We Went Back… and Hit SILVER! (Epic Mill Pond Hunt) (E.166) #silver

Step back in time on this incredible father and son metal detecting adventure at an old mill pond! On an unusually warm 60-degree day in New England, we return to a spot that’s produced great finds before—but this hunt turns out to be one of our best ever. This long-form episode is packed with history, featuring amazing mudlarking finds and metal detecting discoveries from the 1700s and 1800s. From colonial-era relics to beautiful old coins, this location just keeps giving! In the muddy shallows, we uncover 1700’s clay pipes, 1800’s clay marbles, vintage glass marbles, and antique bottles that have been hidden for centuries. Every scoop reveals a new piece of history. The mudlarking alone is worth the watch! Along the shoreline, the metal detector lights up with incredible signals. We recover THREE silver items along with a variety of old coins, relics, and mystery objects that tell the story of this historic mill site. This is what metal detecting in New England is all about—history, adventure, and unforgettable finds shared between father and son. If you love metal detecting, mudlarking, treasure hunting, relic hunting, coin shooting, and uncovering early American history, this is a video you don’t want to miss. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more metal detecting adventures! #metaldetecting #mudlarking #treasurehunting #relichunting #silverfinds #oldcoins #colonialhistory #claypipes #marbles #antiquebottles #historyhunters #newenglandhistory #metaldetectingfinds #treasure #coinshooting #metalDetectingUSA #fatherandson #outdooradventure #losthistory #1700s #1800s #silvercoins #historicalartifacts #detectorists #treasurehunt #explorehistory New episodes every week — and don’t forget, our monthly giveaways are rolling all year long. ————— We are proud to be an affiliate of Ultimate Finds Box, a company dedicated to protecting the coins, relics, and artifacts we recover while metal detecting.
