Out of all of the other people with metal detector channels on UTube you’re the best because everything you find is believable. The respect you pay to everything you find, especially the graves, is the reason you’re welcomed to many private properties I think. This was another great Friday morning to drink my coffee with.

More than anything, I appreciate your integrity.
It is your character, your respect for landowners and the former residents of the land you detect that makes your channel the best!

And history.😊
It is wonderful that the grave stones survived to read names, etc.

WOW SUCH A FIND " SLAVERY COIN" A HORROR OF THE TIME BROUGHT TO LIGHT .
Thank you, Brad, I have found pioneer cemeteries while cutting firewood. I also informed the land owner so he could look for it. Now, it has been cleaned up a registered.
My heart goes out to whoever lost their children. I feel a lot of compassion for them and the children.
it’s amazing to think that those gleaming white grave stones have quietly sat in that forest for almost 200 yrs with only animals as a witness. so many countless seasons have passed and they still stand, almost defiantly against mother natures pull to reclaim them. ❤
Thumbs up for the respect for the gravesite and the homeowner's privacy. Love your channel Brad, keep up the good work.
When I was a kid I played with whizzer buttons 🤭. John Yates was a metalsmith in Birmingham England who fashioned ladles,spoons and other flatware from pewter and silver plate in the early 1800s....his sons continued the business thru the 1870/80s. As always I enjoy your videos,thanks
That was actually really cool of you to move away from the grave site. Out of respect you may have given up detecting something crazy to let whoever they were rest peacefully. That's awesome man. And as soon as I saw that one counterfeit with the holes, I knew immediately it was a whizzer. That's cool. I'd love to find one of those.
Respect for the families that lived there. Not only the joys of living but the suffering and loss of children. Hard times in those days
Coffee with Brad on Friday morning. What a way to start the day. As always Brad a very enjoyable video. I have the utmost respect for you for keeping the privacy of the landowner and the name of the tombstone that just shows the character that is in your makeup as a honest person. Made God always bless you and your family. Thanks again for a very enjoyable Friday morning.
Thank you for your respect for nature. You always seem very careful when you dig.
My Fridays dose of Treasure hunting, thanks for your Videos, have a great Weekend
Good morning. Cold and cold here. Not making my hands happy. Glad you stumbled onto those markers. It's important to know where ancestors are buried.
Secret Service still investigates counterfeit money today.
I wanted to add that we had a old saddle that had a few decorative oval silver plated pieces. The center had a square area that two pieces of leather came thru and a large knot was tied and it had about 4 inches of leather strings hanging down and it made it look very decorative. I enjoy every one of your videos and can’t wait for Friday. I would love to see some of your collections at some point. I learn so much from you and appreciate all your work.

Same here. It looked like a concho for horse tack to me. @@airdrop1670
I like to imagine people's stories and histories as well. Love your vids, always sad when the Friday's vid is over, but I know there'll be another next week. See you then, Brad.
You have probably already looked it up, but that token is from Barbados (as it suggests) and has an interesting bit of history. 1830, pretty cool find in the woods of Vermont.
Awesome way to start a friday morning
I agree with Yvonne. I have found most metal detecting shows dis-interesting and or appear seeded or staged sometimes scripted almost. Rarely been able to watch most of the other shows through to the Finnish. Yet I nearly get anxious to see green mountain turn up on my rotation each week. He somehow keeps each show real and fun to watch.
Hi Brad ,hat's off to you for the respect for the land owner and the decest. Class act 👍
I would never show the names either. Pure respect. Thank you for that.
I don’t think the counterfeit coin is a wizzer. For it to be a wizzer. The holes need to be in the center of the coin to create the centrifugal force to wiz. Great hunt!
Great hunt as usual, really enjoyed the video. 🇺🇸
I would love to see a video of the research you have done on the many finds you said I will have to research. We love coffee with you on Fridays!

The video could include Brad's most interesting and favorite finds.
Some great finds. Sure is a great way to start my day. Thank you for sharing.
Having spent countless times hiking off trails, I’ve found numerous homestead sights with family graveyards. I was stunned at how many children were there. ☹️
Wow! Those could have been the children that played with the whizzer😮. The spoon was no doubt coin silver. Love your videos- Thank you from an ex-New Englander😢
those little brass pieces look like a saddle endornment that a leather tassle would come thrue
Great way to start my morning 😊
Great video, as usual! The spoon handle is from what we (in England) call pewter spoons. They are 19th century and a common find here. As you have seen they had the makers marks added in the style of hallmarks.
My daughter and I found a GRAVE in a FLORIDA ORANGE ORCHARD back in the ‘70s ! We were picking oranges 🍊! (we were migrant workers) THE HEAD STONE was turned over so she and I stood it back up ! Don’t remember the the name of the person on head stone my daughter said a woman was laid to rest there in the early 1800’s! We got rocks to help stabilize the grave stone! And said a prayer 🙏 of course ! Ya never know what is in your life path that needs your help and support! I loved metal detecting and still have mine ! It’s old and so am I (well into my 80s ) I love watching your videos ,brings back so meany memories of wonderful days hunting who knows what 🙀👵🏻😱❤️🙏👍
Crazy that a penny was so valuable that it was worth the time and materials to counterfeit!
Thank you so much for the respect, both for the living and those have gone before ❤
Wow great digs. I am happy you dont disturb the gravesites. I admire that about you, and also you give respect and privacy to the landowners as well. Have a wonderful fall weekend.👍😘
It makes GREAT SENSE you are respecting privacy of whoever is buried there as well as home owner❤
Always enjoy listening to the possible story that a find may have. ❤️
Thank you Brad for the adventure , seeing beautiful scenery and some amazing finds !
Happy Friday. Enjoy your videos.
Another very nice video. I appreciate your expertise in videography, history, and enjoy the results of your investigation that you include in the videos.
I love you for the respect you have for others. Graves, families, land owners,... The world needs more of that.
Another great video, Brad.
Excellent video, as always! The counterfeit coin in particular was interesting; I've seen a couple of UK videos where counterfeit Roman coins (usually bronze washed with silver) were found. Not sure whether or not that was a 'whizzer'-- my mama taught me how to make one as a kid and was very specific about them having to have the holes close to the center (I used an old coat button, very large.) I wondered, though, if somebody might've used it to mend something that needed a piece of metal-- maybe to cover a hole or gap?
Cool finds Brad! Keep on digging. 😊
The bell and the wizzar is super cool, too.
Brad, would be great to hear what you uncover in your research! ❤️
Late dinner with Brad. You find the coolest items. Thankyou for your very pleasent attitude. Happy detecting!
Thank you for respecting the landowner. Not everyone would allow you access to their land.
Once again ❤, thank you for respecting the grave sites . One of the many reasons you are the best .
Collecting civil war era patriotic tokens and store cards is one of my hobbies, but this one wasn't in the FULD book. How cool! With a little more digging it turns out it's a half-penny trade token issued by Moses Tolano, circa 1850. "Tolanto" was apparently a misspelling on the die, as records indicate a merchant in Bridgetown, Barbados named Moses Tolano was buried there on May 30, 1852. (Source: Museums Victoria Collection, Melbourne, AU).
Love your videos and would love to see some of your finds all cleaned up and displayed. Would be an interesting video.
Congratulations Brad on your finds always a pleasure to watch .Great that you show respect to the land owners as well as the people who were laid to rest . Ty again for Sharing
great stuff thanks
another great show
Hello from Australia 😊Love watching your videos each week Saturday mornings with my cup of coffee. Thank you
The counterfeit coin is my favorite find of the day. 👍
can't beleave i have watching your videos for a year now . love it
Thank you -thank you , I watch for Friday and Green Mountain detecting
Totally agree don’t give names of the dead , cool finds though
Good morning from Copperhill Tn.
Nicely done Brad. Always love the footage of the forest floor.
Love your respect and integrity! Bravo!
I really enjoy your show for the finds you make but also for the beautiful photography shots you make of the nature around you. Thank you
You’re channel is awesome. Look forward to Friday’s always. Nice job always Brad
Great Hunt Brad. Love all your Relics you found. The Token is very interesting nice find there. Congrats on the Copper and Counterfeit Copper made into a Wizzer. I love the way you respect other people's properties and the respect when you come across a grave. Very cool. Take Care Brad
Ever noticed that no one ever really finds a lot of blacksmith tools, and you know that pretty much everyone had to have some of their own tools used for shoeing either oxen, or horses. Simply for the fact that they were so far away from town to make it peactical to take livestock in everytime one lost a shoe. I understand that oxen are particularly difficult to shoe, because the animal has to be physically lifte high enough to tend their hoofs, because bovine cannot support themselves very well for any length of time on three legs. Figure that they even had need to make some repairs on farm implements themselves versus carrying everything in to the nearest town that had a blacksmith. Which by walking beside your livestock themselves, are pulling a cart or wagon could take many days to reach there and back home again. Granted not everyone had the capability to do such things, but enough did that there should be more of these types of tools found I'd think. That and I'm sure that there may have been a few that traveled around plying their trade, but it's not something that I have heard of any great number of those actually doing this. That and the fact that the tools such as anvils, and forges were quiet heavy to be loading and unloading off a wagon regularly. Just something that I've noticed about metal detecting home places. But have actually seen old home places that actually had pretty much everything needed to do such things themselves, that had been abandoned for whatever reason. Granted these are typically depression Era home sites, where it honestly looks like they left majority of their possessions behind when they pulled out.
Another great video Brad!!! That token is an amazing piece of the past
Love the counterfeit coin ❤ I have found a few on the Cape at one of my sites. Great vid as always 👌 HH and take care 😊
I applaud your courtesy, respect and decorum
Another great video bro. You've become part of my Friday ritual
Great show, see you next friday
Brad congratulations 👏👏👏 on your finds I hope you share with us the information on the mystery coin soon ♥️♥️♥️⚒️🇺🇸🗝️
I like your style laid back but still get excited enough but not to freak out your Kool love your show so i watch it thanks for sharing you explore and explain well thank you 😊
Excellent place to detect. Respect all around. It nust have been devastating to the people of the time to lose their children 😢
That was an awesome video today Brad you did a great job and keep up the great work and can't wait to see more videos soon.
Nice work Brad!!
Wow! Looks like you found my spoon handle! 😊
Thank you for respecting the cemeteries. Even if it's one or two buriels.
Awesome hunt Brad!🙂
Great hunt n awesome finds buddy God Bless and happy dirt fishing
Your videos are such a great way to escape from the ways of the world right now, thank you.
Great video as always. The only string instrument part I've ever found was a few tuning pegs that were brass, probably from a fiddle.
Nice group of finds. Looking forward to seeing that token all clean up.
love your soundtracks and your vids. keep up🙂
all good so many nice finds
Sweet Digs Brad.
On the spoon handle with the hallmark, there's quite a few john yates in England and they were making things from around 1780
Love your channel and really like the way you conduct yourself. Would you ever consider doing a video of just your displays of the objects you've found?
I always enjoy your videos. Today I needed the distraction, so thank you.
Awesome finds!
Brad the Cooper coin continuity ringing 99 may also be where the copper was mined from and Alloyed with. The last possibility is that the Smelting pots that were used may have had Silver left in them that wasn't cleaned out this can also go for Gold and Platinum Sir, good day.
The "counterfeit" may have been an 1800s game token. They were tokens that looked similar to actual coins at the rime, but they were not exact copies.
Hi Brad. My Fridays are always better when finding your video. I wonder, in all the coins you find, have you ever sold any? I would imagine some are worth a good deal.
Brad, What settings do you find work the best on the Deus II?
Brad that is very respectable of you to move away from the graves .
Let’s go, let’s go treasure and adventure🌺💕👵✌️
Well Done! 🙌🏻 Thanks 😊
So much Fun! Makes me want to go dig in the dirt. LOL Thanks for your respect for the 'cemetary' area.
👍😊 your videos are always interesting.
