    I enjoy your videos for the scenery as much as the finds. Out of curiosity I had to look up the equivalent value of a penny from 1802 in 2022. It's approximately $2.79.

    Brad what a treasure field. It would be exciting to get ground penatrating radar and map that field so you could get an accurate detail of the home site and out buildings. I'm sure everything is scattered but it would be interesting to see the pattern.
    I'm only suggesting it because the opportunity to have a wide open field with a known 1700's home site doesn't come up too often.

    The glasses piece I recognized as soon as you picked it up. Glasses basically haven't changed in basic design for 300 years. So very cool. And a 1st is always special

    another great day. finding even that much of a pair of colonial glasses is a win. they were, by nature, fragile when new. congrats on another win.

  • @massbayrelicrecoveryMBRR
    @massbayrelicrecoveryMBRR 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    it could be used for a small strap on a horse, however it is a Spectacle Buckle. the exact use of Spectacle Buckles and Trapezoidal Buckles is pretty much unknown,
    but we can be pretty sure that a small leather strap went through.

    Now lets see you get to walk around and see nature's beauty while uncovering some very supercool treasures. Am I a bit envious, yes I am. Makes me really wish I grew up somewhere in the New England area.

  • @paullewis5045
    @paullewis5045 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Brad, At Roxbury there is a riding and tennis camp; Teela Wooket. There was an archery camp there too from the mid 30' to 80's ish.
    The long lawn above the courts was an archery range and golf course and in the hills above the cabins, was a roving range. It was tough ground for shooting. You may find a sign something like "Joe quit here..." I would expect the trails to be very dim now. But, if you can get permission to hunt up there you may be able to find quite a few aluminum arrows and target points. All modern by your standards but may make a nice day in the field.

    I have a lot of catching up to do on all your films because I just found you. I like the softness of your voice and the calm way you act when finding a treasure also, with out flirting, you are easy on the eyes , that is what they say about women I know but you do have a wonderful personality that makes me calm down after a day of screaming and caucus, thank you for the sharing your wonderful experience.

  • @KayInMaine
    @KayInMaine 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It does make you wonder why people were out there. Probably doing the fields or were cutting trees down for the upcoming winter. Dunno but that's the part I love when I look at old items or when you metal detectorists pull something out of the ground.....what was happening at that moment!

  • @peterleray6084
    @peterleray6084 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Boy Brad I'm not so sure that arrow piece belongs to a flintlock. I build them traditionally and can't think of an area that it would go. Especially the lugs on the back with the drilled holes. It's got me thinkin!

    Of all the metal detectorists on TH-cam you are and will always be my all time favourite….! The way you tell about the history of an item found, the chill music, beautiful scenery, and always the little suspense you keep us in when you spotted a treasure!☺️ Don’t ever change your format, it is just perfect the way it is….Thank you very much!😉 GL and HH on your next adventure Brad.🍀🍀🍀 Blessings send from a big fan in Canada 🙏🏼♥️👋🏼🇨🇦

  • @elizabethscruggs1622
    @elizabethscruggs1622 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    All of my family's civil war eye glasses were so small and they did have round lenses. I know your fragment is older but our 1850s glasses were so tiny. I often wondered why they were so small and my mama mentioned they are solid gold. That might be why lol. Hopefully one day you find an entire pair. Love watching you Brad and thanks for sharing 👍

  • @richardlusk1715
    @richardlusk1715 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't know about in the 1700s but in the 1800s alot of the glasses, the frames were made of platinum .great finds today,great content, and as always, Great RESPECT for History and your Landowner..
    THANKS FOR SHARING..

    You truly have a gift for making us feel like we are there exploring and digging relics together. I beach comb Lake Champlain for glass and pottery. It never ceases to amaze me after going back back to certain spots over time that I find pieces that match earlier finds. It’s a puzzle of sorts. The lake is especially interesting in that regard given the way water displaces and erodes these tiny pieces of historical treasure over the decades and centuries.

    I keep thinking that Brad should give Morgan Gold a call. Detecting his farm might not produce the really old, but I expect he'd like to know more about its history. Or maybe I'm just crazy, but Vermont's a small state.

    You may be just a *slightly* professional archaeologist, but you deliver so much practical, very specialised information so very well in a manner that I think a lot of pro arcaheologists would respect. (ducks for cover) Just an unqualified opinion... Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Thanks for the high quality things you produce. They enrich many lives.
