Harvesting Silver Coins From The Crack

- Ever harvested coins, even silver coins, from a deep crack in solid granet all the while racing against time as the tide is coming in fast and furious??? Whelp... if not, here is you chance to see what it is like. Please join me, Billy and Thor as we go metal detecting and then discover a giant crack in the granite rock that once served as an accessway to the wild and rough tidal open ocean water and where apparently many things were lost or thrown away, including silver coins!
If you ever journey up to Down East Maine and get the chance, check out Billy and his Real Estate business. He can be found at www.BoldCoastPropertiesllc.com. He will hook you up too!

Those coins are probably the pocket change from the last guy that got stuck in that crevice.😊
😂😂😂
Gotta love dark comedy! 🤣
Didn't get out before the tide came in...
No coin is worth drowning for. 😁
Hahahahahaha
That place has more cracks than a plumbers convention!
Lol
🤣
😂
😅
Can’t WAIT until you go back there a Chigg! I’ll bet there’s soooo many artifacts and treasure wedged amongst all those cracks and crevasses.... Great video! Please do another?
There's a lot of crap in there too.
Could not agree more! You have to go back and bring a bucket, right tools, sifter and make it an hour+ video!!
Yes Chigg!!!!
Now I'm going to have nightmares about Chigg getting his
foot stuck and having to chop it off with a rusted file before
the tide comes in.
I hate it when that happens.
No doubt he would forget his rusty file in the chigmobile.
But when the next explorer found his bones and said "Are the hooooman???", they would be right and the planets will line up again. But not to worry, he know how to "hold his breath".
“127 seconds”
😃😄😅
So, I did some e-digging, and those grates and buttons are a type of battery plate. Here's a small list of what I've collected:
1. That plate design is called the "Manchester Positive". It is the positive electrode in this style of battery.
2. The grid is a lead antimony alloy, and the "buttons" are rolls of pure lead. The rolls form a build-up of lead-peroxide. The grate does not, because the antimony protects the it. This keeps the grate from deteriorating.
3. The positive and negative plates were separated with wood inserts. At one point, these battery cells were housed in open glass jars.
4. They were used for various things, including cars.
One source of several I found is a book from 1923, by Charles W. T. Stuart, called "Car Lighting by Electricity".
It's on Google Books for free if you want to look, and there are several other good reads on the topic as well.
Great research.. Thanks
Thanks, it seems they were used in Australian submarines back then.
Cool! 👍👍
3:22 engine crank shaft
3:54 3 large pipe fittings
4:06 winch parts?
4:11 buoy for crab pots
14:33 part of a door latch
17:15 some kind of crank shaft.
17:59 handle off metal bucket or tub
25:19 battery plate
Huh? Lol
@@williamvanderpol7193 how are you confused?!
You were making me wicked nervous, I was really enjoying knowing how fast the tide comes in Down East.... I can honestly say that metal detecting videos have never made my heart race... Until now. Great job Chigg
Thank you for taking us on your adventures with you Beau! My jealously level is 100%
8:09 how to catch a chigg. round shiny objects jammed in a crack
Chiggers are a thing but this is hilarious.
I have lived in Maine my whole life and no way would I go down into that crack! Lol you are so brave. Gorgeous spot you were at!
I'm honestly a little mindblown that there's copper there. Just south og there-- mid-coast, the water totally eats copper. The 'coins' and spoon bits I've found were just like lace. Brass holds up better, it seems. Amazing treasure hunt!
The large plate at the end, is a backwash plate inside a kahooter valve found in turn of the century trawlers use in fish oil production. May all my future children be born naked if I'm wrong!
Hi from Greece.I love Metal Detecting.Thank You for your videos!
One thing I have learned over many years of watching you Chigg, is look where "nothing would be" And a lot of times it will be there. Thank you for so very much great info over the years!! I have found where you said.
I don't think chigg has EVER been prepared with the right equipment he needs when he goes on a dig. Ever.
One of the more intriguing (and unprepared) vids I've seen this week. That juxtaposition works, and is kinda refreshing.
I like how chigg gets laser- focused when he finds stuff
As a midwesterner, we have the most bland accents, or basically none. Northeastern accents are so awesome!
And see I've always imagined most folks from the Midwest sounding like Edie McClurg with that overly cheery, nothing phases them accent. Oh you betcha.
Please come back and get the coins
"A nutha booall"
The Triton balloon is my brothers who lives in Cutler Maine!!
been watching your stuff for a few months now. i live in the woods of Maine, i`ve been detecting some old cellar holes on routes that have been used for a couple hundred years. great fun and exercise, lol. good stuff, Chigg, thanks for the fun, ive learned a lot watching you
Now if I weren't frightened of getting caught in there and not noticing the tide coming in; I'd be all about checking that area 😃
First time here, just saw your 3rd AD Patch! Echo/HHC Company, 4-18 INF, 2nd Brigade, 3AD. 1989 to 1991. Thanks for your service!
The lead lump looks like a zinc annode off a boat sounded to tinny to be lead.
Yeah as soon as he dropped it it didn't sound like lead, zinc is more likely
That was unbelievable. Thank you for letting us go along.
Looking forward to seeing you go back in the crack to get those coins!
One of your better episodes, very entertaining.
Love watching Captain Billy !
Tides are dangerous to take for granted. You would have seen that while staying in the cottage . Stay safe! Be aware! Nice explore
Awesome video Chigg. Just came in from a L O N G rough day and this is just what I needed. Well, and those 2 cold beers too!!
14:30 - on the bottom of the screen, just right of center is a coin. I would love to explore that island. Thanks for taking us along.
It looks more like a brass door lock key. Also he immediately picked up a piece of door hardware.
That was awesome... you have got to go back there armed with a railroad bar, pliers and dynamite if need be :P
😂😂😂 @ dynamite 😂😂😂
Hellloooo when you dropped that big piece of melted lead it rang like silver take that to be checked 👍👍👍👍👍👍
KINN, That would be a really sneaky way to hide a hunk of silver, eh?
Cant remember led ringing like that... Ummm could be tin but yes not led i would say. Also the color looks much like stained silver.
zinc....see it every day all day.
Engine flywheels , startermotor and crankshaft , How strange. cheers great clip.
Yes go back Chigg be safe out there and GOD BLESS you and your family buddy Amen 🙏
✊️✊️ Another awesome episode ✊️✊️ Thank you for sharing with us. Happy Hunting Everyone 🤗
Oh man what an amazing video
This might be one of my favourites so far
Thanks for the great time chigg
chiggs in a candy store down there in that crack! Can't wait to see you come back!
Stuck between a rock and a hard place for sure. That trip wore me out. When you were squeezing through the cracks and crevices, I was all tense and even holding my breath.
Wow Beau that was one exciting adventure. You definitely need to go back there and get those coins and whatever else is down there.Thanks for taking us along with you. I really enjoyed watching. Be safe😁
This video caused a dream after watching it of scratching around and uncovering a piece of flat sea shell that was black on one side. On that side was a detailed etching of a pastoral scene of people sitting on a rock in ancient robes. It could only be seen by turning it at certain angle like a hologram on paper currency!
I can't wait to see what you fund!! Even the old nails are cool. I can't wait for you to go back!
Nice chigg, keep smiling dude.
Cheers.
" Is that a bomb ?! " " Grabs it "
Chig I would be happy to see you go back there and I would love to see what you dig out. There’s no telling what might come out of there
I love the story associated with that coin. Adds so much more value than the true worth of the coin.
Love your excitement.
My grandparents lived on a beach in maine when I was younger. I spent every summer out in those rocks and never found a coin but found many other things. You are very lucky
Go back go back go back go back go back go back go back go back hey chigg go back please mate
Love this sort of treasure hunt
I enjoy your enthusiasm Agua.
Chigg definitely go back. That place is so cool.
Pretty Awesome! I hope you go back and get those coins!! I'd love to see that.
You do some cool stuff..I love watching your videos ❤️ thanks!!
Yes Chigg please go back. Great adventure.
Nice video Chigg. VERY interesting location for sure! Stay safe. GL&HH!
Well u go back with right tools. I found u made it an interesting little adventure. Don't be alone, stay safe. Good luck.
Great adventure again Mr chiggs and go back n get all the treasure 😜👍
This was awesome!!!!!!!
Congrats on 1 mil
Hey man thank you for the video I enjoyed it and you're sure do find a lot of stuff out there
Awesome bud, look forward to the next 👍
haahahah thats a crab comb. a comb fer crabs ?lmao classic. loved it man. nice silver
I loved metal detecting in maine when I went there on vacation, The ocean water and rocks wernt too nice to the coins, but there is plenty of old history to be found there!
In the last crevis when you found the coin the brass bullet shaped things are oxy acetylene cutting nozzles
That caving experience came in handy in that crevice!! Thanks for the adventure!!
Great Video, glad you got that Merc out. Looking forward to the next video with the rest of the Coins.
man - that looks dangerous going down that crack...i would have never gone down there
My Mom use to work for Best Lock cool. Thanks for sharing continue to see what's in the rocks.
Awesome metal wachamacallit beach treasures! Looking forward to tomorrow's trip back there.
Glad to see you having a great time getting stuck in a gut in the great state of Maine!
Amazing Chigg !!
All sorts of whatchamacallits and doodads and thingymabobs to keep the Chigg fascinated for hours! Awesome!!! Mike in sunny Florida
You are so cute when you are excited Chigg xx
Interesting video. I have many cousins living in Maine that are lobster fishermen so any videos from there is very interesting to me. Enjoyed watching.
That Was Thrilling!
Needed a set of mechanics hemostats for that job.
This was a fun video!
I'm from Maine!! I love watching your videos. I love treasure hunting too. Im so happy to see you up here in Maine. Funny I new it was Maine before even reading to see if it was. We have unmistakable land scape up here.
Lots of cool stuff in that crevice!
This begs the question. Is there treasure everywhere Beau goes, or does Beau only go where there's treasure? 🤔
Omg i held my breath with you climbing in that crack
Awesome video !!!
There are a ton of large engine parts in there, which is weird... right? Flywheels(when you said "big gear!"), crankshafts, etc.
Your song is so great!
Love it.
Enjoyed it much
Chigg! please go back to this place again! it is such a cool place, with coins!
17:23 steam engine crank shaft.
I thought it mightve been part of an internal combustion engine definitely a crankshaft tjough
Great video!
The bittersweet...the Chigg finally found his gold coins...got his foot stuck in the rocks...the tide came in...and he drown-ded. RIP Chigg.
OH !!!!
He dieded
And his last words were "Hold your breath! "
@@marymisdom3955 😁
That isn't nice to say
Your a true thrill seeker..
I was worried the water was coming up and sweeping you away...🤔😱😉🥰
One my favorites so far. I thought you were going to wait to long for the tide to come in.
The guy is defiantly not afraid of getting dirty.
Extreme crevicing. Nice interesting finds and can't wait to see the followup.👍😉💛
There's nothing better than firckling amongst rock pools 😍😍😍
Need tweezers that have rubber insert or lined that could grip those coins
Awesome video! Never know what you’ll find!
Hey Chigg! I absolutely love this video as it reminds me of my childhood, when I was doing this exact same relic hunting on the cliffs in Sweden :) I have a question for you: *Could you please make a video about all the coins that you have found through the years?* :)
Looks like a pretty cool spot down there in the crack keep up the good work man. Also I can't wait for your next caving video I have found a few caves in my area one is pretty cool pretty similar to your bear cave Anyhow can't wait for the. next caving video
Amazing how much stuff one can find in their crack! You should always keep your crack clean! Cool finds!
Awesome!
I could do it all day to lol. I just got my 1st detector yest and I can't get enough of it! It's gonna take a while to get good at it but man it's so friken fun!!!!
