The Treasure Vault


To see the video click here

As I sit through winter and dream about warmer temperatures, I decided reach back into the vault to see what kind of unfinished videos I took over the summer. I was surprised with what I found.
All of these videos were taken on one piece of property that dates back to 1817. We were given special permission to detect there. As I look back (now) at all the items we found, I didn't realize how awesome and lucky we were to get the chance to dig on the property.

From Civil War relics, silver coins, rings, tools, a tunnel etc. this property has produced a treasure trove of finds. The items below are just a few of the items we have found. But as you can see, the quality and quantity of relics was superb. You don't find too many places like this anymore. Check out the video to see the live action.  


Gold plated broach or something.
