- Today we head off to an old ghost town in Wyoming to do some relic hunting and gold panning. Once a mining town, all that remains now are a few timbers and mine shafts. Hold on to your hats because this is the windiest video ever! xoxoxoxoxo, Gin

Thank you so much Mike! What a nice surprise. 💖🍀
The mystery item looks like a razor blade dispenser….
Injector razor
Single blade dispenser
Looks like a blade dispenser by I don’t remember them being copper unless the first ones were
I remember when disposable blades were sold in that type of gadget. I think they came with 5 blades.
I remember my Granddad used those..
The box with a tab on it is a Schick single edge razor blade dispenser. And the flat piece with slots is correctly identified as part of a rubber boot latch/buckle
Thanks for comment coming from a peer viewer. Never seen a dispenser as such but did sense mechanical action in some fashion.
No fair ! I thought it was a Jewish harp ?
You can look that Patent Number up online. I couldn't quite make it out from the video. That decanter top is very nice but may have been clear when it was made. The element manganese found within old antique glass will remain colorless as long as it does not oxidize to form manganese oxide. However, radiation from the sun will cause manganese to oxidize. Glass exposed to sunlight for a long period of time will turn purple if it contains manganese. I have an old early 1900's Straight Sided Coca-Cola bottle that was exposed to sun over a long period and it is exactly the same color as your decanter top. LOVE your videos! You're the best! Blessings!
The item at 14:30 is a razor blade refill injector. I had one!!! Just dated myself. The ones I used were Schick. That razor was given to me by my father who was in WWII. Nice Video.
Very cool - thank you.🙂🍀
Ive been detecting 35 yrs and i have never dug a pinfire cartridge. Rare and awesome
The large timber had to of been brought in from some distance away, the trees in the area of your hunt don't grow tall nor straight. The drone footage was a nice addition as well.
Wow ! Fun hunt in the Wild Wild West ! I really like the purple glass decanter stopper !! Thanks Lucky Gin !!🍻
Very relaxing and enjoyable to watch. Thanks for filming it!
What a Beautiful old place to dig! I love the round balls you found Gin but that purple Cross decanter stopper is awesome! Congratulations 💟🥂
Hey, Gin…another interesting hunt. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
Absolutely LOVE your videos!!! Keep up the great work!!!
So cool. Loved the salon music in the background.
Something cool about looking at old metal pieces on weathered wood. Great job. Keep Freedom Alive.
Your enthusiasm is infectious even with such modest finds. 💐
Loving your channel!! Been watching almost since you started. You definitely have me intrigued in all these adventures. Have a great weekend!
Awww, how cool to hear that! Thanks for joining me for all my adventures. I appreciate you being part of the journey.💖🙂🍀
That metal thing that is flat and 5 punches out of it looks like a buckle from rain boots. I had a pair when I was a kid. One side had a tongue piece you put in one of those holes then you push it down to lock it. Depending on which one you choose you can make your boots tighter or looser. I hope that helps.
Black rubber Golashes (what we called em')...Damned things never worked for very long and really didn't keep your feet warm!!! 😆!!!
Beautiful drone footage!!! I really like the part where you hopped over the creek. Congrats on your 1st musket balls Gin. Happy hunting and be well
Interesting finds great show. Went detecting also found 2.00 in clad in the same park, I visited 100 times! Happy treasure seeking Lucky Gin ☘️😀
Great hunt Gin, I hope you are enjoying the west.
Love the Drone footage! You found some good stuff Girl! The smaller ball thing with the Round Balls you found looks like a Buck and Ball. I found a few at a Ghost Town here in Texas. Not 100% sure, but that's what it looks like to me. Have a GREAT weekend! God bless!
Hi Gin...those rivets look like the old Levi Strauss jackets from back in the day...Great find...Wyoming great place to hunt relics...
The elixer bottle stopper is a great find, with the bottle you would have an excellent piece.
Hey lucky Gin, wish it was still cold here I'm frying, I love hunting old sites you're at a beautiful place out there, cool footage Gin. Keep cranking them vids. 👍🤠
Great video...musket balls were cool. Loved the purple decanter lid..keep up great videos. Can't wait see your next stop 😊 be safe out there..
Thank you, Annette. It’s nice to see you drop by.🙂 I’ve been really lucky to add a lot of firsts to my list on this trip.🍀
The drone view at the beginning of the video shows the beauty of this country for those who slow down enough to enjoy it. Wyoming is history and beauty combined. Wonderful video!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the drone footage, David. I wholeheartedly agree that Wyoming is an incredibly beautiful place. I so love the remote places and unspoiled beauty.💖🙂🍀
The drone footage over the water was my favourite part. I had to crank the volume a bit but the player piano in the background was a nice touch. Hard to believe the place was booming at one point. Have a good weekend!
I’m excited about being able to add the drone footage. I’m hoping it makes the videos more interesting for everyone. The location was quite remote; makes you wonder how on earth half these locations were ever discovered to begin with.🍀
@@LuckyGin I am sure you will be at a million subs in no time with your cinematography.
Very nice, subscribed, like, great outdoors stuff, where the real treasure is.
A big welcome to you, James.🤗 I’m so glad you are here!🍀
Great video Gin!!! Awesome hunt. More luck for you Lady!
🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀! and a vase to keep them lucky! 🏆
Peace Lady!!!
A great way to start my Friday evening off. Thank you for another great episode.
Thanks for popping by to check out the latest, Steve.🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin I would not have missed it. You put out clean family fun, thank you.
Looks like quite a fun adventure…chilly too. Love the lavender glass.
It was definitely that. I had to take a couple days off and run down to the Grand Canyon to warm up!🤣
Awesome hunt! Thanks for all the videos!
Thanks so much, Tim. 🙂🍀
THIS OLD MAN CAN'T DECIDE WHICH IS MORE BEAUTIFUL. YOU OR THE VIEW OF THE MOUNTAINS FROM YOUR DRONE.
Awesome video Gin! Congrats on your finds!
Thanks so much, Chris. It’s always great to see you pop by my channel.🙌🙂🍀
Great finds Gin!! I absolutely love the decanter top!! I love the crosses on it!! Very cool!! If you ever decide to sell it, will you let me know? Love the half horse shoe!! Of course that's because I own horses. I like the muskat balls!! Those were cool!! Beautiful country out there!! I hope to visit out west sometime in my lifetime!! I would like to ride horses out there!! Keep the videos coming!! Love-em!!
Thanks for popping in and joining me on the latest adventure, Jodi. Every time I’m out there I think how cool it would be to ride horses there; maybe at some point I’ll be heading to a spot that’s so remote you have to go by horse. That would be an adventure!😍🍀
Loved this video Gin!! Too bad the purple decanter wasn't with the top! That piece is gorgeous! Great finds! Watching you and everyone else in coats in jackets while it's 100 outside today here in Texas is so strange! Makes me jealous! I LOVE the cooler/colder weather!
I'm just north of San Antonio, triple digits all week long!!! 🌞🏜️🌡️🔥😲!!!!
You have improved soooo much with your detecting techniques. Much more effective. Yay for Gin
Thanks so much Joseph. It’s been a steep learning curve for sure.🙂🍀
Just had your channel randomly pop up and checked it out. Great content and subscribed! Born and raised in Wyoming, I’ve been rockhounding for as long as I can remember. My family and I go out nearly every weekend “weather permitting” all over the state, truly some great treasures to be found!
Fantastic! I’m so glad you are here. I’m lucky enough to be able to visit Wyoming at least once each year, and love to go rockhounding out there.🙂 it’s an amazing state and I never seem to have enough time when I visit.💖
The first bullet looks like a pin-fire casing. very rare. Also 2 different calibers musket balls, at least the user was not alone .All neat stuff, Great finds and safe days ~ B
So much fun watching you find the coolness hidden in the ground there
Thanks for stopping by to join in the fun, Mandy.🙂🙌🍀
It's amazing where you find pull tabs they l wouldn't have thought they would be in a ghost town
Hey there! I just subscribed to your channel. I like the simple, honest approach you have to metal detecting on your channel. It is a great way to spend the day and have a little adventure. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Michael. Welcome - I’m so glad you are here.🙌🙂🍀
When you go metal detecting and you come most prettiest eyes and the prettiest smile you have found a treasure that is so precious best for sure
Great video...thank you for sharing! This brought back a lot of memories for me, as I was stationed in Cheyenne, Wyoming for seven years (1990-1997). I miss seeing those rolling prairies, and the wild antelope! I came across your channel yesterday, and watched many of your beach outings, and I love your channel! I would love to be able to get out to land like you were on in this video... I'm surprised you didn't find any buckles, buttons, or other1800's items. Anyways, keep up the great work, I look forward to seeing more of your uploads, and I'm glad you had such a wonderful time on your adventure! You have a new subscriber! 🙂
Welcome Robert! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. I love Wyoming and go at least once a year for some adventure. It’s one of my favorite places.🙂
Howdy Gin!!! That piece with the writing on it, patent pending etc, looks real old, even 1800s, jmho. Love the drone action, the mine entrance, that was really cool. Out on the range like you were would figure bullets and shell casings lying around. I'm still waiting to see you pull up that awesome old gold coin. Great show!!!
Hello my friend, and thank you for stopping by to check out the latest video.🙌🙂 I don’t think I’ll be able to contain myself the day I finally find a gold coin, but I’m very much looking forward to it.🍀🍀🍀
I would love to metal detect an area like that nice relics a three ringer bullet thanks for sharing take care and be safe 👍 😀 😊
Your ariel photography is excellent. It's a really cool place to be metal detecting. Congratulations on the musket balls and the three-ring bullet. Square nails were created from the late 1700s until about 1830. I think they not only help date the area but are interesting relics in themselves. Today, we take nails for granted. However, back in the 1700s, nails were precious. People would even burn down unused buildings just to get the nails. As others have stated, the box with a tab is a probably Schick single-edge razor blade dispenser, probably 1950s+. All in all, one of your best hunts.
Thank you; I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the drone footage. I go to some incredibly beautiful places and wanted to be able to share the experience with others. I’ve never heard anyone mention how rare nails once were. Thank you for sharing that. My love of metal detecting has opened up so many new chapters of learning when it comes to history. I really appreciate the information you take the time to share.💖🙂🍀
I just love the ambience audio in this vid. That soft, almost unhearable saloon style piano really help lift the history of the place, well edited!
Thanks so much, Jimmy. It’s really nice that you noticed the details that went into creating this video.🙂🍀
Yer "harmonica reed" looks like an old rubber boot buckle. Love yer videos!
It looks like great fun.
Great finds Gin,, Keep up the good hunt.
Thanks my friend!🙂🍀
Good digging!
It looks like you were on the wild frontier! Congrats on all of those bullet casings and the musket balls! HH. Don't get windswept away!
It sure was! I’m imagining some old hermit miner shooting those bullets at claim jumpers. 🙃 Places like that really get your imagination going.🍀
Great video,I have lived all over Wyoming and still live here and yes the wind blows.
Boy does that wind blow! It’s fine down in the valleys but get out on those big, open areas and holy smokes!
What a great unique area to hunt. I could spend hours hunting that place. Take care
Looked like a sweet hunt, Gin, well done!
Thanks so much, Gil. I appreciate you stopping by my channel.🙂🍀
Kool finds!! The lavender glass stopper is probably my favorite! Did I see snow on the side of a hill??!!
Great video! 😃🇫🇮
Awesome bottle stopper. Turned purple from sitting in the sun for a hundred years 💜
Thank you. I thought it was really neat to find it out in such a remote spot.🙂
Hi Jenny, sorry that I am a year late, my brother Juice sent me, Juice, in who to I refer as, the Juiceman!!! recommended that we check out your channel. I am glad that I did, and I liked what I viewed, such as, I enjoyed things about our past history, like old, abandoned buildings, old, abandoned mines of all kinds and old abandoned towns plus, old battle fields for metal detecting. Basically, I think old items and old structures are cool, and there may be some interesting things to uncover when you metal detect those old places. I just hope that they are not metal detected all out! but it is the thrill of the hunt and getting out. KUDOS to your channel, I just subscribed to your channel and will view your other videos, Greg the Egg. PS, the one item I believe, that you found, if you can recall back, is an old razor blade refill suspenser for the old-time shavers.
Hi Gregory! I’m so glad to have you pop by and join the fun….sounds like we have a nutty friend in common.🤣 He’s really great, isn’t he?!
Awesome video as always Gin.
🙌 Thank you 🙌
Love your videos!! The glass stopper with the lavender color was probably just clear glass. If exposed to the sun for many years the older clear glass will turn that color.. it is common to find old lighting balls on roofs to have changed to that color. Enjoy your great adventure.
Thank you Terry.🙂. You’ve got my curiosity up now and I have to google these balls you mentioned. I’ve never seen/heard of them.🍀
Good Finds out there in the Wild West so far, keep Swinging and Digging and You'll get Beyond the junk, that Copper thing is an old Razor blade Dispenser, Happy Hunting Gin Stay Safe Out There🍀
Nice to see you pop by Keith.🙂. It’s been fun to have the chance to find some rare relics.🍀
It was good hunt gin and you had nice finds and done great job with your video and I enjoy it to. have great Week and good Luck to you.
Thank you my friend.🙂 I appreciate you stopping by to share the latest adventure.🍀
I always wanted to shoot the piano player in those cowboy films I still do ! Heehee. I am Scottish and I usually watch the mudlarkers finding things on the Thames England and Northern mudlarkers from Britain who are daughter and mum team finding all kinds of old bottles etc, they also make jewellery out of their finds. Thanks for your vid , great to see dry land 😀
I enjoy checking out the mudlarkers too. It would be so much fun to visit europe and give that a go! Thanks for stopping by my channel.🙌🙂
That topper was an awesome find! 🎚
Thank you; I thought it was really cool.🙂🍀
I lived in Wyoming for a while, your having a no lean day, no leaning into the 40 + mile an hour wind day 😅. Great video ...
You were in Lewiston Wyoming on Strawberry Creek, and then the Sweetwater River. There was gold found there, but a lot of "salting" occurred and worthless claims sold. The Hidden Hand Mine was up on the hill with a very large ore mill.
LG another fascinating hunt. Must be amazing to be able to hint each site. How in the world did you ever work this out? Thanks for the fun!!!
Hi from EVE in the UK, just found this video, very entertaining thanks, I can't help but thinking you sound very much like Dolly parton, looking forward to watching more of your videos 👍
Hi EVE, thanks for popping by to join the fun. You must have a very good ear for dialects because I actually hail from the same area as Mrs Dolly.🙂
Hi from Australia just subscribed. The big bullet looked like a martini henry bullet 1880ish. Great video very interesting.
Welcome Kris! I appreciate you joining the fun.🙂🍀
Lots of cool finds. I would think you would find some old coins but maybe they have been picked up already. Maybe that bucket of dirt will turn into something good!
I really thought maybe one of us would find a coin, but nobody did. I was a bit surprised by that.
Your mystery item is actually an adjustment strap for pull over rubber overshoes,The other end has a little tab that goes into that to tighten em up,,, love your videos
Thanks Benny - I appreciate you popping by to check out my videos.🤗🍀
You're right. That may be a harmonica comb. The reed plate fits over that.
Wow you guys are really out in the boonies! Hot and windy here South Dakota too, but at least the ground is still fairly good. Happy hunting - Ro
PS Love the drone footage :)
The boonies are the best. 🙂🍀 Thanks for popping by to check out the latest.🙌
It is interesting to see you in my home State. To me the wind gets old. At least you were not blown over. lol.
I can definitely see how the wind would wear on you there. There were a couple times when it almost did blow me over!😰
@@LuckyGin The one good thing about the wind here is that you don't have to spend too much time fixing up your hair, each & everyday. The wind will mess it up in no time.
That's not a horseshoe part, that's a shoe half for an ox. It seems your Western trek has been very exciting so far. I hope it exceeds your greatest expectations. It's nice to see you detecting in an area near where I grew up it brings back lots of memories for me. I know right where you're at I was there a couple of times.
Obviously your muff is working better and yes, that is a razor blade dispenser, probably Schick. Great trip! Thanks!
Definitely it was working, but still struggled against the extreme wind depending on how I turned. There was a couple times where it literally almost blew me over!
Nice find 👍
Thanks Paul!🍀
Don’t you just love that gentle Wyoming wind makes every day so pleasant
Oh yes, and the cold just added to it’s “Gentle” charm.🤣
Keep those vids coming Gin. Its the only way we know that Big Foot did not get you. LOL!! :)
It would be like the ransom of red chief; Bigfoot would pay someone to take me back. 😜🤣😂
@@LuckyGin I never read the Book: The Ransom of Red Chief Gin.!!! But if I were Big Foot I would take you back. :) hehehehe!!!!
Nice to see that you have someone who knows how to take good video camera pictures & lets you do all the talking in your videos thats what I like to see. Some of the other guys that take metal detecting videos are not very good at it & they need to learn to move there cameras slower. I like watching your detecting videos & I always give you a thumbs up. I see you have the same detector that i just bought last month & I love the way it operates. I see you were talking to the richmond digger I know that guy hes new to detecting out here in Richmond. The drone camera work is very well done. Keep up the good work & good luck on your finds.
The cameraman will appreciate your comment. He does a great job and I drag him all over in some extreme weather conditions. That F75 detector is a good work horse; I’ve had a lot of fun with it this year.🙂
The ball ammunition that includes one ball the size of buckshot suggests a civil war load called "buck and ball", which was two rounds of buckshot with one ball. American civil war was a long distance from Wyoming. Maybe Indian Wars relics.
Great job looked like fun to me 😊
Thank you! I appreciate you visiting my channel.🙂
@@LuckyGin ya it cool what you do , thanks for making them.
Welcome to big, wonderful, WINDY, Wyld-oming!
It definitely lived up to that on this trip!🙂
I'm glad you was wearing weighted shoes so you didn't blow away lol, but on a serious note you found some cool items and looks like you had a great time. Can't wait to see more great videos. And Stay safe out there.
It really was a great trip with so many fun hunts. If that wind had gotten any worse I would have needed weighted shoes! Lol
❤️ to go metal detecting with you.
injector for changing razer blades / the long thin part opened , released the blade in razer head so new blade could be installed from the square box !
Well done on the finds enjoyed the video
Thanks for stopping by my friend.🍀
That topper is cool 😎 factor of 10 on my scale nice find
I really loved that find too. One of my favorites of the day.🙂
Razor dispenser, they were used to insert a new blade while pushing out the old blade. The handle looking portion is actually should be hollow but may still have some old blades in it so be careful.
Wyoming is so beautiful! Would love to go back one day
I adore it and go at least once a year. Such a beautiful place!🙂
@@LuckyGin I have always loved Wyoming and Montana. They are both very gorgeous states with a lot of history.
Very nice video. Wyoming is a lot different landscape than what we have in the south
It sure is, David. I love how you can just walk right up to the edge of a river there. They don’t have to fight through thick underbrush and battle trees the whole time.🙂
The copper item with a slot in it reminds me of a pump organ reed. If so, there may be a letter indicating what the note is, some where centered on it. Great hunt! :)
I’m going to have to get out the magnifier and take a closer look now. 🙂 Hope you are doing well my friend.🍀
Good job. I didnt get any detecting done on my trip west but I may look into planning a detector trip out west instead of rocks :).
It sounds like you got some great rocks though. I’d love to go opal hunting!
Hi the white little button is a old one that the lady’s wore. It’s more like made out of Ivory. Cheers
Hi Gin, just subscribed, found a pair of 1930s Rubber Galoshes on US eBay for sale. Nice picture of the buckles in situ. Take a look.
We find those in the UK too. Most think they are harmonica reeds. So thanks to those who id’d them here as buckles for rubber boots/galoshes. Very useful. We pull up similar stuff here except that we also pull up stuff from hundreds or thousands of years ago if we get lucky 👍👍👍
I will correct the UK guys
Fantastic! I’m so glad you are here.🙂🙌🍀. I would never have guessed that was off boots, but it seems to be the case. Amazing the things you learn from metal detecting.
@@LuckyGin Yes, same here, I learnt a couple of things from your dig. I suspect there are some epic items out there and a hoard or two. I recently found an early medieval gilded hooked tag about 1200 years old on a beach I have done many times with little luck other than musket balls, and various bullets etc much like your haul. 👍👍👍
Another mystery item. I'm glad PBfirearms knew what it was. I recognized it as something I found years ago, but I had no idea what it was. In that arid area I'm surprised the round balls were that deep.
Back again. If the streams are any indication you could have been near a mountain man trail with muster ball finds.
I think your mistery find is a single edge razor blade holder. The extended portion pushes into the razor then when you slide a new blade in it shoves the used blade out while it's still in the razor and you've just replaced the old with the new. From the looks of it, you may have one of the very first ones made. Nice job
Thanks for weighing in on that Steven. I appreciate you stopping by my channel.🙂🍀
