metal detecting a river full of silver and gold ( part 2 )
finally got the chance to upload the second half of my one day river hunt at a new location. This is by far the best hunt I have ever had in one day , altogether me and Dan left that spot with 39 silver coins..along with other great finds . so check out everything we found in this half of the video , because hunts like this don't happen very often ..

So awesome!... What a great site to hunt... a honey hole for sure. Can't believe all that was found in one day....Unreal!Congrats on the silver and gold. - Cody 'R.S.'
Spectacular. Big congratulations on working such a great site. Best of luck on your future hunts, and thanks so much for sharing your adventure.
Nice! Those Native American cuff bracelets are silver, and very desirable. Fred Harvey era begins around 1890, and refers to the souvenirs sold by Natives to tourists stopping at the railroad stations. Yours are probably from 1890-1920. Do some research into the symbols on the bracelets, and it might narrow down to a tribe. I wouldn't take less than $100-150 on each of those. I'm so jealous! Thanks for sharing!
wow! impressive guys! I guess I've been searching in all the wrong places. Been hunting for over 30 years and only found one silver coin ever, a 1947 quarter. Will try to take your tips on using the old platte maps to find something older than the oldest I've ever found which was a 1925 penny. The hunt continues ......
Absolutely one of the best days of hunting I have seen in a long time. You guys crushed it out there. Huge congrats and I love the old rings, so cool.
Hell of a video Tom!!! Congrats on the goodies!! 👍👍👍
Went back and viewed your part 1 and part 2 river hunt. What an incredible spot. All the goodies that we like to find. Congratulations and great video. Rob

+hiluxyota yes I have seen some of Chicago Ron's videos where he and Mark load up on the gold rings. I think your River hunts definitely compare to that and maybe better with all the old silver. Congratulations again on a great spot and some great finds.
That is ridiculous!!! BEST HUNT I’VE EVER SEEN!!! you are SO LUCKY!!! Show some excitement, man!
AWESOME AWESOME hunt!!! I would love to hunt a spot like that!!! Solid gold was used by assayers on gold that was imported back in the late 1800's to early 1900's. The Bracelet pretty sure is silver as well. I found one that the sterling mark was worn off. What a great collection of finds! GL&HH!
Man that is a boatload of keepers...looking forward to the next one!

You will , sites like these were in almost every town or surrounding town ..just have to spend the hours researching ..I like to find the places that are hard to locate because not a lot of people will take the time to search for areas like these. the only channel that finds rings and searches sites like we do is detector comparisons . good luck
Dude...If I ever had a two-day hunt like yours, that'd be it. I'd retire my detector, because I would never, ever have another hunt like this the rest of my live-long days. Very, very awesome! The only thing you guys didn't find was the gold bars...I mean, everything else was in that river, right? LOL! Congrats! -Tim
This is the best day ever for anyone I've ever seen!
Wow Tom, That's a hunt of a lifetime. Congrats on all that Silver & Gold. Great video!!

Thanks for watching , research definitely pays off , This was a very popular place in the early teens , people from the city would take a 2 hour train ride to get here and spend the weekend.. we were just lucky enough that it was never detected before.. we thought we would only find a few coins here n there, but we are still amazed at how much we are still finding..
Outstanding take, congrats on a bunch of really good finds.
Man that's a hot spot!! If you get tired and need a break just let me know lol. Very nice finds Tom! Those Gold Class Rings are awesome! Nice haul man! GL & HH, Jerimy
Killer spot & a great hunt. Congrats !!! a dream place for all us diggers.
you all might wannta think about going back for another few more times to get the rest. I bet lots more is still to be discovered. Great finds. i bet we all wish we where there with you. ... but the water looked kinda cold

You guys are freaking awesome. Wish I could be there. Pretty cool.
Sweet finds! Congrats to you and Dan!
Absolutely one of the best hunts I have ever seen, a HUGE congrats!
U guys have outdone urselves, outstanding. U gotta keep going back, should be a lot more there. Wonder why so many coins, was this a swimming area or ssid ome type of amusement area? Those old HS rings r neat n I haven't seen a little orphan annie ring since I was a kid growing up in the early 1950s, thanks for that memory. There used to be a Marshall HS here in Brazoria County, TX that is no longer in use as a school, it was an all black school. It's now used for administration offices. Looking forward to ur next hunt, good luck...

Tanks , yes it was an old water park back in the early teens to late 20's , I expected to find maybe a couple things thinking it was hunted before , but we were shocked to find all those old coins and rings , which tells us its never been detected before , very scarce to find a virgin site , we don't want to draw too much attention by going there every day for hours at a time !!

Your Little Orphan Annie ring is quite collectable and comes under the categaorie or radio premium rings if I remember correctly. The radio is because they were made during the time of radio comic book character stories and the premium because it was probably something like buy so many boxes of such and such a cereal and turn them in for the free ring !!!

I wonder if that used to be deeper? It seems so shallow... Great finds! Incredible really...
Just amazing that all this was found in a stream or river like that. Over 50 - 60 years of people wading, fishing, swimming, playing I suppose you could lose all sorts of things. It must have been a really popular haunt over the decades to be able to amass that many lost items. I know that they weren't skipping coins, money was too valuable. You could do a lot of things for 10 cents back then.

I was very fortunate to find a site like this that has never been detected..the water level recently dropped at the beginning of the year , making it easy to detect where otherwise it would of been too high to get in there..
Sure got alot of silver. I wish I could find things like that. Great job.
Dam fine job brother. What an amazing hunt. I have to find some rivers to hunt now. Jim.

definitely nicer to be in the water than on land detecting , theres spots all over like that in almost every town , Its just finding a virgin site like this , is very rare , we didn't expect to find but a couple of coins , but we were really shocked when they started to pop out everywhere !
Ring has my initials! What is really amazing is that the people who lost the items have been gone for many years in most cases, just can't believe your luck.

The solid gold ring is older than the turn of the cen. when K marks were not regulated. If it was lost in the 1920's it was already old.

I will have the video uploaded in a few days , I hope you can check it out and maybe give some input on them ..
Where were you guys, the land that time forgot -- or the land of the lost?! Like you went back in time for the day. Neat! :~) Double check all those "junk rings"... I can't imagine junk rings lasting in the water that long. They look old also.

I think I'd have to call in sick for like the next month and hang out in that river.
I enjoy watching videos like this to see the details in what you find, not what the metal is or your count for the day. You had some great finds where you could have held still & let the camera focus for a little bit so we, the viewer, could actually participate and see what you see. Instead you flip it around like you have Parkinson's & only show the metal stamp. You were finding some really cool lost history. With practice I believe your videos will get better.

well I know I cant please everyone.. this is youtube , none of us are professional film makers , most of us on here anyways..I try to get good close up shots of everything , its hard to do sometimes holding the camera with one hand and trying to look through the view finder trying to get it to focus along with the sunlight or glare from the water.
The bracelet you call "Tribal" is probably coin silver Navajo made Fred Harvey Era Style stuff from the 40's - 60's.

Thanks very much for the info on it , I had a few people tell me what they thought it was , and I had my doubts..but these were found in a early teens to late 1920's site . and the latest dated items I had found were from the mid 1930's..
I believe the ring you show at 21:20 is from the 1933 Chicago Worlds Fair. It's probably not worth anything due to the condition but still a neat find. It makes me wonder if any of the things you called tribal bands were from the expo as well. You moved so fast in the video I couldn't quite see but I thought some of the markings looking a little "deco" ish. I had fun watching. Thanks for posting.
