  • Matt and I explore a small river, searching for Civil War relics, coins, buttons, and other treasures. We start finding relics from the American Civil War and suddenly start detecting what appears to be exploded artillery shell fragments from World War One. There must have been an old artillery firing range long ago.
    As always this is a how to metal detecting outdoor adventure vlog that is family friendly and hopefully a fun video.
    About Aquachigger:
    I like to make videos that promote my lifestyle of outdoor adventure, metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed. I keep my CZcams "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
    I hope to see you guys out there!

    It was fun detecting with Matt. It was quite a shock to learn that this area might have been used as a WWI artillery range and Civil War battleground. What do you think about the spirit at 6:30?

      Hi Chigg, been following you for about a decade now. A number of years ago, I remember you'd had a fan contact you as they claimed (convincingly, as I remember you talking about it in a video) that they had found a complete cannon somewhere (possibly in a river?) that they could take you to recover. I'm assuming if that had worked out, we'd have seen a video on it... but ever since then I've been wondering, what was the story was in the end? Hoax? Misidentification?
      All the best from Australia.

  • @mojavepatrol4767
    @mojavepatrol4767 Před měsícem

    Yes, your fuse looks very similar to a type 80 shrapnel shell fuse which is basically a copy of a British munition. Thats probably where all the case shot came from. primarily designed for trench warfare to deliver an overhead burst on personnel and to reduce barbed wire entanglements. That fuse was used well into the 40s. I was in the 144th Field artillery and trained a lot at fort Irwin in the 70s and 80s and we used to come across quite a few of those old fuses either in part or almost whole.
