Hey Folks! For daily and up-to-date posts, I invite you to join the Green Mountain community outside of KZbin! If you’re a Facebook user, stop on by Facebook.com/GreenMountainMetalDetecting and for Instagram users you can find me @Green.Mountain.Metal.Detecting. Hope you enjoy today's video!

[@aropals672]

Did you get the pick ax or did the land owner keep it?

[@mknewlan67]

Brad! Merry Christmas to you and your family and a fantastic New Year!

[@donazzopardi2721]

Done

[@donazzopardi2721]

I wonder what the old land owner found

[@annepayette]

I love your videos. Insight to history. Such a lovely, lovely gift you provide to us non history buffs. It brings meaningful and tangible artifacts from a period of time that for me, would go unnoticed, to the present. It sorta makes the history come alive, rather than it just being, in the past. Did I explain that correctly? Also, I appreciate your videos even more since your vlog about your music. It makes you and your content more genuine, since I know you make all of your own music. I try to post as many of these on fb as I can. I wish you the best! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@henrypallmerine8317]

Thank you for taking me along on another trip through the Vermont woods. I am 78 and grew up in WRJct. and moved to Missouri in 2005 after I retired to be with my Grandchildren. I miss the Vermont woods they are the greatest place on earth. I could almost smell the balsam trees in your videos although I didn't see them in your videos. Another great hunt. Your friend in Nixa, Mo.

[@teresastrayhorn277]

Brad, thank you once again for an award-winning video!! I'm not in the best of health and your videos always make me happy. You take me to where my heart and soul belong and that's in the woods.

[@GMMD]

Thanks so much, Teresa!

[@unrulyjulie4382]

Same here, Brad. I used to be very active, going deer and duck hunting every year, as well as lots of hiking and exploring. I'm unable to anymore, but your videos are the next best thing! Thank you so much for what you do!

[@HokieJuju]

Same here Teresa!!!!! His videos are the best!! I feel like I'm there in the woods with him!!

[@darlenefraser3022]

I used to so enjoy hiking in the woods in British Columbia, Canada. Now I’m stuck inside due to health issues. You make me feel young and more engaged with Mother Nature again.

[@cruzdirector8637]

Well, another Teresa here, in the same health challenged boat! Just found this channel and am busy watching all his videos! What a blessed time that we can have so many options to spend our time when limited physically. Ive always wanted to do metal detecting but had forgotten about it until seeing these videos. I have the mist eclectic group of channels I follow - which is so fun. I remembermy grandmother sitting day after day watching her “soaps” for lack of anything else she was snle to do. Social media can be a horrible beast, but what a gift it can be! Thank you Brad @GreenMountainMetal for being one if the “gift” channels!

[@chrisbarrett5416]

Friday morning is now complete! Thank you Sir for taking us with you!!!

[@GMMD]

Thanks for coming along, Chris!

[@mikemorgan4412]

I was so happy I didn’t have to hike out there with you. Riding on a four wheeler is way better especially at my age, thank you. I hope you got to keep the pickax. I have enjoyed all your videos they are just the right length not too long or too short and very informative. Like I have said before you are very talented. Have a great weekend.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Always a pleasure to watch Your adventures. Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter

[@J12F]

Love your videos!

[@maryf.1956]

Brad thank you for showing us your finds. They are fascinating and like you I imagine how they were used and by whom. One of the things I love about your channel is the photography. It is just beautiful and very artful the way you display nature with your camera. That in itself is a treasure! Thank you again, and good hunting.

[@camillefulton7709]

THANKS BRAD GREAT TRIP AND FINDS, LOVE THE WOODS, FROG, BUTTERFLY. HEALTH TO KEEP ON ENJOYING. CAMILLE AUSTRALIA.

[@fedupnow61859]

Gosh can't believe that it has been 2years. Seems like yesterday. Nice job today. Maples looks great

[@sammccloud3395]

Glad you were able to go back. Awesome finds. You always find treasure when you least expect it. Thanks Brad!

[@deborahdiscenza4702]

I am so grateful for your videos. I live in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. I used to hike and really enjoyed it. I am unable to hike anymore due to undiagnosed overall pain. I enjoy seeing clips of you hiking through the forest and appreciate the historical anecdotes. (BA in history) I get thrilled every time you find something. Keep doing the great videos, they make this 60+ yo woman very happy.

[@ittybittykittymama7582]

I'm with you, sister! I'm 66 yo, married, in Knoxville, and I really feel your pain. I have dealt with the living hell of the dual diagnosis of fibromyalgia and Adult Onset Still's Disease since 1999. No more hiking for me, either, and most days I feel so bad I don't even leave the house. Thank God for guys like Brad who take us into the green and shining forest again. English major, here, but love Early American History. Be blessed, sweet Deborah. Don't give up!

[@2FunWoolyboogers]

Phyllis and I wondered if we should have taken our Metal Detector to Cancun. After getting home and watching this fantastic Memory in your life........... Next time we go we are sure we will. Thanks again for sharing a piece of your Adventure.

[@PotterCountyDiggers]

You always make great videos Brad. Love how you did the break down on your Spanish silver. I know that extra editing takes time. The little details do matter. 👍🏻😁. Kevin

[@GMMD]

Thanks Kevin!

[@toddfraisure1747]

I like seeing you are carrying a pistol to defer any threats out there. Very practical.

[@marksmallman4572]

Love your calm demenour and beautiful camera work, and of course your finds, keep moving on...

[@bethbartlett5692]

Exactly, what you said. Me too!

[@cnchess]

Your film work and edits are the best! I love the effort you put into your videos even more than watching what you dig up.

[@DoylesDigs]

Having troubles sleeping! Perfect timing to catch this early! Can’t wait to see what’s found in this one! 😁👌🏻

[@cdoggyish]

Brad, when I saw the thin brass loop, my very first thought was it was used in knitting. My Great - Grandmother used knitting tools that were almost as old as she was, she died back in mid 60's, at 92. I remember she had something like that, the flat end was inside a thinner round wooden handle, about 6-8" long I think. Couldn't tell you what she used it for, I do remember that watching her hands was amazing, they would be a blur, and she hardly watched what she did. She'd have her friends all sitting in a circle knitting, and they called it a Stitch and Bitch.

[@dogmosatchmo]

The previous property owner found lots of can slaw, and tabs. He sold the property out of frustration. Just a guess. 😉

[@ittybittykittymama7582]

Newbie here, what is "can slaw," please?

[@williammclay1406]

HI Brad, when you set out on your next dig, take a small sheet of Kitchen foil because when you find what you think is a silver coin all you need to do is Spit on the foil and rub the coin and it will show through as silver if the foil gets Hot. Nice video and finds today. all the best, Mac. england.

[@steveclark4291]

You had some nice finds ! Sure glad that you was able to come back here again . Thank you for the adventure !

[@janinebeckner5620]

So glad to see this latest edition of GMMD! Its fantastic that you were able to find out about the new owner and score permission to hunt that property again. Love all the finds, even the old cast iron, hand-forged hook and hinge. To me those are priceless because someone made them by hand. As always the beautiful scenery was thoroughly enjoyed and especially loved the aerial view of the trees with the colorful fall leaves. Hope you will be able to keep all your finds and also be able to return in the future for another hunt. GL and HH.

[@marthatripp5244]

Great video,great finds and love the drone footage. A million thumbs up!

[@GMMD]

Thanks Martha!

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Brad, I'm very glad you got access to this property again. Awesome Spanish silver and other great relics! I love old iron! Enjoyed the video!

[@discoverynorthcarolina9824]

Awesome finds my friend.... Every video is a lesson.

[@skipmaxwell6011]

Being a carpenter for 40 years, I believe the Iron object you found near the start is a tool to pull nails. Those two flanges you thought might be a delamination of the material could have acted as a way to get hold of a nail head that was flush to the wood and they couldn't get it started with either end of the tool.

[@margaretphipps2494]

Great finds Brad I love the nature you manage too capture The colours so vibrant xx🇮🇲

[@pettyeddie2000]

Good morning Brad !!! Some great finds in this video !! It was nice to see the greenery and sunshine while I'm sitting in my apartment with the outside temp of 26 degrees fahrenheit . Warmed me up for 20 mins or so. Thanks !!!!!

[@kentuckydirtfishing8947]

Great video, Brad! I love returning to sites and finding things that were missed.

[@andrewharrison4910]

Enjoyable as always Brad. Thanks for sharing.

[@scottwiseman8015]

The Quartz block just may be to assist a woman of the era, who rode side saddle, with the mounting her horse. Good call. Love the camera work, music, and your humble demeanor. Be safe out there. God bless.

[@paulstan9828]

Always look forward to your videos. Very cool.

[@jackiecavender5351]

Brad, love your music and the photography on your videos. And of course all of the interesting things you find. Thanks

[@ralphcossairt1476]

Turns out the quarts covered rock is not a treasure marker....but the beer can was...lol. Thanks, Brad, for another top-notch video. Great finds!

[@GMMD]

Ha!

[@jennshep3378]

Great video! Still finding lots of treasure and having fun. I’m so ready to see the next video so until then,happy hunting.😉

[@patrickbartholomew7351]

Best video production on KZbin

[@candice7594]

Great finds, that loop could of been for knitting, that pot hook is amazing, maybe civil war era, or older, and that Rock Wall, wow. Love the Moss. tfs

[@SueGirling68]

Hi Brad, wow what are the odds, absolutely awesome that you again found 2 Reale's. Another great day, thank you for sharing. x

[@jrsmith8161]

Love the videos I have watched every single one keep at it thanks for all the info on the finds

[@UrbanDKaye]

Great hunt, Brad! Love the Spanish silver. Funny how many holed coins still ended up in the ground.

[@jengalloway4961]

Great video. How exciting to go back there. You still found quite a bit of stuff. Perhaps you'll return again someday. I'm sure there could be some other goodies out there. Thanks for sharing

[@ddayize]

Hey Brad, first I want to say- totally enjoy Green Mountain Metal Detecting. There is always a hunt that you never forget and for me it was a spot that I just stumbled across, I do a lot of research. I noticed some shell, pottery then brick. started digging some iron and it all began. In the end it came with a bunch of firsts for me, a Chain Cent, 1688 Spanish Cobb and more. Again, love the channel and keep the passion!! Don

[@SodaCityWerx]

I love your channel, the shots of the scenery, your approach on life. You're like a country boy stuck in the north!

[@MetalMikeandPersis]

Awesome, just what I needed to end the week! Great silver finds, great video!

[@themobleys]

Thanks for the high quality content and congrats on the finds!

[@Objective-Observer]

Love. The. Music. That opening piece was amazing. oh, and the scenery. It was a challenging day for the health problems, and this was such a blessing to be in a beautiful peaceful place. Thank you for taking us with you.

[@GMMD]

Thanks so much, feel better!

[@CopperHeadsMetalDetecting]

Nice job Brad! As always great video and great finds.

[@kerrykestrowl6785]

I am so glad you took out the garage and the music is lovely

[@steveandrews4822]

For you folks talking about the hole in some coins--They were coins soldier's punched hole's in, then sewed them in the inner lining of their coats, so they didn't loose them in battle or while marching etc. The officers would put 5 dollar gold piece's in their Button's ! So you need to check the 2 piece button's that just pop apart !! This was also done during the Civil war !!

[@WendyWilliamsLiving]

Fascinating!

[@RyanGribble]

I was so excited when you pulled those reale out of the ground, I was yelling foo it up trying to help you identify it lol. And you gotta dig it all.

[@timothyarcher594]

My favourite Friday lunchtime guilty pleasure...hope you got to keep the pickaxe. Big cheers from Dorset.

[@joellacudney7394]

Whoever your camera man is does such a beautiful job of photography I just had to mention how much I enjoy your videos.

[@GMMD]

Haha no camera man, but thank you!

[@davef5277]

Outstanding finds. Beautiful country.

[@nicolasconnell6172]

Thank you for the adventures. Great find 😎😁

[@925inder2]

Really enjoyable video Brad. Repeat of Spanish silver is sweet. The pick axe is cool to find too. Congrats! ATB, Sebastian

[@MrMACHINE]

Great vid👍

[@interestingwithscott9849]

You sir are an artist. Thanks for the dig.

[@bodge6886]

That brass hinge is from a folding rule👍

[@aropals672]

More than likely it was a Lufken No.372 by the looks of the hinge. They made them since 1869 and the hinge looks to be from what was the 12 inch version. It also had a built in sliding square one side of it. Very beautiful craftsmanship back then.

[@brettjenson2588]

Your videos are always interesting to watch. Cool to see the old coins and relics

[@jalpa9642]

Brad, some great finds there definitely the other owner missed a few, maybe more...! =)

[@paulstan9828]

That thin brass piece you found that looks like a pulltab off of soda can trying to figure out what it could be. Really interesting. Definitely has a specific purpose like you said.

[@williamalvey632]

I love your videos not just your metal detecting but your wildlife as well congratulations on your finds they’re brilliant

[@user-ey9bt7fs6n]

You got to love digging in the woods. Very cool finds,

[@ErlefromVa]

Good mix of finds my friend, glad you got back into your site!

[@cathymorasch4164]

Good show, definitely doing Facebook, keep it up, still my favorite

[@heathergraff6740]

Look at all that green! It still amazes me how marked the changes are in our natural world from season to season. 🍁 ❄️🌱🌻 Another great video! I enjoy the finds that remain a mystery just as much as the coins 😊

[@ThePitt]

Awesome! GMMD Friday night video... before Netflix!

[@dankeeling1521]

Great video, nice finds 👍🏻

[@michaelguinn5736]

Great video Brad, you found things I'm interested in, old tools(pick ax), I still want to get into metal detecting, this would be another habit....but that's a good thing!!

[@gregorybarr6112]

Always captivating.... iron tools had crafted for the sake of foraging a life on the land. I had a great discovery last spring when I also unearthed a double sided pick axe! The same feeling of excitement flooded me as I watched you take the pick axe from the ground! Great coins.! I can’t wait to get the holster that I ordered for my pinpointer!

[@beepseeker]

Awesome hunt Brad! You can never have enough spanish silver😎 glad the old site is still producing. A spot is never truly hunted out...

[@mollyhollypollydolly8760]

Glad u got to go back !!

[@jeffadams7]

Amazing Brad! Green Mountain treasure

[@SuperNmolnar]

Finding silver in the mountains, very nice. Great video as always.

[@michaelolsen2348]

These videos are awesome....and also very relaxing. I've been learning alot from these.

[@emmavanursel2610]

Well, it's nice to go along metaldetecting with you :) At least that's how it feels. So thank you for that.

[@GMMD]

Glad to hear it, Emma!

[@ITechcompulock]

First find is a pot hook to suspend it over the fire. Oh yea, my dream here in south Alabama is to find Spanish gold or silver. Compass divider hinge. I've heard of .68 cal. Uh Oh, going to start digging beer cans now in case there is Spanish silver under them. Great video, you put effort into the production and it shows. ( )---------D----C Keep Swinging

[@RonJustDiggingLife]

Another great hunt! Thx for sharing

[@Aegopodium]

Back in the days women's boots were closed with tiny round buttons. To pull them through the buttonhole, they used a little hoop or hook!

[@walterzaremba3866]

That was my first thought!

[@elisabethcole2571]

It would be missing the other end then, the hook part. If it was just the loop part that would be way too big to pull a small button through the loop part.

[@Aegopodium]

@@elisabethcole2571 Do you have any other idea then? I just checked and the hooks for the Victorian shoes were tiny. So I guess you are right....but it still bugs me that I can't figure out the loops purpose.....

[@aliceb61]

@@elisabethcole2571 This is a bit of a wild, educated guess but it could be a weaving tool/needle maybe used for making rag rugs.

[@Objective-Observer]

@@aliceb61 No, ma'am. Rag rugs were wither woven on a loom, or crocheted with a large hook... very large hook, compared to the hooks they normally used.

[@brassbrad7427]

Another awesome video Brad . . . Fridays are great . . You're right about checking under cans and other garbage . . . my first token was found 7-9 inches below a 1955 licence plate. . . I picked the plate up & leaned it against a little apple tree nearby & was surprised to hear another signal . . . dug it up & voila . . . an 1837 half penny appeared . . . that was 4 years ago & this summer I dug a perfect mate to it 12 miles south of it . . . a 1837 full penny token . . . they were french & minted in Quebec . . . the une sou & the deux sou . . . awesome !!

[@johndodson4527]

Wow!.thanks again.!

[@TheFPF422]

As always, your nature shots are amazing... Thank You 🙏 🖖

Glad you enjoy them!

Super awesome video. Happy Hunting. Merry Christmas Everyone.

[@packratqueen]

Wow! Hope you can back again. That area is rich!!

[@ChillBill1]

Beautiful, beautiful video.

[@ClaytonCountyHistoryHound]

Another great episode. Thanks for sharing your adventure, hunt and finds. That's alot of silver for one area. The people had lots of money or had a business. Amazing relics. That iron hanger was a very cool find and will be great for your displays. Thanks again. Happy hunting, good luck and take care.

[@donnamartin8227]

Ladies boots had round buttons sometimes. I love that you show natural things as you explore.

[@deadinteresting8905]

would love to see how you display your finds at home :D

[@AbeSandyWX]

Been wondering the same thing

[@jimnorthland2903]

I'd love to pay a visit to your mountains!

[@smokenjoe1194]

Luv you videos. You have the best photography and videos of any metal detecting videos. Your equipment must be professional. Keep them coming and thanks for all that you do. Best of luck. Keep dign.

[@respectanimals2]

Awesome finds , enjoyed the video , fantastic ⛏😎

[@LIBERTYVIEWS]

First time viewer....FANTASTIC photography and love the music!!

[@GMMD]

Thanks for watching!

[@jerrydineen2827]

Congratulation Brad, that silver was a nice find!

[@joyceclark8476]

Hello Brad, another great video. Second trip and WOW two more Spanish coins! Spectacular! Destiny is dancing in your favor! The pick axe brought memories of my Dad working his land here in Connecticut. He even built his own stone wall in 1965 from all the rocks he dug up with his pick axe. Wall still there where my Mom still lives. Always will be. Great filming as usual. Your the best! My best to Becca and Bentley. Later...Joyce. West Haven, Connecticut, U.S.A.🇺🇸. ARROW *🎱

[@jeffbonadurer3147]

Another super awesome video Brad. Some interesting finds. The small brass loop must've been a specialty tool of some kind. New camera? (great color and focus).Merry Christmas to you and your family. Safe and happy holidays. Jeff in Oregon.

[@brianzl1]

Another great video Brad. Love the background music. May you and your family have a great Christmas. From New Zealand.
