Metal Detecting Mud Flats and Shoreline: Down East Maine

Metal Detecting Mud Flats and Shoreline: Down East Maine

Metal detecting the shoreline and mud flats at low tide way up in Downeast Maine is the adventure for today. This was a fun one and I do find some old coins and other interesting artifacts. Good ol’ Billy Milliken was my guide and if you have an interest, he owns a long time family real estate business and here is the link. Tell ’em Chigg sent ya! http://boldcoastpropertiesllc.com

    17:32 Think you can just make out a โ€œ1818โ€ on the back. Nice find!

    You the man Aquachigger

    Why is the tide change so drastic up there…?

  4. Andrew T on August 11, 2022 at 10:01 am

    At 14:39, it look like there is a coin in the left of the screen, just below the half way down point?

  5. Jeremy Himes on August 11, 2022 at 10:02 am

    Are the wholed coins commonly found around water? Fishing lure possibly?

  6. Martha Fenimore on August 11, 2022 at 10:03 am

    Wondering if you ever identified the coins? I thought I could see a border on the one you thought was a dime and maybe a silouette on another.

  7. Ran March on August 11, 2022 at 10:04 am

    With so many detector users going by the tone of signals running on all metal mode, I’ve always wondered why buy a detector with discriminate mode? Do you ever use the discrimination settings?

  8. Fresh Potato on August 11, 2022 at 10:07 am

    Nice video! Doing great job! Check my videos if you want ๐Ÿ™‚

  9. CheapestGamer on August 11, 2022 at 10:08 am

    That certainly looked like a coin along the left hand almost center of the screen at around 14:38. Anybody else see it?

  10. Treasure Monk on August 11, 2022 at 10:08 am

    Sweet! Viking treasure is all Iโ€™ve found in England!

  11. Thomas Surette on August 11, 2022 at 10:08 am

    You need to come inside Maine to the Benedict Arnold Trail you’ll find all kinds of wartime cannons

  12. Slim WantedMan on August 11, 2022 at 10:10 am

    14.10…. they still lost it

  13. David Jipson on August 11, 2022 at 10:11 am

    Glad to see you up here in my neck of the woods Chigg!

  14. Pleeman01 on August 11, 2022 at 10:12 am

    Awesome to see a little love for my stomping grounds in Maine! I live in Damariscotta but I would love to know exactly in Maine this is?

  15. john atherton on August 11, 2022 at 10:14 am

    We call them sinkers here in the uk.

  16. Andrew Brady on August 11, 2022 at 10:14 am

    I spent my childhoods a clam digger in Harrington Maine.

  17. lostsignalreception on August 11, 2022 at 10:15 am

    I cast my own blackpowder bullets, I can’t believe the amount of free lead you pull out of the ground! Can I be your shadow ๐Ÿ™‚

    Downeast Maine- doesn’t get any better!

  20. Jason Jones on August 11, 2022 at 10:17 am

    You should metal detect off river road in Windham,or along the presomscot river near portland. or the old Oxford and Cumberland canal in westbrook/portland. Oldest parts of the state..

  21. dennis jamieson on August 11, 2022 at 10:18 am

    I enjoy watching your streams. Your voice is easy to listen too. Hope to see you find a coin or two or some old stuff from early years

    Hi from Greece.Thank You for your amazing videos.

  25. Samantha Cotterill on August 11, 2022 at 10:20 am

    Social distancing is my main aim in life. I live on the edge of the north yorkshire moors, it’s beautiful โคhalf an hour one way and you have whitby (Dracula anybody ๐Ÿ˜) half an hour another way and there are steam trains, half an hour another way and there’s bits of roman road. I truly love it here! No need for anything social at all ๐Ÿคฃ

  26. Cellerfeller on August 11, 2022 at 10:21 am

    Man I would have really combed that area for sinkers where you found the net weight – saves five bucks each if you are a striped bass fisherman ( and I am) . Enjoyed the video as always!

  27. Carl Carleson on August 11, 2022 at 10:21 am

    First time commenting on one of your videos- I’m in Nova Scotia, and earlier this spring I dug a "coin" in a coastal area where the first setters from Mass had landed. Anyway, the "coin" with the hole turned out to be a temperance Society token/pendant. Just thought I’d throw that out there in case you were still trying to figure it out. LOVE your videos! Lol, thanks.

  28. aserta on August 11, 2022 at 10:22 am

    Both theories might be right. On the one hand you do have easier storage if you string them, on the other, European culture(s) has/have a lot of examples of gold and silver coinage being worn as a … forgot the specific word, but as something given by the father of the bride for the new family or even as heirlooms. My own family, which has a roots all over Europe, has quite a few such set pieces where for example a silver 1920 franc, with a bunch (15) of gold 1910 20 francs pierced as a chest piece (think like a rhombus net under the coins) with little pearls as spacers. Weird things people of the "ground" did back in the day.

  35. David35445 on August 11, 2022 at 10:34 am

    I’d say by the looks of that tide you are somewhere in Washington county. Reminds me of the banks of the St. Croix river up my way. Somewhere near Calais or Robbinston. I stand corrected, more like the Bar Harbor area.

  36. katrina barlow on August 11, 2022 at 10:35 am

    we also call them ‘sinkers’ up in the north east u.k

  37. Vic Coni on August 11, 2022 at 10:36 am

    No poaching there as the high – low tide shoreline is federal property.

  38. Lana Simpson on August 11, 2022 at 10:37 am

    Are you on a sugar high? Your speech is fast.

    Chigg’s ! ๐Ÿ™‚ Another nice video. I am wondering every time I see your videos though. How do you dare to not wear gloves? My experience is that there are sharp and or pointy things everywhere. I love your videos! Please give your fingers a little more protection. ๐Ÿ™‚

  48. Shane Chick on August 11, 2022 at 10:56 am

    Chigg, had I known you were in my backyard I would have had you over for a lobster bake! Next time.

  49. Shane Chick on August 11, 2022 at 10:58 am

    During WWII the military fenced a ton of the coast of Maine to keep out zeee Germans, imagine having that detail… In fact there is a story of a U-boat making it past the defenses in Portsmouth Harbor and someone sending a postcard from the city. Not sure of the validity of any of those stories but they sure are great folklore.

    Slow down please.
