My company recently acquired an 1880s building located in downtown Anderson, SC. The basement, which mostly consists of dirt floors, became an exciting site for our Dig That Beep crew to explore with our metal detectors. During our exploration, we unearthed a variety of fascinating items, including some rare old coins buried in the basement! We're thrilled to share our discoveries with you in this video and encourage you to subscribe to our channel for more updates!

    Great video, guys, and some nice finds. When I first got a metal detector, I went to my parents' house to detect their yard. After thats I remember the floor in the basement was half dirt. I thought I would try it and found a small jar that had 3 mecr. and 4 buffalo, 7 Indians head pennies, and 10 wheaties still keep them all in the same jar on my shelf. Again, guys, great, job. Keep on digging that beep.

    I walked those streets non stop for five years when we lived there 60 years ago. Memories!

    Cool video. We got to hunt a late 1880s basement once. We found a 1853 Seated quarter, three ringer and a 1860s seated dime. When we got home we looked that site up on historical maps and before the building was built, that location was a wagon yard. That's probably why we found what we did.

    Not your everyday hunt. Not your everyday finds! I liked it.
  • @russellponder940

    I had some incredible luck in basements. Found a Seated 1/2 dollar, Trime Love token, silvers, ihp's, wheats, tokens, and so much more. What I usually do is sift the dirt with a sifter and use a smaller coil on my detector.

    It hurt watching him scratch that seated liberty with that brush! 😣 😂

    Screw-on lids were introduced in the mid 1800's, so never assume they aren't old. Some of the the first screw-on lids were for Mason jars. 😊

    There is still likely a huge number of in building caches yet to be found. Now if you’re talking caches in old farm fields, backyards, woods, and river banks the number is in my opinion unimaginable! Great video.

    This is a first for YouTube. Underground metal detecting. Good video, guys!

    That glass piece looks like something to put ring on

    Damn!Did Mike say, "You call that a light?This is a light!"😂😂😂
  • @danstotland6386
    You can use the patent issue date in order to determine what the item was. Google has that information. As well as the U.S. patent office.

    I bet that was fun. Never know what could have fallen through the floor boards or was dropped down there over the years. Cool hunt, yall.
  • @cheaplaughkennedy2318
    This was a really awesome episode, so completely unusual and the finds were so cool. Really enjoyed this one fellows , way to go 👍
  • @ClemzunClint93
    Great stuff! There are some cool old buildings in my hometown I’d love to get in the basements of and look around
