  • Totally floored. Mind blown. I still can’t believe we live dig one of the most rare & iconic coins in United States History. We metal detect a friends house that was built in 1851. His property wraps around an early grave yard. The grave stones are all much older then his house. You never know what and where you will find something that will completely blow your mind. Treasure hunting at its best!

    I keep coming back to this video because that is such an amazing find. Kurt, you will probably be the only person to ever capture the digging of a chain cent on camera. Absolutely unreal find even 4 years later. Thank you for recording your adventures for us all to see! Any updates on this beautiful coin since the video? Find any new info about it?

    I had a 14k javelina pendant just like that. I bought it in 1973, in my hometown, Kingsville, TX. Our local university, Texas A&I, now A&M Kingsville, football mascot is the Javelina. When I left Kingsville, I gave it to my dad, upon his death, I gave it to a close friend who is a big Javelina booster. Nice dig Kurt! 👍🏻

    @myview1875 Před 6 lety +1

    The little boar reminds me of a pendant that I wear that I found in a UK field. It is in the design of a tiger. It is made of gold. Possibly 18ct yellow and 9ct Rose gold. I think my pendant is from an early Victorian gold pocket watch chain. It could of been some kind of charm off the watch chain. Like the chain cent. Always nice to find something special. Happy hunting from across the pond.
