What a great time with Billy! He seems like a real nice guy. It was cool seeing the two of you becoming friends over the past episodes. Friendship like a tree grows as deep as it's Root's.

[@rickyaderholt4119]

Awe Chigg you have a great friend! Billy really seems like a genuine person. Praise God for wonderful people. Happy Hunting and safe Travels my brother.

[@jthreeb]

[@danweiss1371]

I think you and Billy had a lot of fun. Billy is your type of folk. Great video thanks for sharing

[@pettyscout]

They used that building technique during the civil war as well, fort Pulaski in savannah georgia has those molded concrete all around old home sites. So if you ever see oyster shells in a concrete mix, that can date back from civil war on down :D

[@lesahanners5057]

Awesome you weren't skunked! Billy and Beau, you gotta know, we will follow wherever you go! At least you know that George II coin has to date from 1727 to 1760. How cool is that?!

[@vin-r8602]

Lesa Hanners pretty darn cool

[@jeffmckelvy1489]

I dig Billy. He's cool. Love the videos, Chigmeister!

[@jamesd.broscious1603]

Nice chigg. I'm sure there's some nice undiscovered relics still in the ground around there. Love the thimble, so personal! I get a thrill holding something in my hand that was lost 200+ years ago. That's what does it for me!! Nice video my friend.

[@jthreeb]

I love that thrill too! wondering how it was lost, how it was used and who used it! I love this hobby!

[@grandprismatic]

Good times cool digs thanks Chigg and Billy!

[@TheAshton1995]

Sometimes if you look hard enough in the tabby structures you can find native pottery. I guess the people that produced it got the shells from middens.

[@charlieboyzname]

And....you did it again! Great upload as ever, keep up the great work, info and laughs.

[@cd1673]

charlieboyzname how did you watch a 21 minute video, uploaded 4 minutes before you commented? Edit: hey, not trying to be mean, just wondering if you had a preview on Patreon or something?

[@jeffhuie1028]

Hey good dig.My at max likes batterys when you leave the back light on.

[@gozznut]

I love how the Chigg keeps wiping his face with his forearm and his face gets progressively dirtier hahaha!

[@clubjetty]

I am fairly new here and enjoying all of your videos, they are really so interesting. I do have a couple of questions first, I noticed that you talk a lot about finding oyster shells, my question is why are they there and how did they get there? Also why are there so many buttons to be found? Thank you for making such great videos and educating us on metal detecting!

[@matthewvaughan3245]

I've been binge watching today. I notice you talk about oyster shells in a few of the video's. Can you tell me what significance the shells make when targeting a site? I take it they go hand in hand in whether or not you will have a good day of hunting but I can't make the connection. Enjoy your site very much, thank you

[@rhondayarnot6270]

Hi Aqua Chigger! Rhonda from Oregon! I have been metal detecting for about 3 years now and have been watching your videos from day 1. I only have the ace 250 and the black Garrett pin pointer which isn’t waterproof. I have a question? I have seen a few people waterproof their pointers but don’t know what they use to do it. Any suggestions? Btw....Love the variety of your channel! Thanks for keeping me interested in the hobby. I have found a few cool things over the past few years like silver and gold but not very often. Love the video of the old silver board found in the river! A dream find for any detectoris! HH

[@will-da-beast4628]

I don't know if you will get to read this I know a lot of people comment can't get to them all. I never even thought about metal detecting until I started watching your videos about a year and a half ago, I've watched all your videos. I've learned a lot from watching your videos. Just wanted to say thank you and hope to get to meet you one of these days.

[@jthreeb]

He will be in Toronto Ontario Canada on June 9th for the Radioworld Metal Detecting Day!

[@JNO123]

I just heard "hold yer breath" about a dozen times! Who said it?!? Aquachigger? I wish! It was the CT machine during a scan. No civil war minie balls in there. Still waiting on word on kidney stones. 😀

[@untbunny]

Jill Richard ouch! Hope the stone passes quickly.

[@chrismsimracing]

Reminds me of when you went mudlarking in London

[@metaldetectingqueensland1233]

How is that oyster shells are often found laying out on top of the ground but artifacts are found beneath the ground? Is it just to do with weight? Tia Steven.

[@sickregret]

Wow, this looks just like North Florida. Chigg, have you ever detected St. Augustine? Oldest Spanish settlement in the country...

[@RelicHuntersWales]

One day our channel will get 15k viewers in less than a day :-). Another great video buddy, love watching them

[@justinbeaumont8780]

Whats the best way to get rust and crud off of an old metal utensil?

[@nutsforyou98]

are you going to the temple tx metal detecting show this weekend

[@legendaryexplorer8119]

Awseome finds today! Hey aqua do you happen to have any civil war bullets laying around? I've been searching for weeks and can't seem to find any

[@gabrielmartin2824]

Hi love the vids

[@buddyb.3855]

Any chance of you letting us know the best settings for gold and silver find? please sir and best settings for relics

[@untbunny]

Is it possible the pig tusk at 19:57 is a pottery sherd?

[@clivewarren780]

I love civil war stuff, but i love colonial stuff MOAR!

[@peterscheffer3578]

" Billy Beau Thornton " episode. Just saying Chigg!

[@gameoverlord8012]

cool dudes find cool stuff!

[@jthreeb]

I'm cool too! ;) just say'n

[@katecoombes1000]

What do you do with all your scrap lead you find on your hunts?

[@obsidianflame3028]

How do you avoid water mocosons in the rivers you go to?

[@CapitalNick]

Looks like a coin or something round at 16:55, lower-third of the screen, center.

[@shanedavis5016]

St. Augustine fort is made out of that stuff is called Coco it's a type of concrete they use back in the old days

[@boraonder4667]

could you make a video about all of your collections??

[@SamyyCole]

i love that outro :D

[@jthreeb]

it's awesome!!!

[@pyro.augh23]

actually that stone tool you found in the beginning of the video was one of the blades from an indian torture table they wood have a wood bed frame and there would be hundreds of those blades glued into the wood and they wood have the prisoners lay down on it and be weighed down by rocks tied to the ankles.

[@coinucopia]

Rabbit pills are good for depression, they make you hoppy!

[@janvafa4253]

Coinucopia - 😳😜🤣😂🤣❤️

[@bleach.o2308]

Hey Man U got a spider on your hat at 0.23

[@rhondayarnot6270]

Sorry on my last post. It’s supposed to say silver hoard, not board.

[@grandthefthorse2643]

How do you know where to look for things?

[@jimmycloake5275]

[@hungrymanevony9400]

Im heading to NC in july ,,do you know any spots or people to hook up with when I go..I am from cali so I dont have any civil war sites in these here parts :)..Ideas ?

[@Manda11.11]

billy seems like a sweet man :)

[@jrg7951]

South Carolina is covered with colonial sites, lots of Revolutionary War battle sites.

[@yorpersona]

Just a reminder-buttons aren't born and grow from babies to juveniles to adults. They are what they are.

[@Quagmire88]

That coin is pretty darn old. Those King George coinds range from 1720's to 1760's

[@Jane_Dow]

maybe thats a baby spoon. lol

[@pcaddison491]

Could you tell me the name of the song at the end of your videos?

[@jimkey920]

The drawer knob appears to be Victorian. English large cent?

[@jthreeb]

Good ID's!

[@rrxp]

You hero

[@buckle9733]

Tbh I would watch a two hour long video lol
