Metal detecting an 1861 house in its process of demolition and reconstruction this week. We weren't sure exactly how the finds would be since there were construction trucks, giant trash dumpsters, and dubree scattered all around, but the prospect of finding some original pieces from when the house was first built was too much to pass up. Even though the forecast was calling for pouring rain turning to snow; Kyle, Doug, and I arrived early and detected 'til the sun went down. Awesome day filled with some great finds, great fun, and great friends.

If you're interested in trying the 2019 Wheat Penny challenge here's a link to the Warman's book. I think it's only $5 and covered all the wheat years.

"911 what's your emergency?" " I want to report an escaped inmate! " " He's dressed in an orange jumpsuit and seems to be digging in a yard. " " He has two shady looking guys with him and I think they are digging up their stolen loot. " Good hunt guys.

Calculator assessment-- Jason: "I don't think it's going to work anymore." Kyle: "Oh, a little polish..." LOL! You guys are a hoot! Love the Coca Cola opener!!! And the silver thimble and silver top to a woman's dressing table box. It looks like the initials "J. W." and that design is circa 1880-1890, beautiful! Great finds! And Doug, the man of the hour! Definitely a KGI by the right-facing and shape of the profile and hair wreath, wow!!! And a gorgeous "shooter" into the bargain! Really cool relics, coins, artifacts, et al. Well done, guys!!!
@judithyoungquist8409 5 years ago

Absolutely love your show! Really look forward to it!! Thank you!
@DigginWithDeej 5 years ago

Way to hang in there guys! I see so many people give up when a site doesn't produce some aged relics & coins right from the start. You guys all stuck it out! Good job! A realistic hunt!
@audreyharrod 5 years ago

I love your channel. Y’all make me giggle all the time. And that piece of silver with the monogramming on it is wonderful!!!!😊
@bigfootdancer3135 5 years ago

You may have heard this before but the best thing about this channel is how you manage to make even less desirable finds seem exciting. I often turn off the sound when watching detecting videos just to see the items, where here the dialogue is often the highlight. At least that's my two-cents. Keep it up as I always look forward to watching (and listening)
@sadiewagnerful 5 years ago

I always have an old mason jar that I put all of my broken semi significant finds in, it’s still worth saving and when full goes on a shelf in the garage
