good note, the vast majority of holes were filled in!!

[@braddocksgarage]

Man, every other hole I walked over had trash in it. Absolutely deplorable. But I think you hit the nail on the head as far as finding relics goes. I stayed on the front half of the property and found some things but if I had moved around more like into the woods or back fields, I would have found more. I'll know better next time! Great video man! I recently got a spot in Pburg that I might have to hit you up on.

[@GoneDiggin]

Let’s go!!

[@mandograssable]

I make beautiful jewelry boxes out of those tortoise shells when I find the bottom and top of them. The little top lid on the bottom opens when you put a little hinge on it and line the inside with felt.

[@GoneDiggin]

I’ll save you some. Found 5 or more this season

[@mandograssable]

@@GoneDiggin Great! I will take them. If you want to hunt the battle of Port Republic, I own battlefield property here and can take you on a hunt.

[@JusDirtfishin]

Man that looks like fun with a lot of walking and work at the same time. My little 600 wouldn’t do very good out there it looks like. Enjoyed it Matt

[@GoneDiggin]

It’s a blast! Maybe one day I can drag you out!

[@JusDirtfishin]

Maybe one day. That would be a great time

[@bells1054]

Great hunt!! Thank you for sharing Matt. You all saved some fabulous history!!

[@joemiller8965]

Awesome video and great relics! Thanks for sharing Matt! I’d love to go on one of those hunts one day. That would be awesome! And those people who are leaving trash in their holes are pieces of trash themselves and shouldn’t be allowed back! Who in the hell would do that kinda crap!!!

[@jlspl150]

Great intro 😮

[@GoneDiggin]

Thanks Yo! Trying to be better every video

[@benjaminharlow3743]

.Love the Breastplate & bust half dime, you guys did good , congrats!

[@brokenarrowoutdoors2467]

Why are all you guys using metal detectors from 1984?

[@RelicsRings]

Those are $4,000 pulse induction machines.

[@GoneDiggin]

Cause 1984 is my favorite year
