Metal Detecting: I Wonder What The Old House Looked Like?

Metal detecting around an old road that led to a house that was torn down or burned long ago. I found items to prove it's existence.

I hope you all enjoy this short adventure. I am currently editing more metal detecting videos and plan on releasing them soon. I have done very well this fall, and was happy to get some digging in before the years end. It looks like the cold weather will finally arrive here in Tennessee tomorrow.

Hi, Jon! Good to see you digging again! :) Love the area you are in. It just screams history to me, and it is quite beautiful there. If only the land could talk...but I guess it does when you find something in it from days gone by. Happy holidays to you and your family. Looking forward to your upcoming videos.

JD I found the handle of a spoon or fork this year that looks like the 2nd one you found. Mine is marked WM. A. ROGERS . Looked it up and found it pictured in an old catalog from 1908.

[@toddlarmon3708]

Hey JD! Its good to see you buddy! Great finds, i enjoyed the video. I hope you are well and i wish you and your family a MERRY CHRISTMAS!🎄

[@marymisdom3955]

Could that small heavy brass piece be a music box winder? That is, if the short stem is hollow. So nice to see you back into adventures outdoors again. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Great stuff going on there!

Nice to see you found the rest of the spoon as the handle part you found also resembled maybe a shoe horn. And on the aluminum can pretty sure thats a diet 7up can and if you google it I bet you can verify and even date it to a year just because of the red label.

Thanks!

[@JDsVarietyChannel]

Thank-you Patricia! That was very kind of you. :)

1890's soup ladle!

If you did electrolysis to that Indian it would take all that rough stuff off and look great. Cool finds buddy

[@marshabelchak2120]

Apple cider vinegar diluted in water works great cleaning that coin! Look the ratio up online 😁

[@emaildoctorj]

Go team T2!

[@frankportigiano1910]

It is amazing how much history is still in the ground. That acidic soil is eating away at these items But JD is getting them out of the ground for our viewing pleasure. 😃

[@crazyblade8991]

Glad seeing you make content again

[@BirdDogg]

Nice to see you getting back after it!

[@idigdaytona4478]

Enjoyed it .

[@AdamTheRaptor]

My first thought for the item at 9:00 was the center of a hubcap, but I don't recognize the symbol. Could be either a makeup/powder lid or like a snuff tin lid, but with how shiny it was, makeup seems more likely. Hope to see you posting more vids soon! Hope you're well!

[@mdsouthcarolina6143]

Thanks for the great videos! I have found, and you may already know this, but soaking crusty coins like you have in hydrogen peroxide will clean them up to show more detail. I have done this to both v nickels and Indians alike and it works

[@jasonnightingale6441]

Try electrolysis to help remove the scaly build up. Or even C.L.R.

[@mykittenisagrandmaster4381]

Sup Mister JD and everyone

[@likebot.]

Maybe that unit at 9 minutes in is the center piece from an after-market hubcap. I'm just spit-balling.

Hi Jonathan. Enjoyed the video. That spoon shape was common in the 1800s with those little tabs behind the bowl. Nice barber dime. That wooded hill across the road behind houses looks like an interesting spot.

[@jbolf6]

Keep pounding it Jon. Who knows what else you might turn up. Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@Ohpnuts]

Love that house...good luck my friend
