I'm sorry, I don't watch videos unless I know the originator is straight up. Your posts with pictures added are more my style.

Wow. I agree a purse with a brick in it is suspicious. I'm curious to know what you find out.

What he said. Got better things to do than chase clickbait.

I would enjoy the story if you'd share it here.

[edit: was wrong, and apologize.]

Then why are you even looking in "Treasure Hunting & Metal Detecting Videos" forum?

I guess they had to name the section something when they created it. Myself I post videos on historical lost treasure research here in this section.

Hey everyone. Remember that purse I found in the bottom of the river in a previous video? Well here’s the follow up video of the contents inside.



I subscribed tonight to yours, hope you do the same on mine.

Please Keep us Updated :o

I'm Rarely Suspicious .


"Rarely"

But the 2 Bricks Suggest to me , She wanted to Disappear.
& Maybe not in a Good way. Like New I.D. to start over.

Or there was Foul Play :o

I Find it hard to Believe a Purse Thief would go to that Trouble.

I hope she can be Located alive & Well with a Funny Story of Why.
like a long night at a College Dorm Party & a Dare.

& Not as a Missing Person.

BTW I rarely watch videos & Never subscribe to you tubers sites.
But I'm Very Glad I clicked on this one :coffee2:
Thank You & Don't let the Complainers get ya Down :icon_thumright:

The bottle has more mystery and unsolved answers. We broke open the bottle and found a piece of cloth with a bible verse written on it underneath the pennies. The verse is Psalms 28. On the other side of the cloth was numerous people's names written all over it. The names are written repeatedly one underneath the other. I have no idea what the purpose or meaning behind this is. I have been reading that it can be some sort of offering or method of prayer. Also I read that it might be something that signifies a bottle of tears and throwing your fears away and submitting to god. Lot's of mystery left with this one. I've found 3 bottles so far in the river with different Psalms scripture written on the notes. I could only read two of the three notes though. I'll update you as I find out more. I'm in the river twice a week out of fascination with what kind of stuff I find. Thanks for your support.

I've been in contact with the owner of the purse. She is alive and well. The purse was stolen out her car while she attended a wedding in 1987. Surprisingly she wasn't too interested in getting her belongings back. Weird. A strange twist to this story is the drivers license in the purse wasn't matching up with what else was in the purse such as student ID and credit cards. I got a hold of the lady in the drivers license and she said she has no idea how her ID ended up in that purse. She knows the lady. They we cheerleaders together in high school. Pretty neat.

So the girl with the drivers License stole the purse and accidetly put her drivers license in the stolen purse.
instead of her own


or She Stole her Friends Drivers License,
and then had Her Purse Stolen in Return ?

I'd Guess though there was an Age Difference at the time.
And the One whose License it was, was Old enough for the Bar.
and lent it out

so They apparently could get Crap Faced :laughing7:

I Still Don't get the 2 Bricks.

The purse, IF really Stolen was Cleaned out of Money.
A dark Ally or Dumpster would have been good enough for the remains.
Unless Hiding Known Fingerprints I Guess.

As long as they are still alive , & not missing Persons,
That's what Counts :coffee2:

No Idea on the Pennies.

3 bottles ? Must be some Church Thing

The purse find is interesting. I think Jeff is correct on the ID. Bar hoping at its finest is with somebody else's ID.

No clue on the bottles. But I'm no sluth.

It's all good buddy. I know exactly what you mean about click bait and I guarantee I'm not that guy. I'm legit and I just like to share my experiences with anyone who wants to watch.
