Congrats Brad. Have you ever walked into a museum that has Egyptian relics and statues? Many of those treasures are displayed in pieces and put back together like a puzzle. If you look at it that way, we can truly appreciate what you saved and is now on display for all of us. Thanks for finding such a beautiful coin and sharing its history with the modern world. Well done Brad.

[@thehooverboys]

Beautiful said. Thank you

[@muzicgr8]

Over all the years Brad always shines through, some folks got all the luck. Congrats Brad.

[@digging6068]

$50 richer and a lifetime of priceless memories, Congrats Brad! Thanks for all you guys do to save history and have fun doing it !

[@threefortytwo23]

thank you

[@thehooverboys]

Much appreciated. Thanks!

[@HeartbreakerRelics]

Only relic hunters know the joy of finding a bucket lister, a true once in a lifetime find and the agony of knowing you damaged the artifact. Truth is, it happens. It is the reality we all accept. No matter how careful we are it can still happen. Congratulations to all of you, especially Brad!

[@threefortytwo23]

Thanks. Love your channel.

[@thehooverboys]

Very well said. Thank you for the support

[@christopherschoffstall7334]

I honestly don't think Brad broke that coin. Yes, he may have nicked 1 piece of it, but the break had to be from a pointed rock setting over the coin when someone stepped on it.

[@Ellis157]

you all are like family to me I have fun watching you all thank you Gentlemen

[@thehooverboys]

We appreciate that brother

[@ianmountcastle6997]

Really enjoy watching you fellas today!! Amazing gold coin WOW !

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you for the support!

[@kathleenjohns2518]

Still just as hard to watch this again. Mothers do not want to see their children go through tough experiences AND Brad was willing to put it out there for all to see. I think because this is real life. Take it as it comes and look for the good. Love you!

[@thehooverboys]

It was hard to film. I almost turned the camera off. Such a roller coaster of emotions

[@deepbeeps]

You are a lucky mother to have such an AWESOME son! Like Kirt said, sure was a roller coaster of emotions, but it is still a gold coin....the find of a lifetime!

[@2dawgsmiked684]

He's going to dig something even better in the future, and will approach it a little differently. This was meant to happen this way.

[@flamed_bars7299]

Me and my dad love to see our coins and see if they are valuable. There are times I just want to do it alone but my dad is afraid I will lose the coins so he yells at me

[@bruiserbuk]

Congrats, Brad, and to all you guys. What a great thing to be a part of!! I dig watching you all dig.

[@yomangull2538]

We've all been waiting for the other finds from that day the gold coin was found by Brad. That was a dream spot for sure. British coppers, US coppers, US silvers, Spanish silvers, nickles, Indians and gold oh my. That had to be one of your best days EVER!

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you Yoman! We will never forget this day.

[@333Hogwarts]

Love the Snap-On coats and hats. Sold Snap-on for 27 years before I retired. Relic hunted Virginia for 40 years before I moved. Found a lot of nice stuff over that time period!!! Started in 1976 !

[@thehooverboys]

I bet you did. Va is loaded with history. All the best

[@lisamarsha7521]

That was so much fun to watch, Can’t imagine the joy you get saving history

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you Gail. I was on cloud 9

[@bogipepper]

You did it again, made me get out my 25 year old Fisher M-scope. All the aluminium on Anna Maria island is shaking over that. What a dig.

[@thehooverboys]

Hahaha! Thank you

[@philcasavant8216]

[@andynunez9153]

So awesome! Unbelievable finds on Beach Slice n Dice! Must have been an old swimming hole back in the day. Awesome finds that a lot of us other detectorist only dream about.

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you Lee! It was a high traffic area from a long time

[@agon1963]

Amazing! Love metal detecting and have never had such an awesome day like you guys did. Brad, sorry about your gold coin. One of my best finds but disappointed at the recovery was when I probed the ground to center on the target and I scratched the 1903 barber half. The coin was maybe an inch down. Love your videos. Would love to metal detect on the east coast again.

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you for the support! Sorry about the half. It happens unfortunately. Congrats on the find! I’d rather have a damaged coin over no coin. HH

[@lifeorliberty3086]

I love watching you guys. Bob is so funny. Yall are my favorite metal detector guys I've seen yet. Thanks for sharing the fun.

[@thehooverboys]

We appreciate it Mark. Thank you for the support

[@thehooverboys]

Always appreciated Ronnie. All the best

[@daytondigger1]

I'm sure I'd feel a little ticked about how the coin came out, but knowing I was night hunting on a rocky beach would help ease the pain and allow me to revel in the moment....

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you. It was a beautiful disaster

[@Jes_yeswith1S]

I am a total fan! Love you Kurt, and Bob and Brad! Sad to say that Brad bears a resemblance to my childhood sweetheart who died in 2001 but I love watching the 3 of you 100% You are my favorites!

You have to hunt more river banks untapped spots I use a canoe

[@thehooverboys]

That’s the plan. Thanks

[@MrBottlecapBill]

@@thehooverboys Trust me, put on some waders and go IN the water. If there's that much on shore, there is a good chance the water has even more.

[@jjkapelar7952]

Ridiculous hunt, sandy soil finds galore. Love it love it love it, that v was ridiculous Kurt congrats to all the members gl and hh.

Also congrats to brad for plucking the shipwreck gold lol. That’s an unbelievable piece of history

[@thehooverboys]

[@ObiWanBillKenobi]

I'm curious: Was the territory that the gold coin came out of ever under French control?

[@thehooverboys]

Nope. Was just next to an early colonial farm

[@lesterroberts4787]

My Wednesday has been made, Kurt and the boys, thank you for the videos.

Just started watching. Great times you guys must have. Soon you all will find a cache of gold and silver coins.

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you for the support. We appreciate it

[@finderskeepers6684]

There's no telling who/what/how/when that coin was dropped...but just thinking about 1700's in that area and what it was like...being able to hold that coin knowing that the last person that held it died probably 240 years ago, it's what makes this hobby so freaking addicting! Great video, sorry for your loss...

[@deangarn1488]

that's awesome & that broken gold coin is unbelievable

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you for the support Dean

[@erwa2139]

I just found you guys a couple weeks ago - I am spending my at home days watching you guys all day long. The videos are great! I wish I had found your channel a long time ago - at least now I can look forward to new videos. Great stuff and thank you for all the work!

[@garymozingo3383]

The rivers are the last frontier! Amazing finds all the time if you find the right spot and apparently you did. Had to be a ferry crossing, tavern on the bank, whatever, but it was well used, no telling what's left still in the muck at low tide. Those guys put you on a honey hole for sure! Congrats to Brad, those gold coins don't just jump in your pouch, well done. Never seen one break like that. Amazing spot and well videoed. Thanks guys...

[@thehooverboys]

Thank you Gary. To say the least Yes it was a high traffic area for a long time. And yes money traded hands here. All the best!

[@hightoneshoneybadger7015]

Had that been me instead of Brad digging that gold coin, my own mother would have said, "this is why we never had nice things". (I'll show her this video and she'll agree hahaha). Great find Brad, another masterpiece video Kurt!

[@jimmyroberts3]

Dam what a day. That muck looked infectious. Lol Coins have been enjoying that spot for 300 yrs. Crazy to think humans have lost coins in predictably the same spots for that long. On that day everything lined up, the research, checking the dam field first, then a decision to go by the water. Epic! Hell yea! Yall are the best.

[@thehooverboys]

Thanks James! It was a high traffic area for a long time. We were going to wait for a warmer day to hit the water. The low tide just called my name. Hahaha
