Metal Detecting: Worlds Largest Coin Spill & 1972 Crash Site Photos

One more time w/Property Owner present. We found some!! I have also included the newspaper article. I have had some who did not believe it ever happened. Sad that someone lost their life, but it did happen. After the assembly, the next hand to touch two of these was the property owner. Amazing after 44 years in the creek.

way cool dude shareing the find with the land owner and the huge smile your wife had at the end is priceless.

Awesome job. It is very sad someone lost their life. It was really heart warming to see the property owner there to witness finding the pennies.

Outstanding job EA! You found more history for the owner. Compliments to your bride for doing a great job with the camera work.

Pretty cool. Awesome that the owner was there. I read about this story in a magazine awhile back. Awesome vid as usual.

Good hunt. Enjoyable video. Nice to see the misses along. I liked seeing the old pictures.

that's cool finding recent historical events, nice work!

That was a good thing you did with the owner. It's a personal thing for him because now he can talk about the guy with the pretty wife that found those pennies and the story behind them.. Thanks.

That lighter is around '50's. Zippos and Bics were big in 70's. Enjoy your videos with you and your bride. Trying to get my bride of 33 years involved.

Loved the video and your write-up, too. I have no doubt you will find many more pennies...maybe a deep-down bag that was missed during clean-up!! GL!!

i dont want too be the bringer of bad news but if you want to find more of those 1972 pennies look at the news paper article closer and to where the truck came to rest. it appears to be in the ditch before the little stream. the pennies you are finding were flung into the air and eventually through erosion ended up in the river most of them will still be in the ditch.:-)

[johnisabella]

it's cool you got to have the owner with you

[snickerstorino]

the novelty of knowing that particular pennies entire history and past, interesting but expected at the same time. you'd think to find anything but a 72 penny there would be strange and more of a novelty.

Seems kinda funny to get excited about a 72 penny but I was feeling it too. Great history!!!!

[charliebrown]

I just found your channel. Thanks for the video. That was an interesting story. Hard to believe there are still pennies left after 45 years. You both seem like great people. I am looking forward to more videos. What was your detector? I hunt with a Minelab.

I think they should have fired the editor of the second article (0:30) he said they were "shinney" new coins, not shiny. LOL

Do you guys take everything you find, so, if you come back, you don't find the same stuff, again??

[LazarianV]

I wonder how many of the approximately 5000.00 are still left to be discovered. I'd love to go find one myself some day.
