Treasure Hunter Finds Forgotten Valuables in the Wilderness of Vermont | Metal Detecting Adventure
After a quick pitstop at a bottle dump from my youth, I hike, once again, into the mountains of Vermont in search of the valuable relics the inhabitants left behind.

‘I’m used to detecting these colonial sites and finding at least one copper a day.’ You do realize just how many detectorists just choked on their coffee out of sheer envy. I’d give my non-swinging arm to hunt sites like yours.
You found at #8.33 a device that looks like something your Mother or grandmother could identify as ladies only. This was G. M. Treasure Hunter finds forgotten valuabes….
The Velvet Grip was to hold ladies stockings up… not pants…
The sticks piled up are a samsquanch waypoint….the long one is pointing the way to his cave. 😛
Clip used to hold up stockings
Not stockings or girdle..
Your bell looks like the bell on a counter you tap to ring to call the person from the back room.
Its a whisle
It holds up womens stockings.
V nickle, a cent or no cent variety?
Maybe a desk bell.
That has the designs of a Saquatch shelter…
The tube is from a radio I have a 1939 RCA Victor K105 floor model radio I bought at an auction and a 1948 Firestone Air Chief 4-A-41 that a friend gave me. The RCA does not work yet, but the Firestone worked great as soon as I got it home and tried it. Great Nostalgia and Antique collectors items
The brass thing looks kind of like a Trench lighter but I wouldn’t think the boy scouts would need one to start a fire.
I grew up in an Old Log Cabin built in the 1700s my mother had a bell like that with the 3 clangers the hole in the top goes to a metal bracket which attaches it to the door. With the three clangers it was so sensitive there was absolutely no possible way you could ever get the door open without my mother hearing that Bell. Even a large truck driving down the road was enough to make it jingle.
That structure with the leaning tree with limbs leaning up against it was made by Sasquatch or a big foot.
Do you ever find arrow heads?
The Moxie bottles are pretty cool. I drink it because I don’t mind the taste, and because I can leave it at work in the fridge and have no worries about it disappearing because all my coworkers hate it. According to them, I might like the taste of used motor oil since I like Moxie so much 😂
That’s a hotel bell! Ding ding!
Wonder how many people waded that river bare footed?
Desk bell at a hotel.
I’ve been binge watching your videos. Great videos!! Marbles are common to find at old bottle dumps because kids would use slingshots and marbles to shoot bottles
Too cool.Memories
The bottles under the tree are probably 70’s. Ketchup and jelly jar.
What town was this in? I have a spot in mind for after quarantine but I wanna make sure I haven’t been beaten to it. My spot is in Westford, VT.
old cig lighter
What the heck what is going on out there you got a garter buckles hose buckles change purses for women holy cow LOL
BF r said to build those tee pee structures a a message to other BF. Keep ur eyes open to see how often u run across them. Ck to see is there was a tree break and where to act as the cross bar.
Bigfoot sign
I could swear i heard a Elk call in the back ground of your video
That Avon bottle was old! Do you see raised glass writing on new bottles?
that big bell reminded me of a service desk bell ?
Hey, I am concerned for your hands and wish you would wear full gloves that protect your finger tips. Digging in glass and metal can be dangerous! Be careful!
Snakes hide in those hollows on the banks, ‘ hope you don’t surprise one
Part of a Garter Belt. Maby that place was a Brothel ?
I have a bunch of those vacuum tubes in a couple of my guitar amps. I love old tube amps.
being a retired telcom person, looks like the bell off of those older phones from back in the earliest days of telephones. The phone was made of wood, and there were two bells on top that the clasper would strike them and ring. Some you had to pickup the receiver to your ear, and talk into the speaker on the phone, and turn the ringer handle. Each had their own number of rings. Or turn the lever to full turns to reach the operator. These were huge collectors items at one time. I doubt you’d find many in any condition today.
The bell with the rivet at the top attaches to leather harness.
You passed on some cool bottles, the Avon bottle is worth some bucks.
School bell maybe
So was that v nickel a no cents or the with cents type? Could that bell have been on a shopkeepers door?
That clasp is from a garter belt.
It’s garbage!
I was asked once why I hit like so often by a friend. I do it for two reasons. First, cause I truly liked it but also, it tells me I have watched that particular episode. I have been catching up today because I found a lot of unmarked videos like this one. It’s been fun. It also has given me an idea of when I began watching you. It’s been about 2 or 2 1/2 years so I have been truly catching up. Might do some more tomorrow while I clean house. As said somewhere else, you are my favorite metal detector and I have tried several. Actually, you are the only one I watch because some try too hard or don’t seem to have a good attitude toward what they do or are finding. You are calm, enthusiastic about just about every thing you find, even little things that don’t seem to be important but in the historical record might be like the bell, and you love nature. Good luck in the future and know I look forward to Fridays.
Lady’s garter clip.
There were two old dump sites on a neighboring farm when I was kid, the elderly Polish couple living there allowed us to traipse all over there 150 acres. My brother found old cobalt bottles, glass fruit knifes, I sure would like to hit those two sites again now. I moved about 1200 miles away.
Say it Brad! I know you wanted to say Bigfoot made that! 😁
Oh the wonderful stories those trees and stones could tell if they could talk!!!!
big foot builds them
Do you ever hunt native American artifacts?
