The FIRST U.S. Coin Ever Made Found Metal Detecting a 1760 Property!

This week we get access to metal detect an amazing 1760's house. Not even a house really, more of a complex with outbuilding, barns, carriage houses, ice houses, and so many more structures on the property! From the first hole of the day until the last hole we were pulling incredible pieces of history out of the ground including some really early coins, unique presidential and military buttons, or some crazy relics that just blew our socks off! There were so many finds that I'm going to break this property up into a few different videos with this one showing just a sampling of what we found as I continue to edit clip after clip for upcoming videos. For the kind of detecting we love to do, it might not get any better than this so hold on to your top hats and enjoy the fun right along with us!

I'm a 52-year-old fan girl I guess, because when I saw the video on my homepage I just squealed oh boy a new quarter hoarder! I found my first item yesterday in my backyard while practicing with my stepsons cheap metal detector. I found a nail.

[@joestrackmetaldetecting2746]

Stick with it. I started metal detecting a year ago because of channels like Quarter Hoarder. Best hobby ever

[@QuarterHoarder]

Thanks for watching and don’t be too bummed, I’ve been doing this for years and still dig nails every week. Maybe we’ll build a tree fort together one day. 🙂

[@erink695]

Mine was always tin foil. I used to use one when I was 12. Evidently my uncle who owned this house before us grilled out...a lot! It was discouraging!

[@blacksunshine099]

Keep at it... I started with a 100 dollar bounty hunter 10 years ago and went to a Garrett ace 350 and now got a couple Minelab's this hobby is one of the best...and remember we all still dig nails regardless of how much we paid for our detector.

[@CobCeo]

I was excited to find the nail, not discouraged. I was excited to know I could figure out where to dig and got the target. Thank you all for the replies. It is the best hobby because it combines cleaning up the outdoors, history and things that are worth money, all things I like.

[@janas7088]

Nice button Rich. Beautiful bell Dustin. Spectacular presidential button Rich. Awesome 1812 button Jason. Amazing nova constellatio coin Dustin. Great large cent Jason. Nice token Doug. You guys find the most old history finds. Lucky you all. Glad I get to watch you find them.

[@Patriot-American]

Best detecting channel on KZbin! Such great folks and personalities ...

[@QuarterHoarder]

Thanks! You’re gonna make Doug blush… 🙂

[@jlen82]

I actually drive by you guys on this video on Bristol Rd. Wish I knew it was you guys at the time.

[@j.d.9648]

So the little boy was complaining to his father about how much he hated school and all of his homework. The father, trying to impress his son, said, "son, when Abe Lincoln was your age, he'd read and do his homework by the light of the fire in the fireplace. He'd walk three miles to school, rain or snow"! After giving it some thought, and being unimpressed with his father's Lincoln story, he said, "Well Dad, when Lincoln was YOUR age, he was President of the United States"!! lol! The log cabin button made me think of that old joke that my father used to tell. Great finds and great video!! Thank you Quarter Hoarder and crew!!

[@digginupthecarolinas9870]

RICH VAN WRINKLE IS SOOO KNOWLEDGEABLE THAT IT'S CRAZY, HE DIDN'T EVEN NEED GOGLE,HE WOULD BE HE!!ON A GAME SHOW,GREAT VIDEO

[@RichVanWinkle37]

Wow, thanks everyone!

[@stevenstark9017]

awesome video guys and wow all those Cool looking finds, the tombac bell, Rich's button, Jason's navy button and especially the first U S. 1783 coin.

[@yerdigginitmetaldetecting]

The day started out great with Rich’s USX button and just kept getting better … the bell, the Harrison button , the Nova coin… can’t wait to see what’s next! Congrats guys! ⚒

[@priscillakutzler8000]

It's a very educational hobby. My first detector was called treasure finder 2. It was sold by radio shack back in the 90's. I found my first piece of foil, and dime, penny and a old spoon. Those finds got me hooked. Today I use Vanquish 540 and whites coin master turn on and go detector.

[@TeamLynchBMD]

Nice hunt gang, great seeing Dustin out hunting,nice bell, love the USX and log cabin William Henry Harrison button. Cool watch and Great War of 1812 era Navy button.👋👍

[@gzahirny]

"One of the cooler things I've seen ALL day!" Next T-Shirt idea lol

[@cheaplaughkennedy2318]

Awesome history on early coinage and some incredible finds 👌👍

[@southernpakarting5088]

Awesome hunt guys , nice buttons rich.

[@lifeisgoodenjoyeachday438]

Out-friggin-standing guys. Best MD channel .

[@michaelwest5072]

Looking forward to next week’s video. Wow the finds just keep getting better! And Doug, reming Jason it’s not who’s is bigger but how you swing it. With age comes perfection.

[@MUDSWAT]

That's really amazing! In 15 years of looking at forums and looking at posts and watching youtube. Even metal detecting the entire time myself. I don't recall ANYONE finding this coin. Among the few of our "First Coins", this is remarkable. Happy Hunting!

[@markvpinkham]

Great history lesson on the Nova. Enjoyed the video immensely.

[@myruelsb1151]

What he said was correct EXCEPT this isn't one of those coins. This is a Nova Constellatio Copper which they all were struck in 1783 in England. No matter what date appears. These are very common and you buy one in decent shape for about $110, since they were never used as currency and never really in circulation. Starting to sound like Oak Island on this channel stretching so far to connect dots which don't line up at all to sound better then what is actually present and face value. Cool find, great history lesson, just not for what was found.

[@rousingtherelics]

@@myruelsb1151 It’s truly great to have knowledgeable people watching along with us novices. But does sharing correct information have to be dripping with sarcastic digs? I mean, really, this is how we learn, and if someone stands corrected that’s all cool. But to act superior to a group of honest people who love getting together and going outdoors to dig around for what most won’t… really?? (Mods, forgive me, but, well, sorry not sorry. Delete if you need.)

[@teresathetreasurehunter]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼‼️ We found a Harrison Log Cabin button at our Airbnb on lake Champlain last October. Pretty exciting 😀 I will send you the video. Looking forward to seeing y’all again soon.

[@davidcriswell6219]

Great find Dustin! And everyone… can’t wait to see part 2

[@RelicDog]

Man I’ve been out of the loop way too long Jason!! You’re doing amazing!!! What a great permission! What great finds! Now to the second part! Best wishes bud, Chris

[@yomangull2538]

Great hunt guys and congrats Dustin on finding that Nova. That bell was pretty sweet also. Looking forward to seeing what else you pull out of that location.

[@thomasknapp6403]

Great hunt and finds. Love the video editing skills and the history lessons. 👏

[@billcrow5403]

Jason, really like your videos. They are top notch, family friendly, and very informative. I’m in the process of watching all of them. I’ve metal detected most of my life, other than a 10 year break for back problems. Awesome videos!!

[@rustydigger5291]

This was such an awesome incredible day!! Thank you guys again for having me an long. Definitely a coin of a lifetime!! Thank you Doug and Jason!

[@QuarterHoarder]

Awesome place for sure Dustin. There’s a lot more great finds still to come too!

[@bells1054]

Watching your videos, I run out of superlatives for your finds. Congratulations to each and every one of you!!

[@rousingtherelics]

Thank you for the history you add when showing your finds. That first gov’t coin was amazing to see you find!! Loved that bell, too! I got out yesterday and found my first ever old old coin - an 1848 braided hair one cent - using the Simplex+! It was deep! I found a 1956 dog license tag today - hubs says it was from the first dog he remembers having (and, no, not where he was buried because I asked 😉😆).

[@QuarterHoarder]

Thanks Marci and congratulations on your first large cent! The excitement of finding them never gets old either!

[@rousingtherelics]

@@QuarterHoarder thank you so much!

[@terrygreennway9655]

Super great finds guys. Sometimes I think you guys are full of something but love watching you all. Terry

[@dirtdiggindawg310]

He keeps this up your gonna have to change it to Rick Van Buttons lol . Congrats to Dustin on the Nova!!

[@jamesmendicino4898]

What an absolutely amazing hunt!! Great job everyone!! Super jealous with all those amazing finds. Thank you for sharing!!

[@terryarchibald2467]

I think this was the most amazing thing I've seen all day. Thanks guys.

[@martinmarsola6477]

Nice finds today. Especially that 1783 coin! 🙂👍🇺🇸

[@matthewtaylor1697]

Great coins and good friends

[@sammyfisher2590]

Super excited for y’all. What a Show !!!

[@EZDiggin]

Wow some awesome pieces of the past out of the ground Jason!!! Sweet buttons coins and a bell. Dustin definitely won the game with that Nova. What an awesome find. Happy hunting and be well

[@StefDigs]

Oh wow, I didn't realize THAT coin was in this week's video, hah! What a find - can't wait to see what else this property turns up for you all!

[@shawnathon60]

That hunt was a grand slam!!! Great stuff!

[@drkline69]

Great historic rundown of the history of early American coins. Was very educational. Thanks guys!

[@davidlaurachumbley8643]

Great video!! I’m thinking Rich should NEVER give up his Ace 400…..

[@norvalgreenwold7822]

GREAT hunt people!! I'm envious of the ground you guys get to dig. Keep up the great work! Looking good Doug!

[@eddigiese]

I may not be healthy enough yet to do a full scale detecting day yet but I still feel like I find treasure every time I get a notification that you've posted a new video. Thanks guys ❤️

[@warrenmink2429]

Great hunt ! That area must be a hot spot , with all the period pieces and rare coins ! Love the buttons , thank you for sharing

[@wicked_digger]

Wow!! Fantastic finds! What an amazing coin to have, huge bucket lister right there! Beautiful buttons and love that tombac Conestoga! 👊

[@tracymeadows3442]

Absolutely Phenomenal Saves guys👍🏻👍🏻

[@georgedevlin6623]

Watch you all the time.Good job Jason.

[@jardog13]

Never been disappointed watching you all!!!

[@Deus-Too]

Great video....I am green with envy! Magnificent discoveries! 👍

[@Azoreanislandgirl64]

I love the finds. so happy the weather is getting warmer.

[@smokinlouie9885]

We see Jason is enjoying his Legend Detector!

[@brucesammuli1040]

Congrat's on the cool coins and buttons. Awesome video

[@brianpondo8670]

Along with all the great stuff you found, I am impressed with Rich's knowledge of history. He knew that the log cabin was associated with a presidential campaign. A real W.H.Harrison button! Not Benjamin Harrison, the grandson. What an awesome day. I'm just wondering what would have happened if Dustin had taken the silver dime instead of door #3? :) I know coins a little and have never heard of a Nova Constallatio. It even has an All Seeing Eye! All I can say is, "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too"!

[@RichVanWinkle37]

Thank you! I have always been fascinated with the history of everyday items. Most of it is due to my wonderful mother teaching me over the years.

[@jimchambers4961]

GREAT FINDS!!! Lynn brings you good luck, thanks for taking us with you.

[@marythepaintergirl1257]

Awesome coins whoa and cool buttons. I love buttons. 🥰

Such Amazing finds!! i have never even seen nor heard of our First Coin. love your channel for all the knowledge it brings to so many...

[@aparson2967]

Amazing yard! Variety, details on everything, and the coolest thing ever x10. That property could be a 10 part series. Lynn needs a detector.

[@cindycurrie659]

Congratulations guys!! What great finds. Love watching your videos, I learn so much!!! Can’t wait for your next video

[@bobbeaver2318]

You guys get the most amazing permissions! Love those old buttons , amazing old coins, and hearing the history behind them! Great hunt and video, I’m going to put on my DTD tshirt and go dig!

[@QuarterHoarder]

Thanks Bob! We certainly try to get on the good spots!

[@cindygallagher5367]

Jason, cool video and great finds. Hi Doug keep swinging.

[@kyelholmes3878]

Just got my new Vanquish. Super excited! I've been using a really old yard sale $20 special, but I've found some stuff with it.

[@WarBorn313]

So much good stuff in this one video 😱🤯

[@theman37251]

Great video guys really enjoyed it

[@bubblesangel555]

I think that Conestoga bell has worn spots on it from swinging back, ad forth on the wagon/cart. I'm not sure what the pocket watch looking thing really is, but it looks like it's heavy! P.s. I love you Doug 🥰 and congratulations Rich!

[@ricardosilverdetector5245]

Nice coins and beautiful video

[@jcrows6627]

Unreal how much old stuff you guys find.
