    I'm recently retired and just getting into metal detecting. I've been binge watching your videos and I hope they don't run out! I love how much fun you guys have on your outings and how supportive you are of each other.
    This may not be an original thought, but I think your gang and the detecting adventures you go on are ready made for a series on the History Channel or Netflix! American Pickers and Pawn Stars have nothing on you all!

    I know that it won’t mean much to anyone else but Doug is a spitting image of my grandpa that we lost 3 years ago to Parkinson’s disease(agent orange from his service in the navy). I watch this and am in awe of how much they look alike. Not only that but my grandpa was a huge civil war history buff. He would have got a kick out of these videos. Thank you Doug for looking the way you do! Lol you bring me a little bit of peace.

    If the museum accepts your lock you should put a QR code alongside it linking to this video. Patrons might enjoy seeing what it looked like when it was first found.

      Jason....I love what you and your friends do! I have secretly wanted a metal detector and tools my whole life....and that's been a long time. I research anything historical, along with researching people through genealogy. They all go hand in hand to see a bigger picture of the past.
      I think my favorite find is the triangle lock. It is by far one of the rarest things I've ever seen in a dig. That banana paid off! haha!
      My understanding of that piece is that it would have been a lock for a personal trunk. You are probably right that the key may have broken off. There may have been a sliding plate to cover the keyhole. I would have been silly giddy to find it and want to dig a hole to China to see if there was anything that it had been attached to. However, it was obvious that you were respecting the owner's property and replacing your divots!
      Do you ever get to Alabama? I have lifelong family friends that live toward the North and they lived in a house that was built around 1820. We stayed there often on trips to visit. There is a great deal of history there. They had very good relations with the Cherokee Indians, including Andrew Jackson. They assisted Jackson in the civil war and Jackson relied on them heavily for trade, as well as allies during the war of the states. I'm sure that house is a haven for detectorists.
      Take care and thank you for a great video. I'm a new subscriber after today!

    • @deeremeyer1749
      @deeremeyer1749 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hard to part with because nothing mechanical is more worthless to "collectors" than padlocks without keys. Besides maybe rusted padlocks that wouldn't work if they did have a key and it's "value" is nothing so unless you give it away and even that's hard to do with true non-working scrap metal junk, it's going to be hard NOT to "part with".
      And all those "finds"? Are all "junk" as far as "collector value" and somebody "back in the day" OBVIOUSLY "salted" that "colonial" yard with junk "antiques" with zero "monetary value" for a "treasure hunt" at some point. Probably "back in the day" when metal detecting was "hot" and the local detector "dealer" was looking to move product with customer "demos", a local club was trying to recruit new members, a Boy Scout troop was "treasure hunting" or some similar total "set up" with exactly zero "monetary loss" if/when some or all of the "treasures" were never found. Which is the case when you expect the machine to "do the work" for you.

      @@deeremeyer1749 So, do you throw away everything you find unless it has monetary value to a collector? Does holding items in your hand from colonial times not do anything for you? I don’t get it. I wouldn’t give the old lock away. It’s a relic with historic value. Maybe not monetary but the value is definitely there and I don’t detect for a living anyway.
