Mom really enjoyed this video! She loves when you hunt Cold Harbor. She wishes we still owned the house on Cold Harbor, & she would let you dig there! Thanks for making great, interesting & informative videos!! We’ll keep watching 😊

I wish she still owned some Cold Harbor property too!!!!! I am so humbled that your Mom enjoys these things. I wish my dad was still here (If he could be healthy!) because I would love to discuss my finds with him. I think he'd be shocked that there was anything left to find. My love to your mom, my appreciation for her support, and my very best to you and your fam. Please tell Nancy I'm eating lunch tomorrow with a very old mutual friend. DUANE!!

WHAT AN AWESOME HUNT!!

Just WOW Mike. I know Jake will be intrigued to read this. How strange to think that your ancestor might have heard one of the shells go off, of which we found frags, caseshot or fuse . . .

Wow I’m needing this day in my week

Thanks man. Got your new machine? I haven't forgotten about the "equipment" vid!

My great x2 grandfather Ephraim Bates fought in Cold Harbor for the Union. NY 8th Heavy Artillery Co F. But they fought as infantry. He was wounded in Cold Harbor June 3rd and again in June 20 or 21 I believe. Altogether in the civil war he was wounded 4 times, loosing and eye, a finger, shot in the neck by a mini ball (dug out of his neck with a jackknife in the battlefield) and shot in the abdomen and he carried that bullet in him until he died in his mid 70’s in Minnesota as a homesteader on a civil war pension. He’s buried in Randall Minnesota. It is my dream and bucket list to visit the battlefields of cold harbor, Siege of Petersburg, and Appomattox Courthouse. A bonus dream to ever search and metal detect relicts, I’d probably choke up on my first civil war find. Someday I’ll make the trip there from Alaska where I live. I love your channel and content Sir. Thank you for sharing

If you ever make it to central Virginia, look me up! I am wowed by your ancestory and how much you know about them. That's cooler than anything I find, mostly nameless.

Really enjoyed you video! Thank you very much for sharing! Particularly enjoyed your 2 paper fuses plus the description at the end. Best wishes from Republic of Mauritius!

Thanks Donald. Dropping one now - Incredible story and relics. Check it out in about 15 minutes!

Nice finds!!..went to HS with a couple of brothers that had family that owned a farm there that was used as a dressing station and recovery area..lots of stuff left behind that they kept up through the years..that stuff was incredible.. can't remember the name..if I happen to come across it,Ill post it..maybe you know them haven grown up in the area...

That’s what’s up Yo! Never seen a fuse or knew how all the stuff worked, love how you alway explain for the “confused”! Sweet trenches, what an experience to be able to hunt that. That guy Murdock is a battlefield runner! Great video! Keep walking and digging Yo!

Dewey, I'm afraid I'm technologically challenged and pretty boring. When I'm in a very trashy site, I hunt graph or hot sifter. But on battlefields, like this hunt, I just hunt straight "deep" all the way and listen for the whispers.The grapeshot and fuse were only feint chirps . . . but if I'm in a trench, a feint mouse-whisper is music to my ears!

We love your channel!! Nice finds! Quick question...a couple of us on our channel use the Deus as well. What program were you in to hit on those deep bullets?

@thebattlefieldwalker2841

Жыл бұрын

I'm not an innovator at all dude. Technologically ignorant. When I'm on a battlefield without a ton of trash, I am simply on the "Deep" program. I do use the largest Deus head which does make a difference. At least a couple inches, maybe more, deeper. And in trenches like these, I dig every WHISPER of a repeatable signal. That's the ticket. I'm honored that you are enjoying this stuff. Thank you sincerely, for the compliment!

Amazing finds and another awesome video, the history lessons learned here are priceless.
