  I've got an 80 year old friend who didn't stop horse shoeing until he was 74. And, he did it all by hand without using the fancy new machines, never used a grinder/shaper, just used knives, files, scrapers and pliers. He's also retired Military having split 40 years between Regular Army, Reserves and Illinois National Guard.  He retired with the rank of 1st Sargent and trained my nephew and dozens of others whom I have known. At 80, he's still as tough as all those nails you've been digging up.

  I'm a horse farrier and it's called "corrective shoeing". This is the first real oxen shoe I've ever seen! If they normally don't run the metal downwards to make a "V" I believe your farrier might have been not only highly skilled but very inventive. The flare at the base of the shoe is very specifically built to protect the bulbs of the hoof. It's also so uncorrupted in that there's no twisting of the metal it looks like it's level and perfect enough to slap on the old ox right now! LOVED the cow illustration, lol!!!

  I really enjoy your metal detecting videos. I like the fact you don&apos;t swear, you smile a lot and you explain things. You also show plants and scenery.<br>Thank you

  About double checking a dig!!! Back in the 70&apos;s I dug a $20.00 gold piece in North Georgia. Super crazy excited at the time. Came back a few days later and after hours of searching never found anything else and was leaving and walked by where I found the gold coin and scanned the hole again and found another $20.00 gold piece and two silver dollars in the exact same hole. Have always double scanned every find since. Enjoy your videos so keep them coming.

  Brad, you just found two awesome silver coins. &nbsp;Most people watching &nbsp;don&apos;t realize how awesome they really are. &nbsp;I&apos;ve been detecting for twelve years now and I have not dug an old silver coin . &nbsp;I have dug plenty of old silver coins, when I say old I&apos;m talking about late (1890&apos;s up to 1964. &nbsp;I too would be shaking if I dug an old silver like the ones you just dug. &nbsp;I&apos;ve gone to old Mexico metal detecting with friends where my friends have dug 1600&apos;s, and 1700&apos;s but the oldest silver I&apos;ve dug in Mexico was a1906 silver fifty Centavos which was awesome but not nearly as awesome as your coins. &nbsp;I live in California and most of our old parts of town have been remodeled and paved over with concrets or ashpalt. &nbsp;Keep digging and I will keep watching and am super happy for you when you find those goose bump silver coins. &nbsp; Congrats and thank you for talking us along with you.

  Oxen are castrated &nbsp;cattle over four years old trained to work. They may use a specific breed that grows larger which makes them seem like another sub species of bovine but the are cows.

  I had chills when you found those wonderful silver coins.<br>I think it was the perspective you gave, “ they were lost together and found together”<br>Just amazing. Wonderful video, congratulations.👍

  Some great finds. Silver coins where a heart stopper and the knee buckle all cleaned up was beautiful.

  One of these days Brad you’ll find a hoard of silver coins buried long ago!

  This was a day you will remember. The half-dime was the best find for me.
