Yep, No 1 had to be, could only be the stater (I can't tell you just how damn jealous I am about that find!). It's been a real pleasure following your detecting adventures this year, Jake. Looking forward to watching you find much more next year. Thanks for taking us all along on the ride with you 👍
Thanks as ever Marcus, it was a cracking year, made better by people like yourself who interact on the videos and make a lonely hobby, a little more sociable :D All the best to you in the new year! - Jake
@@CrosbyCollects BTW if it's of any consolation, I did my own first gold coin dance recently. I use the word 'dance' in the loosest possible sense, you understand. More like an embarrassing stagger around the hole with my arms and legs doing whatever they wanted without any real co-ordination forthcoming from my head. Still, one has to observe these rituals! All the best to you for the new year, too.
@@CrosbyCollects No, you definitely won't be seeing the 'dance' on RUclips, Jake! I'll leave that to young lads like yourself who know how these things work. The field I was on at the time has given up loads of Roman finds, so when I saw that glint in the hole (you know exactly how that feels!) I was so hopeful it would be from the same era. But no, it was a lovely Victoria half sovereign. So in the end, a mix of elation and disappointment. But a gold coin is a gold coin. On to the next!
Congratulations on a great year with some amazing coin finds. In my opinion the smaller those coins got, the better they were! Them big hammereds looked like they been bashed around a bit, but the little ones are in amazing condition. But that Celtic stater is a dream find for me and high up on the bucketlist. I certainly didn't have finds like this in my 1st year, I didn't find any gold or any hammereds in my 1st year. Keep at it and good luck with your channel. A tip on editing, every time you did a cut when sat next to your fire, change the cropping. It looks a hundred times more professional. Its called a 'jump cut', look it up
@@TheDukesOfDerbyshire thanks Gareth! I completely agree, I guess bigger hammereds have a bigger target to be hit by the plough and more of a surface area for crustations in the ground to attach to? Thanks for the tips on editing, I’ll take a look into that. I would have liked to have used two different cameras in hindsight! Thanks for your comment as always mate! 👍🏽 All the best for 2025!
@@NeilSpencer-ok4ol beginners luck im putting it down to, its all down hill from here 😉 but seriously thank you, i couldn’t have asked for a better year in truth! I hope the detecting gods have been good to you this year!
Well done Jacob, you’ve had a great year, I hope you have an another one next year, but they won’t all be like that, but we can dream….. Merry Christmas, thanks for sharing your adventures.
Amazing first year of detecting! Congratulations and successful next year Jacob👍👍You really enjoy hobby, pleasure to wach your videos and most important you feel connection with history... All the finds are not just objects . Keep going👍👍
Well done great finds and all the best for 2025 I’m sure you’ll smash it happy Christmas and new year shaune in Kent I’ll try and get some videos up and running next year watch this space 👍👍

Happy Christmas and New Year to you Ray! I know you've found the channel towards the end of the year, but thanks for all the help and support during that time! I look forward to arranging that meet up in 2025. All the best dude, Jake!
@ no honestly it’s me who needs to thank you. These last few months my love for detecting has been flagging. Your videos have made me love the hobby again. I now can’t wait to get out in the new year and get digging again.
@CrosbyCollects I used the stock for a while then have been trying life can be simple but not really sure if it's any better. As we know you have to walk over it 😊
@@digadyke my motto is ‘if it’s working then why change it’ I imagine as the years go by and the signals become quieter then I’ll make some adjustments. Completely agree with you there!

@CrosbyCollects yeah same to you buddy, have a good Christmas. I got 9 days off work so hope to get some detecting in 😆
You're off to an amazing start. Much better than I was, took me years to find a hammered or gold.
Excellent stuff and nice run down 👌

Hya wondering what settings you use, enjoy your videos BTW 😊
@@digadyke hi! I rarely change any settings on the manticore from the factory ones they set! Most of these coins were found on factory settings.

Amazing finds!! What a good year you’ve had, hopefully next year will be even better! Although not sure what could beat that gold stater 🪙
Thanks Abby, who knows what a whole other year could bring!
