[@vanessabouhfadi3032]

Nice to hear someone appreciating that sales are beautiful. Thanks

[@markreetz1001]

The item at 11:25 I think is part of a hinge.

[@historyhamm]

Thanks for the reminder about snakes. I’ve not seen one yet this year. Usually on my property are black snakes and an occasional Copperhead. I’ve never seen a rattler in the wild. Cool finds. My favorite is the big penny 😎 👍

[@jim-do5pt]

That winder-kinda thing is/was a "Cockeye" - A turn down for buggy surrey, what helped anchor down the canvas of the vehicle. Most always decorative too, like yours!

[@maxsands3861]

Good eye Nugget, the most dangerous ones are the ones that don't rattle to warn you in time. Glad you saw it first. I bet Daisy would have freaked out. Stay safe young man.

[@nuggetnoggin]

That's true, it didn't warn me either. I could of stepped right on it. Thanks for watching! Daisy would of really liked seeing it

[@patty4091]

Nice finds, even the critters! I’m glad you are alert, unusual for the snake not to notice you. I’ve ran into two when I was a kid, they were alert, and let me know it! I lit out of there as fast as I could.

[@debbiewilsomn4314]

The little piece with the ball tip looks to be the tip off of a bolo tie.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thanks for letting me know

[@diannmcdonald4949]

Wow, what an adventure! Snakes turtles and treasures. I especially like the cockeye or clock winder and the decorated knob. Those pieces speak to me with the beautiful detailed designs. Please continue to be watchful when out on your own in the woods. 😊🇨🇦

[@nuggetnoggin]

Will do! Thank you for watching!

[@darlatidwell6255]

That large cent was a very nice find. 👍

[@austinbradley3411]

Awesome video as always. I always come across pigs in the woods.got chased up a tree one time had to wait for 20 minutes til they left the area.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Really ? i have never came across any wild hogs yet but i know they are out there. Thanks for watching

[@johnc5450]

I just started detecting and have been watching for a while. Should I dig every signal? I’m thinking it might help me learn my detector and what it’s identifying. I also want to get better understanding of how it works but at the same time trying to make every hole count. P.S. I say hide a verse, this is an awesome platform to “fish”!

[@nuggetnoggin]

Digging every signal will help you learn your Detectors target ID and tones faster . I recommend it, if you cherry pick, you’re gonna miss flat buttons in Old Relics.

[@JustPlainSteve5372]

WOW, right off the bat You're in the Money!!!

[@KevinLuby-s1i]

Props to you Michael for your chill reaction to walking up on the rattler. Most folks have the "see snake, kill snake" attitude. They can certainly be appreciated for their beauty if admired from a few feet away. You are killing me with that 1817 large cent though. I think I'd pass out if I ever found something like that. I'm happy as a clam to find anything as old as a wheaty or war nickel.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thank you! I wouldn’t kill the rattlesnake since I’m in his home exploring around. Was great to view it from a distance. The large cent was in amazing shape too! I’m still excited about it

A large cent is still on my bucket list. Probably because anyone that swung a coil over one would definitely dig it.

[@juliealbert9222]

That sure was a pretty Snattle Rake 😆

So true! Thanks for watching

Didn't you and your friends encounter western diamond backs in Texas about 3 yrs. ago Stay Safe

[@nuggetnoggin]

We did, but at this site we knew they were going to be there. Todd took us there and said he finds them all the time. That's little different because it's in texas haha. I should of said, " while metal detecting my part of the states, NC, SC, VA ,GA, TN area

[@maryashley2947]

My husband and I would love to go metal detecting one day with you!! So fun! Love history

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thank you! More videos on the way

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Congrats on the old largie, Michael. Nice finds from both spots, I like the clock winder. Timber rattler, wow! I'm glad you spotted it in time!❤

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thank you! I enjoy finding large cents. Yeah, i'm glad i was looking down at that moment because some times i look ahead

[@charlieschemmel122]

Great relics cool large cent thanks for sharing!!!!!

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thanks for watching!

[@stevenallegretto1746]

That small piece looks like it may be a bolo tie tip, just a guess...love your show.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Could be. Thanks for watching!

[@ArgentAppeal]

I always enjoy your videos, but this one seems like you found more than buttons and buckles....snake and turtle. That is awesome and so glad you saw it first. Your enthusiasm is very apparent for metal detecting and you have a great kind personality along with it. Very good channel for all, family friendly also. God Bless you Nugget.

[@timsparamormalreactions]

Indiana here, it's my first video that I've seen. I'll have to watch more. Like your channel

[@nuggetnoggin]

Awesome! So glad you've found the channel. I have a few dozen more videos I need to post in the coming months.

[@marilynpowell6881]

I think that small pointed brass conical thing is called a chape for the end of a strip of leather or chord. Thanks xx

[@barbaraverdoorn9076]

Thst winder is lovely. I cant help but think about those types of items throughout the day and wonder what they went to and who must have owned them. I love your treasures! ❤

[@rogerwilliams977]

That's the 1st coin I found, in the school yard when I was a little kid 😂❤

[@detectingdaft]

SO much history beneath our feet if we take a look. Best wishes to you from wet windy darkest Lancashire, England. Happy hunting to you.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thank you for watching!

[@AlabamaDigger]

At 8:42 that pewter thing is an 1800s coffin screw. I found a bunch at a place where the built coffins in the 1880s.

[@nuggetnoggin]

That's cool! What a find

[@itzcaseykc]

Nice items. I wonder if that curved item with a triangular point was part of a hinge. It's kewl nonetheless. You are going to give Daisy a real heart attack one of these days with the unexpected things/creatures you come across.

[@joycekennedy1730]

Beautiful Snake and great finds, love your videos!

[@nuggetnoggin]

Glad you enjoyed, thank you for watching!

[@ms.c.parker8137]

I am from Victoria, Australia and I enjoy watching your's and Daisy's channel, such interesting finds you get and even the animals are interesting too. The piece you found at 10:15 looks like a tip from an umbrella. It would secure the canopy to the end of the ribs on the frame of the umbrella. Sometimes google image search can also help if your not sure on some items.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Seems so! Thank you for this!

[@southpawwoodcrafts846]

The small cone-shaped piece with the hole in it (10:14) looks like the tip off of an umbrella. Not the center of the umbrella but one of the spine ends to keep you from poking yourself in the eye.

[@nuggetnoggin]

It does look like it. Thank you for watching!

[@whitewaterjack3332]

You have a awesome content channel, keep em coming

[@jaysmith179]

Watch out for poison ivy. Just got over a bad case of it while planting some trees on my land. Some great finds.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Yes poison ivy is bad this time of year because you can't see it. Thank you

[@trolltoon]

great finds - thanks for sharing

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thanks for watching!

[@dougsnyder8963]

Glad you spotted that Rattlesnake NN. I’ve never seen one in the wild either. Only copperheads and black snakes. Congrats on those awesome finds. Great looking Largie. I think that decorative brass piece under the spoon bowl may have been part of an old shutter. Part of a latch I think? Thanks for another productive video, Doug in NC

[@nuggetnoggin]

I appreciate it Doug! Now that I think about it , I did see a rattlesnake in Texas , but we went hunting for them at night . So it technically wasn’t while metal detecting . More videos on the way

Thank you!

We have many rattlesnakes near my home in Scottsdale, AZ. I keep my snake catcher pole and leg guards by my front door. I have captured a lot of them bothering my neighbors.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Crazy!

[@JustPlainSteve5372]

Yeah, keep that Rattler at a distance! ------------->🐍

[@RogueRipple]

As usual, great video! Those danger noodles are tricky to see! Especially copper heads. I was told here in Arkansas that you're always within 15 feet of one. Glad you spotted it!

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thank you!

Watching from Hertford North Carolina. That was a common snapper. You ran into in the woods. An alligator snapper has ridges on the back.

🐍 Yikes!!! 🐢 !!! Who knew there were rattlesnakes in South Carolina?! My beloved is from AZ🌵, which in my opinion is covered in them, and we have them in eastern WA, but SOUTH CAROLINA? Thanks for another great video, Nugget. Your finds were terrific & the video quality was terrific despite your equipment being left at home. 😁 One of your Seattle fans! ❤🌲🌦

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thank you! Rattlesnakes are in NC too , GA as well, you just don’t see them as much. The cell phone video turned out clear, worked well. I appreciate it!

[@davelafond7659]

Could that hallow ball be the cap for a cane and the bottom companion be for the tip of the cane. At the second site, could that triangular piece have attached to a door or shutter with the hole at the end attach to a hinge? Enjoy your videos!

[@dotfou1]

Hey guys! It's been a long time since I have been able to watch! Really have missed alot! Watching from Northern Arkansas!

[@stephenellison2475]

I've spent lots of times in the woods and have seen very few rattlers, they are shy and flee. Cotton mouths on the other hand are numerous and very aggressive. They actually come after you.

[@nuggetnoggin]

Glad i'm not the only one who sees very few. Thanks for watching

[@nuggetnoggin]

Wow that's awesome! I always enjoy metal detecting over in england

[@larrybarnes1892]

I’m watching you from Shelby, Ohio. We’ve met at your event the last two years. Unfortunately I cannot make it this year due to my daughter graduating from college! But I was wondering why you don’t use wireless headphones? Just curious! Thanks for all the great videos

[@nuggetnoggin]

Thanks again for watching! Also, I like the pen you made me & Daisy. I hope the graduation goes well! I prefer corded headphones , one less thing to charge or lose. Also AT pro don’t have wireless headphones capability unless you add a Z-Lynk and that’s too much on a detector. Need light weight and simplicity. I dig every beep at these 1700s sites. I leave the nails and small iron.

Thank you, I will try and make next years event if you go for 5 years in a row! Glad you like the pens. I can bring extra ink next year if you need it. @@nuggetnoggin

How do you find these places to metal detect? Are these public or private lands? I tend to go door to door asking for detecting permissions but I feel like I'm spending most of my time asking and getting denied instead of actually detecting.
