The eagle pin is a 1929-1934 Girlscout Pin. I just found 5 of them at an old GS house. Count the arrows, if it’s 7 arrows it’s probably a type 3B GS pin
Thank you. I don’t do sponsors and I don’t monetize. The music I use I don’t have a full license for so they have the right to add a small advertisement during the beginning. I’m cool with that since the license is 50.00 per video beyond what I have.
thanks for the great vid. I wish more would use the ground cloth.going over where I have been' with the nox and doing great. just wish I did't have to dig so deep.
Your welcome and glad you enjoyed it. Lol... it’s a good thing you are digging deeper... but I too have noticed I am digging a lot more as well as deeper which adds to fatigue. I’m ok with it though. 🙂 good luck on and upcoming hunts. 👍🏻
Digging in NYC I have learned (the hard way) about target masking. Removing the low tones can sometimes get you to the high tones. Same rule applies with bottle caps and pull tabs!
I try to dig about anything that responds well and is in the artifact later that’s producing older finds (depth). I most folks on here believe I’m targeting coins but I’m actually not a coin collector... I just like finding interesting items. Thanks for checking the video out.
A good couple of day's the other blokes took what they wanted and left you what they didnt want but i think they lost because you got the history of the place thank you for having me along

Your welcome Steven... glad it’s helping with learning the machine. I tend to do the same thing once I have found what is working for me... just make sure to try some stuff besides what I’m doing due to your soil types possibly being very different than mine. It really makes a difference what region you are in and the makeup of your soils.
You killed it on the wheats! Thought for sure there would be a silver pop out. Congrats on the awesome button and the toy cart I'd love to find a bunch of those old toys. Great vid Kenny HH.
Glad you enjoyed it. I try my best to portray the hobby for what it actually is,, with trash and treasure as well as not running around in circles embellishing my excitement to gain attention... hopefully that makes sense. 🙂 keeping it real I guess.
Excellent episode. The 15-17 readings I'm getting bottle tops and had been passing them over in the real trashy areas. Now I'm wondering what I'm leaving behind lol. Thanks for sharing your hunt, knowledge, settings and finds. Always enjoy watching. Take care.
Great video!!! The GS pin is a Girl Scout pin ! Thanks for the ground balance demo. .......... if Whites would use a much faster processor that wouldn’t let the audio become choppy and clipped when recovery was sped up....... it could be a great detector....... but then again you would have to contend with the weight. I had a Whites for 2 years.... HH Tony
You definitely got a lot of cool stuff from that yard, like I said before there’s gotta be silver hiding somewhere with all those wheaties. You should run that 6” coil there when you get it, you are gonna love that coil. Awesome video!
Very nice and thanks for the ID. Wonder how that little toy made it here... it’s really cool and went in my collection. For some reason I like personal finds like that better than coins although finding coins is still a great time.
That’s great your having success with the machine. I really enjoy that it’s light as a feather... really helps with the fatigue. Thanks for checking out the video.
@@squarenailsquirrel9638 I like your style mate.. I came from 4 years on ctx 3030 and wasn't sure nox would impress, boy was I wrong...I live in Northern Australia, we have similar Wild West gold rush era to you guys in States, I live near what was the 'Palmer River Goldfields' I mostly hunt coins and relics.. Cheers HH
Thank you.. I do hunt the curb strips and hunted it in this video as well as the previous one at this site. Sometimes they can produce great finds but they sure are loaded with modern trash as well. Thanks for checking out the video.
Good stuff man. Born and raised in N.E. Ohio then moved to Western Maine where I'm surrounded by tons of stone walls and farm sites. Havin' a blast! Thanks for the video.
Thank you and glad you like the videos. I am from Kentucky and only been here for about 3 years or better. I bet the amount of history you can find up there is awesome.. here.. it's OK but nothing like back home in Kentucky. Really makes a big difference on when folks started settling in the area that you hunt. Thanks for checking the video out.
I haven’t heard anything. She goes by silver dollar digger.. actually met her through Instagram. I believe she has been out detecting since with other interesting finds.
Rooting for some silver for ya, Kenny, but nice elderly group of wheats sure didn't hurt. The USN button took the prize for me. Hard to counter your logic regarding the previous hunters going for the silver. I believe I'd do the same. Thanks for the completion of your two-part mini series. You mention your digger brand but I didn't make out what you said. Very sharp = very kind to the grass.
Very nice , glad to see you use a ground cloth, I always show people the benefits of using one. Just a suggestion, you might try cutting your plugs with a straighter walls. You will ease the risk of tagging a coin especially on the deeper holes. Plus I have seen conical plugs in dryer conditions get sucked out of the ground with commercial mowers. Grass has a better chance for recovery in the dryer season. Did you say you are using old atlases from your area for research?
Thank you for the suggestions and i’ll Take them into considerations. I typically do the circular plugs for speed. When I’m on a site my main goal is to hit as many good responses as I can to raise the probability of interesting finds. Thank you for commenting as well as checking the video out.
Seriously made me laugh. All I can say is you really have to want to use a V3i... otherwise you sell it 2 months after you get it. Mines now 9 years old.
So many wheaties on that hunt. There's definitely more to be found. I'm rooting for you to get the Indian or some silver out of that permission eventually 👍 Thanks for the tutorial and the comparison on the two units. Great video yet again.
Thank you David, I like finding anything out there but I do excited on the older ones. Wheats are great practice as well as tell a story about the families that lived in the house... you can really tell where folks hung out as well as children played. Thanks for the congrats and for checking out the video.
Great video, hunt and a little comparison Squirrel! Nice handful of Wheaties - check the dates, you never know. Cool Girl Scout pin - I've only seen and dug boy scout items. Nox is very unique in it's ability to select good targets mixed in with bad... I've had similar experiences...last weekend dug a bunch of glad dimes - most had rusted iron, bolts or other junk mixed in. I've never listened when they say a site has been hunted. Found plenty with dfx, v3i and now Nox. I guess hunted out means cherry picked for silver 😉 Take care and be safe!
Thank you Linda. That’s true about the key days but I really haven’t ever looked into them much over the years. The hunt for me is mainly just finding “stuff”... I guess... anything interesting. But... I do know that I can check my key dates and get more involved in that part of my hunt now. 🙂🙂 thank you very much for the Red Book.... I’ve actually been through it many times since it arrived. There is endless possibilities for such awesome finds out there. Thank you for checking the video out and especially for sending me a gift. Take care.
Thank you. I was very surprised to have so many good targets. Maybe someday I will go back and try other setting or possibly grab the big equinox coil to see if anything deeper can be gained.
Just found your channel tonight. Great video! Just a suggestion, be careful wiping your coin finds with your glove or a rag. I damaged a 50 cent like that and now use a soft toothbrush and a small spray bottle with water. HH!
Glad you found the channel and enjoyed the video. I generally wipe the copper ones and such.. if it's silver I use a 50/50 mix of alcohol and water that I spray on and let the dirt fall off. Thanks for the suggestion and for checking out the video.
Wow awesome vid loved it...had my Equinox 800 5mnths now and only used ut 30mins hv 2 get out and just use it....love seeing those pennies...im a coin roll hunter so love any coin...thnks for the vid and info
I’d suggest running park one in 5 tones. It really helps lock you into the coin signals, especially if you set the tone breaks up right. If you’re a coin hunter that’s the way to go with the Nox, but if you’re a relic hunter, then digging it all regardless is the best 😁
Very nice suggestion and I like 5 tones as well... like you say it really makes the coin targets pop. So far learning the machine has been fun....there is lots till to try on it to see if it effects the hunt.
My husband and I love watching your channel! We just started getting into detecting and love how you teach everyone what the tips and tricks are! My husband really likes your tool belt and was wondering if you could tell us where you got it?
That’s great you two are getting into the hobby.. it’s a good time and your always learn something new. The dig bag is something I have been working on for years getting perfected. Eventually I will make these in “runs” of probably 10. They take 8 hours to make and are labor intensive. I need to make changes to the hand digging tool sheath to strengthen and then test it for a bit before releasing. I use an industrial sewing machine and a saddle stitcher to make these... fairly robust.
Nice vid! I'm finding out the same thing with my hunting with my nox 800. I have been finding alot of wheats old nickles and Indians but no silver vat all. I think you are right about people are cherry picking and move on.
It’s been like that with my hunts for the past... guessing... 10 years for my hunts. I just don’t find silver like I used to.... even on my very old farm field sites I don’t find much silver. The only silver I found this winter was a silver trime... very happy with it but would like to hit some others too. Honestly not complaining and I never expect to find silver so when I actually do... it’s aleays exciting.
I always try my best to hit silver but it’s ok if I don’t... I really enjoy just finding stuff which isn’t always coins. I might be selling the V3i so this most likely will be the last one. I’ll be doing som Sport comparisons eventually.
Thank you. 🙂 I wasn’t sure in the field about the railroad name but I believe you are spot on with the ID. Tats great you were pointed my way from her... I wear her channels decal on all the machines I run to help support. I try to join in on Thursdays when I can or for an occasional coin roll hunt when I’m at work... just don’t tell anyone. Lol.
Enjoying your channel. The first find is definitely a girl scout pin. I used to have one. I like the ground cloth. Is it just a thick towel or is that a real thing?
Thank you. 🙂. Can’t beat a first hand report on an ID... thank you for commenting on it. The ground cloth is left over material from a dig bag I made for the guy who inspired me to make detecting videos... one reason is because it’s cut from the same cloth and two... it’s 1000 Cordura and stands up to anything. Just a big heavy cloth mainly.
There will probably be some disagreement, but in my opinion, coins don't really "sink" in soil. They get covered up with years of decomposing organic matter such as mowed grass.
@@MrMcGoo-rm3yu Do you have any old curb strips in your town? We have some old granite strips and you can tell they haven't been disturbed because the soil level is 3 or 4 inches higher than the strip/sidewalk. They weren't like that when new. That's many years of organic buildup.
I see that scenario on my wooded hunts where the decaying leaf layer is super thick and then the ultra organic layer is the same. Once you get into the topsoil layer that looks like regular topsoil your already 8” deep. Clay layer so well behind that. I’m not sure about the organic breakdown of soil layers and the addition of new soil due to sedimentation. Just historically over the years I have experienced that the heavier coins drop to the clay layer and lighter stuff can be anywhere above that. It’s just my observation And my soil types. Yours could be very different where you are, especially if you have a lot of sand in your soil.
I always try my best to hit silver but it’s ok if I don’t... I really enjoy just finding stuff which isn’t always coins. Maybe in one of the yards this summer I can grab some silver. Thank you for checking out the video.
Hey man another great video and nice hunt with cool finds! Although I'm pretty sure that's a civil war navy button since the eagle's head is turned to the left!(viewer's right) After the war the navy decided all eagle buttons should have the eagle's head facing right (viewer's left) because facing left is considered dishonorable. Congratulations great civil war find! HH
After further research now I'm not sure, it might be early 1900s... I know they used iron backs on some buttons during the civil war, I have a definite Confederate naval civil war button I found with the same iron back as urs
I was confused on it so I took a wild guess on WWII... my blue buck of military buttons didn’t cover off on this one very well. Someone else stated it might be a civilian button that was a known look a like.
I watched the ending again to see what I labeled them.. I must have been mistaken if I said 43 in the video. Sometimes hard to see and tell what the date is. I wish it was a 43 though. :) I'd go get a CTX3030 with it. LOL. Thanks for checking the video out.
You settings are exactly where I would think they should be except for I would have tried FE-1 but I don’t have as much experience as you do but now I know you have it right. I’m thinking you might find an Indian today.
Yep we will never know but it sure looked cherry picked too me. Another well produced video. Thanks for sharing and showing the comparison to the White.
I always try my best to hit silver but it’s ok if I don’t... I really enjoy just finding stuff which isn’t always coins. Maybe in one of the yards this summer I can grab some silver.
Ha! In the US they punched holes in coins and strung them on string because they never had pockets before the 1860’s. A 1956 Canadian One Cent with a hole and a string??? 🤔...No pockets??? Great video!
The design of US Navy Officer’s buttons prior to WWII, in use from 1852 until 1941, was an eagle facing left standing on a horizontal anchor. On May 14, 1941 the Navy ordered that the head of the eagle face its right side. “The shift of the eagle's aspect to right-facing from left-facing is logical from the perspective of heraldic tradition, since the right side (dexter) is the honor side of the shield and the left side (sinester) indicates dishonor or illegitimacy.” www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/173001-us-military-uniform-buttons-interesting-facts/
I wouldn't cherry pick at a site that is yielding mostly wheats. You'd have a better chance at digging up a 1909 s VDB wheat cent a 1943 copper wheat cent or any variety key date coin left behind. Then you can thank those cherry pickers on the way to the bank. That's the way I always think about that. Positive thoughts can lead to positive results, just need a little patience and have fun doing it. By the way, you will find silver when you least expect it. Nice little hunt and comparison video Kenny. H.H. _/
Excellent vid as usual!
The eagle pin is a 1929-1934 Girlscout Pin. I just found 5 of them at an old GS house. Count the arrows, if it’s 7 arrows it’s probably a type 3B GS pin
As always great video. Just wanted to say I appreciate your decision to post advertising free videos. A real pleasure to watch.
Thank you. I don’t do sponsors and I don’t monetize. The music I use I don’t have a full license for so they have the right to add a small advertisement during the beginning. I’m cool with that since the license is 50.00 per video beyond what I have.
I don't know if you have ever considered it, but you have the aptitude as well as a natural ability to be an educator. Very well done.
Thanks. I do instruction for land surveying both on social media as well as on a university level part time.
Great hunt. I liked the Girl Scout pin.
Thank you very much for the clay lesson very nice to see it. I love that little train so I say dig it all not just those great high tone silvers
thanks for the great vid. I wish more would use the ground cloth.going over where I have been' with the nox and doing great. just wish I did't have to dig so deep.
Your welcome and glad you enjoyed it. Lol... it’s a good thing you are digging deeper... but I too have noticed I am digging a lot more as well as deeper which adds to fatigue. I’m ok with it though. 🙂 good luck on and upcoming hunts. 👍🏻
Digging in NYC I have learned (the hard way) about target masking. Removing the low tones can sometimes get you to the high tones. Same rule applies with bottle caps and pull tabs!
I try to dig about anything that responds well and is in the artifact later that’s producing older finds (depth). I most folks on here believe I’m targeting coins but I’m actually not a coin collector... I just like finding interesting items. Thanks for checking the video out.
Love watching your hunts! Congratulations on the awesome finds!
Thank you. 🙂 i like seeing all the amazing stuff you have been pulling up lately.
Definately a girl scout pin/the younger girl scouts were called “brownies” and they have a similar but different pins
A good couple of day's the other blokes took what they wanted and left you what they didnt want but i think they lost because you got the history of the place thank you for having me along
1st thing I thought was a scouting pin .,after I saw the GS knew it was a Girl Scout pin
I didn’t know they existed. Thanks for the info.
I would be happy with what you found.
I believe your first Target is a Girl Scout pin. Great hunt overall!!!

Great ID. I didn’t know what it was when I found it but later discovered it was a Girl Scout pin. Thank you for commenting and checking out the video.
SUPER video and AWESOME finds! You're always informative and interesting. Looking forward to the next video!

Thank you for showing the set up on the Equinox. I'm having fun learning this thing.

Thank Jammy.. super surprised with all the coins in this yard. 🙂
I enjoy watching videos that actually focus on the finds thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it. I try my best to portray the hobby for what it actually is,, with trash and treasure as well as not running around in circles embellishing my excitement to gain attention... hopefully that makes sense. 🙂 keeping it real I guess.

Yes.. try to dig xome of the 15-17 tones. It's the "Grab Bag" tone area.. could truly be anything where sometimes the targets are very interesting.
@4:15: girl scouts pin. Nice find!
Great video!!! The GS pin is a Girl Scout pin ! Thanks for the ground balance demo. .......... if Whites would use a much faster processor that wouldn’t let the audio become choppy and clipped when recovery was sped up....... it could be a great detector....... but then again you would have to contend with the weight.

You definitely got a lot of cool stuff from that yard, like I said before there’s gotta be silver hiding somewhere with all those wheaties. You should run that 6” coil there when you get it, you are gonna love that coil. Awesome video!
Thanks for showing another comparison between the two machines. I’m like you I think it’s time to retire the v3i and go full time with the equinox .
This is the last appearance of the V on here. I’m doing CraigsList by this Wednesday with mine.
At 13:17 NYCRR is from the New York Central Rail Road based in NYCity!
Very nice and thanks for the ID. Wonder how that little toy made it here... it’s really cool and went in my collection. For some reason I like personal finds like that better than coins although finding coins is still a great time.
I have also found the nox800 so easy to take to.. from the first hunt to the last I have had, theres almost always been silver coins or deep relics..
That’s great your having success with the machine. I really enjoy that it’s light as a feather... really helps with the fatigue. Thanks for checking out the video.

Thank you for subscribing. 🙂 I’m glad to hear that your enjoying what I’m doing on here. I’ll have another video up in about 4 hours from now.
Great hunt. I really need to just jump out and fire up my 800. Guess I'll never learn if I don't.
Yes... just get out and swing it. The machine brings a lot of enjoyment to the hunt.
Nice Video.. I hope to have a V3i with 6x4 shooter coil and a Equinox 800 with 6 inch coil video out soon..
Good hunt. Wish I had a permission like that.
Just started watching your videos, i really appreciate that you show and explain your settings , you set a good example with your clean plugs , nice .
Another great video. And some cool finds. Did you hunt the curb strips? Those looked very promising at the beginning of the video.
Thank you.. I do hunt the curb strips and hunted it in this video as well as the previous one at this site. Sometimes they can produce great finds but they sure are loaded with modern trash as well. Thanks for checking out the video.

Great hunt
Cool finds 🐿️! 😃👍
Thank you :) Tried my best to hit some silver coins. Hope all is well up there and you get to detect sometime soon. :)
Fun video. I'm surprised you didn't find at least one silver mixed in with all those old wheaties
Good stuff man. Born and raised in N.E. Ohio then moved to Western Maine
where I'm surrounded by tons of stone walls and farm sites. Havin' a blast!

Great hunt man. You be tearin up those wheats. Nice WWII button and girl scout pin as well. Keep it up man
Great Hunt Kenny 👍

I've been doing experiments covering the same area with 1 and 2.
I have noticed targets appear in areas that I just covered by switching programs... I believe it’s a must if time allows.
Definitely Girl Scouts. Informative video. Thanks!
Yes... I for some reason defaulted to general service.. :) Thanks for the ID and for checking the video out.
Amazing hunt.
Another great video, watching and learning. 😎
Thank you. I try my best to add all I can for folks of all skill sets... glad to see it’s helping out. Thanks for watching.
The V3i is such a pain in the ass. But everytime ive thought about selling it, it always finds me something in the middle of trash. So i keep it.
Seriously made me laugh. All I can say is you really have to want to use a V3i... otherwise you sell it 2 months after you get it. Mines now 9 years old.

Nothing wrong with Wheat cents ☺️ cool holed Canadian. Congrats on all the finds !

That’s great you two are getting into the hobby.. it’s a good time and your always learn something new. The dig bag is something I have been working on for years getting perfected. Eventually I will make these in “runs” of probably 10. They take 8 hours to make and are labor intensive. I need to make changes to the hand digging tool sheath to strengthen and then test it for a bit before releasing. I use an industrial sewing machine and a saddle stitcher to make these... fairly robust.
Thank you for tuning into my channel. 🙂
@@squarenailsquirrel9638 wow! That's so cool! Definitely let us know when you're ready to release some!
Nice vid! I'm finding out the same thing with my hunting with my nox 800. I have been finding alot of wheats old nickles and Indians but no silver vat all. I think you are right about people are cherry picking and move on.
It’s been like that with my hunts for the past... guessing... 10 years for my hunts. I just don’t find silver like I used to.... even on my very old farm field sites I don’t find much silver. The only silver I found this winter was a silver trime... very happy with it but would like to hit some others too. Honestly not complaining and I never expect to find silver so when I actually do... it’s aleays exciting.
Great vid!!
Thank you. Glad you tuned in to check it out.
I WOULD ALSO SAY THE YARD WAS CHERRY PICKED, ENJOYED YOUR COMPARING SIGNALS ALSO.
I always try my best to hit silver but it’s ok if I don’t... I really enjoy just finding stuff which isn’t always coins. I might be selling the V3i so this most likely will be the last one. I’ll be doing som Sport comparisons eventually.
Nice camera work! Think the railroad is called New York Central on that one find. Heard about you via Liz at Digging Canuck. 👍😎🦈🦈
Thank you. 🙂 I wasn’t sure in the field about the railroad name but I believe you are spot on with the ID. Tats great you were pointed my way from her... I wear her channels decal on all the machines I run to help support. I try to join in on Thursdays when I can or for an occasional coin roll hunt when I’m at work... just don’t tell anyone. Lol.
Girl scout pin. Found a similar one a few months back
nice finds
Thank you Brenda... did my best on this site. Really surprised me with some cool stuff. Thank you for tuning in. 🙂
Your first find I believe is something from Girl Scouts. Cool finds!
Yes. I wasn’t sure what it was. I’m so used to general service with civil war buttons... lol. Forgot about Girl Scouts. Thanks for commenting.
Enjoying your channel. The first find is definitely a girl scout pin. I used to have one.
I like the ground cloth. Is it just a thick towel or is that a real thing?
Thank you. 🙂. Can’t beat a first hand report on an ID... thank you for commenting on it. The ground cloth is left over material from a dig bag I made for the guy who inspired me to make detecting videos... one reason is because it’s cut from the same cloth and two... it’s 1000 Cordura and stands up to anything. Just a big heavy cloth mainly.
Where have square nail squirrel 🐿 gone 🤷🏽♂️??
I'm surprised how well the Equinox is doing compared to the V3i. Wonder if that's cause of some settings differences.
NICE - All in a GREAT DAY
GS, is Girl scout
There will probably be some disagreement, but in my opinion, coins don't really "sink" in soil. They get covered up with years of decomposing organic matter such as mowed grass.
I've heard that it takes 500 -1000 years to form 1" of soil in a forest. I believe the objects sink.
@@MrMcGoo-rm3yu Do you have any old curb strips in your town? We have some old granite strips and you can tell they haven't been disturbed because the soil level is 3 or 4 inches higher than the strip/sidewalk. They weren't like that when new. That's many years of organic buildup.
Depends on the type of ground
I see that scenario on my wooded hunts where the decaying leaf layer is super thick and then the ultra organic layer is the same. Once you get into the topsoil layer that looks like regular topsoil your already 8” deep. Clay layer so well behind that. I’m not sure about the organic breakdown of soil layers and the addition of new soil due to sedimentation. Just historically over the years I have experienced that the heavier coins drop to the clay layer and lighter stuff can be anywhere above that. It’s just my observation And my soil types. Yours could be very different where you are, especially if you have a lot of sand in your soil.
Even though no silver, it was still a good hunt.
I always try my best to hit silver but it’s ok if I don’t... I really enjoy just finding stuff which isn’t always coins. Maybe in one of the yards this summer I can grab some silver. Thank you for checking out the video.
Hey man another great video and nice hunt with cool finds! Although I'm pretty sure that's a civil war navy button since the eagle's head is turned to the left!(viewer's right) After the war the navy decided all eagle buttons should have the eagle's head facing right (viewer's left) because facing left is considered dishonorable. Congratulations great civil war find! HH
After further research now I'm not sure, it might be early 1900s... I know they used iron backs on some buttons during the civil war, I have a definite Confederate naval civil war button I found with the same iron back as urs
I was confused on it so I took a wild guess on WWII... my blue buck of military buttons didn’t cover off on this one very well. Someone else stated it might be a civilian button that was a known look a like.
If that wheatie was a 1943, you’re sitting on a very nice paycheck sir
I watched the ending again to see what I labeled them.. I must have been mistaken if I said 43 in the video. Sometimes hard to see and tell what the date is. I wish it was a 43 though. :) I'd go get a CTX3030 with it. LOL. Thanks for checking the video out.
G S. Girl Scouts
Thank you. I wasn’t sure when I dug it up. Just seemed military to me.
You settings are exactly where I would think they should be except for I would have tried FE-1 but I don’t have as much experience as you do but now I know you have it right. I’m thinking you might find an Indian today.
what camera are you using its so sharp
iPhone XR... trick is... no digital stabilizer.
Those tricky pull tabs ;)
Yep we will never know but it sure looked cherry picked too me. Another well produced video. Thanks for sharing and showing the comparison to the White.
I always try my best to hit silver but it’s ok if I don’t... I really enjoy just finding stuff which isn’t always coins. Maybe in one of the yards this summer I can grab some silver.
Ha! In the US they punched holes in coins and strung them on string because they never had pockets before the 1860’s.
A 1956 Canadian One Cent with a hole and a string??? 🤔...No pockets???
Great video!
S A thoughts we learn something new every day. Aristocracy did have a crude pocket that lined clothing.
Brad has even a harder time but he usually will reply within a day or two you can do it 👍🏻good hunt buddy
Doing my best... this TH-cam venture takes up a lot of time. Thanks for watching.
The design of US Navy Officer’s buttons prior to WWII, in use from 1852 until 1941, was an eagle facing left standing on a horizontal anchor. On May 14, 1941 the Navy ordered that the head of the eagle face its right side. “The shift of the eagle's aspect to right-facing from left-facing is logical from the perspective of heraldic tradition, since the right side (dexter) is the honor side of the shield and the left side (sinester) indicates dishonor or illegitimacy.” www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/173001-us-military-uniform-buttons-interesting-facts/
Thanks for the info. I still haven’t positively ID’d that button... if feels and has the patina of my American civil war and my better 1812 buttons.
Good luck.
Thank you. 🙂 i’ll Be back out this weekend and i’ll use your good luck wishes on that site. Thanks for watching.
Nice, I know it takes a lot of effort to make nice vids like this, I enjoyed...also in Ohio.
that 1943 penny should be steel, looked copped.
Your first wheat cent you mentioned it might be a 1943. If it was you’d be sitting on a pile of ca$h with a copper ‘43!
I wouldn't cherry pick at a site that is yielding mostly wheats. You'd have a better chance at digging up a 1909 s VDB wheat cent a 1943 copper wheat cent or any variety key date coin left behind. Then you can thank those cherry pickers on the way to the bank. That's the way I always think about that. Positive thoughts can lead to positive results, just need a little patience and have fun doing it. By the way, you will find silver when you least expect it. Nice little hunt and comparison video Kenny. H.H. _/
It's a girl scout pin.
Did you find a 43 copper?!?!
Suscripto amigo 👍🍀. Exelente video . Super like 👍. Abrazo grande desde Rosario santa fe Argentina 🤜🤛🍀
Thank you. 👍🏻 Glad you joined on the channel.
The first thing you found was a girl scout pin
Did you upgrade the poles on your Nox to Carbon Fibre or buy it like that?
