What’s Buried Under This Hill Has to Be Seen to Be Believed
Ойын-сауық
On this adventure I'm invited to an unassuming stand of trees that's hiding more treasures than I've ever found in one day.

What a great time Brad and such nice people you get to detect with. The camaraderie between metal detectorists is a fine example of how to treat people.

Ditto!!
There must’ve been a tavern or shop or train station or something right there for you to find all that and it’s so close to those houses.

Stagecoach stopover?
About 35 years ago I was detecting an old home site on a hilltop. After finding dozens of 1800's coins that could not have been dropped by the family, turns out there was a carnival there at some point.
I really appreciate to see such an honest and humble gratefulness from your side towards the 2 inviting you and i like your calm and collected attitude towards this hobby.

Must be an old trading post . Had to be an awful lot of foot traffic through that area

Maybe an inn
Thank you Jason for inviting me on your journeys ! I just love everyone of them so much . And done so professionally , I can't believe ! This is like watching a movie & wondering what's going to happen next ! LOL !! Life & history are so suspenseful & you do it perfectly and professionally . I'm 75 yrs . Old and a Veteran of Vietnam . I have a White metal detector , And have it for years . But I've (never ) found anything but bottle caps & aluminum cans . Keep doing what your doing ( please ) !! Again thank you & GOD BLESS ! Always watching YOU , Kenny ; Ocala , Florida .
Like many other comments are saying, I would like to think that this location must have been where a trading post, tavern, or even a lodge, maybe all three where located. Such a large variety of treasures for you all to find, especially with the different coins and buttons. It would seem odd for just a single family structure, because they would have been a very careless to have lost so much.

I would agree on perhaps a tavern….Too drunk to even care about belongings, stumbling out of the place, getting into fistfights ripping each other’s clothes and I can go on and on….Take care! Greetings from Canada 😉👋🏼🇨🇦

@McChrister I didn't even consider that with a tavern. Some of the patrons would have been too drunk to care or notice they lost anything. Throw in some fighting it out, money would be lost, and their clothing torn.

Or a tavern / cat house/
Helllo Brad. Congrats for this nice addition to your collection. Your bucket list coin form New-Jersey is dated from the same year as my house, as engraved on the stone above my main entry door. In 1786, France was still a monarchy under the reign of Louis the 16th (beheaded in 1793) represented on the french coin found by one of your hosts. Through my house, this long past history is not so far away from me.
There must have been some kind of annual fair or farmers markets where many people gathered because the coins are from different times and there are so many! That first song sounded new ! Nice catchy tune !
With all those buttons, it may have been the site of a tailor's establishment. A really great hunt! Your videos are striking! Thank you for sharing!

Were it just the buttons and a few coins, I'd guess a homestead that had burned down. Given the clay soil, most iron/nails would've long rusted away.

I would guess a gathering place of some kind. Maybe church or place for events. People wore buttons all over their clothes back then. So they fell off alot.
Welcome back for spring detecting, Brad-have missed you detecting all winter!!
Here in the middle of Michigan if you see a hill like that in the middle of a field or in the woods it is very often an Indian burial mound. There is a farm nearby with a big mound in the middle of the field and the kids in this area used to go out there right after the farmer plowed looking for arrow heads that had been unearthed.

Hills are the norm here. And arrowheads are rare now.
Thanks guys for the invite, I’ve been waiting for some good detecting to start! Nice finds Brad, you need to do this more often!
Great musical introduction
Thanks for letting me hang out with y'all....🤓🕊️
Congrats Brad you all did real well saving history.
Brad glad you are back to speed and healthy again, finding Roman’s is fun but nothing like our own American history . I enjoyed this almost as much as you. Thanks
I live in South Texas and there is not much history around here except cactus and mesquite. I have always enjoyed watching your videos Brad, they get your attention. I sit here and watch with awe as you pull coin after coin from the 1700's and 1800's!! Amazing finds and artifacts, just shaking my head saying WOW!! I have been detecting for close to 40 yrs and have never found a land coin in the 1700's, I have found a Spanish old world Silver 8 Reales COB couldn't verify date but pre 1621. Philip II or III, but never an old land coin under 1800. Good hunt day for you guys, nice honey hole!! In my opinion it looks like a stage stop or tavern was there, I have detected stage stops down here and lots of early 1800's coins and buttons. Excellent Brad, take care and see you on the next hunt

A great way to start the season! Honestly, a dream day.
What a great way to start my Friday. Thanks again for sharing. Love your videos
Your friends look like great guys! So nice they shared the field with you. Some cool finds by all of you.
Congratulations on the Jersey! We would love to see your state coppers together when you complete the collection. Your soil is kind for sure. Keep up the good work. Congrats to Tom and Phil as well. Hope to see more from those guys
Friday the BEST day of the week. Great stuff Brad thanks
Great hunt and beautiful place thank you for sharing 👍👍
What a day. Great intro music....and at the end.
Awesome day for you guys outdoors again great fines great day Brad glad you have found so much things 👍🙋♂️🌴stay blessed
That's one heck of a permission!!! Congrats on the Jersey state copper.
I subbed, this guy seems cool. A lot of kids grow up with an idea of wanting to become a treasure hunter and many of those kids myself included don’t grow out of it.
Congratulations on your NJ Copper and all of your finds, Brad! Nice finds for the other fellas as well. Thanks for sharing the day's fun with us!
This one gave me goosebumps, I couldn't imagine being at that good of a site! Definitely makes the mind reel to try to figure out what went on at that site in the past.
What awesome finds! Great that you found a bucket list. Thanks for sharing this video
That very well could be an old trading post. You know they would have parties outside and moonshine was in the mix so there is the reason you were finding French and English coins.
Some people are still dreaming about detecting a place like that!! Great hunt, Brad!!
Great hunt Brad! I’m a little jealous because I don’t find the really old stuff here in NW Ohio😊
Looks like one of the businesses must've been a tailor or seamstress with all of those thimbles and buttons
HEY! Gooooood morning everybody and thumbs UP to Brad Martin!

Good morning Richard! Thumbs up to Brad!!
I loved the intro music and of course the video! Thanks for posting Brad.
That 1800 date stamped over 1700 has to be rare must be worth some bucks😊
Awesome video and finds! It’s so exciting to see relics like that coming out of the ground with modern houses and vehicles in the background!! A great hobby for sure!
Aye, that beat at the intro went hard! I love it.....
Man oh man ohhhhh man!!! What a dream day!!! I just completed an overnight hunt with high expectations and came back with 74 clad coins, and one wheat cent 😢. What it must be like to pull that kind of history from the dirt?! Awesome to live the adventure through my laptop - thanks for all you do for the hobby Brad.
Possibly a stagecoach area, definitely a trade depo. Thank you so much for bringing us along…
WOW…nice haul today. Cool video👍😎
The good old Friday feeling is Back
Great finds.
Good to see you. What a cool place. The finds and the dates could have a lot to with history of this country: wars, battlefields, etc, maybe a loot that got dropped and dispersed through the years. ❤
That button is a General Service Eagle Button. Definitely American Civil War made by Scovill button co or Waterbury Button Co. Wow surprised you found that here in Vermont. I'm from Central Vermont. Would love to go detecting with you sometime Brad. Keep up the good work!! Im an avid Civil War , Revolutionary War, and military relic collector and Civil War reenactor in the Vermont Civil War Hemlocks living history.
How fun! What a great day!
Congrats on that Jersey coin!
Incredible day…Congrats!
Glad you had a great day.
Wow, some of the last minted coins before the French Revolution, very cool
Congrats on that NJ copper! What a find!
My thoughts on the coins and on how many there are is that it was probably a stash that ended up getting spread around by farming.
Brad...this must have been a small town 200 plus yrs agao...fantastic !!! Thanks for sharing this with us...
Great episode!!! It's good to see you out and about. We love your friends.
What a great adventure with your friends. Thanks for sharing.
Possibly a seamstress lived in that house. That many buttons. And they constantly dropped their coins. Awesome hunt for y'all.

Kinda what I was thinking too. You could get your buttons replaced, probably any kind of tailoring, and the holes in your pockets sewn up. Although maybe a bit too late for some on the latter.
Great finds. I look forward to seeing your channel each week. Great content excellent music and camera work. From finds to nature even the results of mother nature you do a great job and the speculation of what happened in each area makes your vids worth seeing each week. Is it possible that this area was a Tavern or roadside coach stop. To find such a variety of items seems that their were travelers in the area. In my area their was a coach stop that is no longer attainable as it is now owned by a quarry company but many such finds like what you had found were at this site. Congrats on your finds and keep the vids coming.
👍😊 that’s a lot of stuff.
Congrats on the bucket lister! Coins of that age are only a dream for me! But for the most part, my area was settled in the 1850s. My oldest coin so far is a 1865 Indian head cent i found last week. You and a couple others have inspired me to start making videos. More as a vlog than entertaining the world. I'll leave that up to the pros
It's fun to see how excited you and friends are when you find a treasure!
Morning Brad, great opening song….

At 15.40... Those almost look like elms in the background. Been 50 years since we cut the one in our yard. Boo hooo
If only you could stand and look back in time at what was there, the people and structures. Amazing thought that those items have been sitting in the ground for most of our nation's lifetime!
I’d guess that the property may have been a tavern or stopping point for travelers that may have camped on the property, which would account for the variety of coins and buttons.
Wow! What a day, beautiful weather and great finds. Hard to beat, thank you for sharing.
looks like a general service button, Nice Finds.
WOW! Way to go. Happy swingin diggin Brad!👍😘
What an adventure Brad. Thanks for letting us ride along.
How absolutely fun for all of you! It's great to go with friends so you can share what you found! Amazing!
The Eagle button is I believe a general button that was worn by everyone that wasn't Artillery or Infantry in the Civil War !
Fantastic haul from everyone. I would make the assumption that there was a tailor or similar within that general area based on what you’re finding.
Oohhyeahh! Great 🤯 super find! Good for you man!👍😎👊
Brad thank you for the adventure , seeing beautiful scenery and amazing finds !
Great to be outside again! Great finds too! Thanks for sharing.
Great finds! LOVE the music!
A great day for everyone !!!!! Congratulations on your Jersey! ❤
Congrats with your NJ copper! Great video! Take Care, Jim
First chords off that national steel, just hit me in the gut. Love,love,love that sound. 30 years ago, in Ludlow a local played that. He knew ,I would be asking for a short set on the national.
Nicely done, Brad. A video that’s worthy of such a memorable day. Already looking forward to our next adventure!
Back in the woods again!💚
Such an amazing day of treasure hunting. Thank you for bringing us along
Now that was a great dig.
What a great day and fantastic finds!
What a Great spot for finds! Wow, so exciting! Congrats on all of the old coins; and thank you for sharing Brad
What a great hunt! I was thinking that round spoked item might have been a wheel on a child's toy. Keep swinging!
What a great piece of earth to detect and find some fantastic history just awesome so cool Brad a Connecticut and NJ copper and so many very old coins 👊🏼👊🏼
That was an awesome adventure. So happy you found a bucket list item, the New Jersey copper. Amazing day for sure.
Another awesome video Brad. Really liked all those cool coins and buttons, shoe buckle. Congrats for finding the Connecticut copper & the New Jersey state copper. 0:35
Maybe it was a house of ill repute? joking but that was a fancy shoe that the buckle used to adorn. So much money. Cool. So happy for your chance to detect an amazing spot.
Another great one! Thanks!
Congratulations, Brad, on your Jersey coin, well done!! I get almost as excited as you do with your discoveries. MANY thanks for another great adventure with my morning coffee !!
Always fun to watch. You should get a little spray bottle of water to clean off buttons etc.. doesn’t scratch up coins etc..
WOW! Awesome finds! I found a double gilt button a few weeks back. I am super jelly of those coins. GRATZ!
Awesome video thanks for all you’ve done!!
I believe that large brass gear is a lost part of the Antikythera mechanism! Just kidding. Great video!
Congratulations Brad All amazing finds especially on your bucket lister
I love and always enjoy your music and cinema in your videos. Content is always interesting too.
Wow, what an incredible day of treasure hunting! The bucket lister is always nice to cross off the list! Til next time take care, stay safe and dig, dig, dig...
I would certainly be extremely pleased if I found those coins.
Wow congratulations Brad. You have some awesome finds
