"...and I've got 5 gold rings...", he says, cool as a cucumber. Dude, I'd be bouncing off the ceiling! Thanks for sharing this awesome hunt...and I gave your channel a plug in my vid from yesterday. -Tim

I'm speechless Tom. Definitely one for the record books. Insane location. Got me motivated too!

That gold cameo ring is in incredible condition. It doesn't have a scratch on the cameo part amazing.

I really enjoy watching your videos. You are so low key, and I learn a lot as a newbie.

Rene' Mills I also appreciate how you include we viewers in the discovery.

Two of the greatest back to back hunts I have ever witnessed ! The only video that beats these would be Aquachigger's huge silver day which also took place in a body of water. A river crossing I believe. Thanks for sharing. Truly what we all hope for !!!

Thanks , rivers have a lot of potential with research. We were definitly shocked with all that we found. We figured to only find a few coins and maybe a ring if we were lucky .. But definitly surprised that no one had detected it , a lot of locals ended up finding the place from the videos even with the landmarks I inserted of random areas to throw anyone off !

Amazing finds... As to 'locals' I suppose one must be VERY careful what to post, until one has completely finished detecting a "silver-n-gold river'. When I heard you say, "pavilion" I immediately thought you were at a park--where else other than a pier could offer some form of rental boats for weekend lovers and friends to canoe or row... leaving change-n-rings behind. Thanks for sharing--it was great spending a couple hours with ya! ~k~

Like my "Happy Hunting Ground" you'll have give a nickname to that INCREDIBLE place on the river. Maybe..." Good & Plenty"...So much Beautiful Gold & Silver and old Nickels. You are finding in 3 videos about as much as someone can detect silver in many months...gold as in a freaking year or more😃 What a "Silver & Gold Mine" ..yet another name. BIG CONGRATS TOM🏆🏆🏆🙌🙌🙌

Thanks for the great videos and congrats that's the find of a lifetime, I think I would just set up camp there for a while. Looking forward to the next hunt.

Not just an awesome spot, but one incredible spot! Your finds are simply killing it right now! Truly enjoy that you allow us to follow along! It is an amazing trip!

Nice finds and cool gold rings. Thank you for sharing them and take care!

You find better and more stuff in the rivers then anyone I watch and I watch a lot

loved this 3 part series. Havnt seen this many coins in one place before.

I love your channel so much!!! Those gold signet ring and I think the other one might be a cameo ring are beautiful. I am a huge fan of antiques and yesteryear collecting. Beautiful river there and so clear thanks for sharing this with us. It’s amazing to see old coins and rings. Great video and it lifts my spirits since I am mainly home bound due to chronic pain illnesses. Your videos are a real treat.

What an amazing location you have found! Awesome finds...looking forward to seeing what you find on your next trip!

great job on the low tone hunting that one v nickel was great when your used to the red ones, and that gold always makes people smile.

Holy cow, congrats on all the cool finds! Nice new spot you found....

Great video and some AWESOME finds. Wow all that Gold and silver. That V nickel that was so shinny was great. What a great day. You need to go back and hunt it some more. Good job.

Great hunt! I dug a 1937 Buff Monday that came out like your V-Nick. Nice haul man and congrats on the Gold Rings! GL & HH, Jerimy

All I can say is WOW. The next time you find a silver coin, keep it in the water & rub that blue crust off it. Make sure the coin doesnt hit air until your done rubbing.

I sure this area has been hit by others in the past. Hunters get discouraged when there's a lot of bottle caps, pulltabs and other junk in the water. Also river current plays a part in moving some of sand so that your closer to the target. Your river reminds me of the river I'm hunting. Could you imagine what is deeper? Bigger gold!

@hiluxyota7200

7 жыл бұрын

Well if you have a river like this one don't film it !! We were actually the first ones in there after a little more research the water level was too deep for anyone to detect it. Earlier construction a ways down river made the water level drop. My big mistake was releasing the videos of this site where a few locals figured it out and started helping themselves.

Hi, enjoyed your video. Remember 28 grams is only a common (avoirdupois) ounce, used for weighing everything EXCEPT precious metals. Gold is weighed in TROY OUNCES which are 31.1 grams. And, as others pointed out, make sure you check the reverse of that 1916 Mercury Dime for a "D" mit mark, a 1916-D mercury in really worn (AG - about good) condition is still worth 400-500 dollars.

Love your videos brother. I'm buying me a detector tomarrow

I love that Plain Jane gold ring 😁

Beautiful rings!

yeah nickel nice like its sand blasted ... buff still nice with the date ... this river has been unbelievable for you .... bingo nice Gold ring .. sweet ... " the Stream of Treasures" too much to comment on but all good man geez ... you must have some kick ass collection .. big Congrats

Awesome hunt. You were just getting rings left and right. Wtg

What an exciting day detecting! Wow!

great video. great finds. did you check the 1916 merc to see if it had a D mintmark? if it does, you have a key date and rare find. also keep in mind that until the 1920s, gold and silver jewelry wasn't hallmarked. some of the rings you and Dan found may be gold pre 1920s. keep the videos coming.

@@findokhistory3009 the coins aren’t really worth anything but scrap silver value due to the condition of the coins. The gold rings to me are works of art and to me have history to them. Sure I sold modern gold people lost that I find at local beaches, but the antique ones I would rather donate to a local history museum instead of selling them. I would only get the scrap gold values on them instead of the actual value of being an antique.
