Metal Detecting The In-Laws Yard

Join me as I spend a few hours metal detecting and searching around an old house. I discover several coins and find a nice Civil War memento. I also explain, share some experience and offer tips and tricks of searching with a detector.

Darndest thing, whenever Beau watches the house we get an infestation of groundhogs.

What state is this?

[@winstonthomas1785]

I honestly find more old coins at work opening coin rolls than I ever find detecting and I think you've proved that diversification in exploring and not limiting yourself to just detecting an area can be very fruitful indeed. Thanks for the very interesting river videos. I too found a few old guns along some waterways where conflicts took place. Makes you think and really drives home the reality. It's one thing to read about a war but quite something else to find it.

[@maryhelen1011]

You're a great detective! I love the stepping stone and the water house stories! Awesome video!

[@chrisjones924]

that blade is a hook blade used primarily for roofing, good for cutting shingles.

[@TheWibbo]

Chris Jones also known as a linoleum blade made by Stanley

[@garyadams7519]

or carpet

[@57fitter]

Sparkys ( electricians ) will use those to strip Romex with , too.

[@REDBEAM58]

Used way to many of them. : (

[@kayak1102]

Came here to say this, that's exactly what that is.

[@Nicholasjordanbergmann]

Mr. Chigg you inspired me to start coin roll hunting! I though I found my very first silver nickel just today! I just made a vid about it. Turns out it's a 1942 NO Mint mark, such a bummer. Thanks for being awesome chigg

[@Glovegameboxing]

Nicholas.Bergmann hey checked out your vid great job

[@Nicholasjordanbergmann]

Jazzmen Underwood woah that's awesome! Chigg is the best

[@wrnchhead76]

20 years since you were at the in-laws? A man after my own heart!

[@valiantwarrior4517]

I think he just meant 20 years since he had last metal detected there. But that was hilarious. 😂

[@valiantwarrior4517]

Can’t help imagining the in-laws coming back and finding a thousand holes dug in their yard and not filled in. 🤣 Free aeration!

[@davidhathaway4481]

I've got 230 acres in Oregon that you should do an episode on next time you make it out west. With just a plow we've found a musket, a cannon ball and a silver half dollar. Just think of all the treasure!

[@davidhathaway4481]

Cool! Hope you make it out here

[@MY-iw5dj]

If you suddenly disappear off the face of youtube, then we'll know who's behind the homicide. Cheers man :D

[@chrisprasch9851]

David H what part of Oregon? I live in Oregon. Would you be willing to let a newbie come take a shot?

[@PerfectStorm1986]

What happened to his reply ?!

[@laurijorgenson6683]

Absolutely love watching your videos. Not only can I see your enthusiasm but it gets my heart pumping every time you unearth anything. I enjoy how you weave in the history and side stories. Thank you very much for sharing it all, including tips on metal detecting. I just retired this year and got a metal detector as a retirement gift. It is sooo addicting.

[@mikepresnell8292]

Nice! The in laws head out..Go on in and dig the place up...I love it!!! LOL!!... Great video!

[@JLOParanormalAZ]

I love how descriptive you get and give us a little insight as to what it is you're thinking. No show on TV compares to this type of documentary. Glad DALLMYD led me to you!

[@fortunateson6070]

Leave Beau house sitting on an old property and by the time you come back it looks like the FBI was looking for bodies in the yard...

[@ScottAReid]

like it when you give information, like about the stepping stone or why the moss is under the maple tree. i learn from this. love your channel. prob my fav metal detector/relic hunting channel. keep posting! thanks!

[@Athenstrainman]

I like your little cool facts,like the moss and the stepping stone

[@michaelhodgson6756]

never gets old watching your videos

[@skoonthatraccoonskunkguy3865]

I love wheat pennies! To me there like the starch food of American metal detecting. They're like potatoes, rice, or maybe spaghetti. Wheat pennies = noodles and sauce Indian heads = meat balls Silver = side of steak! Of course non cash relics will vary depending on what they are and condition. Oh, and junk items of intrigue are the bread sticks they try to fill ya up on.

[@kernicb1]

Your in-laws have a beautiful place Chigg. Loved seeing the civil war bullet.

[@JanVafa]

I LOVE wheat pennies!

[@aprilhill333]

LOVE. Watching your vids!! You're the Bob Ross of metal detecting!!!

[@MiltonTucker]

When the in laws are away, the chigg will play.

[@lizzymoore54]

The last brick you showed us looked vitrified, as if it had been in a fire, so you are right about the older house, it caught 🔥 !

[@petitemew]

I am learning so much. I love how you explain everything.

[@larrystephens7437]

What.! No hunting the hog lot..!! Plowing the yard.... Fun hunt, thanks of sharing...

[@bencoleman1893]

As always sir another great video I am loving the longer ones! Thank you for doing what you do

[@pchamilton2011]

I enjoy watching your videos. I send a hello from Nova Scotia, Canada.

[@nonnomen4947]

Absolutely fascinating, thanks for showing this sort of contemporary archeology. I love it.

[@gagemclaughlin3432]

yo Chigg, I just found out something amazing today, I currently attend the job Corp trade school in prestonsburg Kentucky, and i found out that the creek across the road from us is middle creek, I'm currently living where one of the biggest losses for the Confederacy took place during the civil war, sooo cool.

[@rickydee9761]

A good tip for when in you own yard or the inlaws after putting back the plug go over it with a yard brush and they will never know! Great video as always!

[@OutdoorDon]

The car thing was a multivibrator used in old car radios. It changed the DC current to AC so the voltage could be stepped up thru a transformer.

[@ashleybrown7742]

I love how you laugh after everything

[@brucethompson1879]

Mr. Chigg, you are amazing and keep me entertained..thanks!

[@fishaholiclures]

First blade was a Linoleum blade for a Stanley Knife. Find a Penny, pick it up, then all day you'll have good luck!!!! ....great quote from Grease 1 I kept waiting for you to find the water line Beau LOL

[@brianhughes1209]

Excellent video! Classic Aquachigger. I keep learning. Thanks.

[@frankieschaeffer2020]

Great job! I learn something new Everytime I watch one of your adventures!!!!😀

[@stonequarry1]

i like watching your videos because you just don't show the good stuff you find like alot of other ppl do its fun watching yours

[@justicews]

What a wonderful knowledge of history. Thanks

[@ethanladue2745]

Coin hunting videos are my favorite

[@jillybean9329]

so interesting! Thanks again for sharing Chigg!! ❤ the vids!

[@nobodyatall9946]

I love digging wheat pennies. I had a place they're now developing that was littered with wheat pennies. I probably dig 50 pennies in a 40 square yard area. Ecstatic with each coin.

[@altonriggs2352]

a man leaves town and you steal his bottle caps!!!! ha! loved the video!!! thanks

[@PamelaHegedusLadyDiggerinPa]

Nice video and quite an interesting dig. It's not always about digging super relics and coins. Thanks once again for sharing,

[@lloydmyersable]

at 519, the razor blade you found looks like the one I used when I was roofing and cutting the asphalt shingles on the house. I really enjoy your videos

[@aprildrew2171]

Again love your videos beau (chigg) they're awesome!

[@mawetzler89]

Great video and gorgeous truck! haha green is my color!

[@andrewroland5533]

Love your videos so much! keep making them to entertain!! This video made my day! So interesting

[@charleswilder2985]

Good effort. Tough detecting around all that iron!

[@marijoyates6865]

The razor thing you found in the third hole is a hook blade used toi cut roof shingles.

[@bpj0420]

@Aquachigger hey! So about your moss problem, yes due to the shade it cause the grass to die leaving bare spots leading to the growth of the moss but it also had to do with the pH balance in the soil.Getting a lime treatment will help help raise the acidity of the soil and then a rye/fescue grass blend will grow in high shade! Hope you read this and it helps! Everybody loves a full luscious lawn!

[@allie_ella]

Love your videos Aquachigger!!!

[@armpitfuzz]

You are so blessed, living in a beautiful spot.

[@MadisonMainedetecting]

You'd never know spring is coming up this way. GL&HH

[@johnstevenson9429]

After checking out one of your videos on different shovels, I picked up one like your using in this video. I took it to a lawn mower repair place that sharpened blades and had them put an edge on the two front edges and about 4-5 inches up each side. This thing rips through roots like a knife through butter.

[@indianavarietychannel8859]

I love this type of video, good job👍🏾

[@steveyulenburg129]

That razor you found Beau was for cutting vinyl flooring. It's called a hook blade.

[@cmf123fisherman3]

After while crocodile!!!!!!!😁😁😁 grandfather says that to me keep doing what u do!!!!!!

Awesome video!

[@trashbeatz4406]

I used to metal detect a bit and I got super excited when I found wheat pennies lol

Lebron Cavs Player yep

[@benferrelloutdoors1638]

[@BrionMacGilroy]

The hooked Razor blade is for cutting asphalt shingles.

[@inspiretodream3]

Great video!

[@richardstonehouse7842]

thanks Beau

[@lillystieg8485]

be careful you might find a few X son-in-laws back there

[@paulmerritt7540]

Your pocket watch thingy is really one of those ringy dingy thingy's from the handlebars of a bicycle.

[@laurengrimsrud5551]

love ur vids sooooooooo much!

[@57fitter]

Hi Beau! I've done the locate THEN dig thing when the ground is really sloppy or it's really cold and crappy. I use surveyor flags, though. You can locate and put your machine down, then dig in the mud or whatever and pinpoint the goodies. GL & HH

[@youngwoodsman4110]

The first piece of pottery you showed us was actually a peice of broken 1950s era piping

[@roberthealy2331]

as usual. great vid and lesson

[@MisterTalkingMachine]

Hey Beau, that thing you thought was an electrical thing from a car is a metal vacuum tube from a radio.

[@davidduthie8138]

Love your videos

[@stevenz1396]

Hey chig the piece of jewelry you found by the stepping stone might be a rosette from horse saddle decorations that could have been crimped into the leather??? Always love your videos thank you for sharing 👽👽👽

[@UrBasicGuy]

Aquachigger. I enjoy your videos and thank you for sharing them. A suggestion for you though. Instead of using bark or rocks or whatever you find as a marker for hot spots you should make some kind of marker flags that you can stick into the ground.

[@bbvmedic]

The hooked blade is a linoleum blade for flooring.

[@pigeonfish1725]

Please go on an Indian arrowhead hunt!!

[@susansalway8452]

I love your videos...almost a good as being there. Loved the stepping stone story, but I am afraid with my bad knees I'd need a catapult. Wii keep on exploring vicariously through your videos,gl/hh!

[@northwoodsdigger2247]

great video man!

[@Not_a_real_guru]

that is some amazing dirt lol

[@thomasroberts1426]

might by the lost KGC gold stash in that underground cave you found...good luck hope you find something under there to go with the pottery

[@cindyharding574]

The Big longer metal piece reminds me of a handle for a old men's shaving blade

[@justinblu3330]

love the videos! you and nugget got me hooked to detecting and magnet fishing. i just ordered my first fishing magnet today from k&j magnetics . told them i got there info from your video!!!!

[@Cinnamaruu]

Last time they let you watch their house... kidding, you're a really nice and sweet dude.

[@youngwoodsman4110]

puppy turner yeah whenever he watches the house it looks like a groundhog infestation

[@jameslucas4220]

That piece of iron might be one of the forks from a pitchfork
