Correct,an old socket chisel. You could clean that up and it would still hold an edge better than today's chisels.

Another great haul Greg. Congrats on that beautiful sash buckle and gold gilt eagle button. I read an article on those post CW eagle buttons (1902 and newer) that said if the eagles head is facing left it was a WW1 button, and if facing right it was WW2 and newer. Just thought I would throw that out there. Either way, its stunning! My Manticore just arrived this morning. Yahoo!!!

Thanks Doug and I don't think they were right about that. The eagle on the Great Seal always faces right towards the olive branch which symbolizes that the US always prefers peace to war but clutches the arrows in its left talons to let our enemies know that we are always ready for a fight.Glad you liked seeing that button and I found another one in the new episode coming out.

I also dug a 1929 Buffalo Nickel this week! It was an S mint and my first one. Unfortunately, it has seen better days. The fact that it even exists at a site I've been to at least 10x is amazing and proves to me what you say is true... "never hunted out".

Great Hunt Greg. At it again with the Beautiful Sash Buckle. Congrats. I just found a Military Cap Button like yours a little while back. Thank you for helping me identify it. I didn't recognize what I had found. Love the old jack. Very cool Collar Stud I've never seen one like that either. Congrats on the V Nickles Buffalo Nickle and Wheaties. As always another terrific video. Take Care Greg

Certainly killed it on the nickels! I find the Manticore just hits so well on those 20's signals you pretty much know it's a nickel and almost what type before you dig. Continued success with that great machine!

Excellent work Greg!! Those V nickels are in pretty good shape considering they’ve been in the ground so long. I hunt a park near me that’s been in use for years and it has a hill where people congregate near a flag pole and I’ve pulled V nickels and shield nickels in great shape, I think it may be due to the drainage. Looking forward to your next video, keep at it!!

Hi! I’m so glad you went back to the school site! I just want to mention that the knife blade you found could certainly be a butter knife, it is just as likely a fish knife for the table. They come in the same form, and I’m just guessing as I can’t tell your knife blade’s dimensions relative to your hand, but yours looks like it might be a bit large for a butter knife. Thank you for your wonderful metal detecting videos.

Why are you digging a lot of junk? I thought the manticore eliminated all that.

@FindingAmerica

3 ай бұрын

It's by choice as I dig it all every single time I go out detecting. I am constantly talking about and advocating "digging it all" on the channel. I do not use any discrimination at all when I am detecting and run the machine with the horseshoe on which is running it in all metal. I dig all the junk because I want to and because so many of the things featured in my videos ring up with the same VDI number as trash does. If someone wants to notch everything out that might remotely be garbage and just cherry pick high tones they can do that but they will definitely be leaving a lot of amazing finds in the ground when they leave. If a person is not digging trash out there they are missing out on a lot.
