I love them fairgrounds, the lead strips are tire weights. Awesome finds. Thanks for sharing.
This was my first go at them - I didn’t realize it would be so much fun! I’m going to be on the hunt for more of them now.🙂 Nice to see you tonight my friend.🍀
@@LuckyGin I HAVE A TREASURE YOU CAN DIG UP , IT'S MY HEART FOR YOU
Wheel weights, you can't balance just a tire!
the strange one is lead wieghts for tire balancing ;)
inner rim at that
That guy who lost that needs a wheel balancing.
You BEAT ME TO IT!! ✌🏼😜
They fall off lots
Girls look best in blue jeans just saying.. 🇨🇦
I’ve just started getting into metal detector videos. You are by far the easiest on the eyes! 🤩
you betcha bubba,she is
Indeed she is!!
@@RichardCockerill must be the camera man :)
Those are wheel weights that are used on Mag wheels , they stick on as you see they also fall off . In the 1970's we started to put 200 m.p.h. tape over them to slow this from happening. LOVE your smile !!
I love hunting old fair grounds. So many different relics and coins. Great job! Blessings!
This was my first try at one and it really was a lot of fun. 🙂🍀
I love your wrap up at the end how the coins are laid out with dates written out, keep going strong!
Thank you - I appreciate that.🙂🍀
Fairgrounds are awesome because they have seen so much traffic over the years! Thanks for sharing!
Yes! I had no idea until I gave this one a go. Lots of fun! Thanks for stopping by.🙂🍀
Great fines!! Tks for taking us along!!!
Thank you - I was excited to share the cool key escutcheon. 🙂🍀
I just love watching your shows,Thank you
Thanks so much Terry. I’m really glad you join me. 🙌🙂🍀
Great hunt for sure! cool. It always pleases me to see a metal detectorist back-fill and properly re-instate a dug hole. It's one of the things that sets a true hunter apart from the 'also rans'. Anti-tracking is an art in itself. Sloppiness is an affliction..You set some great examples for others in our hobby. Credit where credit is due. 75's are excellent machines, always wiil be! Class is ageless!
Thank you Tim. I always do my best to put things back in as pristine a condition as possible. I really appreciate that you noticed.🙂🍀
Thanks for sharing and have a safe trip.
Thank you, Bernie. Hopefully I’ll have some great new adventures to share from this trip. 🙂🍀
Love these country digs nice variety!
Awesome - I try to get some rural Tennessee hunts in when the weather cooperates and I’m able to find a spot. 🙂🍀
Som good finds, very nice job getting the key hole! Great hunt! Thanks, Clinton
Thank you Clinton - I was really excited about finding that. My first one! 🙂🍀
It is always fun joining you when you bring us along on your adventures. Judging from your finds, that place has not been detected very much, if at all. You have a very high chance of finding some old silver coins there. That lock plate is a very nice find!
Thank you, and thanks for stopping by to join me on this. Will I see you next week at mini-Digstock?
@@LuckyGin I will really try to get the time off work to be there.
Great to see you out Gin. Looks like you had a good day 😀
Thanks Tony. It was nice to be able to get out and not be freezing for a change! 🍀
Thanks, Lucky Gin For another excellent video. It always makes my day to watch your videos.
I’m so glad. 💖. It always makes me smile to see you stop by for a visit. 🙂
I have never in my whole life ever cine fairgrounds hat is the prettiest fairground I've ever seen in my life
I started watching metal detecting like this a few years ago and thought it would be fun. Now you are getting me fired up…about metal detecting too 😁, I may need to start shopping for a detector and the parts to get going! Great video.
Awww, I love hearing that. It’s such a fun hobby and gets you out into nature.🙂💖🍀
Old fairgrounds and gathering parks always produce great old finds Good luck 🍀
Finding the old key escutcheon gives me hope there could be other old items there too.🙂🍀
Great video LG, if no-one has posted yet, the mystery items have been produced by a holesaw drill bit. The centre hole is from a 3/8 or 1/2 inch pilot drill and the outer circle is from the holesaw. The jagged edges are where the holesaw rips through the final thickness of the aluminum plate. Love the finds. Lokking forward to some more of your videos. Cheers from Australia
Thanks so much for weighing in on that Grant. I appreciate you stopping by my channel.🙂🍀
I sub to two detecting channels only because of the styles, and areas these folks hunt. I just started to watch your videos and realized you also fit into my detecting criteria, which is pretty basic honestly. I'm from the west (Idaho) so hunting has been limited for now, but watching you has been relaxing in this crazy world. Thank you.
Hi Phil, I’m happy to hear you are enjoying the videos. I try to keep thing interesting and positive for my subscribers. Hope you get some warm weather and can get out and detect soon.🙂🍀
Loved the video, Gin!! Loved to see the mountains in the background as well!!👏👏 🥰👍👍 Enjoy your weekend!!😉👋
Thanks so much Patrick.🤗🤗🤗
Lots of fun, Gin. That looked like a great location. Happy hunting at Digstock! Make great finds!
Thank you Steve - I’m hoping for some bucket listers!🍀🍀🍀🍀
Nice little hunt Gin. Had to laugh when you pulled that big ole magnifier out hahaha if the sun went thru that it would be like a death ray haha. Weather looked great and a nice variety of finds. Thanks for taking us along. HH....Jon
😂😂😂 I’m channeling my inner Sherlock Holmes, don’t you know?!😂😂😂 Its sure to be THE metal detecting accessory of the season.😜. Thanks for stopping by to share the latest Jon.🍀
Hi Gin nice finds Tennessee looks a nice part of the US take care and have a good weekend 😁👍👍
It is lovely, especially when you can get to the most rural areas like this one. Beautiful scenery and not crowded. Thanks for stopping by, Keith.🙂🍀
Hi Gin, I was looking over at the picnic table while you were digging. I bet there's some nice things under or near it. People are always dropping things while sitting you know. Loved the video!!
What a fun hunt. Should be plenty more good targets laying around. The keyhole piece is interesting. Happy early St Paddy’s Day 🍀. Take care
The keyhole makes me optimistic that there could be other old things waiting to be found. 🙂 🍀 A very Happy St Patty’s day to you too!🍀
Great hunt Gin... I have the same finds bag I like it. Put safety pin in so it wouldn't slide around. Just started a new permission for a cpl hrs just to test. And found my first thimble. Look forward to next hunt. Be safe and dig on.🍀
Congrats on the first thimble Ronnie! 🙌. I haven’t found one of those yet - sounds like your new permission might be a good one! I’ve figured out that I can put the bag between my belt loop and the d-ring on my tactical belt and it keeps it in place. 🙂
Great hunt Gin! Hope you get to go back to the Fairgrounds soon. I had one of those finds bags, mine kept sliding around so I got a different one. Have a great weekend, God bless!
Thank you. I’ve figured out that I can put it on my tactical belt and through my belt loops, so that keeps it in place between the belt loops. 🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin hhmmm..maybe i should have bought a Tactical belt!
Gotta love those high traffic areas for finding that clad. Hope you hinted under those bleachers as well. Thanks for another great video.
The bleachers ended up being such a heartbreaker. It looked like they just sat on dirt, but once I got under there I realized there was concrete with rebar in it. 😭😭😭
I loved watching your videos while recovering from a pulled back muscle. Keep up the hard work and you’ll hit something good over time. Happy hunting😘
Thank you, Todd. I hope you get healed up soon. 🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin Thank you! Doing much better👍
Especially good round up! Looks like east Tennessee with the ridge in the background. Looking forward to seeing your next.
Thanks so much - this was a fun hunt, and the setting beautiful too. 🙂
@@ULM I think those are the hottest jeans I've ever seen! WOW!
Where did you go Schumacher?
It actually looked like Celina, TN to me.
Great day of detecting. Lots of coin signals is exciting even if there wasn't any old ones.
Definitely - makes the day so much more interesting when there’s lots of signals.🍀
Great hunt Gin. Congratulations on your finds. Thanks for sharing. 🤙🏼Chris 🤙🏼
Thanks so much, Chris. I appreciate you stopping by.🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin we Volunteers look out for each other. 👊🏻
Looks like fun!!
It definitely is.🙂🍀
I applaud your patience there. I can't see myself detecting for long at the fairgrounds near me. After about the 83rd pull tab and a few crumpled up Schlitz cans from the '70's, I'd call it a day.
I think it’s more dogged determination and stubbornness if I’m honest. 😂🍀
I'll go "detectin'" all day. Have places all ready mapped out in me head, haven't even gotten my metal detector yet!✌🏼😜
The lucky guy that lands you would feel fabulous! Wow, what a beauty. 😘
Awww, thank you.🥰
Love your videos, very relaxing and fun to view. Your dialogue is very pleasing. Keep that beautiful smile. Freckles are pretty!
I was gonna say the lead weights are probably used for tire balancing. Garages carry strips of them in their inventory. I have been detecting for 12 years and it's my fav hobby, actually started out with a Fisher F4...great detector. I like your channel because you show live digs and everyday finds, and you show real joy in doing so. Subscribed today too !
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to leave a nice comment.🙂 I’m glad to have you join me.
When you came across those beautiful eyes and that pretty smile you know you have found the most precious treasure Mike's metal detecting worthwhile have a blessed day this is Bobby
The fairgrounds looked like a nice place to do some swingin' The uncut tire weight things and the keyhole were rad finds! :)
Thank you Cory. I appreciate you stopping by to share the hunt.🙂🍀
She's using my favorite detector. I've found many old and new valuable things with it. Fisher F-75.
I am certainly loving using the F75.🙂🍀
Another good video, Gin! I’ve hunted fairgrounds before and you can find some interesting things. Take care!
This was my first time trying out the fairgrounds, and it was definitely fun. 🙂🍀
Looking forward to seeing more creative videos like this one too
Thanks so much Ken! I appreciate you visiting my channel.🙂🍀
Thanks Nice finds 👍 😊
Thanks Richard.🙂🙌🍀
Tire weights are so random at a fairground! Love the Key hole plate!!
I thought so too, but somebody pointed out they use them For soapbox derby cars. That makes sense. Very excited about the key escutcheon.🙂🍀
could be off of a demo derby car
Good videos Gin. You're a very pleasant and easy to watch lady. Thanks for the shares. I thought we were on our way and then last night 3 to 4 inches of snow and 17 degrees. Bummer. Ground froze up again. Oh well. Again "THANKS"
Well thank you, Denny. I’m afraid your snow is over here now putting the big freeze on my weekend fun too.🥶
@@LuckyGin it'll pass soon. Just that I work, so now I have to wait. 🙂
Wow, been metal detecting about 45 years and never saw such a beautiful treasure as u. Good hunting pretty angel!
Awww, what a lovely comment. Thank you!🥰
Your plugs are looking really clean and pinpointing is getting very accurate. Inspiring!
Thanks so much! I’ve got many blisters to show for my improvement with that Lesche. 😂
And the metal detecting is nice too.
Nice hunt Gin enjoyed the video looks like you really enjoyed yourself take care and be safe 👍 😀 😊 🙂
I sure did. Going through that last hunt with very few targets made me really appreciate a location with lots of the .🙂🍀
Great Video Gin! Best of Luck on your next metal detecting adventure!
Thanks Chris - next up is a week of hunting at Digstock and hopefully, some bucket listers!🍀🍀🍀
Looks like a fund day. So many different things to find at fairgrounds. The strips are wheel weights for a vehicle wheel to balance it.
Thanks for stopping by this evening Andy. 🙂 I really do love the hunts with lots of targets and variety, so the fairgrounds ended up being pretty cool.🍀
Weights are used to get jockeys weight up to where it supposed be
Looks like a fun hobby. Always wanted to give it a go. ☘️
It really is fun, Chuck. Once you give it a go, it’s hard to quit. 🙂🍀
I need to get a magnifying glass like that! Since you have one,now it’s cool!
I love that thing, and now have a finds bag that can accommodate it. 😃🍀
Balance weight strip. Got to love that Tennessee so easy to dig. Stay safe.
I wish it was as easy as the western states. Still, glad to be able to get out and have some fun between trips. 🙂
You enjoy the day and i enjoyed watching your findsx
Awesome Paul - thanks for stopping by to share the latest hunt. 🙂🍀
Cool vid Gin. I like how you date your coins. Makes the wrap-up much more exciting. Keep up the good work
Thanks so much Dave. It’s really cool to hear feedback about the coin dating in the wrap-up. I appreciate you!🙌🙂🍀
Looks like you found a good place to hunt, best of luck, Gin 👍😊
Yes indeed, I was really pleased with this spot. 🍀 Nice to see you stop by.🙂
Pull tabs! Thats all I ever find. My yard is loaded with em. I guess they did a lot of partying. That skeleton key hole is cool.
Ha - you bought the party house! Too bad they didn’t loose silver coins while drinking. 🍀
😂 they must have been drunk when they back filled the front and back yard. All kinds of sh!t.
nice digging good luck on your future detecting
What a beautiful soul!
Great hunt lucky 🍀
Thanks Gregory - I appreciate you dropping by to join me. 🙌🍀
It was a great hunt Gin i enjoy your videos and enjoy your weekend and good Luck.
I’m really glad, Jimmy. I sure appreciate you stopping by. 🙂🍀
I ordered a pouch just like that a couple weeks ago. Thanks for the video.
I’m really digging it. Works great with the tactical belt. Thanks for stopping by.🙂🍀
That key hole plate is awesome. Another wicked hunt Gin.
Thanks so much. It’s always so cool to get a first.🍀🙂
Nice hunt! I'll also be in NC next weekend (flying in from Seattle) so will say hi if I see you. I was at Digstock NY in Oct and was really happy to see so many female detectorists there!
Awesome Elisabeth - I shall look forward to meeting you! 🤗🍀
Some nice finds once again Gin. You seem to be doing very well with your new machine. If I were you, I’d definitely hit that tot lot I can see behind you over near that football field. Then hit under the bleachers where I’m sure people drop all kinds of things. Good luck next weekend in NC👍🍀
I’m afraid the tot lot was a bust, and the bleachers a heartbreaker. They had concrete with rebar under them. 😣😣😣. Thanks for the wishes for the trip - hoping to find some super cool stuff while I’m there.🍀🍀🍀
Beautiful Smile & a Beautiful Woman! I wish you the best of luck with your findings! ;)
Best wishes ☺️
Gary
The metal weight strip as you called it are lead stick-on wheel weights used to balance aluminum truck and car wheels from the inside of the back of the wheel. Regular lead wheel weights are held on by a metal clip that either won't work on those types of wheels or the customer doesn't want the weights showing on the outside of the wheel. I don't know if they still use them or not. We used them back in the late 70's and 80's when I was an auto mechanic.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing that info Marvin. I appreciate you.🙂🍀
Gotta say the best looking metal detector on CZcams for sure.
It's just a middle of the road machine, now the detectorist on the other hand!!
Well thank you.🥰🍀
Looks like nice weather 🤜💥🤛
It was great while it lasted - but alas, snowing here tonight. 😣
At the 4:06 mark what you have there are some balancing weights that go on wheels for vehicles. Thanks for your videos!
Thanks for visiting my channel.🙂🍀
Looks like a fun day
It was indeed - thanks for stopping by to share in the fun. 🙂🍀
Thanks for a great video
Thanks for stopping by to join me William. 🙂🍀
Interesting hunt thank you from Northern Cali.
Thanks Jan!🙌 I hope you are doing well.🍀
Hi Gin! I just fount your channel, I enjoy metal detecting as well, We have quite a few places up in KY. I love your enthusiasm. Please keep making your videos.
Thanks so much Russell. I really appreciate you dropping by my channel. Sounds like we are practically neighbors.🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin yes ma’am, we practically are. 😊
Great finds pleasure to watch
Thanks so much, and thanks for visiting my channel from so far away.🙂🍀
As I start watching the video I get this Hummmm moment. That sure looks familiar. I hunted there 11-28-2020. I hit the tot lot and ball fields and it has been well hunted in the past. I moved to the same area where you hunted with similar results and a lot of trash. Met a lady walking her dogs so I spent a lot of time just playing with the pups. All in all I had a fun hunt. I ended up moving and ended the days with over $25 in clad and little bling. Fun video, thanks for sharing...
Holy smokes - you got a lot of clad! I’ve never found that much in one day. Maybe you were there right after the fair had been in town? It’s a fun spot and seems to stay busy.
@@LuckyGin High School in that town. I noticed last night that I missed you on Relic Radio. I will be sure and listen to it in a few days.
i metal detected my local fairgrounds in western ky back in 2008/09 and found 29 silver dimes and 2 silver quarters. most of the finds were under the grandstands in the heavy trash where the ones before me refused to hunt. just using my mxt with my “hockey puck” coil. there’s still silver out there if you’re willing to hunt the trashy areas. have fun
I tried detecting under the bleachers in this video, but there was a ton of rebar. You have me wondering if my sniper could might be able to slip in there. 🙂🍀
Looks like you had fun out there.
Absolutely! Thanks for stopping by.🙂🍀
I had to comment because you got a follower just from your accent alone. Love it. I'm from Tennessee too and wish you well.
Thanks so much John.🙂 I appreciate you stopping by my channel - it’s always nice to hear from people here in my home state.🙌🍀
you find some really cool spots to hunt. I was guessing tire weights as well on those items you found. Good job!
Haha; sometimes it’s really a struggle to find places to go. Another reason I prefer being on the road. 🙂
Fairgrounds are great places to hunt. Nice finds.
This was my first time giving it a try and it really was a lot of fun. I love the hunts with lots of targets to keep busy. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!🍀
Cool hunts Gin congrats 👏
Thanks so much! 🙌🍀
Great video. Very nice finds.
Thanks so much. I really appreciate you stopping by my channel.🙂🍀
I found you Lucky Gin while channel surfing on Sat. 04/09/2022. I enjoyed your fairground treasure hunt. You have nice content and a clear crisp sounding voice. Thanks for sharing. From Tampa Bay Florida, USA.
I’m sure glad to have you join me William.🙌🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin P.S. if you come to the west coast of Florida? There are many state parks and beaches to hunt on...Clearwater ,St.Pete beach, Treasure island , and Fort Desoto Beach and Camp ground. in the Tampa Bay Florida region and alittle farther south is Sarasota, Venice, and on down to Fort Myers and Sanibel island light houe beaches. Many are full of people year round. Sure would love to hunt with you hint hint if you come to Tampa Bay Florida.
Looks like the strips of lead weights are the kind used for balancing tires (wheels) on cars. They stick on to the inside of custom rims.
Thanks Wes. I appreciate you stopping by my channel.
That was a good days worth of finds. For every coin I found I probably dug up 20 pull tabs. But I still had a good time.
Some hunts are like that for sure.🙂 Thanks for stopping by my channel Jim.🍀
I know a few have mentioned this but for those of us just starting in the detecting field, I will mention it again. If you could add the audio of your detector so we could hear the beeps and maybe even tell the signal number it would be great. I do realize there are times when best to use headphones for crowds etc but just comment. Love your videos, very informative.
Sure thing Jerry. I’ll try to remember to include that more.🙂🍀
Thanks, just getting back into the game. Had my first detector, a Whites in 1982. Then life (kids) slowed that down. Like to research and your channel has helped. One of the really most informative/fun ones out there.
Been hunting a fairground near me and it is loaded with a lot of interesting stuff…and some coinage, but no silver yet. Nice show and tell. 😎
Hope you have some luck and find some silver there. I can’t help but feel as large as fairgrounds are, surely there’s at least one silver hiding somewhere!🙂🍀
Hi gin, the algorithm brought me here.... I do some detecting with a £30 detector here in England.
I'm lucky being in an old garrison town / pow camp and find 160 year old shell casings and Victoria pennies regularly.
We find musket balls from the English civil (1640's) war nearby too !
Happy hunting 👋🏻
Sounds like you have a really great spot for hunting. 🙂🍀 Thqnks for visiting my channel - I’m glad the algorithm brought you by.🙌
You are correct. Tire balancing weights
I was going to say those strips are wheel weights but you beat me to it. I'm a detectorist in Tennessee.
Happy St Patty's Day Gin . Enjoy all your episodes...
Thank you Kevin!🙌 I do love St Patty’s day. 😍🍀
Great hunt Gin. Have a really great time at digstock. I'm confident you will kill it.
Thank you so much! I’m really looking forward to it and can’t wait to share some great videos.🙌🍀
Hey just found your channel and I am enjoying your adventures! I have a fairgrounds close to my home it’s been hit hard since the 1970’s the good stuff is harder to find! Keep on searching !!!!!
Thanks for popping by! I appreciate you!🙌🍀
You are sooo (cute) lucky!! I'm looking for a metal detector myself. Love ur videos! 💗 Have fun!👋🏻🤩
Awww, well thank you. It’s such a fun hobby - I hope you are able to get started soon.🙂🍀
Trop bien !!!!!
I hope there is a detecting in the rain upcoming video with that t-shirt! WoW
The key escutcheon was way cool!👍👍👍👍💖
Definitely my favorite. 🙂🍀
