I have had a lot of votes for that recently, around here it seems most of the dumps have been built on so finding a field to detect on has been easier but I have had an offer to go to a dump near London so might be coming up soon 😉
@@VintageParagonUk We have just watched it again and yes you can see that it must be silver by the way it is worn smooth, the forgeries could never be worn smooth like that and still be silvery and shiny because they only had a thin silver wash on them and very quickly the thin layer would disappear and they would no longer be able to pass it as genuine. It was so obvious really but with you saying forgery We took it that it it was without thinking any more about it lol
Good to see you back out again, Ed! I've missed your videos. You really find the most amazing stuff in a random day out detecting. You need to show us your pile of trash finds again to bring us all back to reality. 😄
Thanks, I do put in the hours though and this video was a bit of a combination of a few trips out so a random trip out is some long hours of searching, saying that though the next couple of videos are going to be good ones 😁
So good to see you out again Ed. In Victorian time people burnt their old firneture in the fields hence the lots of finials etc in the plough. The ash helped the farmer. Cheers, John.
Appreciate seeing your video today. I’ve been hospitalized for Lou Gehrig’s disease. There is no cure. Will continue following you as long as possible. See you on the next. Cheers Ed! ❤😊
I am really sorry to hear this, I hope you are keeping in high spirits and if it helps to come on my adventures for a few minutes a week then it makes it all worth while to put them together for you 🙂
Such beautiful vistas! I wish you a whole crotal (?) bell soon, although your coins, thimbles and bits were great to see. Happy about your holidays - everyone needs time off to ramble! 😄⛏️👍
Your reportage is spot on, love the jettons (they're something I've not found myself) do you repurpose some of your junk, I mean segregate it and store it? Dave
Thanks Dave, I used to keep everything and take it to the scrap yard but have moved house a few times recently so didn't fancy to carry a lot of scrap with me, maybe I will start saving it up again 👍
@@VintageParagonUk It builds up alot. Some bits and pieces might prove useful in some other context. Agreed it's not all worth keeping. Keep up the good work Ed your identification skills are v noteworthy
@@VintageParagonUk I've watched a few. The recurrent themes are always evident with finds. I'm learning personally how one can record both signal and target, for each and every one. About 22 and I'm out of space, would like some upgrade eventually, but the excercise I'm performing is really just a record, for both parties myself and the farmer. Or that way I don't come unstuck about why I'm bothering
@@66DMJC I really enjoy meeting the land owners and showing them all that I find, I love it when they are interested and we talk about the history of the area, I think people miss a lot of the pay to dig days
U can tell if it’s animal bones or human. If the bone has round edges it’s animal. If it has sharp/pointy edges it’s human. So say it’s a leg bone( the shin ) if from the middle part of the bone is sharp and pointy then it’s human. But if it’s more rounded then it’s animal
Hi there. The bone is the proximal end of a sheep metatarsal. Be aware that the sharpness of a bone does not give information about the species. Dogs and cats that have 4-5 digits as humans and can be as pointy as in humans. Pigs have pointy metapodials too.
@@Kraunblog yes they try not to dig too deep anymore as the local archeologist has had to come to their house often but the odd one still pops up, he said they found 3 burials when they put a new drive way in.
You should do bottle hunting again
Yes please 😊👍🏽
I'll third that on the bottle hunting!😆 You blokes are so lucky you have such old history over there. Thanks for sharing Ed 👍🏼

@@VintageParagonUk hope so I enjoyed them very much.
@@FinSainzI did too, but I guess availability is a big factor. Plus, if this makes Ed happier, I vote for a happy Ed! 😅
I love thimbles, but my personal fav find is the lead thumbs-up,
because it makes me smile. 😊👍 Cheers to happy hunting, Pat
that's just it, if it makes you smile then it is perfect 🙂
Thanks for tacking us along with ya you legend 👍 😊😊😊😊
Cheers mate 💪
Some lovely finds, jetton's and hammered, and even a bullhead forgery, a bit of everything, what more could you want, excellent video.
Thanks, it turned out the bull head was real and made of silver, I probably should have mentioned it 😂👍

Hey Ed, welcome back. You've been missed buddy. A lot of great finds this trip. Take care.
Thanks, there is more on the way 😁👍
Good to see you back here Ed
Thanks mate 👍
Missed you, glad to see you back. some lovely finds . Cheers from New Zealand😊
Thanks 😊 hopefully I will be out a bit more 👍
Such beautiful vistas! I wish you a whole crotal (?) bell soon, although your coins, thimbles and bits were great to see. Happy about your holidays - everyone needs time off to ramble! 😄⛏️👍
Cheers Sheebs, there is plenty more tasty treasures to come, I have been busy on my days off 😁👍
Nice to see you out and about Ed. Those jetons are in better condition than those I find.
Hey Brad, yes they are a bit fragile aren't they, one of them wasn't half bad so wasn't so bad 👍
🔥
😊
Yes agreed, luck is created not there to be expected here
the more you dig, the more you find 💪
@@VintageParagonUk and the more u learn too
@@66DMJC I do like learning new things 😁
What’s a Jetton ? 👍🏽

Ye oldie poker chip 😂

interesting, a neighbour keeps digging up Roman bones in their garden, perhaps I should ask them to see a few just in case 😳
@@VintageParagonUk if roman, an archeologist shoud at least take a look… or maybe a csi agent… just in case
@@Kraunblog yes they try not to dig too deep anymore as the local archeologist has had to come to their house often but the odd one still pops up, he said they found 3 burials when they put a new drive way in.
Also animal bones are less porous and are thicker in cross section than the bones of humans.
