@@dirtlifedetecting haha, thanks friend
I know you miss your lil helper and we miss her too! Lol! But i could watch you all day too! Love your compassion for the hobby! I have the same awesome hobby also!!
@@michaelmartin6747 It’s the greatest hobby ever. Thanks Michael
You sure get around. You deserve the rewards you get just for your perservence . People will be following you around just to detect the spots you find. Nice finds once again.
@@hardyakka6200 haha, that’s why I try and be discreet. I don’t live near most of these places so it wouldn’t be right to blow it up. Thanks as always. Btw, she came out with me the other day and we’re headed out again soon
Nice finds, young man! The eagle button looks like the type that had a ring through the back and, I was told many years ago, was later than the civil war....but that's been many years ago. The "grape shot" is nothing like the type I've dug from civil war sites....they were all smaller solid lead shot and the canister shot was solid iron....not sure what yours is. The bullet looks very similar to a .38 or .44 Sharps - Gomez and Mills multi groove variant. The "cartridge" case on them was untreated paper. They were considered sporting rifles and were used during the Civil War...at least that's what it looks like. Great finds! Thanks, as always, for letting us tag along... very much appreciated! Take care, be safe and God bless!
@@jimthompson9992 That’s some great feedback as always Jim. Thanks very much
You sure do put in the work my friend- kudos for the dedication and great results!

Great buttons, sweet IHP’s, congrats on the silver. Love the grape shot thing. Nice to see a Jersey Copper 10:53
@@TeamLynchBMD Thanks Guys
Emma is sure missing a lot! But her Dad Mike is killing it in the fields! Could the ball be a topper to a weather vain or a lightning rod? Keep on diggin Mike, Emma will surely come around eventually! ✌️😊
@@kimetherington2252 she did come out the other day and we’re headed out soon today as well. Thanks as always Kim
Hey Mike very nice Hunts there. Hoping big time you found a Grape Shot Mike. That is awesome. Love the General Service Button and Fancy Button. Congrats on all the Wheaties, IHPs, War Nickles, Mercury's and Rosie's. Especially the New Jersey Copper. Love the Marble also. Take Mike Hpoe the Family is doing Great.
@@craziedigging4590 thanks again Roy. Good luck out there. Stay cool
Will do. Still in the high 90s here. Kinda of unheard of here at 6500 above sea level. Global warming I suppose.
@@craziedigging4590 could be Roy, or just a weather trend. It’s hot here too
Nice haul.
@@maxfox8496 thanks Max
Mike if that says Excelsior on the bottom it's a NY Militia button. Not sure of the date. Sweet find, congrats!
@@mikestanners23 I’m gonna recheck it. Thanks again Mike
the bullet looks like a ring tailed sharps and wow that jersey copper was sweet ! also nice eagle button and looks to be a staff officers button civil war era . good stuff 🤙🏴☠️
@@SkiSearcher thanks my friend, glad you stopped by
looks like a cannon ball my friend!!
@@michaelmartin6747 so cool. Thanks
Look at the end of the 6 spots you ended up going to .. Nice scores... Happy Hunting. Peace
@@ohdannyboyjustadiggin thanks friend
Great hunts there Mike! Love the military button of course! Definitely looks like a grape shot! I wish I could just go into any park here I'm Massachusetts bit every town has different laws. Near Boston area, forget about it 😆 it's all protected. I used to dig at park near me with a permit but then the city stopped doing permits and voted it illegal to dig! Such a bummer. Wicked happy hunting!
@@wicked_digger wow, that sucks since there is so much history in Mass. Good luck out there boys
@DigginDuo yes it sure does!! Just got a recent great spot though! Silver Assassin and I went this week and will definitely be back! The owners were awesome and we found some 1700s relics!! The history is there!
👍👍
@@jillianfortuna2348 thanks
The time on the watch was 4:39! Lol, no wonder your wife wants to give the business 😂
@@todlocher6692 haha. I’m blind. Thanks again my friend
The lead ball that you found looks like civil war canister shot rather than grape shot.
@@garynichols8186 oh now that’s cool. Thanks friend
Fun watching your videos for a good time now. Is the shot hollow??? If so, there were small grenades about that size during the French & Indian War period and possibly up to the Revolution. Had a fues that was hand lit carried by special troops. Good example of such a small grenade is in the Fort Legioner Museum in Pennsylvania... However all examples were made of iron. Something to look into.
Thanks Douglas, really appreciate that and glad you enjoyed it. Judging from its weight, it could be somewhat hollow enough for powder but I’m pretty sure it’s lead.
The muffin type button appears to be NY Militia officers. With buttons it’s always about backmarks/makersmarks. I would gently clean the back and see if there is one. If there is it should authenticate it and give a general time/era for it. As far as the lead ball weigh and measure it. There are various “shot guide” websites for 17th to 19th century projectiles. Shot were made with specific sizes. Even with the corrosion it should fall within the tolerances if it is a military projectile.
@@louiezenti8631 excellent feedback Louie. Thanks very much
The last find looks like a lutinets bag😊civil war area
@@donhoughton271 thanks
mantap bos kuuu ❤❤❤
Thank you
Looks like the gear shifter knob from an old tractor
@@russharrison8524 I saw that too at 1st but it’s solid lead
Yeah a tractor knob would be wood or steel, I'm pretty sure it's not grapeshot though, they didn't have fuse holes
@@russharrison8524 hmmm, puzzling. Thanks again
Yeah prank "M" lol
@@purnellrichardson3716 haha
I have found grape shot, mine were solid and iron. Don't know if that helped any.
@@terrygreennway9655 I’ve also seen them as you describe. Just not sure since it’s solid lead. Thanks for your help
