Hey Folks! For daily and up-to-date posts, I invite you to join the Green Mountain community outside of TH-cam! My website: www.GMMD.us Facebook: Facebook.com/GreenMountainMetalDetecting Instagram: @Green.Mountain.Metal.Detecting.
I always click the “LIKE” button during the intro music without having seen your video! I am never disappointed! Great video Brad! By the way since your videos have given me insight on knowing the difference between forged or cast iron, I have been able to identify a few of my finds and date them to the proper time period. The striation in the forged metal makes sense as the metal was heated and hammered repeatedly. I recently gave all my historical finds to a local historical society and the curator invited me to detect a dirt crawl space of the 1834 stone building in which they operate.Thanks!
Me too on the 'Like' button. GMMD is where I come for peace and escape from the madness going on in the world of today. My metal detecting days are long past but so enjoy Brad's and thank him for sharing. The music, the scenery, his calm voice, and the treasures of the past that he shares are priceless.
Brad, there are no videos that compare to yours, and your music grips the soul like an old friend. Looks like you found your best detector yet!! Thank you for taking us there! 🤗😊
Can't help but agree with you Brad...... half the fun is finding treasure, the other half is the thrill of research and matching it to the timeline history of the site. Good luck, happy hunting and stay safe Brad... from Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿.
Good morning! I found an ID for an object that you uncovered a while back. It’s Viking! You thought it might have been for sewing. Go to this TH-cam video: Vikings: Live from the British Museum. At 34:25, you will find your item included in a hoard of Viking treasure on display!! I almost dropped my coffee cup...lol. Congratulations!!! An excellent find...😁👍
FOR ALL THE WALKING AND ENERGY YOU PUT IN, IM ALWAYS GLAD TO SEE YOU GET SOMETHING'S OUTTA ALL THAT DIRT 😊 GOOD ONYA BRAD, ENJOYABLE AS ALWAYS. CAMILLE AUSTRALIA 👋
Hi Brad, your my favourite. Love the nature photos, as much as your finds. Shows you have an appreciation for nature, as well the hunting of lost treasures. Kerp going, keep well.
Your videos get better and better quality great job looks like such a fun hobby i bet you cant wait to bring the little man with you and have him swinging love the vlogs as well thank you for sharing your hobby and daily life good luck
I only recently started following you but I have to say that I am impressed with your knowledge, your respect for the history that you are exploring and something perhaps missed by some, your love of nature in all its forms. I look forward to your postings and wish you all the best in these crazy times.
Hi Brad! I grew up in Bethel in the late 50’s, 60’s and honestly we did not have black flies! I think Maine sent them over... We did have annoying little gnats but they didn’t bite like those voracious black flies! Anyway I love watching your adventures in Vermont. I may live in Maine now but my heart is in Vermont.
Three suspenders and a bullet sounds like a new song title. Great to see the new Deus is bringing you new finds. Thanks for great Friday woods forages!
Brad I always look forward to your videos. Enjoy the history and the historical items you find. And the great music. Thanks for taking us along. Michael from Georgia.
Spring here in Phoenix ,Arizona too. Going to be 112 degrees (f) today and nearly every day now on until late Oct.. We don't have mosquito's or flie's. Too dry. Got lots of old gold and silver mines and old western ghost towns for you to metal detect though. My wife and I enjoy your videos.
Brad, glad your new detector picked up finds among the iron that your AT could not. You might have to start visiting some of your other heavy iron sites, and give them a go again. Another great video! Keep em coming! Rob / Flthunder
The little spoon may have been a teaspoon, for tea. Germans use them for sugar in the tea and for stirring the tea. We bought all the equipment for metal detecting but it's been 102 degrees here and we'll have to wait for the temp. to come down. Very fun. We enjoy your channel.
Awesome. Thank you listened to your Music, really impressed. Music is my love in life. Finds seems the detector is working good. Be safe & tc. Love Fridays helps start of a weekend.
Hi Brad, some lovely finds, I loved that little spoon it looked like an old English teaspoon. The only thing I can think that oval piece of lead is it could probably be a cuff link ???. Thanks for sharing your day. x
I don't know how you make it back home every time without getting lost and ending up here in Michigan for example lol. I just love your videos and i wear my t shirt i bought from you quite a bit. I've even heard someone say "did you see her t shirt? Thats a Brad fan". Lol.
As you were talking about it, that was my first thought, an ice pic of some sort. That detector seems to be working out well for you. Great video. Stay safe and have a great weekend.
The pick you found is related to timber industry, its the off bearers pick to keep any small pieces of bark or pieces of wood from saw blades or planer blades , some have longer handles to allow safe removal for worker they had to be sharp pointed to stick the wood ! I have used one many times in the mills back in the 60's ! Great Video , Now I have to study the new detector you are using, as the older one I used for getting around nails was the 600b compass years ago , but only a few places I needed it !
Hello GMMD! It's Friday! I love the Chrono bell! Always hoping it has its clapper is in tact. The sliver lead metal piece reminded me of the weights we used fishing. 😊
Morning mountain man. Back im the day the old timers use to use vicks vapor rup as a means of fighting off the black flies. Some off the old bottle dumps are full of them. Wd forty work also.
Hey Brad gotta say I always look forward to your videos! Always fun to watch! I also want to say stick with that XP Deus, I have hundreds of hours on them and you can't beat that machine in the iron. The coil you have is at the top for thick iron! Gonna be interesting to see you go back to some of your sites! Good luck this year!!!
We used to have a camper in up state NY. Black flys were bad there too. We used a product called Freshcab in the camper to help with the mice. We noticed it also helped with black flys and Mosquitoes. We could leave the camper door open and nothing would fly inside. The product comes in a bag like a tea bag. Its all natural. Strong smell.
Brad- so thrilled to see you using an XP Deus. It's my detector of choice and you are correct on the iron separation- it's second to none in heavy iron. You are going to live that machine
Hi Brad! You may have already been told this but one of the suspenders with the hole looks like it came from a corset or garter belt. Used to hold up stockings. I used to wear one in my youth. It would fit over a button and then pulled down slightly. Thanks so much for the videos. I find them very interesting. Take care and many blessings!
Hey Brad, haven't watched to many of your video's lately due to other things happening, but I'm back! Best of luck to you & your family this coming metal detecting season!!
Looks like the Deus is hitting the spot - shame you can't find something like it to fend off the blackflies! Good little finds - surely can't be June with no leaves yet?! Keep safe 🦘👍🐾😎
The iron pick looking thing looks like a buddy handle minus the wood for an old saw. I think some other commenter said the same thing or something similar. Great video Brad
The metal pick thing. I think it would be used for lifting or rolling sawn logs, bang it into the end grain to use as a lift or put it into the side of the log to give leverage to roll the log
My favorite find at any site will always be the Crotal bells 😍 those and Conestoga bells are beautiful, to me ☺ I knew when you'd arrived at the sight when you showed the flower plants, always the sign that a home was there (or so I've heard on many a TH-cam video)! Great collection of finds, awsome fatty 1863 IHP that you found 👍😃 I'm still searching for my 1st IHP 🤷 hopefully 2020 will give me one of my own to find 😁
The little button-like object with the hole in the center reminded me of the end of a lady's hatpin. The bent tree at the beginning brings to mind an audio story I listened to on my way to Oregon a few weeks ago. I think you might like it. I took it on loan from the local library. It's a fictional piece based on fact and called "The Order". It's a hunt for Civil War gold that was buried throughout the south and gives insight as to the markers that were used to point the way to the buried pockets of gold. One such type of marker was bent or misshapen trees. Sometimes buried items pointed the way, such as the blade of a shovel.
AKA "sleigh bell", used mainly in snow, as the sound of the rig is absorbed by snow, the bells, worn in a variety of sizes for maximizing the frequency of sound, to the rhythm of the horses' gaits, report their presence to oncoming rigs. The rosette is the decorative piece which holds firm the broadband to the crown piece, at the sides of the head beneath the ears.
Great composition, Brad. I have seen devices with a metal piece that looked like the pick you found. I think they were used for harvesting sap wood for cork. It reminds me of the pawl on a jack for rolling logs, but it isn’t heavy enough.
Merely relating info from NH: the "pick" is reportedly a scythe blade handle or "buddy handle". I have no personal knowledge of it but I have seen it dug a few times.
As always Brad, you have taken us on another enjoyable Friday morning Green Mountain Adventure to uncover artifacts long forgotten. Thank you for your effort and for allowing us along the trail with you. And, from this Vermonter now living in South Florida, I speak from experience, when I say that Vermont's Mosquitos are only minor aggravations when compared to what we have to deal with along the "Mosquito Coast" of South Florida during our rainy season, which is about to begin. Thanks again.
Never disappoint I love your videos. Maybe the oval lead peice is part of an adornment with the possible amount of horse tack. Doesn't seem like a bail seal. Love all your finds. I also love any information that I can research the possible timeline of the areas activity and where it may come from. Imagining that small glimpses into the lives of the past. Great video, thanks for all your talented efforts.
That little "pick" looks to be a "pick axe" used to roll and pull logs!!! The log would have been in a pond, and they were used to straighten the log for a trip down stream or into a mill, I seem to think there is another name for it, but I can't quite bring it to mind, the darned meds cause brain farts!!!! Anyway that's what that is used for!!!
@@markmorris3579 Exactly right. I have one I use while cutting firewood. I whack it into the end of a piece of firewood and lift it up and put it under one arm and then whack it into another piece and lift it up off the ground and walk off with both pieces and never had to bend over to pick them up. Back saving tool for an old man. Have had one for years.
I have to agree with you about the black flies Brad. I got destroyed by them up in Northern Ontario a couple weeks ago, no spray worked at all, and I've tried them all. Great work bud!!
Another awesome video and the wood pecker in the back ground was the large Pleated Woodpecker. Also may I recommend the natural bug spray by JOCO Botanicals. Very good repellent and all natural...and smells great! You do not need any of that nasty DEET in your system. Blessings, Mike in sunny Florida
The XP Deus is a great investment try using the 3rd program in heavily ironed areas. Also I use the bug repellent thermacell. Thanks for bringing us on another adventure.
Thrill of the Treasure I own both. I use mostly the 800 now. I’ve got the small coil on the DEUS and use it as Brad suggested around iron infested cellar holes. DEUS is a button daddy. I think the better value is the Nox. DEUS is a performant machine but since the brains are in the coil it’s expensive to add coils.... bad design in my opinion
At the 9:30 mark the iron relic you found that looks like a spike on the end is actually a candle holder there are several variety types the one you have would have been drove into a tree and a candle place in it for light. Some of the other types would have the spike and a bend in it so it could be placed in a tree or stuck into the ground as the elbow candle holders are more common to find around civil war camps that the soldiers utilized where as the type you have is colonial era and only had the one function. Once ran thru electrolysis and preserved they make beautiful relics I do believe you can find them in several books that pertain to early american iron relics.
Hi Brad, pretty good day of detecting. Wonderful assortment of relics. Apparently, your new equipment worked well today. Everything worked well today in your video, like always. Enjoy the upcoming hikes . Take care, Joyce. Connecticut 🇺🇸. ARROW *🎱

The iron artifact at 9:16 appears to be a pickaroon. They are used in logging for various purposes
I'm not on Facebook. I was wondering why a comment question several videos back was never answered.
Laura it’s been my experience that Brad rarely answers comments. I’m sure it’s not personal.

The best parts of your videos are: um, everything, the montage, the music, the information, and the scenery. Thanks!
That iron tool is called a pickaroon. It’s still used in logging today for moving smaller logs around.
Enjoy your videos. They are very well done . Apreciate Your knowledge about what you find and where you dig. Your mountains are beautiful.
I love watching you Brad.You find so many different things.
Brad, there are no videos that compare to yours, and your music grips the soul like an old friend.
Looks like you found your best detector yet!! Thank you for taking us there! 🤗😊

Really enjoy the artifacts and relics you find in the mountains.
Thank you again for a great video. Great shots of folate. Great finds ...
You rock!
The unidentified iron piece is a scythe nib. It would slide down the handle and hold a smaller wooden piece for the second hand grip.
Three suspenders and a bullet sounds like a new song title. Great to see the new Deus is bringing you new finds. Thanks for great Friday woods forages!
Good evening from Sydney Australia always enjoy your clips, the places you venture into looks stunning
Thanks for taking me with :)
I just started detecting, your videos are a huge inspiration.
Please do an episode on all the "Mystery" Items you have found, this way maybe we can solve those.
Good trip. I see the trillium is popping. You have a great eye for natures simple and inconspicuous beauty. Nice video.
I wonder if those ornate buckles were worn on the gentlemens scarves?
Have you tried the Appachalians' way of bug deterrence.....Vicks Vapor Rub
Love when you find a whole bell and your reaction. Pure joy for me also
Brad I always look forward to your videos. Enjoy the history and the historical items you find. And the great music. Thanks for taking us along. Michael from Georgia.
Always enjoy your videos. I respect your professional approach to metal detecting and creating an interesting approach to the hobby.
Excellent job, your video’s never disappoint. Thanks for taking us along.

Another awesome hunt on the tube 😃✌️
So enjoy your adventures! You do a wonderful job giving details, explanations in covering the historical sites!
Awesome. Thank you listened to your Music, really impressed. Music is my love in life. Finds seems the detector is working good. Be safe & tc. Love Fridays helps start of a weekend.
Very nice variety of finds. Tells a lot about the people who lived here. Good hunt.
Hi Brad, some lovely finds, I loved that little spoon it looked like an old English teaspoon. The only thing I can think that oval piece of lead is it could probably be a cuff link ???. Thanks for sharing your day. x
All kinds of great finds on this adventure Brad! Glad the new detector is doing so well for you 🤗
I don't know how you make it back home every time without getting lost and ending up here in Michigan for example lol. I just love your videos and i wear my t shirt i bought from you quite a bit. I've even heard someone say "did you see her t shirt? Thats a Brad fan". Lol.
Mystery lead piece, Bail seal? The line was the wire and the hole is where the twist connection was that it was sealing.

Good luck this year!!!
I am pretty certain that woodpecker call is a pileated woodpecker, largest in North America. It was the model for Woody Woodpecker.
I've heard those pick tools referred to as a pickaroon. It's used to maneuver logs.
9:30 pickaroon used for sorta picking/rolling logs and rounds of wood without leaning over and hurting your lower back.
We used to have a camper in up state NY. Black flys were bad there too. We used a product called Freshcab in the camper to help with the mice. We noticed it also helped with black flys and Mosquitoes. We could leave the camper door open and nothing would fly inside. The product comes in a bag like a tea bag. Its all natural. Strong smell.
Great relics Brad. That coil is like a laser beam on the deus. Perfect for those cella sites. TC, Mike
9:15 .... any chance this could be a candle stick holder you would drive into the wall off your log cabin?
Is so that could be why the cabin is gone
Brad- so thrilled to see you using an XP Deus. It's my detector of choice and you are correct on the iron separation- it's second to none in heavy iron. You are going to live that machine
That little piece of led looks like a seal that goes over a moneybag or other important bag.
It’s lead

As soon as i hear your music and the sounds and noise of nature i breathe better
The metal pick thing. I think it would be used for lifting or rolling sawn logs, bang it into the end grain to use as a lift or put it into the side of the log to give leverage to roll the log
Loving your new detector finding loads of stuff 😁 Black flies are horrible
My favorite find at any site will always be the Crotal bells 😍 those and Conestoga bells are beautiful, to me ☺ I knew when you'd arrived at the sight when you showed the flower plants, always the sign that a home was there (or so I've heard on many a TH-cam video)! Great collection of finds, awsome fatty 1863 IHP that you found 👍😃 I'm still searching for my 1st IHP 🤷 hopefully 2020 will give me one of my own to find 😁
Sometimes we must look outside our own backyards to realize how big the world is and how blessed we are.
so sorry you have to deal with those black flies i dont know how you do it. great finds love the crotto bell i hope i find one some day.
The little button-like object with the hole in the center reminded me of the end of a lady's hatpin.

Thank you! I am somewhat new to your channel and have seen quite a few episodes and wondered why you wear the scarf, even in the summer. Now I know!
AKA "sleigh bell", used mainly in snow, as the sound of the rig is absorbed by snow, the bells, worn in a variety of sizes for maximizing the frequency of sound, to the rhythm of the horses' gaits, report their presence to oncoming rigs.

Hey Brad! Have you ever tried using a head net? I used them when I fished up in Canada.
Great composition, Brad. I have seen devices with a metal piece that looked like the pick you found. I think they were used for harvesting sap wood for cork. It reminds me of the pawl on a jack for rolling logs, but it isn’t heavy enough.
Merely relating info from NH: the "pick" is reportedly a scythe blade handle or "buddy handle". I have no personal knowledge of it but I have seen it dug a few times.
Looks like the tool is is a picaroon, pickaroon seems both spellings are considered correct. It's a logging tool.
That p-word might be on the no-go list!
Pickaroon was my first thought as well.
picaroon is correct and the correct and very old word.
Yep....I have one.
@Eric Ferguson Drive in into a log in order to drag the log, instead of lifting one end of the log to carry it or to apply a chain.
Another interesting day !👍

Not bad again !! Looks good ! What about the gold in the quartz rock ? LOL.
Hey, Brad. Love your videos. I’ve had success repelling gnats by rubbing vanilla on the bottom of my hat brim, might work for your black flies.
Never disappoint I love your videos. Maybe the oval lead peice is part of an adornment with the possible amount of horse tack. Doesn't seem like a bail seal. Love all your finds. I also love any information that I can research the possible timeline of the areas activity and where it may come from. Imagining that small glimpses into the lives of the past. Great video, thanks for all your talented efforts.
That little "pick" looks to be a "pick axe" used to roll and pull logs!!! The log would have been in a pond, and they were used to straighten the log for a trip down stream or into a mill, I seem to think there is another name for it, but I can't quite bring it to mind, the darned meds cause brain farts!!!! Anyway that's what that is used for!!!
Picaroon or hookaroon
@@markmorris3579 Exactly right. I have one I use while cutting firewood. I whack it into the end of a piece of firewood and lift it up and put it under one arm and then whack it into another piece and lift it up off the ground and walk off with both pieces and never had to bend over to pick them up. Back saving tool for an old man. Have had one for years.
Cant hook
Some good finds lots more than usual
Awsome finds my friend always enjoy yourvideos
I have to agree with you about the black flies Brad. I got destroyed by them up in Northern Ontario a couple weeks ago, no spray worked at all, and I've tried them all. Great work bud!!
Try White mountain repellent, it actually works on black flies. I can usually find it at Agway or hardware stores in NH.
Another awesome video and the wood pecker in the back ground was the large Pleated Woodpecker. Also may I recommend the natural bug spray by JOCO Botanicals. Very good repellent and all natural...and smells great! You do not need any of that nasty DEET in your system. Blessings, Mike in sunny Florida
The XP Deus is a great investment try using the 3rd program in heavily ironed areas. Also I use the bug repellent thermacell. Thanks for bringing us on another adventure.
I’m looking right now to purchase a new machine and everything I hear and see is about the Equinox 800. Any thoughts on the Deus versus 800?
Thrill of the Treasure I own both. I use mostly the 800 now. I’ve got the small coil on the DEUS and use it as Brad suggested around iron infested cellar holes. DEUS is a button daddy. I think the better value is the Nox. DEUS is a performant machine but since the brains are in the coil it’s expensive to add coils.... bad design in my opinion
The lead thing kind of looks like a bag seal, either for fertilizer or feed?
At the 9:30 mark the iron relic you found that looks like a spike on the end is actually a candle holder there are several variety types the one you have would have been drove into a tree and a candle place in it for light.

Great finds.
I've seen picks like that, used to move lumber in a green chain, at a saw mill. Good calls on everything. Great video!
