Metal Detecting and Exploring NJ

It's kind of late right now but I wouldn't be able to sleep without finishing my last video and posting it here too. I worked on it for the last 2 weekends, few hours each day. Seems like I had a great time and as always, I'm very happy to share it with you my friends.

Zzzzzzz.............Yawn

Go down to the river. Find the murder weapons 'they' threw in there.

You are there in 'southern' NY, right?

a reply to: Trueman

I enjoyed that, thanks for sharing. You must have such excitement when you find stuff. I know I would. Very cool hobby.

Looking forward to seeing what is in that last hole!

Do you use a pointer?

I use a French XP MI-6 wireless one that can be used under water too.

Yes, I use a pinpointer. Mine is not waterproof but certainly saves me lots of time.

I'm in New Jersey. Yeah, sometimes I find that kind od stuff, like the gun I found in my previous metal detecting video. Take a look in my channel.

The third object is a railroad spike.

Probably, but no railroads around. I'll check again.

You'd be surprised. Where did you find it?

You know, detectorists don't give information about the exact location they dig. But I can tell you that area goes back in time to the 1700's.

By the way, did you check those holes in Parsippany? (on the video). I know that place is very close to you my friend.

There are many defunct railroads in northern New Jersey so it's not odd to find one where there presently isn't an active railroad.

Thanks for the reply. Since you are very close to place I mentioned in my question, I'd like to read your thoughts.

About those holes in Parsippany. Asked you couple of posts before this one.

a reply to: Trueman


Never been up there, I didn't even know they were there.

You might find the Ringwood iron mine sites to be interesting, that area was active all the way back to the Revolution.

Metal detecting is awesome, i always dig up iron hoping to find iron age stuff, a couple so far, and a lot less bottle caps out there... sorry fallout survivors.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

That's what I thought. Unknown by locals. Also nothing on the web neither.

Yep, so addictive hobby. I wish I could do this full time.
