This permission may not have been ever detected before, for real. Roman galore! Nice coins and among them a perfect sestercius. It seemed so round I thought it was only a mere georgian coin. The mount is perfect and typical of the roman culture. And a cut half on top of all that. If you found it (or even better a cut quarter), you know your machine is not missing much (but read the manual anyway 😉). Thank you for sharing with us this great dectecting session.
Oh thank you for all these brilliant ideas and comments. I would agree it hasn’t been detected except by my own fair hand. I thought Georgian too on the sestertius but then it had that familiar thickness to the relief of the bust 😍😍😍 I am happy to share my adventures as long as people enjoy the watch 😊 ps I will read the manual 😂
I'm so happy that you had such an Amazing day!! To be able to touch such outstanding history : ) i am hoping your next Roman find will be a silver Roman....crossing my fingers .... Loving your videos, just a joy to watch !!
Sure happy for you - you certainly persevered through the bad weather and it was nice to see that effort rewarded. Your joy was palpable and it was nice to be along for the ride. Look forward to future outings.
Haha don’t tempt me 😂 to be honest, it kind of is work, or part of it/ I’m a coastal artist and I use my finds as inspiration for colour and shape. So I will carry on working realllllly hard 😂😍
Congratulations on the Roman empress find and on your first year detecting! We have been detecting for 3 years now. Beautiful place to dig, incredible finds and what a rainbow! Have a great weekend!
Wowsers.... So pleased for you. I to started detecting 2 years ago and i was just blown away when i came across a little Roman patch. I feel your excitement and so refreshing to see you express it. Please keep doing what your doing..... Love it. Happy New Year and look forward to your next adventure 👍👍
Wow crikey eck Ellie, what an incredible outing. Amazing coins and history and that land wow needs going over again and again. That ‘coffee bean’ is a truly stunning save. Well done to you Ellie one of the most enjoyable detecting videos I’ve ever watched thanks 👍🏻
@@miss_detectorist aww bless ya, you got a teeny bit emotional as I would’ve. Credit where it’s due Ellie great saves great videos and content, a flipping great channel. All the very best to you 👍🏻
Wow! Great finds. I am so happy for you. It's great to watch your videos when we have 20 degrees below zero and 40 cm of snow. All the best for you. Best regards: Pertti
They sure are!! Very helpful and kind 😊 looking forward to meeting them as part of Team LP Metal Detecting in 2024 and hopefully detecting together sometime!
Congratulations, Ellie! What an incredible trove of ancient coins and relics. Beautiful finds! Fantastic way to end the year. Happy New Year to you and best wishes for another great year of detecting!
Detecting in northern Ohio, USA, I can only imagine. The best I hope to ever find is an old Georgian Coin. By the way, your videos are amazing ! I enjoy their artistic quality.@@miss_detectorist
@@aliendragon23 old Georgian coins are fantastic and a great score if you can find them. The joy is in the endeavour of the search, and the stories these objects tell in my humble opinion! Thank you for your lovely comment about my vids 😊
@@slave2damachinefound out - the Sestertius is 141-143AD. The other coins are a barbarous radiate 268-270 AD, a Constantinopolis 333-334AD, an empress Theodora 337-340AD and two I can’t ID as they are a little worn away. 👍🏻
@miss_detectorist well done. Looks like 200 years of continuous occupation on that site .If you find any red samion then you got 300 years as its first century.
@@slave2damachine there are red fragments, some have red outer layers sandwiching a black inner layer. I showed a bit of ‘biscuit’ pot in a pale sandy orange colour. I will keep an eye out next time I’m there.
Well you said the area was full of history!😊 get ya tent out plenty more of them there maybe even gold😊 Merry Christmas & new year great presents you’ve had😊
I thank my lucky stars I’m U.K. based for this hobby - but I do live in a relatively quiet area so this trip was VERY special. Plenty more uk travel adventures planned for 2024 🇬🇧
Wow! Just WOW! What a site! Roman, medieval.I feel your joy! I wouldn't be surprised if you find gold...What a way to end your first year! Your research really paid off.
Thank you for enjoying my finds! It’s just so EXCITING not knowing what’s coming next. The artefacts literally lying on the surface there 😮😮😊😍 just a dream day, and one I’ll remember forever!
If you can keep searching that field each time it is turned as new finds should show that are slightly out of range of your detector the season before. The small Roman site I had in Lincolnshire produced many coins and small artifacts for many years in between the vast number of nails and small bits of iron and was often very surprised what I had missed even after gridding the field many times. @@miss_detectorist
A wonderful day of finds but not the weather. Well done I am delighted for you such treasures from a muddy field. Be careful out there on your own and a Happy New Year. I wonder whats to come in 2024?
Love your excitement and emotion in finding your Romans but in time you will be as excited in finding a shottie as a George 5th penny (The green waste of coinage 😂)
Wow, finds tiny wonderful Roman coins, and is happy. Wipes away a tear and picks up a HUGE Sestertius, and then more Roman coins and what you now know is an aptly named belt mount. Just wonderful to watch, but in the passage of time of just 10 months, you now find lots of Roman coins and artifacts. Lovely video to watch back on. Edited to Add: Did you know about the XP Go Terrain App? It tracks you on a map, if you want, but it also allows you to photograph find, write a What 3 Words note and links you your Deus II. It is a bit phone battery hungry, but is useful
@@miss_detectorist Yes it ran mine down in a day, but wondered if you could use it specifically when you find something, and then pause it / turn it off until the next find.
Wow what a New Year’s Eve for us in Newzealand two videos in a row I am going to have to have a trip over to the UK mind you I will have to win the lottery first 😂 I’m going out tomorrow if it’s not to hot it’s been up into the low 30s better than being wet and cold you poor bugger . Happy new year to you and your family. Kia Kaha 😊
Well done Ellie l think you have found a very good Roman site it might be worth gridding all your finds because I’m sure there’s going to be more great finds to come. Len
Not as far as I’m aware, as they were scattered across a large area, (accidental losses) and not found together they don’t fall under the treasures act definition of a find to report, but I’m keeping all the details of location just in case of a significant future find 😊
Hi have just subscribed to your channel like yourself a fellow Detectorist I’m based in Kent and will be starting to do some videos can I ask what you use to film phone or camera ? And any advice regards shaune in Kent 👍
The Romans left in 410 or did they? I know that the Roman soldier who lost the vulva belt mount would have surely felt no small loss at seeing it gone from the belt he had made for him, probably so that the goddess of female fertility such as Maia would watch over him. I wonder if he returned to his Roman province when he had served his years in the army and had a family or did he die before he could. And so nearly two thousand years later, his soul, still wandering that field he trod once, chose Ellie, a pulcherrima fertile young woman to find it. There seems serendipity she was chosen, not a cleggy old man with no appreciation or even recognition of such a wonderful and meaningful belt mount. After all it isn't a "coffee bean" as someone wrote...the Romans didn't have coffee although if they had, they would have dedicated a belt to the Roman god of coffee. I am very impressed Ellie by your knowledge and video work and presentation and subtle dry sense of humour. I will watch all your videos until I must also follow after that remembered Roman soldier.
I was indeed inspired by that object and I realised later that I got it wrong, describing it as an entreaty to a goddess of fertility, which they weren't. It is, as you said in one of your live videos, a defence against evil, shown by how it is placed on a symbolic scutum like a shield boss. I started wondering why there are so few vulvas shown in Roman iconography as opposed to the phallus, and found out it got airbrushed out on ancient Greek sculpture a long time before the Romans took on all things Greek. I was on some archaeological digs in the old port on the Tiber in Ostia, some baths in Greece and the retired soldiers' colony at Butrintium in Albania and never knew this, I am deeply ashamed to say, but then those places were not active military encampments, whereas your vulva mount would have come off a soldier or his horse from a legion or auxiliaries fighting the Britons. As for why the phallus took over, I suppose it is that perpetual belief in men that their penetrative powers are greater than the receptive powers of women. I failed to explain this adequately to my 13 year old daughter in Pompeii when she asked why there was an erect phallus over nearly every doorway, and eventually she told me to shut up. I hope in future that I can give you more accurate information on your Roman finds, making use of my experience as an archaeologist on Roman digs.

Great coins and cut half (Henry III London mint?) but the belt mount is my favourite. I'd be very happy with a day like that!
I agree such a wonderful day of dreams! One to remember ✨

That sestertius is a belter and a cut half well done 👏
I couldn’t believe it sat there almost on the surface. Imagine what’s under there if this is what the plough has left this time. 🤯😍
Hello from Texas. Nice finds. I love digging Roman coins. I come over every year and detect near Colchester. Cheers!
That's awesome 👏

Hi Ellie, congrats for your first romans, you found a good hotspot, finding a sestercius is great
Thank you so much! It’s a brilliant coin I’m looking forward to cleaning it up tomorrow!
Absolutely lovely finds to a well deserving searcher. Congrats and I look forward to seeing you unearth even more curious treasures in the future
