Unforgotten - Metal Detecting a 1700’s Farm with an American Revolutionary War Soldier Buried Nearby

[@chopchung]

That King George II coin. Made over here in England right back in the 1750's went through many British hands,travelled 3000 miles across the Atlantic to British America,went through many American hands,fell into the earth where it slept and WAITED for these lads to find it in 2021.Amazing.

[@karenfinkelstein3594]

Well said! You truly captured the significance of it.

[@tylerjones2695]

Yeah I would be thrilled to find something like that

[@tedlawrence4189]

Chopchung: looks like it had may 25 years of wear on it. If so,then probably dropped,during Revolutionary War! First usa coins 1793.

The same year Congress was invented to manage the bankruptcy. 1793 was when George Wurshington surrendered the military, and police are military, over to Congress.

Glad to see people are still detecting. I retired from it back about 2009. I started in 1967. Coins and gold rings were all the rage in my day and we found them big-time. But today the "thing" is dug relics, toys, the nastier condition...the better. We now have the giant "restoration" movement. One can find many videos online. I could kick myself for all the baskets full of rusty goodies I threw away in years past. Back then, those bent-up and horribly rusty trucks were considered worthless. Not today!

I like you, Dale! Thanks for sharing. My dad took us to the deserts and canyons to hunt for old things when we were kids growing up.

[@peggyhiggins1069]

I love you guys! It is not just the vids, the finds, the laughter, the camaraderie but how respectful you are. Some would detect in a cemetery. Thank you for stating “it is sacred ground” and not showing the names! You are a class act!

Thank you Peggy! I really appreciate the kind words.

[@nancystevens7447]

I grew up near a house built around 1730’s,it had a small burial spot with a grave of a Revolutionary Soldier killed in the war. Fascinated me and wish I knew more about him…..Made our early history very present..

[@TastemyAtrocity]

The “spectacles” find was so cool. There’s something so fascinating about finding relics from the past at the same sight which they were lost. Like a small connection to the people who came before us. Reminding us they were not so different. Well done 👍

[@wayneveck4593]

I wondered if they belonged to the soldier

[@JohnAllen-gg1oz]

Yes, everytime I find a old relic or coin I wonder who was the last one to touch that thing before I touched it. Sometimes I get carried away and wonder what they looked like, when they were born and when they died.

[@michaeldicarlo5540]

I think it's amazing that for over 200 years those coins literally sat 4 or 5 inches below the grass without anyone disturbing it

Whenever I dig at parks or on folks lawns (with permission of course), I always bring a 3' sq. piece of canvas to put the dirt on to keep things neat after the refill. I've found some interesting things over the years. The best was at Will Rogers state beach, in LA, Found a HUGE man's 18K "nugget" ring that's 1.35 oz! (No name or other info in or on it to try to track down the owner). A few weeks later I was there and saw these women in a panic near the waters edge. I inquired if everything was OK and one of them said her sister had come for a visit from Saudi Arabia and had lost her engagement ring in the sand. She asked if I could help and I found it in about 5 min. with my trusty old Compass X-100. They offered to give me a LARGE reward for finding it, but I just said have a nice day ladies and wished them well. (That solitaire had to be 4 or 5 carets, must have cost a fortune.)

[@salliegiocondo1738]

One of the things I really like the most about you Mr. Quarter Hoarder is your enthusiasm and the way you always give the guys that are with you nice compliments and you never make them feel less knowledgeable than yourself. And one more final thing and this one is very important to me…..You and your friends are very respectful of all properties whether you’re out in the middle of an abandoned field or digging in someone’s yard who has given you permission to see what treasures you might uncover. And it’s so nice not to be concerned if my grandkids come into the room when your show is on. You never curse or take our Lords name in vain. That means so much to me that they can watch decent fun loving kind men on KZbin and really enjoy themselves at 12-15 years old. I’ve had to stop watching many KZbin programs because of the disgusting language and the pathetic girlfriends and wives that hang around the cameras half dressed with their boobs and butts hanging out. They have no shame and no sense of right and wrong. So there now you’ve heard my biggest KZbin gripes. Again thank you for your goodness and may God bless you and yours. Merry Christmas.🎄✝️♥️

[@christyinthecarolinas]

I love those spectacles!!! I love personal items like that. How freaking cool and the fact it's from the 1700s? Wow! That's so awesome

[@marvmattison5248]

Yeah just think someone maybe had those glasses folded up and in his shirt or coat pocket got off of his horse and the glasses fell out, while he or she was visiting the cemetery . Maybe brought their glasses along just so they could read the tombstones...

[@Wotan-Mit-Uns]

The gravestone of the Revolutionary War soldier written in German was amazing! When I was about 11 or 12 I found a very old tombstone that was cracked in half and very weathered that was written in German and from the late 1700's. I believe it said that the German couple buried there were royalty of some kind, because I saw the word "Herzog" before their names which translates to duke and their surname was prefixed with "Von". I went back years later when I was a teenager and had a year of German under my belt, but I could not find the tombstone anywhere! I was so disappointed and it still bothers me to this very day that the German couple buried there are now lost to history. I've tried researching the little cemetery in the local small town library but could find absolutely ZERO information.

That ring and loop went onto one end of a spreader bar (there was one on each end), which attached to a horse's harness. I used to work with teams of 2 mules, and there was a pulley between the two spreaders, which equalized the load. Attached to the pulley was the lead line to the boat.

Hello Guys, Just discovered your videos about 2 days ago, & have been nearly "binge-watching" 'em ever since!!! I am ENJOYING THE TAR out of them, & I can hardly get over the AWESOME finds that y'all have been blessed with!!! I can seriously say, that you guys have had greater finds, than any of the other "Metal Detector Hunters" that I've watched so far, here on KZbin!!! I've been VERY inspired to wanna buy myself a Metal Detector/Pinpointer Kit, and try to do some "hunting" myself, around my area here, in Abilene, TX. I know I would enjoy it, whether I got the greatest finds or not!! Just the anticipation of getting a few good finds, would satisfy me!!! 😊 However; I've not been able to work in quite awhile, due to problems with Arthritis, in my knees and neck, and have not yet been able to get disability, do my GF's disability income is all we have to live on, though we do make it every month, with just a little bit to spare. Anyway, if we get another Stimulus, and I get the full amount, I just may buy some gear, as long as I feel that I can afford to do so! Keep up the great hunts, & I will continue to watch out for ALL forthcoming videos!! Best Wishes, & God Bless Y'all! Ron H. Abilene, TX.
