i believe i just hollered at me and he hollered in a way i ain't never heard him hauler i'm not being hyperbolic man i hope it's something good you just got your first one holy snap dude let me see that thing that is straight down well look who's digging with us it's nail digger joe and you know he's got to get in get his two cents down yeah we're at the spot uh from the last video we're gonna try to find some more stuff so stick around i'll turn on if we find anything excuse the angle i've got to preserve this permission my daughter is on the board here yeah check this out it's got a skeleton key plate on it look at that that is cool it's riveted man that is a good find bug that is cool baby now you got to find the skeleton key to it all right put it in your pouch so you don't lose it okay all right guys i'm using the technetics t2 plus today sensitivity 85 disc level 0 number of tones 2 plus let's get out of it charlie's on the board again it's old that's for sure i don't know i know buddy oh yeah it's one of those things i dug one of those here too i'm not sure what it is but here you go it's a good signal all right over here got something y'all i'm not sure what it is i don't know if it's a button or a coin i want to do some work on it and i'll cut this thing back on well guys whatever it is it's slick i think it might be a flat button with the shank completely gone because it's got a weird edge to it and it's got that same like feel to it but let's keep going well high top john over here is uh on the board he's got a civilian button it says nonetheless nonetheless nonetheless hold on nonetheless engineer it's pretty cool yeah we're in a different section of woods haven't been in here too hard yet a lot of shotgun shells gets thicker and it looks like there might be some ivy in that bottom so still some big old trees down in here this was a huge plantation so there's going to be stuff scattered it's been hit in the past but there's no way they got it all they obviously haven't because we're finding stuff every time we come so stick around and maybe get into something in that bottom something good something that the old timers missed well worked our way down here to this ivy in this little bottom and uh just dug this brass right here it's really decorative might have had a keyhole right there i'm not sure but uh yeah maybe we're getting on another spot right in here there's only one way to find out hopefully we'll start getting into some iron dude i don't know if we've been to a spot where stuff's this scattered maybe one spot that i'm not gonna name but let's just go on that note guys i've gotten into those stinging nettles and the blue jeans that i'm wearing today are the stretchy kind and the stinging nettles are piercing through the jeans and just staying there so i'm just itching all over but check this out right there where my headphones are on the t2 plus it's where i dug that decorative piece i got there's a bunch of iron right here and i had a choppy signal but there was something trying to shine through and i'm not sure if this is a coin or not but there's something right here it's not the top to a button sorry it sure does let me work on that for a second and i'll get back with y'all well it's not a civil war button but it is a cool button check it out there's an owl perched on a branch and it says owl brand we tried look leave i tried looking it up to just get a age on it but we weren't able to figure anything out in the field so if you have any idea how old it is let us know because we like to know stuff about the things we find and um there's definitely a iron here so i'm gonna set the camera on this log and get to work okay so not sure what is going on right here you get out of this little hole right here this little hole right here there's not a whole lot of signals but there's a bunch of signals right here and i started just digging trying to get some of the big iron out and i noticed there's a bunch of glass a bunch of glass and i just pulled this out i'm not sure what it is brass maybe off of a suspender i don't know so i literally just popped the plug and started filling around with my pin pointer so i'm gonna keep rotting around right here it might be an old dump or something who knows i hope it is two big plow points have come out of here a bunch of pottery is in the dirt so maybe we'll get lucky and find an old privy hole or something all right we've migrated out to the field and levi is on the board with something really cool it's still decorative something and it's got somebody on horseback with bows and it looks like they're chasing deer maybe let me see chasing something right there it almost looks like gazelle gazelle yeah these birds flying honestly that is cool man right on we're on another little home site all right let's keep going what are you doing buddy sitting under this big old cedar tree yeah i like cedar trees well i just found something pretty cool i'm gonna show it to y'all right quick i'll sit down next to this cedar tree and show it to y'all i don't know what it is but it's pretty cool all right at first it just looks like a piece of brass but if you look closely it has the name horus engraved on it hold on just a second it says horus it's got a weird bend to it thick brass not sure what that would be somebody personalized it a bunch of iron up on this hill ah let's keep going guys you're gonna have to excuse the sun it is hard to we got a coin over here all right let's check this out y'all i don't know how old that is this light let me rub it off right quick a little bit more not sure i'll have to look that up and see how old it is i thought it was a two cent piece at first but that is cool the old t2 cutting through all this iron i believe i just hollered at me and he hollered in a way i ain't never heard him holler i'm not being hyperbolic he uh sorry for the camera it's raining i can't use my dslr the gopro's broke oh we've been trying to get on this permission forever and levi is the one that got us on it man i hope it's something good if you're messing with me we're gonna be fighting have i ever seen one come out of the ground okay all right just hold on i'm gonna go straight down to your hand and you do the reveal i'm gonna wait on daddy i reckon daddy come stand out here i don't know what he's got he said i've seen one come out of the ground before are you serious dude you just got your first one holy snap dude let me see that thing and you didn't levi yeah how many places that so far this year between us all three yeah my god man we'll get that thing cleaned up in a little bit holy sh and we just got here that's my second target i've only dug one target my first target was some that all right dude let's get going man sweet all right we're out here with daddy he dug this earlier but i didn't get to film it it looks like one of those old brass picture frames let me zoom in for you not that much come on camera focus it's starting to get a little weathery out here man there's stuff everywhere out here what did you say if you dig what if you get any if you get anything like 50s and up dig it because the past two targets i've dug red 50 popped the hole and they were reading 80. there's just so much iron and stuff in here that it's masking it out all right i was about 100 yards that way levi was about 100 yards this way we met in the middle and uh he just dug that it's a hill plate it's got a heart on it i think brandon did some research on it and he said that uh the old uh prostitutes back in the day would wear those that way you could follow their tracks to their uh brothel brothel yeah lady other than that yeah they called it lady of the night i haven't seen i haven't done any research on the brothels in this area she might have been a traveling prostitute with the union but uh right before he dug that i dug this it's a flat button so the the spot we're digging i don't know which video this is going to make it in but there was a civil war house that set right through there about 250 yards been pushed into a pile unfortunately but uh we're on the outskirts the owner of the property had a huge um a huge plantation over here so basically we're probably in the far back yard and we're this property so big it's going to take us years to detect it all it's been hit before but everybody uh everybody misses some stuff ain't that right levi yep everybody misses some stuff well guys i just dug this it's made of brass and it's got two rivets going through it i imagine it's super old but uh let me know if you have any idea what that is there was heavy troop activity right here where we're at that gives me hope though if this was left then anything could be left all right let's keep going well we're still over here in the thick of it sweating our butts off just dug this looks hand forged not sure if it's period or not and by period i mean civil war era that's the area we like digging but it's some kind of digging tool not sure if it could have been used to dig entrenchments or it's just farm related if you know let me know onward all right guys just dug a bucket lister but it's broken i think in this video you're gonna see levi dig one as well i don't know if it's before or after this but uh check it out now our research tells us that the prostitutes back in the day would wear would wear harsh heel plates with hearts cut out in them that way you could follow the hearts and the mud to the brothel but that's what that is you can see the heart right there that is awesome too bad it's broke they usually are though that's why they end up in the ground all right we're about to go home
