The best part is how little trash you found. I love that. People must truly treasure that area, and I can see why, it’s beautiful!
If its hard to get to, that may put a lot of people off...🙃 bonus
I agree, so many wonderful places are ruined by people with alcohol problems.
@@mc4906 the problem isn’t that they drink. It’s that they litter
I’m a drinker but I always take my trash home and I pick up other peoples trash as well.
New England is pretty clean in general.
@@slickmuck4312 very true, if properly disposed of it wouldn't ruin places. But some folks think they need to drink literally everywhere. And people that are inebriated don't care about littering because they're impaired. Take a walk down any city or rural street and count the discarded alcohol containers and beer bottle caps.
A Barber? What a find! Can you imagine someone from that era peeling out of their period garb and cooling off just as those would do a hundred years later? Simply fascinating to ponder. Oldest coin I’ve found thus far is a ‘67 Washington quarter. Love the pure pleasure rendered from your finds.
I don’t think it could get any better, hot day,cool water, no trash or bugs, and an overwhelming excitement of finding unexpected treasure. Thanks for sharing.
Mercury. The Friend of Felons. Anything we should know. Lol
Them dimes. Hard to read. Get them under a scope. Lots of potential value . Besides a blast to find. Finding silver dimes is symbolic. Especially dimes!!!!!!
No Trash!!!!!
Truly A Special Place.
Congratulations & Thank you For Sharing.
The small key is a luggage key. The GM key is a automotive door key. FYI I am a retired locksmith. Lov your videos
GM key is a automotive door key? Geez, how’d you figure that out? lol j/k.
The small key looked like like my locker key from high school.
That same key fit the trunk on most cars.
Yes and those kind of keys were fazed out in the 80's weren't they? I remember my 1980 Olds had one like that but I don't remember my 89 Buick having one.
Yeah. I haven't see one of those in a long time.
1st time viewer, 1st time commenter... I have yet to see any other videos you've done, but this hit the marks, all of them. Right away you respected my time, no mindless ramblings, no overburdened or dwelling in dialogs or videography. You kept it moving and informative without it sounding like a PSA and you have great energy and in a nutshell you rock it!!
I was just going to write the same comment. To the point, great contact with the camera/audience and sharp sound. This is good.
It is my first time watching him as well, and I loved the video for all the same reasons, he happens to also be very charming. Altogether well worth watching. 😉😊
Brad is the best there is!
I’ve been watching for many years, like 5+ I’d say and it’s been top notch all the way. Pure joy and excitement. I’ve learned quite a bit through the years as well.
You thought outside the box and made it into a very interesting detecting adventure. A trifecta of silver dimes, Barber, Merc and Rosie makes it a highly successful hunt. Well done Brad.
Do you know how much those silver coins are worth?
@@jamiewatkins4178 Most are worth $1.27 at today's silver prices. As collectibles, after being in the water for years, their value is $1.50-$3.00. The Barber maybe $8-$10.
And a nice cool down in natures bathtub
From a fellow Vermonter I live in the woods in southern Vermont just outside Brattleboro, and I love how you share our beautiful state.
That 1892 coin is so amazing, wow, great finds, just a beautiful area.
I know what you’re saying! The hunt and the History of our people! Thank You! From Michigan
Haven't even watched the whole video, but already lovin' the opening musical score.
Awesome!!!🌞
I live in Vermont myself and am so happy to have found this channel of my home state
This was fun. I especially enjoyed the beauty of the area. Your enthusiasm is special for us fans. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing. It's nice to get away from this crazy world.
What an absolutely beautiful place! Magical is the best word.
A great time. thank you and congrats on the success. Always enjoy trips to the mountains.
That ole swimming hole is a real treasure. The water is so clear and it looks like the bottom is sandy. Gorgeous and no trash. Those special places are hard to find. Betty from Canada 😊
Your videos are always of the highest quality.
A beautiful little hidden place giving up treasure , who could ask for more. Thanks for sharing this place with us.
Brad, That looked like such a beautiful place. So happy you had such a cooliing and fun time finding your treasure. And thank you for taking us along.
So cool! Three silver dimes, three eras, one day, one stream!!👍🏼
Glad you had a fun time and allowing us to join your fun. Wonderful silver dime trivecta.
It's late, couldn't sleep... Realized it's Friday! GMMD! Already love the tunes you opened up with.... Yay
I wish had messaged you earlier about swimming holes in your area! My best hunt ever produced 12 silver coins(2 silver halves), 2 indians, 30 wheaties, and multiple rings(2 precious) ...all from an old(obviously virgin)swimming hole. I still return to the spot and find stuff that I'd missed.
Whsh you were sharing video of that haul
@@michaelavery2703 tryin to share pictures of the hunt but i guess photos not allowed😒
Wow! Do you mind if I ask what metal detector you use? I was trying to see what kind he used in this video but I can’t tell. Can you? Thanks!!
@@allisonwanderland9917 at pro with nel coil
@@aarondahl2983 Awesome! Thank you.
I have never found a Barber dime.. very cool find.. Brad thx for taking us along on another adventure.. take care my friend...
Congrats! What a wonderful outing. Thank you for sharing.
Both the Barber Dime & the Rosie are FIRST Year! Nice Swimming Hole!! Thx for Sharing, Brad!! Cheers JJ
No better way to spend a 100°, New England, summer's day. Great video. Thank you.
What a way to spend a hot afternoon - a cool, refreshing stream and a pool, a metal detector, coin finds - rather idyllic, especially that beautiful pool. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Wonderful video! Wow, no trash, that's amazing. Thank you for sharing!
So interesting. Exciting. Thanks for sharing.
Sweet finds Brad, very nice Barber dime❤️
this is the first of your video's I have seen. thanks so much for taking me to the swimming hole with you. at my age, 72, this is pretty much the only way I can go to places like this. I remember going places like that in Michigan u.p. with my dad in the 50's and 60's. thanks again.
You are the only metal detecting person I watch. Am always thrilled right along next to you of the treasures you find. you are so gracious and thankful for all the things you find. Wishing you a wonderful day!
Does Brad ever respond to comments I wonder 🤔?
Sometimes 🤷♂️
What kind of metal detector are you using I'm wanting to get into it and would love any info thanks love all your videos
I so enjoy your videos and look forward to them every Friday! Excellent!
Congrats on the Trifecta, Brad. Those little creeks and streams can be quite surprising. When you find a pile of coins in one spot, that's a sink. You should check them over the years because they are the spots where coins will continually show up. Great video and Happy Hunting.
that's really smart!
A wishing pong!!!!
Loved watching this. The water in the pool was beautifully clear and soothing to watch.
Can't believe you found that many coins in such a small stream. Nice silver & congrats on the Barber UNREAL. All of your locations are beautiful in your state. Props to the visitors that never left their trash, very uncommon.
Awesome score thank you for taking us along. 🏆🤞🧐
Hi, Brad. Just what I needed to see at the end of my Friday before I hit the sack. What a great place to hunt for treasure. And if looked like you did very well. Lots of modern coins but 3 silver dimes, one from 1890s, is a nice haul. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Well Done Brad! Great hanging out with U !
I don't know how you can be so excited about your amazing finds and still be able to talk. I would have been hooping and hollering, than speechless. So happy for you!
Fascinating! Well done ! From South Africa.
I don’t know anything about metal detectors except what I’ve heard you talk about - and was shocked you can completely submerge it under water! As always, I truly enjoy your videos. Beautiful, gorgeous place!
I never knew that either
Not all metal detectors can 😉
@@GMMD what are you running in this video?
XP Deus II
@@GMMD
My 2 metal detectors can go in the water alittle but not like the one you used in the video. Still I get some fun finds.😁
My 1st find like 30 yrs ago was a burried fence ! Who burrys a fence?😂😁😀 My best find I think was finding a ladie's grandmother's ring ! I searched a long time in the park for it while the grand-daughter was there & came back really early the next day. When that nice lady got her grandmother's ring back (her grand mom had just died) that was THE best !!! day ever !!! She wanted to pay me but seeing her tears of joy made the hrs of searching all worth it & I'd never charge money to find stuff like that.
Like you, I do it for the fun of 'trying' (luck) at finding 'something'. Many times ya find nothing or find 'junk', but ya never know what you might find & that's the fun of it.
Good luck on your 'hunting' & stay safe.
Great finds and all in a cool and beautiful place . Wise choice on a hot day.
Stream hunting, love it! Great first year Barber!
Great video as always, thanks for sharing Brad.
What a awesome place Brad & Sweet finds
Great job story telling and including us in your process and excitement.
Awesome as usual Brad!! Great way to start the day.
Enters vid gets Devo in first few minutes 🥰 this is yet another reason why I love your content. ❤️ thanks!please keep on loading em!
What a beautiful place to spend the day finding some silver. Thanks for bringing us along Brad!!!
Great finds Brad!!!
You found some amazing items in this beautiful spot. So glad you weren’t finding lots of trash!
A trifecta on those dimes!!! So rare on one outing. Each different styles and eras, congrats!
You were a seated coin away from a grand slam!! That place somewhere along that creek has to be some gold/silver jewelry and more silver coins. Without all the trash all you have to do is find the spot below the swimming hole where that water pooled up in floods. Maybe even up along the banks at a bend where the water washed when flooding? Great spot for sure. I could spend days hunting up there following that creek! Great video!
Thank you for the adventure and seeing some amazing scenery !
I LOVE a Friday morning when I can catch your newest video to enjoy with my morning coffee!! It is right with the world when I can start a day like that. Love your videos & music & perspective. So decent!
Beautiful place, I bet the pool felt great! Wow! That's a huge pile of coins but the 3 were awesome. You could see on your face how much you enjoyed it, cool water and metal detecting...great combo! See you next Friday. Thank you again Brad .. such a pleasure... You're the best!
Loved this video, so peaceful and what a bounty of coins. Loved you found the older dimes. From your fan in Augusta Georgia ❤️👍
What an absolutely stunning pool. I loved today’s video as it is just such beautiful scenery. Those 3 silver coins are lovely & wow for the 1800’s one. How wonderful to find no rubbish, what a rarity that is these days!
Stunning scenery shots. Enjoyed the colours! Awesome channel!
A Trifecta of silver dimes!! Excellent 😃
Great choice of locations for hunting lost Vermont Treasure Brad, thanks for taking us along. You choose a spectacular Vermont "Swimmin' Hole," reminiscent of some that I frequented while living in NW Vermont .. Amazing that you found no trash what so ever .. That in itself, is testament to Vermont's appreciation of natural attractions and those "secret" Swimmin' Holes ..
And the lack of flatlanders like the one moron who blatantly threw his Mcdonalds trash out of the car window in front of my house in Burlington yesterday!!
Yes us REAL vermonters treasure this and those places
@@fishingmaster99 Damn straight.
Nice place brother, I could just sit there for hrs . Peaceful , good hunt thanks for sharing 👍
I envy you Brad for the reason where you hunt. I live in South Texas and around here big private ranches and cactus, mesquite and snakes. As we say down here, if it doesn't prick you it will bite you or stick you!! I'm sitting here watching you pull out barber and Merc dimes and my wife is telling me to close my mouth!!! Gotta luv it. Good video and good luck friend and take care out there Brad
But Vermont gets VERY COLD 🥶!!!
@@theadjuster151 I kind of figured that. but then I would bring myself back when winter comes to South Texas
This was a really fun episode to watch, Brad.
A silver dime trifecta, congrats Brad!
I'm gonna take a wild guess at think.All those pennies and dimes that you have found probably most of them were from people making a wish and throwing it into the water.
What a beautiful spot! Great finds spanning so many years. Thanks Brad!
I love Vermont. It's absolutely one of the most beautiful states that I have ever been in.
Great way to start my day! I love the work you put into your videos.
Brad, this is a gorgeous place. In this heat I wouldn’t be in a hurry to leave it! The stream must do a good job of cleaning the light, modern junk out when there is a storm and a gush scouring.
Great digging, cool finds. I recognized the GM rounded key right away - door/trunk key. The smaller key looks like a suitcase key. Your real zinger find is the 1892 dime.
Hi, from Ukraine 😊 Video very, very good ❤😊👍 My Super Big Like for your my dear friend 😊👍
Sick video keep up the great finds and the cool areas you detect in too.😁👍
How refreshing!
Brad, the short key you found looks like the key to an older Samsonite suitcase. I had a set of that luggage 50+ years ago.
Came to the comments to say this. Glad someone else knew what it was.
Yep. I was gonna comment the same thing.
Remember the gorilla ads?
@@edparker4721 Yes! Wish today’s suitcases would hold up that well!
That is priceless. The whole experience.
In my twenties I had a brief case and it had a key just that square one you found. Really enjoy your hunts. ( nothing dies!)
Yes, looks like a luggage key…
You said “majestic”, if there was a stronger word it needs to be used. Beautiful area and majestic cliffs and stream. It just oozes serenity. Congratulations on your finds. Thanks for taking us along.
Your pic reminds of the polar bear I used to love at Luray Caverns, VA (US); except yours isn’t yellow. :)
I love water hunting and really liked this video with the awesome scenery in the woods, so beautiful.
Congrats on the silver dime hat trick!
The second key you found was a samsonite luggage key. I’m a former airline employee, I recognize the shape. Good job!
Great video Brad as always! I have come across a few coin spills myself and find them very exciting! 👍
Yahoo Brad! I had a blast on this day too! So happy for your happy day, joyful experience and finds that humble we mere mortals. I’m so behind on your adventures, I will be dropping you a note here and there. Take care, Your biggest Kentucky fan💞Tere
I think I’ve been to that swimming hole back when a friend once lived in Vermont.If i recall it was up by Smugglers Notch.It was truly a unique experience!!
Nice finds!!
Great, great video. Love your excitement!
I hunt swimming holes as well. Here's a clue, look for areas close to but away from the hole that people changed clothes or went to the bathroom. A lot of stuff gets dropped there.
wow what a fantastic place to detect its always amazing to see whats hidden below our feet
My friend is here...the search for hidden valuables is amazing.. greetings from the Indonesian natural resource digger..🙏🌹❤️🇮🇩
I was smiling along with you for the whole vid, thanks man
Those 2 keys definitely resemble early 90s gm door and ignition keys. Great content as always!
The short key is for a suitcase lock...
Brad I absolutely love your videos I have been watching for a while now and never miss one.. thank u for being part of my life and making me smile with each video.. keep doin what u do 💜
You're absolutely right the best thing about our hobby is you never know what you're going to find congratulation on finding three Silvers in that stream amazing
That dime stuck in the rock just waiting for you to find it. I felt that!
I just love your personality! It shows on camera that you are passionate about discovery and remembering things of the past. First time watcher and new subscriber! Thanks for sharing with us. Travis
Keith from Nashville. Good onya mate. Especially enjoyed the music mix. Always do, but this entro was special. The heat has been brutal here as well. As I watched you in the old swimming hole I could almost see the old timers and even the native people finding and enjoying that beautiful secluded spot. Thanks for taking me along. Blessings to you and your family.
Wow such a stunning place, not surprising that over the years people have gone there to swim and obviously just enjoy the stunning scenery. Abit surprised that we didn't see you metal detecting around the poolside where folk would have probably sat when dressing and undressing. Hayho maybe next time!. As always buddy 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
Very cool! I love the places you go!🌺💕👵✌️
I could get lost in that swimming hole. Its beautiful. Knowing you have not found any trash and very little inside the swimming hole, makes me wonder if someone has not detected that area already.
Thank you Brother for all you do. I appreciate your love for metal detecting 🙏.
