Metal detecting high voltage powerlines - I had no idea what's buried there!!

Hi fellow treasure seekers!! To honor Nikola Tesla's birthday this past weekend we decided to hunt some high-votage powerlines. I was always curious about them - but who knew!? Very excited about the finds, including silver :)
As always, thank you for letting me share my hunts with you!!
P.S. Video short and ad-free

Thank you very much for watching and subbing! I agree - I wouldn't want to spend too much time right under those lines - amazing how much power they put out. Definitely had a lot of fun detecting there, and the finds were a nice surprise. I always thought that too much earth was moved around to put those towers in, but apparently not :)

I made my wife watch this video and a couple more of your videos. She really enjoyed them. She even said something about going with me on a hunt. I'm not holding my breath though! :laughing7:

It was definitely very enjoyable - minus the EMI, but we adjusted the machines to handle all the interference...thank you for watching!
