- In this week’s episode, I’m at the BONE 31 Hunt in New Hampshire enjoying a beautiful day of metal detecting an OLD tavern site with friends! Join me, Gypsy Jewels, Amanda Digger Degaz, and Miguel of Garrett Metal Detectors as we uncover OLD coins, an elusive military relic (at least in this part of the country), and… a spill that I ALMOST walked away from! Enjoy!

Stef, your channel has moved to the top of my list of the dozens of MD channels that I watch. So much fun and always authentic. This one was fantastic! I wish I could be there with you every hunt!
Thank you so much, that’s quite a compliment with some of the awesome talent we’ve got in the CZcams digging community! 😊
Great video, so awesome you guys got on a private permission while you were up here in New Hampshire! HAHA I loved the editing when you showed the multiple crotal bells in the hole! It was so awesome to get to meet all of you (Stef, Gypsy Amanda, and Miguel), Congrats to Miguel on that Draped Bust!
Was great to meet you! That field was actually part of the BONE hunt - we just had the field all to ourselves for some reason. 🤷🏼😂 Was a really fun day! Nice meeting you there! 😊
Nothing like the camaraderie of hunting with a bunch of friends and great people, and everyone is psyched for each find, no matter who nails it. There were some awesome finds in the vid, especially the 1797 DBLC, Seated half-dime, which is now officially taunting you, and the pair of whole crotal bells in one hole. Very nice vid!
Thank you! It was such an awesome time - I especially love watching people like Miguel and Gypsy get on the colonial stuff since they don’t have those opportunities in Texas! Always exciting to see them find something that’s a few hundred years old! 😊
Nice crotal bells Stef and yes it is easy to miss a spill in the excitement of the find , glad you met up with the "Gypsy" she is very genuine and cool other diggers too 😉🇨🇦
Thank you! Yes, VERY easy to get caught up in the excitement - that’s what we’ll call it! 😆
Hi Stef, looks like you had a good time. You found some nice things and had some good friends along. Thanks for taking us with you… John
We had an awesome time! Thanks for watching! 😊
@@StefDigs It looked like a good time. I wish we had those hunts out here in California. We have some seeded hunts mostly because there isn’t allot of old stuff. But we can always watch you find cool stuff. 👋
@@shooterjohn7163 the events are definitely a blast! 😄
@@StefDigs 👍
Always fun detecting with your friends
Absolutely! 😊
Cool video, Stef! Everybody had some pretty nice finds! The want to be kettle point, the seated, the copper, and of course, your double Crotal Bells, and the infantry button! Really nice finds! Keep on digging and I'll catch you on the next. ✌️ 😊
Thank you! Was an awesome day with friends at a great site - can’t ask for more! 😄
What an epic dig with some cool people! I'm headed out the door to detect at a 100+ year old homestead. Found a juniper bush near that area this weekend. Only juniper bush on 400 acres, which tells me someone back in the day planted it. Wish me luck! 👍👍👍
Ooooh, that does sound promising! Good luck out there! 😄🤞🏻
Well done on the croatal bells Stef. Champion effort. Glad you had a great time with your friends. That is what can make an event more so than the finds but you were lucky and had both. Take care mate 🦘🦘😁👍
Thanks Andrew! Yes, rallies are fun to begin with - I’m there for the people, always. Finds are a really nice bonus, though! 😄
What a remarkable haul of absolute treasures!! I'd have a very difficult time leaving that area!! I'd probably spend the night just so I could get an early start the next day!!!
Thank you! It really was a great day - gorgeous weather, too!
Always loved going to the Bone digs. Dug a trime in that field where the young lady dug the half dime.Great hunt!🤙🏻
That’s awesome! That field was pretty quiet, so I’m glad we had several other locations to choose from! 😊 I definitely was able to get out on the best day!
Great finds! Hopefully next year they'll have some sites like that open to the rest of us. Signals were few and far between on the sites we were given - I had to work hard for the things I did find! I'm glad you got the opportunity to do some digging! ❤
Thank you! Was great to see you, albeit briefly, lol! This was actually one of the fields we were allowed to hunt in as part of the BONE hunt, we just happened to be the only ones in those fields, haha! It was really chill, I enjoyed that day! 😊
@@StefDigs smart of you guys to head off in a different direction! I'll remember that for next time! 🥰
@@elisabethcole2571 evidently it was the right move! Such a fun day!
Nice crotal bells Stef! Like always, the content is excellent. Have a great week!
Thank you so much! That spill put a huge smile on my face, was a great day! 😄
Thanks for the video Stef. 👍
I’ve only dug a few half dimes in my 15+ years. Your day will come. I’ve only dug 1 Spanish reale, 1 flying eagle, 1 trime, and 1 two cent . The one that I can’t seem to put my coil over is a Barber quarter. 😭 I’m not giving up though now that I have the Manticore.
Thanks for watching! I’ve actually got 3 half dimes - 2 Capped and 1 Draped Bust. You’d think I could manage the Seated! Even have 2 Trimes! 🤷🏼😂 You’re right, it’ll come! As will your Barber quarter! 😁
Your reaction to it made it all the more hilarious
Haha, awesome! I had to laugh at myself - I’ll definitely have to look away from the viewfinder a bit more often in the future! 😂
Awesome finds ALMOST only counts in hand grenades and horses! lol . glad you didnt miss that second bell
Haha, thank you! Was hilarious playing the initial recovery footage back at the hotel that night. 🤣 Couldn’t believe I didn’t see it!
I saw both in the hole when you first dug it
It’s hilarious to me. 😂 I only played the footage back in my hotel room after I’d recovered them both… near miss there, phew! Sometimes it’s surprisingly difficult to see through the viewfinder when it’s bright out. 😆
oh my goodness crotal bell city ! Hope you find your half dime soon ! 🏴☠️🤙🤠 - Matt
Thank you! Just need that darn Seated to complete the half dime collection, lol! Well… and a Flowing Hair… and 1792 Half Disme. 😆
Happy you had a good time and some great finds to boot! Were there any other (New England-type) CZcamsrs there?
Thank you! Yes there were! Most notably Brad of GMMD was in attendance, however I don’t know if he managed to get a video or not. I guess we will find out soon enough! 😊
Oh what fun!
Was an awesome day!
Great video. Amazing you can find those treasures on a hunted site. Congratulations 👏👏
Thank you! As they say… nobody ever gets it all the first time around! 😊 Frost heaves that we experience in New England can also play a role in moving relics and coins in the ground which may help the detectors pick it up a little better the next year!
Cool digs. Taverns were very important in Early New England. For travelers as lodging on stage roads and planning the American Revolution. The tiny bells most likely were used in combination with larger ones, typical of either stage horses or sleighs (sleighs run quiet, better for other horses to hear one coming along). Check out the Carriage Museum of America (Long Island, I think).
Yes, they were extremely important for the weary traveler! I know the crotal bells would’ve been strung together with increasingly larger ones - that must’ve been a LARGE strap to include two that were the same size! As you saw, I included photos of the crotal bells on their straps - wanted to show people why bell spills happen sometimes! 😄 It’s too bad they don’t have makers marks anymore, perhaps they wore off or those bells (0 or 00 in size) were simply too small for a stamp. I love them! 😆
@@StefDigs I ran sets on my team of ponies. Such a happy sound. Hard to find good ones new, they are always a little flat sounding. The small ones would be low on the belly strap, so they often would get caught in the harness or shafts and knocked off. The upper ones would sometimes get caught in the reins, depending on the vehicle.
@@olivei2484 makes sense! That one that still rings is surprisingly loud, hah! They’re really hit and miss with how they sound. I have a 00 that barely rings because the iron “dingler” still isn’t done shedding its rust, lol. Gotta love bells - it’s a sound nobody’s heard in a LONG time whenever you dig one! 😄
Looks like a great time. Congrats on your 2 Cordal Bells. Love the Infantry Military Button. I just dug one today. I've found 3 Infantry Buttons here in Nevada. There so awesome. I'm with you Stef. Seated Half Dime and Seated 20 Cent are on my Bucket List to. Take Care Stef
Thanks for watching, it was an awesome day! As for half dimes, I just need a Flowing Hair and that Seated, lol! I won’t complain if the Flowing Hair comes first. 😂
I Hear That 🤣 Hope it Happens soon for you.
I love finding those half dimes. I’ve been lucky and found two capped bust and one seated. Have a thousand other bucket listers I haven’t found. Trime , kg1-2-3 ect. Here in Ohio we don’t find much British coins. But I have found a couple of reale. After watching your video I need to get back out there! Just not many farm fields not planted now.
That’s awesome! Half dimes are always exciting - whenever you see tiny shiny, you know it’s gonna be something excellent! 😄 I’ve got 2 Trimes, a Canadian fish scale, and 3 half dimes (the first of which was an 1800 Draped Bust half dime, if you can believe it!). I’ve probably seen half a dozen seated half dimes dug right near me. 🤷🏼😂
Great finds.
Thank you! 😊
@@StefDigs your welcome 🙂
My only half dime is a cut and holed seated half dime. 186? I guess it's a quarter dime? Civil War camp. I'm actually happy my first and only so far was cut and holed!
Awesome! I love altered coins. My first half dime was actually an 1800 Draped Bust, and it’s holed. I’ve got 2 Capped Bust half dimes too, but the Seated eludes me!
I am itching to get back to the East Coast to find some nice relics.
I went out for a bit last Thursday, but the ground is still frozen.
I'm also itching to try out my new Manticore.
Oh, you’re gonna love the Manticore! Just keep things simple for yourself when you start - choose a preset and go, set your sensitivity at 20 to start, and go! 😊 I can’t imagine how I’d feel if the ground was still frozen right now, yikes! We stayed thawed all winter - southern New England is pretty kind to us!
Great finds to all.
Thank you! 😊
5:23 I stepped on a bottle broken like that, but not as big. Swimming when I was a kid. I needed stitches inside and out. 😛Happy Hunting! Lol, why's everyone have a sucker?
Oh noooo! That doesn’t sound fun. Surprisingly, I managed to leave that bottle in my pouch all week without jabbing myself, lol! I didn’t have a sucker because I’ve got “marble mouth” pretty bad as it is. 😂 Everyone’s allergies were atrocious, so we all had wicked dry mouth!
Awesome! I found my first two crotal bells because dog tag doug didnt re check his hole. Lol! It was months later when we went back though
Hahaha, I remember you telling me that at Digstock because it had JUST happened, I think! So funny. 😂 Bell spills seem to be a lot more common than one would think - makes sense, though! 😁
@@StefDigs before my time in qh, the guys found over 20 in one spot up near charlie. I wish i was there hahah
@@RichVanWinkle37 LOL! I’ll bet! 😂 You guys always have awesome sites - happy to see you all do so well week after week!
I missed Bones this year, I had eye surgery that week, kill me I am 6 miles from there. Glad you had fun..
Oh no! Sorry to have missed you this year - it was a great time, as always! Hope your eyes heal up quickly! 😄
@@StefDigs I am now ready for the next Dig in June
@@lauriethompson8085 awesome! 🤘🏻
Fantastic! Congrats
Thank you! 😊
Great find stef
Thank you! 😊
Get hunt with great people. Ive had the pleasure of mud larking Dead Horse Bay here in Brooklyn with Amanda a couple times, she is truly such a great gal.
Oh, that’s awesome! We’ll probably be mudlarking in a few weeks when I’m up in Maine! 😄
Very nice Video 😊🖖🏽 greetings from your Austrian Colleague 😁💪🏾😊🇦🇹
Thanks for watching! Wow, you must have some really interesting digs out where you are! 😄
Woohoo wiht Gypsy yeaaa👏👍💪❤️
I don’t think I’d seen her in about 5 years! Wish we could all just teleport to dig with our friends, hah!
@@StefDigs I buy Garrett detector maxiat becouse watch her 😍 but now have nox900 😃
@@tradizione100 right on! I started with Garrett machines and moved onto an Equinox 600 when the series was first released. Poor thing collects dust in the closet now that I’ve got the Manticore (and the 900!). 😊
I found 2 crotal bells in same place in Connecticut
Awesome! I’ve seen quite a few bell spills, come to think of it. Makes sense, since they all would’ve been strapped together. Strap breaks, bells all fall in the same spot!
Did Gypsy’s triangle turn out to be a kettle point?
Still not sure on that - the context of the site doesn’t seem to make sense, however I’ve found trade artifacts in really random spots, too. Tough to say, honestly! I know she will hang onto it until she knows what it is, one way or another. 😊
Good shite, girl. 😊
Thank you! 😊
👍👍👍
Thanks for watching! 😊
I'll be a happy idiot and struggle for the legal tender Jackson Browne
Haha, well, there’s some merit in saving it up to buy another coil or accessory at the end of each year! 😁 I know a lot of people who do that!
Do you metal detect the Berkshire mountains
I never have, no! Probably a beautiful spot to detect! 😊
@@StefDigs I'm going there this fall to look for a pine tree shillings coin.
@@connorsrelicsandtreasures9862 right on! Good luck! 🤘🏻
I know that building and field. 😏
Do you?! 😆 What’d ya find out there? I know it was a pretty good spot for everybody a couple of years ago at BONE!
@@StefDigsnever hunted it, just know where it is! 👍
@@erickmischke38 right on! Dangit, I couldn’t have been far from you, then!
Great hunt. Stay dirty 👍
Thanks Wayne! Was great to get out with friends I don’t see very often! 😊
