Speaking as a father of more than a few sons, the scenario goes like this , father asks son's "did any of you see my axe?" They all shake
That is a waist belt plate from a soldier in the 53rd Regiment of Foot, mustered in 1755. Very cool find sir.
You may have found the remains of one of a soldier from the British 53rd Regiment who led Indian raiders of the infamous “Royalton Raid” of 1780. Brilliant.
Congratulations! It makes me so happy when relics of such importance are found by folks who genuinely appreciate them for what they are, but more importantly, where they came from. Thanks for documenting your hunt and sharing it with us!
Thanks for the kind words Drew!
That plate is probably the best thing you have ever found. Major congrats my friend
Your excitement just radiates from the screen, it is so refreshing to see! That revolutionary buckle is spectacular. Great cinematography as always!
Thanks so much Cindy!
I've watched this episode several times so now I must Comment! Holy Cow Dude, FIND OF a LIFETIME for sure! 53rd Regimental sword plate! Not to mention, colonial spur, two largies and the list goes on! You underplay your site, I would suspect a small encampment with the mix of relics your finding, keep digging that location, there could very well be hat insignia and some super overcoat sized Rev. buttons! Thanks for sharing your adventure and HH
Thanks so much, it's a special place to be sure!!
Congratulation and Your videos are crazy good. Thanks for sharing and Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter
It's a spur
You are one lucky son of a gun! Not only great finds, but the most beautiful place to explore as well! Love your videos! Thanks for sharing, from Australia, cheers, Chris
I've only recently found your channel so I'm watching all that I can. I was wondering about bears when you mentioned your Glock. The woods are wonderful, you can almost see Mohawks and Abenaki and Mohicans tracking their enemies!
The 53rd eventually became the Kings Shropshire Light Infantry and,I believe, remain as the 3rd Battalion The Light Infantry. Incidentally, the museum of this old regiment was blown up by the IRA in 1992 when it was located in Shrewsbury Castle which was built in 1070 or so. It was a very, very easy target with no serving soldiers within miles.
I enjoy your videos very much indeed as I am nuts about American history and to see Colonial material being dug up is very exiting!
Damn your love for Vermont is a great as mine, thanks
AMAZING!!!! If that buckle could only talk!!!! & the coins are in incredible shape!!!! Unbelievable!!!!!!! Just awesome!!!!
Heck yeah, thanks Joel!
In my area of connecticut we used to call them Indian Pipes. I lived near a couple of bogs and they would be often in the woods. Beautiful . Congratulations on the beautiful find. It is incredible
Thanks so much Mary!
What an exciting trip for you! Congrats on all the cool finds and thanks for sharing!! The 1775 coin....to think it was made one yr before our country's Independence. Wow. Another great video Brad!!
I know Sally, Incredible! Thanks for watching!
So awesome once again! Thank you for sharing!
Another great day you had, one great find after another. Just got better each time. Keep going back.
Congrats on your amazing find! Even though I don't metal detect, I love the history that you share. (I'm a genealogist/researcher) I love your videos, editing, etc. Its as if you have a cameraman walking with you at times. Congrats again! Can't wait to see what you find on your next outing.
Thanks so much, glad to hear you enjoy them!!
Man those are some amazing finds. You could make a tv show with your videos. As long as no one tried to edit them. lol. It blows my mind the stuff you find that would most likely never be found if you weren't out there digging. Great job and great video. Can't wait for the next one. You are really becoming my favorite CZcams channel.
Too many ppl running to Vermont is not good.
Thanks so much Christopher!
He owns copyright to anything he creates just as I do to all my photos.
Wow great trip thanks for bringing us
Incredible Brad! The scenery, music and of course the finds gave me chills!
Man, what a day! Those were some great finds. One of your best days, one of your best videos.
With the coins, buckle, spur and the decorative piece it almost seems like an officers house.
medicchicky probably a campsite
WOW! One of your BEST videos yet!!!!!!!!!! Amazing finds! Good work!
Wow! amazing find. I enjoy all your video and thanks for taking time to bring us along.
Fantastic finds. Your intuition served u well. It could not happen to a better, more joyful person.
What exciting finds. That buckle looks just a few years old but is hundreds of years old. So exciting. I live in Oregon we never have things that old. Love the hikes and finds. I am 76 so no long back trail hikes for me ! So happy I did a lot in my younger years.
WOW Brad! What a honeyhole. I’d take a few weeks off, set up a camp and hit that place like it was leaving! Awesome finds. The buckle is the find of a lifetime for most of us! You are the Man. The best M.D. channel on CZcams
Your filming is spectacular, thank you☮️🇨🇦
Very nice Sir!! Thanks for taking us with you!!!

What an awesome day, all great finds. Thanks for the info on the ghost flower, it is pretty cool.

You have just the best blog. So gifted.
Friday's my favorite day! For two reasons! Awesome finds! Keep on keeping on! :-)
Congrats on a great day of finds! I look forward to your vids each week
Axes were probably lost in winter in deep snow when they broke. Most logging was done in winter. Great video
I bet you're right!
Green Mountain Metal Detecting Interesting question, and good answer by DHO. I’m in rural Ohio and often wonder why people would simply abandon so many of the possessions in general. I’d think a bunch of poor farmers would keep their brass candlesticks and pewter spoons if they moved out!
Ty Kendrick ... I have wondered about the spoons as well. I would think for people living in conditions such as those, any possession would be very important. Even a spoon that had broken would be mended.
Wow
Right On!!! What a find. Can only imagine who, what, when,why & how that buckle was lost. History is awesome especially when it’s in your hand.
Congratulations on the buckle! You've had great summer of finds. Thanks for sharing.
How incredibly exciting! I love your videos....soft spoken, even when excited and you never ramble on. I look forward to your videos very much. Congratulations on your finds.
Thanks so much! I definitely ramble on but edit out most haha.
Another great vid! Congrats on your sweet finds!
Awesome! Congrats!!!
Wow,Brad. Great stuff. I mean really!! I'm revisiting or seeing some of your videos for the first time.
Congratulations Brad, absolutely amazing finds!
Find of a lifetime. Congratulations.🍀

Great hunt and finds. Love those buckles, especially the regiment buckle. GL & HH
Your videos are most enjoyable . No blibbiddy-blab about settings, no loud screams from your machine, no digging plugs. The scenery is gorgeous! I even liked the inch worm and white ghost flower. You found some really great stuff today.
I am so excited for your great coins finds.
This was one exciting video! Super finds! I loved the stirrup. You don't find many in tact even from the civil war! Awesome historical relics. Congratulations!
Spur. Probably cavalry. I have a similar US cavalry spur.
Congrats on the awesome buckle and on your other finds. Love your videos.
Added this to Watch Later TV! After pizza and beer it's Green Mountain Metal Detecting Friday night! Can't wait to see this one!
Haha glad to hear it!
@@GMMD we just watched this last night finally and I have to say, that is an incredible dream find. I could tell it was a Rev War plate the minute it got into your hand. Haven't seen many and have never dug one. Forwarded your video to my Relic hunting buddy this morning. We've been digging Colonial and Rev War sites here in Northern Virginia since the mid-90s and other than a few British Rev War buttons and even one USA Continental Army button, that's been about it. To find a plate, and a marked plate from the Revolutionary War is a phenomenal find! Now that is a find that would be hard to ever top! Congratulations! Watching your video of it being dug was the next best thing to finding one myself.
Awesome, I appreciate it!!
I just loooove your videos! Your B-roll is always beautiful.....That “53” buckle is amazing. Good finds. Thanks for sharing! Stay safe and good luck....Happy Hunting.🙏🏼❤️🍀👍🏼
Super great finds !
Awesome hunt. Congrats on all those finds
I'd be hitting that spot again and again!
Incredible find Brad, that's what is so awesome about this hobby. We never know what's going to come out of the ground. Thanks for sharing. Until next time HH&GL *Chris*
well sir that was well worth the wait. congratulations on that awsome find.
GREAT VIDEO and FINDS!!
I wanna go medal detecting with this dude for real I love every show he put ons here ! Well done bro !
Great location.. awesome finds definitely worth going back!!! Love the old coins and old buckle well done 👍
That's awesome!! Congrats!!
Watching from Newfoundland Canada..... Love your videos, keep them coming
I forgot to mention that your video’s bring back such memories. My Grandparents lived in Wallingford for 30 years and we went up every summer. We always went hiking in the mountains.
Finding history. Amazing. I enjoy studying the revolutionary period. Great finds and wonderful adventure! :)
Thanks so much Michael!
This was so impressive. I’m glad it popped up
That was the best Brad! Congratulations. Patty from Settle
Love that buckle, very nicely discovered.
