One of the best spots I have found all year metal detecting in the woods. This cellar hole is from the 1700s and was the site of an early New Hampshire settler. Almost unable to see this old homesite buried way out in the woods all that remains where the house once stood is a hole in the ground. There is not even a rock lined foundation like most cellar holes. With my Fisher F19 metal detector once I turned it on I was easily finding and digging up relics from the colonial days. Old buttons, spoons, forks, buckles and more were all over the place. To say this site has never been metal detected before was quickly figured out. This is one of the best metal detecting sites I have found all year without a doubt and I was able to make several return trips. You just won't believe it.

    You know why I like your channels? It’s because y’all are legitimately happy when y’all find stuff. It doesn’t have to be gold or rings or coins. You are out to find history. Many channels I watch are all about the coins/gold. Keep on keeping on.
  • @Eddygov1105
    I am fascinated with the finds from the colonial times. I can just imagine the shoe buckle on a colonial man's shoe! I wanted to let you know that I like the quick and efficient way you present your finds. No useless stuff.
  • @leonosbo
    though I had some problem with sea water It also youtube.com/post/Ugkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrH… land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

    My 5th, 4th and 3rd great-grandfathers lived in Campton, NH. During the revolutionary war. Josiah and Chiliab Brainerd were born in Haddam, CT, moved to Campton. Both fought in the war. Enoch Brainerd was born 1786 in Campton.
  • I found the remains of an old log cabin in the Allegheny Mountains. Using my old Whites Coinmaster I found a broken pair of wire frame glasses, some lead musket balls, a rusted skinning knife with the handle missing and several square head nails. Nearby was their trash dump with loads of broken bottles, but none of them were intact.

    That large Tomback button with the flower is gorgeous and it is in fantastic condition.
  • @BradGryphonn
    I like watching these sorts of videos. It gives me comfort knowing that the dumps we created outback on 'ranches' will one day be someone's treasure.

    💡I looked it up, so I thought I’d share.😊 Crotal bells are various types of small bells or rattles. They were produced in various Pre-Columbian cultures. In Europe they were made from probably before the early Middle Ages and though many founders cast bells of this type, the Robert Wells bell foundry of Aldbourne, Wiltshire produced the largest range. Crotal bells, also known as rumble bells, were used on horse-drawn vehicles before motorised vehicles were common. They were often made of bronze with a slot cut down the side. These bells were used to warn other horse-drawn vehicle users (mostly on country roads) that another vehicle was approaching.
  • This is so cool ,I love the buttons you found .I have my grandmother's button collection the oldest is a homemade civil war button.
  • Yes , you need a spot on the History channel . A pleasure watching you find old stuff, the camera work all of it. Woohoo!
  • "rocks that look like things" new beginners guide to metal detecting haha!
  • @m998hmmwv7
    Its a wonder they ever kept their clothes on with all those missing buttons and buckles lol
  • Makes you want to know the family who lived there and what their lives were like. Why they left, when, and where did they go?
  • @megb9700
    I grew up in the woods of NH and found sites like this with so many artifacts when a fire destroyed a family or some other disaster. Great finds! I’m curious about the historical side too.
  • @joyceclark8476
    Hi Charlie, untouched and loaded with relics, is always a great day in the neighborhood! ! Marvelous! ! Love the finds. Can’t wait for more. Joyce. ARROW *🎱. 🇺🇸. ❤️.
  • Wow! Awesome finds in such a small space! I love the buckles. To find so many whole buckles in itself is amazing! My first time watching “Not Thursday” and I’ll be back!
  • @billmoran3219
    Boy there sure was a lot of colonial walking around with no belts, buckles and buttons! Thank god for Velcro 😝
  • I grew up in southern NH and it's so fun seeing all the great treasures you uncover. :)
  • @leathernluv
    I like the flatware. Someone sustained their life with it at one time.
  • @kymesue9575
    I keep freaking out everytime you stab the shovel into the ground. Breaking stuff as you go. Fun finds for sure!
