- Just getting started on searching the old fields of a 1800's farm in the mountains of east Tennessee. Thanks for watching friends.

I've been looking for a place to move to east Tenn., western n.c. has made so many negative changes, you would think people would want our beautiful mountains to stay the same, as it has been for many years, people move here and they want to change everything, and therefore we have more crime, and everything that goes along with it.
So sad. Thanks for sharing my friend.
I totally agree. So much land being bought up by developers. And so much drug addiction in the population.
You teach the most important lesson in metal detecting, leave a place like you found it.
Thank you friend.
Thanks for the "Reality Check"! After seeing tons of videos of metal detecting where one would find a pot of gold
I decided to buy a metal detector. I live in deep Southeast Georgia.. I searched an old homesite for a day and found
nothing. I was complaining to an elder resident of the area and he smiled and told me that if they lost a nickel they
would spend hours looking for it. LOL... "Thore haint nair a penny ta be found around heer." LOL" He was correct..
WOW! Thanks for sharing my friend.
Thank You Donnie for another great video! The triangular piece of steel with the two holes is a cutter tooth from an old sickle-bar mowing machine. The holes were for the rivets to attach the tooth to the reciprocating tooth-bar. It might have been horse-drawn and ground powered, or it could be a later one powered by a tractor. Many different companies made those old mowers, and many are still in use even today. Keep up the good work, and Good Luck on finding your treasures!
Awesome, Thanks for sharing my friend.
Thanks Donnie, love to see what’s hidden beneath our feet. Someone’s life from years ago.
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Donnie your so right , these old families kept up with their money . That triangle piece is a blade section from a mowing machine . 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing my friend.
Your right Donnie you don't find treasures everytime you go out, it's about just being out there enjoying the great outdoors, love the old home places getting harder to find.
So true. Thanks for sharing my friend.
I do it for the outdoors, and the exercise. There are about 25 pieces of metal in this video. If everyone reading this would go from standing up, to all the way down on the ground,and standing up, swinging a 3-4 lb detector with one arm in between each time, they would see how much exercise that is.
@@gjyoung67 It can be be a little work, but it's a mind set to do. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Love the old home. Life after people. If the walls could only talk.
The history. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Those are some good finds!
I was always told not to metal detect my Grampa's place because he wouldn't let a penny go missing. He also complained about having to buy electricity for the new electric pump the coal mine put in the new well after they spoiled his previous well.
That was in the 50s in S/E Kentucky.
Thanks for sharing my friend.
Nice place your detecting at unique finds. Love the old log cabins, green grass and daffodils spring is on the way. Respect for landowners not only goes for detecting but for hunting and fishing as well. 🌼🌿🏚
Thanks my friend for sharing.
I always been told look around old homes, fence posts, large rocks and even trees. Where folks would use these as markers for burying money or other objects of value. Also it was known some folks would hide valuables in window frames, where them old windows would slide up and down in or in the spot where window weights would travel in. Even those old window weights are of value, but I ain't gonna tear up a house to check it out. Ain't respectful. One time We were adding steel and flooring in a school. The walls were filled with news papers dating back to 1947. They uses for insulation.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing my friend.
Nice as always, makes me think of my grandparents. Times were hard back then, but life was a lot simpler and better. Today's world is terrible, with all the lies our greedy and power hungry government tries to feed then world. I would like to have lived back then. God bless you Donnie. Your friend from Maryville, Tn. 🦌
Well said! Thanks for sharing my friend.
Jack, I'm no spring chicken and I don't think the world is terrible. Enjoy your memories, but don't live in the past. Approach each day with as much joyful anticipation as you can muster, be open to new experiences and you'll be fine. You may be disappointed a time or two, but that is all. The world is wonderful, it is a few people that are terrible. Avoid them and then limit your TV watching. Live your best life.
Well said Donnie I agree ,we are blessed and thankful for the people in our lives and family! And of course the Lord!
@@jackkeeble9272 Amen my friend.
It's a shame those cabins are going to waste. Nice to see the old relics you dig up
Thank you friend.
The old cabins and the zinc canning lid reminds me of my Mammaw. Different world...different time. Thanks for triggering good memories, Donnie. God Bless!
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
we really enjoyed this video and today is Feb 19 2024. we hope you are recovering from your surgery and look forward to seeing you video again soon, until then we will continue to watch your older ones. God bless you
Good Morning All☕Thanks Mr Donnie😊💜
Good morning! Your very welcome.
Loved this area with its cabins! The things you found today could be in a museum…the wagon hitch, the door latch and the canning lid…great finds. I like that you teach about respect for the property and the land. Great video!
Oh wow! Thanks for sharing my friend.
I’m 58 and you help inspire me to keep going even when my knee is killing me. Your luck will change keep swinging. I love that farmstead.wish I could find and get permission to hunt them. Most people are just to concerned that your gonna wreck there property by diggin. Good luck on your future hunts and I be there watching!
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Thank you Mr. Donnie, it is nice to see grass, have not seen grass in 6 months here in N.D.
Sorry to hear that. Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Look at these things, especially that can lid.. At some point in time, tired, hard working hands of a Momma or Granny screwed that lid to feed her family. Some Daddy put that door latch on to protect his precious family.. Nails that held a house together and made someone a home.. What amazing finds. Thank you for sharing these adventures and finds. For taking us to a time where precious simple folks were trying to survive. These things were precious to them. Looking forward to more videos. Thank you again.
Awesome my friend. Thanks so much for sharing this. Your very welcome my friend.
🎭I love the romance of the old log houses 🏕️and the silence they bring; with thousands of stories to tell us if we listen.Thank you Donnie
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
There’s some old coins and no telling what in there see you on the next video sir be safe and GOD BLESS you my friend Amen 🙏
Thanks, you too! Thanks for sharing my friend.
You had some decent finds today. Some interesting items. They each make a contribution to the story of days gone by. Thanks for what you do, we appreciate you resurrecting the past. your friend, Louise
it's great your documenting these old cabins,
Glad you like them! Thanks for sharing my friend.
Another great outting and getting some fresh air. Thanks for Yr videos. GOD Bless
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
I wish I had dirt like that at my house !! That would grow a fantastic garden. Tomatoes, squash, okra corn, turnip greens .............. Good Stuff
Thanks for sharing my friend.
At 15. 50 est time. Form a gasket & other mechanical supplies came in very well made tubes like that back in the day.? Cut it open see if any leftovers to try pin point what it was. Appears they did lot there own repairs there, that was normal nobody could afford hire it done unless trading supplies with work deals. Them old cars specially in the 50's had some great high nickel content chrome parts on them that still look brand new to this day over there good workmanship.
WOW! Thanks for sharing my friend.
some more good old finds thank you sir for sharing your video
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Hello Donnie lots of fun nice old cabins looks like a post holder on a wagon. Have a great day.
Thanks, you too! Thanks for sharing my friend.
Absolutely beautiful country Donnie. I used to go with my dad about 40 years ago when he would go out digging around. He loved to go to old schools and churches. His equipment wasn't as modern as yours but we had a lot of fun. Enjoy all of your vids. Greetings from North Mississippi. Stay well.
Thanks my friend for sharing.
Hi Donnie....some neat old finds ...on that first hit I thought you might of found the top of an old civil war canon...
Such a nice old property ..if those old cabins could talk...alot of life and living went through there..Thank you for the Video Brother.
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Always good to see another metal detecting video. Hope your doing well Mr. Donnie.
Thanks, you too! Thanks for sharing my friend.
What a beautiful place to hunt, Donnie! I like the wagon hotch piece, very cool! Canning jar lid, old door latch, square nails...real pieces of history there!💖
Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Wow, what a beutiful setting to hunt, so peaceful. I use to hunt an old family place back in the day and found many treasures like yours there. It's like fishing alone on a serene pond or lake, just you and nature and God. Peace be with you.
Well said! Thanks for sharing my friend.
Another good video Donnie! You talked about respect. I think that's one of the main reasons I love watching your videos so much; your respect for God, nature, other peoples property and other people. That's rare these days. So many people just don't have respect anymore, except us old timers and a few young people, like the kids at my church. I still shoot a lot of 45 ACP, but more 9mm. It's cheaper to reload but nothing's cheap anymore. 30 years ago I could reload 45 ACP for about $4 bucks a box. These days primers are nearly $100/thousand. That's nearly $5 bucks a box just for primers! I keep hoping prices will come back down a little. Thanks again for all these videos.
Awesome my friend. So glad you enjoy them. Thanks so much for sharing this. God bless you my friend. Thank you.
Howdy Donnie- great video. Love them old log buildings. Take care and God bless
Thanks, you too my friend.
I loved the things you found today. Also, I love that cabin. Can you ever go inside and let us see them? Oh, how I would have loved to see inside! If you make it back, please let us see the inside of the old farm house. Any others you are also near. I love old farm houses. Thanks for the respect of the land. What a friend of Tennessee you are. Good man. Much respect for you.
Thank you. Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
That was so much fun!! Donnie, I love going with you to metal detect bc you always find such good stuff. That hitch or whatever it is is fantastic to find. Thanks so much sir for brightening our days with mystery finds!! God bless you and your family! Blessings always!
Awesome my friend. Thank you so much. God bless you. Your very welcome.
Donnie, that was good, i'm loving this, NEVERNOMIND Y'ALL HAVEN'T FOUND GOLD, this is all memories hey?.

Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Awesome metal detecting up near a old barn I love me some old abandoned barns there's no telling what is hidden underneath below the ground love metal detecting you'll find all sorts of things below no telling what you'll find very interesting stuff can pop up maybe relating to the civil war or something metal detecting is awesome great stuff Donnie very cool
Thank you. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Your welcome happy to be sharing buddy
Good fine Donnie you know I look at the old houses and the barns people don't realize how much work when into those places
So true. Thanks for sharing my friend.
good video nice finds
Thanks my friend.
Good morning buddy
Morning friend.
Great video. You are exactly right, some of the gold finding channels I see, the guys are digging up impossible finds and coins by the handful from the 1800's. Your video is honest and in my opinion, more interesting than the fakes.
Thanks for sharing that my friend.
Love your videos Sir . You probably know this , but when I metal detect an old home place I always go to where the clothes lines were hanging. The money would fall out when they were hanging clothes . I've found some good coins looking there . Much Love sir from Alabama
Thank you. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Hey Donnie, that looks like a great spot to keep coming back to. You just never know what may turn up. Very much liked the video
Thanks 👍
The triangle piece is a tooth from a sickle mower, I really enjoy your videos, I think me and you would get along real good
Thanks for sharing my friend.
The triangle piece looks like a blade off an old mowing machine. Enjoyed your hunt Donnie, Thanks for Sharing Friend, have a Good Weekend 🙂.
Thanks for sharing my friend.
Enjoy your videos. (Acp) automatic colt pistol.
Thanks my friend.
These really old home stead’s are full of “junk” or “trash” because the home and barn refuse was piled and burned to ash …. Then scattered around the gardens or flower beds. There wasn’t hardly any spare money. And the money they had was kept save. Not carried in their pockets to be lost.
Well put. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Good morning Mr. Donnie. Your 1st target got my attention when you pulled it out it looked like it might be a metal box with some treasure in it. Good hunting my friend.
Thanks for sharing my friend.
Just found your channel we live in northwest Tenn in Gibson co.
Awesome! Welcome friend. Thank you. Thanks for sharing my friend.
I’m from Georgia I love metal detecting man we hope for that gold coin and they have robbers cave over here too well I’m glen I subscribed to you man hope the best for you brother
Awesome! Thanks for sharing my friend.

Hey Donnie sir it’s short sleeve weather here in Tn right now and supposed to get 3-5 inches of snow here tonight and tomorrow morning
We are expecting 4" here.
Mr laws that big piece you have looks like it's for lumber construction. Maybe a wagon foot rail or a well cross member mount. I know for a fact a piece of wood fits into the big end. I've use things like that on decking handrails.
Thanks for sharing my friend.
I love watching vids like this. But feel kinda sad for the old homesteads. I look at them and wonder what it was like back then. A passel of kids running around. Mamma in the door, baby on her hip, looking out so see what mischief the youngin's are getting into. Men out in the fields working. Or maybe Grandma or Grandpa rocking on the porch just reflecting. Any number of things. Then what ever you dug up gets me to thinking...who was the last person to use that? Did they lose it and was looking for it or???? I love history. My cousin and I do detecting here. But we never dig up near what you find. But Oregon hasnt been homesteaded for as long as the south or east has..
Awesome! Your very welcome. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Hey, Donnie,you ever detected an old swimming hole? I'd love to see what you'd find?Thanks for your videos,I enjoy your adventures!
No I haven't, but great ideal. Thanks for sharing that my friend.
2.49. Almost remind myself of a motor or transmission mount. Missing the rubber.
Thanks for sharing my friend.
Thank you Donnie 😊
Your welcome my friend.
