[@edwardbatchelder2842]

THAT IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FINDING THE OTHER STIRRUP! THAT IS ONE IN A MILLION FIND! YOU MUST THINK OF THE SCENARIO AT WHICH HAD TO BE POSSIBLE FOR THIS TO HAVE HAPPENED? JUST AMAZING!!!

[@charleswilson9480]

It looks like the devil or a Baphomet .. evil ., it’s not purity cool too me .. I’d be freaked out over it and leave ..

[@jackthecanuck6736]

If Chris was able to keep the stirrups, I would love to see a picture of the matching pair cleaned up.

[@davettasheppard7636]

Your videos just keep getting better and better.... Chris is a keeper! J&D

[@MrWharfrat05]

Never heard of a saw pit. Amazing. Thanks for all these little jewels you throw in :)

[@Mantreaus]

That tree burl reminds me of Pan from the Greek stories, and he played the flute. Maybe the owner of the large harmonica and Pan had some wild times up there in the woods, playing some music and dancing around drinking cider and mulled wine. I def would make sure that the tree is well taken care of. That is nature's art with a side of weirdness just because it can.

[@Ethan.s..]

If it resembled Jesus it would gain a international following.

[@degenerati]

Satyrs are real. I saw one on a Bigfoot channel recently, and it definitely took me awhile to actually figure out what I was looking at. Sounds crazy, I know...

[@gutfinski]

I like the the idea of your bringing the items to the landowner. That, and picking up trash, are what gets us invited back!

[@zw5509]

Need the Chigg to give the bullet information. I like the idea it was used as a game piece. The elephant head mark had a makers name below. Nice stirrups too! Make a great craft item. Great Bofus too! He'll enjoy the cellar, tough omnivores!

[@havardmoen6423]

Wanna see the stirrups all cleaned up! :)

[@roy8460]

Me too," on the Stirrups !!!

[@susanpohlers2638]

I think bringing Chris along is lucky! Imagine the poor person who lost those beautiful stirrups - they were probably expensive! They are definitely my favorite find of this video. And that big toad was awesome! Thanks again for taking us along on your adventures.

[@melinda6024]

I loved seeing the little red newt..........thanx

[@kevinthompson5827]

Brad and Chris there is an old saying that even a bad day of fishing is a much better day than being at work. So I'm pretty sure that you could apply it to metal detecting to. I really look forward to seeing you out and about, thanks.

[@audreymuzingo933]

DEFINITELY. I make my living buying and selling antiques and collectibles including coins, and as a single mom with no other income I basically have to hustle every waking hour. Even when I grant myself 'down' time I can't relax enough to just watch a movie or something; I feel a constant need to seek desirable objects. If I'm sick of making Ebay listings or I just finished a big reorganizing effort or something like that, if it's late at night I go through whatever recent pocket change or bank rolls I have, to look for errors and whatever.....but if it's daytime, baby I'm hopping in the car with Holmes and Watson (detecter and pinpointer)! I rarely find anything remotely good (Mercury dimes are the very best so far), but just the chance of a great discovery is compelling enough, and it is SOOOOOO fun and meditative.

[@preserving_the_past]

Great video Brad and Chris. The stirrup finds were awesome. Thanks for sharing. Until next time. *Chris*

[@kayesdigginit1519]

The pair of silver plated matching stirrups OMG too cool Chris, Congrats man!! 😀 You were on it!! The huge double reeded harmonica reed, the 1st one I've ever seen. 😳👍 Brad that gold gilded eagle button. 🎉 3 great old pennies that you found; the coin purse part, both of you finding spoons. An all-around great hunting day out. I think we're all interested to know what the land owner let you 2 keep BTW ☺

[@felicialewis860]

Yes I totally agree great finds.

[@karlasheives2865]

Toad love ❤❤❤ great finds! Thanks for taking us along!

[@marcgendron6745]

Spirits of the woods their eye's are upon us, as they are frozen in time. Nice hunt guy's 🇺🇸

[@raindropsfukushemiaflavore9914]

I was kinda thinking that too.

[@stantilton2191]

Hey, great finds in a beautiful location. Thanks for taking us along.

[@camillefulton7709]

HEY YOU GUYS, THANKS FOR ANOTHER GREAT ADVENTURE WITH YOU, NICE FINDS, YOUR BEAUTIFUL WOODS....GREAT 💜 CAMILLE 🇦🇺

[@coasthome8356]

I’m glad you heard me when I told you that was a purse. Lol Yes, I talk to the screen. So what?! 😎

[@glenlee9537]

As always Brad, excellent presentation of television quality. A great start to my day

[@DirtFishMish]

Have I mentioned I love your videography? Because I love your videography! I love that I can hear all the ambient noises clearly and also your peaceful approach to presenting these hunts. Your channel continues to inspire my own growth as a newbie KZbinr. That's an interesting discussion re: spirits! I'd like to think that if that were the case, we were honouring their memory by cherishing their items once more before they are lost to the earth. Love the elephant spoon. Happy hunting. :)

[@HokieJuju]

DirtFishMish I totally agree. He has the best videography I've seen on KZbin!! I love his calm nature (I'd be flipping out with excitement at some of his finds!) and his knowledge of what everything is!!! He's incredibly smart & u can tell he's studied up and knows his his history which is another thing I love about him. My favorite thing about this channel is that Brad always learns the history of the area he's going to hunt & lays that out to the viewers which is so cool!!!! This is definitely one of my favorite channels!!!

[@DirtFishMish]

Julianne Harris yes, the story-telling aspect is so great. I’m in Australia, so my knowledge of US history isn’t great (Australian coins are my thing!). I love learning about the history of US currency in particular through these episodes, but as always with detecting, you never know what a day will bring and some of the surprise finds are equally amazing. 😊

[@patprop74]

7:00 i was once detecting in a nearby forest, and one particular patch of the forest lots of tree's had inclusions on the bark in the shapes of an eye, it was really bizarre i had never seen that before let alone so many of them, im sure i have photos of it somewhere if anyone's interested I can post them on Instagram for a few day.

[@raindropsfukushemiaflavore9914]

I would like to see that.

[@nhcheyenne7919]

Yes!

[@reedsartofadventure]

Wow, that was one hell of a good hunt. The fact that Chris found both sturips was a streak of luck that never happens to me 👍😎👍

[@dwightpickens2895]

Another great video 📹 nice finds

[@ronniecardy]

Some interesting finds 🤔 I love the place you go to

[@The-skillschool]

Great adventure guys keep them coming. Hope Chris gets his horse soon 👍

[@vickiestevens1699]

Brad. Love your adventures. Please try to keep the items more still when viewing; I get kinda dizzy. But you’re the best. Love your family values and the friends you bring along. I would like to see your collection all cleaned up. Those drawers must be full of good stuff. 😆

[@tincuptimmetaldetecting9259]

Great finds guy's congrats!! Awesome stirrups Chris!! Thanks for sharing the hunt Brad. Stay safe. GL&HH!

[@GreeneGene33]

Metal detecting is a fun and adventurous hobby, My husband and I have found many interesting trinkets and valuables over the years. along with many natural metals, coins etc.....Great pastime plus you get exercise and fresh air along with a s brief flash of time travel.....

[@rogerdempsey7227]

Awesome day for you guys stay blessed and see you again on the next episode 👍

[@joanhamilton2651]

Definitely go back and take Chris and his lucky shirt. Fantastic day!

[@ClaytonCountyHistoryHound]

[@littleSallyJo]

Such a happy thing that Chris returned to Vermont--you guys have such a good time together! Great & unique finds today. Be sure to let us know what kind of horse Chris gets!! Ha!

[@charleshbintliff9249]

Awesome search Brad and Chris are the best. A few Ruby's placed on the stirrups will improve the overall bling. Thanks guys be well and safe. Chuck in NJ

[@raindropsfukushemiaflavore9914]

If not Ruby's then the garnets that they found 😂😂

[@stormygcannon1229]

Awesome finds and great vid. Love the way you allow us in on your Adventures. Hope you & Chris were able to keep what you found. A lot fun finding them.

[@jengalloway4961]

Wow, stellar day guys! I definitely want to see the stirrups cleaned up if you get to keep them.. Nice lucky shirt....I wore mine today.

[@ericday604]

Great adventure friends!! Thanks for bring us along!!

[@scotttrent9348]

Busy Friday morning here! Had to push pause on the " Honeydo's " and have a second cup of coffee and big breakfast with GMMD!! Thanks for taking us with you!!!

[@kimberlyclark4508]

Have you ever heard that the burhl wood is worth a lot, because of its uniqueness?? Be safe, i hope you find some extra special finds!! Much love for yours and Chris's families!!💜

[@Watcherrye]

Great pics. Wish I was with you guys, I love this kind of thing. Absolutely beautiful there, and have never been....LOL thanks again.

[@giaatta9303]

Fantastic. The cinematography is the caliber of professional film makers. Love the still shots!

[@steevcee8908]

Some seriously great finds!! To find both stirrups of that quality is just amazing! I would have been happy with any single find from that day

[@Carolbearce]

Nice finds. Beautiful countryside.

[@raindropsfukushemiaflavore9914]

That was great. Love the stirrups. Hope you got to keep everything. Also that face in the tree was awesome. Always look forward to your new show/video's.

[@viennesetreasuresmudlarkin5967]

your videos are definitely among my favorites! thanks for the joy :)

[@Whocares.........]

Thanks Brad, well done!

[@rikspector]

Brad, Ram Horns!! The Devil you say:) I've traveled all over the country and have been more concerned about people than spirits or animals, perhaps Bears or Coyotes and lions and tigers, oh my, are an exception. Sorry, I got a bit carried away👀 There is so much history hiding beneath the soil,but your research brings them to light. Another fun adventure. Thank you both, Cheers, Rik

[@MikeMcInroe]

Another awesome video Brad. Thanks for posting and as always I look forward to more!

[@DigginWithDeej]

Congratulations Chris on the stirrups & huge harmonica Reed. Love the ornate spoon, bullet and eagle button Brad

[@inasmith3538]

The scenery is awsome in your videos. Some of these scenes should be on jigsaw puzzles. Thanks for taking us along with you.

[@richardrollins184]

Love the nature you show.

[@carolcrain6839]

Again, great finds! lts like a history lesson. Love it.

[@wildcolonialboydetecting8335]

Good hunt in the back country. Glad your back guys.

[@erikwignes7777]

Great day in the Woods!!

[@felicialewis860]

You both did great wow the mans face on the tree is so perfect almost looked real that frog was looking at you both like you were from outer space 😄I haven't seen stirrups like those before(the matching pair) bet they were really nice when they were new, those coins were a good find and the huge harmonica piece never seen one that big before .I've seen that lion symbol on antique dishes from England, interesting about the saw pit I have an antique two handled saw overall I think the both of you did fantastic. I really enjoyed the video very much.Thankyou😊🐓🐎🐄

[@davelamb3303]

Sweet hunt, I had never seen a flying eagle cent ... sweet! Nice day out in nature, cheers.

[@roxannaweaver2155]

Lots of great stuff here. I like the stirrups for sure. The shot of the large white mushroom would make a great still photo for a show of your own photography work. You do some great camera work. Thanks for all the effort you put in.

[@docholliday5439]

What the HELL!!! There should be more 👍 on these video's... Brad I look forward to each one of your video's! A BIG FAN here in 🌵 Phoenix, Arizona 🌵😎 🙋 😷 🙌 "I'm your huckleberry!"

[@arpeggio63]

Thanks again Brad . another great video !

[@cindyseverson9876]

In the Native American culture a person asks the spirits for permission in enter the property and then thank the spirits when you leave. They also leaving an offering such as tobacco to thank the spirits. “Or” leave something of your self such as a good spit of saliva! Good finds today!, Cindy🌸🌸🌸

[@coloringwithd]

Again, another beautifully filmed video. I love how you capture the landscape. I didn't know mushrooms came is such a fiery orange. Thank you so much for sharing ♥♥♥

[@MrTom423]

I love these forest videos and the bullet WOW! I loved detecting the forest even more tho Lol.. Great channel and videos 👍🏻 I kept waiting on that tree to Talk to us.

[@caryskaar4444]

The projectile is a Mini ball from the Civil War period, most likely 58 caliber..

[@scottcarter90]

Great hunt! I have yet to find a stirrup. Very cool!

[@elizabethchevalier7740]

Giddy-up Chris!

[@SmallWonda]

What great finds! I would have loved to have dug those stirrups - be interested to see them cleaned up, amazing! I thought the saw pit interesting, I can't remember you mentioning them before. Can't say I've seen anyone find a bullet quite like that one - Beau would know. Keep safe have fun! 🙏🐾🦘👍

[@Rustybucket303]

Awesome finds guy's keep up the hunt.

[@steveclark4291]

Thank you for the adventure and seeing some nice finds ! Take care , stay safe and healthy wherever your next adventure takes you ! Doing well here in Kansas .

[@Chef_D]

Great video! Beautiful mushroom species in your area. Happy Hunting🇨🇦😁

[@susanjames2994]

Wondered where this was going. Someone living in an enchanted forest, a frog, horse riding person, tree spirits. Sounds like a fairy tale in the making

[@mattvermont7994]

Hi Brad, The bullet you found is a .58 caliber 3-Ringer or Minie Ball that was used during the Civil War in Springfield Rifles. What's interesting about yours is that it was pulled from a rifle unfired using a worm type puller. That is why it has that ringed groove at the point. The puller resembles a corkscrew and wraps around the bullet cutting that groove in it so it can grip and the bullet pulls out easily. Even more interesting is the question of, were there Union Soldiers in that area during the war? Those rifles were used for sometime after the war, and many were converted to the Trapdoor single shot cartridge style later in life. I doubt they were sold off as surplus until the late 1800's or early 1900's. So it was either a Soldier in the war that unloaded there (due to the rifle refusing to fire, or it was removed by a hunter later in history for the same reason.

[@digrdug6121]

The nub tip on the 3 ringer is either from the mold and was never clipped off. Or to tie string around for use as a sinker

[@olajackson757]

Chris... what's that old saying ? "Gotta see a man about a horse " . Congrats on the find.

[@greenmtroamer33]

Just found your channel guys thanks for the great content!! I’m a Vermonter my self and love the history of our great state!

[@memorylaine]

Wow Chris found 2 matching stirrups, Would love to see them cleaned up. Brad as always, your videos make my day. Love all the different plants and fungi. Love the coins. I would have to go back to that road, that's where we have found our best arrow heads on washed out roads, some just laying on top. so cool! Thank you for another great video. BTW Bentley would've loved that huge toad!

[@dannyfournier9052]

Took up metal detecting this spring. It’s been an adventure so far. You’re channels was one of the first I discovered, and you do an amazing job with your videos, research, and adventures you take us all on. Just finished binging all of your videos, finally caught up. Look forward to more Degrau. Cheers from Calgary, Alberta

[@baystateplugflipper7061]

Nice job boys!!!!!!

[@deborahbradshaw6370]

Loved the finds!

[@tradizione100]

Good work boys👏👍

[@scottmeacham1738]

Great video and some great finds! I really appreciate the bits of trivial knowledge you drop in your videos! Thanks for sharing your adventure with us!

[@christinerobinette7262]

I love your detecting techniques, & the raw emotion you display in honoring the past lives. Also the shots of lizards, toads, face trees! You’re an enthusiast after my own heart! Love how you protect the earth & your love of nature! Congrats today, I always enjoy walking in the woods along with you! That was my nickname as a childhood spent in northern Michigan, hence “ child of the woods”! Stay safe !

[@patrickstewartsoutdooradve7632]

The minnie’ ball looks like a 58 caliber and I have never seen one “wormed” like that. I think they carved it. It may have been cast and still had the blob on top and they just carved on it being bored. Idk..love your videos

[@skybarnum9859]

Yea, the ring on it isn't from a worm or puller, nor is it a spru from the mold. I shoot black powder and cast all my own balls. That mini ball was carved like that. Who knows why, but it was carved.

[@jalpa9642]

Brad, if you know of the "Aquachigger" he's from MD., he finds tons of those 3 ring Civil War Bullets, dropped ones and fired ones, he could tell ya which one you found. He's on YT under that name above look him up and ask..? =)

[@selzasteve837]

Love the Chigg. His awesome 😎

[@pirunha]

yes Bo "Aquachigger" could tell you in a instant about the three ringed bullet

[@davestelling]

Everyone loves the Chiggster!

[@goodpplz123]

I always love your videos. I only wished you made more. Maybe live streams or videos explaining how the detectors work. For instance, you say I have an 83 on the target. It would help new people understand the equipment better or videos on the different brands . Keep up the great content. 😎
