Great finds another good day we’ll done 👍
Thanks Jesse! Hope all well with you! All the Best, Alexander
Great Graphic effects at the opening.....✌️
Thanks Richard... could have been better I rushed it a bit but I hadn't done it before...! It will be better next time! Thanks for watching and All the Best, Alexander
Good mixture of finds.....again!! Well done. Xx
Thanks Amanda!!! Hope all well! x
Yes, it's a rosie!😉 and yes, to us Yanks, it's not very exciting for the most part. I understand why it is for you of course.. Your discoveries are absolutley amazing Alexander. Best wishes, Caroline 🪶🍁💮
Thanks Caroline! I really like it! A "rosie" then it is! Hope all well with you over there and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
We all sometimes dig the (we’re sure) are trash signals. Keeps us humble from time to time! All another fun part of this great hobby.
Thanks DKD it sure is! Hope all well with you!
I started with this video and then went backwards and watched all the others over the past couple of weeks. This has become my favorite metal detecting channel, fantastic finds, love the trips back to headquarters and the educational bits. Can't wait for the next video, thanks for all the fantastic content.
Lovely Jetton in perfect condition, Wow!
I know Bob that really is a bit special... quite rare actually I think... Hope all well!
Great finds again Alexander. Well done
Thanks Steve! Hope all well!
Another great video Alexander with lovely finds! Thank you very much.
Cheers Thijs! Hope all well with you! All the Best, Alexander
Another great video and lovely finds well done Alexander
Thank you Peter! 🙏 Hope you have had a good weekend and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
Thanks for the video today. Always interesting and fun to watch. Enjoy the week ahead, and see you on the next. Cheers Alex! 😊
Well thank you very much for watching Martin and I'm glad you enjoyed it; I hope you have a good week too! All the best, Alexander
Nice teachy dig, Ally! You look quite sunburnt! Good fun, at least you laugh at yourself. Keep going. Loving your detector ING.
Thank you Wendy!! I love your comments! 😁
Love the buckle plate and jetton. That sandy soil has preserved very well.
It does seem to be very kind to most things that soil Paul though not everything… apart from a bit of ploughing during the wars I don't think much has been disturbed either… Anyway, hope all well with you and thank you for watching!
@@HolzHammerSagas I love your field. I'm waiting for crops off at the moment I've been restricted to one field for months but it's been fairly good to me.
@@paulr6922 there wont be much left on that field then 😁 but good luck with it!
Love that you dug that ring pull and it was Roman lol... You will have to dig them all now ;) Well done - another great video. Thank you :)
I was just saying I really can't- the place would look like a ploughed field and I wouldn't get anywhere!!! Its just the other side of that field; i have to be quite disciplined! But I promise it really is 99.9% something modern and trashy! Hope all well Richard and thanks for watching!
Great to see you back out in the fields Alexander, where you belong😄 Love that strap end too👍👍
It was a particularly nice one Bodger, I must say… one of the little rivets came out and fell on the floor but I did manage to find it even without my metal detector! If I think that was my most exciting thing that day - you can't really see the detail in the photos but it's all there! Anyway, hope all well and thank you very much for watching - All the best, Alexander
What a great day Alexander, your videos keep me entertained when I’m not in the pub haha. Great watch for a Friday night and it’s getting me excited for a pasture field which I’m on tomorrow 👌👍
Good luck on it Jay - let me know how you get on!!! All the Best, Alexander
Wish my ring pulls looked like that😂. Thanks for making me smile. Slainte 🍻
Ha! Thanks Jim! Sods Law!!!!! Hope all well with you and All the Best!
Yes, That dime is President Franklin D. Roosevelt and I believe it's silver. Wonderful finds especially the Constantinople coin and the strap end.
Thanks Tucker - i really enjoyed that day... nothing the museum would get excited about but just lots of nice things at regular intervals... perfect! Hope all well with you!
love your videos i am learning so much from them, i get back the enthusiasm too after watching .One of the best detecting utubers i have had the pleasure to watch , looking forward to your next one.
Thank you for those very kind words Roberto - it means a lot to me!🙏 And hope all well! All the Best, Alexander
💗💗 That's a most beautiful Croatal bell Ally ,they are so special you are holding a part of our history of rural life and hearing the sound of the bell that would have been so common in the fields..and what's brilliant also is that we now have our new little Jack Russell Pup picked him up today..8 weeks old and we can't tire him out lol 💗💗 he's a beauty from a farm in Stanton on the Vale ..that breeds Pie Bold ponies..might get one of them next haha! 😂 Sending our love xxxShaz 💗
My God Shaz, how exciting! What have you called him? I can't wait to see a photo can you email me one? We will have to hang some bells round him! Anyway, hope all well with you too and thanks for getting in touch! xxXxx
@@HolzHammerSagas Hi Ally 👋 have lots of photos ...Will try to email some through of you promise to let me know if you see them...a very tired Shaz and Terry this morning.. did Tasci cry a lot at night??..he's so cute and loves the garden already 😍 xxxShaz
We have called him " Merlin" 💗💗💗
@@thekingstone8632 Tasci was terrible - weeks and weeks of crying at night... he slept all day as he was awake all night.. rightly or wrongly i was very firm and didn't give in to it at all - it does stop eventually ! x
@@HolzhammerLite 💗Our first night his crying was so pitiful so Terry took him to the garden and he did go a poo and wee !!! That was 5.30 am he won't give in to sleep during the day ...and cries at night haha 😄 we will be strong 💪 we will be strong lol! but I had forgotten how the world looks through a puppy's eyes, he found and empty snail shell and played catch me if you can with a pine cone but Terry's slippers are favourite for his needle/razor-sharp teeth..will email pics soon 💗 and tell you about his mum and dad..catch you later Shaz and Terry ..glad you are all mended now !💗
Awesome finds congrats.
Thank you very much Sidney, much appreciated and hope all well with you! All the best, Alexander
Veoma mi je drago kolega🤝🤝izuzetni nalazi,veoma dobro,veliki pozdrav🤠🍀👍
hvala vam puno i nadam se da će biti dobro!
🎉🎉 fantastic video!! 🎉🎉
Thanks fly nn! 🙏 Hope all well with you!
Finally a coin I can positively ID! Take care and wonderful finds as usual. Thanks for sharing
Not at all BC, thank you very much for watching - I really enjoyed finding that little dime too, I must say! Something a bit different anyway, for around here!
Thank you Alex! Another great episode!! Please keep them coming
Will do for the time being Tom thank you! After so many videos the editing is getting quicker so hopefully will manage to do this alongside the day job! All the Best!
Hi Alex, just out of interest…what is your day job? Do you deal in taxidermy? My mother may have a few stuffed birds for sale? They are currently with a good friend of ours (Philip Serrell auctioneer) if they don’t sell or meet the reserve would you be interested?
@@cataloguekid Definitley Tom please send photos via email if Philip cant sell them! Thank you!
Thoroughly enjoy your content, excellent videos, informative as well as some truly cracking finds. You are very lucky in the land you have permission on!
I really am Luke but I have as many bad days as the rest of us... probably more! You just don't see those as I obviously try not to put out a videos of me finding rubbish all day - understandably most people will not watch them! But thank you for watching these ones and All the Best, Alexander
Hi Alex, apparently you still continues to make videos, good for us. I love the way you depicts the roman barbarous coins, pointy face, etc.. hilarious (I have found loads of them)
Apparently yes! Thanks Hervé - I will make them as and when I can but have to do some proper work too... that or just use a chest camera and edit all the clips together on my phone and send it all out that way! Hope all well!
another cracking video Alexander, cracking Jetton by the way!
Thanks BD - best I have found! Hope all well!
Great video lovely jetton and finds in general well found Alex
Thanks Bobby! And hope all well with you! All the Best, Alexander
Immagini sempre interessanti.
Ciao Alexander e buona ricerca dall'Italia.
Thank you Doriano! And hope all well and good wishes from here too!
Always excited to see a new video from HolzHammer Saga's! Your enthusiastic personality and the obvious time & effort put into producing these video's... along with the informational education on your finds... really makes this one of the best metal detecting channels from the UK... subscribers, lets spread the word about this channel and help grow the amount of subs... Cheers and happy hunting from Louisville, Kentucky USA.
Thanks for the very kind words Dean - means a lot 🙏 And hope al well ver there - looked like it was getting a bit warmer here but was a false alarm! 😁 All the Best, Alexander
Speaking of ring-pulls, reminds me of my first go detecting. 1978, me so I’ll at school, bought a cheap thingy mail order for about $20. Took it straight to our local race track/show ground/footy oval. Four hours later and 99 ring pulls and one 1947 aussie penny!!! Of course, it was the heyday of ring-pulls,and there used to be a lot a drinking going on there 😊.
Yes Wayne i suspect the race track was the wrong place to start your detecting career!!!! But well done on the penny that would have made it all worthwhile when i were a lad!!!!
Another enjoyable watch Alexander, I really do look forward to your videos, the finds are great and the quality of video is great. All the best mate until next time.. Cheers Arthur
Thank you very much Arthur! That was very nice to read and I'm glad you enjoyed it! And hope all well with you, All the best, Alexander
Great video Alex. Lol, the law of sod strikes again - of course it was going to be a Roman coin and not a ring pull 😂. Beautiful jetton in fabulous condition by the way 😍. All the best, Rebecca
I know!!!! 😂 Thanks for watching Rebecca - hope all well!
That field has certainly done alright by you!! Enjoyed the video, & your assortment of finds again. The crotal bell & buckle were cool, but I want to know here that damned ring pull was hiding. Smiling. Thanks again.
I know, that pesky ring pull! 😂And thank you very much for watching Francine and hope all well with you over there!
Another fantastic day out there Alexander. I went out Sunday morning and got one aussie 1920 threepence 95% silver and lots of junk🤣. And today a $2 coin and more scrap metal brass n copper lead, into the pile of scrap. Hope all is good.👍✌️🐨🤣
I suspect you can get a bit of money for all that' scrap when there is enough built up can't you Alan? And well done on the threepence - Good work! It's getting a bit warmer over here you'll be glad to hear… Finally! Hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas yes I've accumulated a lot of scrap over the year which I will take to the scrappers eventually 😉. Glad it's starting to warm up there, warm days here and cooler nights now. I suppose our winter is quite warm to your winters. All aok here.👍✌️
@@AussieAl420 Good stuff Allan!
Holzringpull 😅😊. Another great watch pal. Well done
Thanks Gavin - much appreciated! I have been working hard on another one coming out this evening which might be worth a watch! Hope all well!
I will watch out for it.
Found.my first Roman Pin yesterday. It is on Detecting Hub
Hi Alexander,
What a great day a real mix , it always amazes me finding things like the dime in the middle of a British pasture field, having spent some time in the US military during the Vietnam conflict I was surprised of the size as modern dimes are about the size of out farthings , yours is probably high in silver where as modern US coins as sandwich made visible copper in the middle and silver on each side .
Regards Jan .
Thank you very much for that Jan, very interesting… I haven't done much research on the dime yet but look forward to getting round to it! All the best, Alexander
Another great video well done on your finds especially the jetton and buckle 👍👍
Thanks Chris! Hope all well with you!
Cracking English jetton I've only ever found 3 in all the years I've been detecting I did manage to find a Stephen cut half the other day..👍👍
I think three is still pretty good Vlad!!! Not common as you know... hope all well! and nice work on the Stephen too!
That Jetton was fabulous Alex. Great video and clearly huge amount of effort going into your production. I need to take note and try a bit harder on Paddy’s videos.
Fantastic dig Alex
Thanks PC - much appreciated and thanks for noticing the production values! 😂 I am finally getting quicker with the editing and colour management etc so practicing makes better and it all comes together a bit faster! Let me know if you want any tips and hope all well!
Yet another big thankyou Alex for taking the precious time to make these super videos. I am liking the interjections between field and HQ. That jetton, wow, I loved that. I assume you will dig every signal in that meadow now? I can't help thinking what the detecting would be like if it were ever ploughed!
I still can't did every signal it would look like it had been ploughed if I did the farmer wouldn't be very happy - there must be thousands of ringpulls, modern coinage, tarp rings - zipper ends... I suspect you will disagree with me 😁 but i think its better to show some discipline and trust my experience and intuition on most of the signals - and i really don't want to be digging ringpulls all day I simply don't have the time!!! A deep target on that field is almost always satisfying - I will keep to those! Hope all well!
I very much enjoy your videos. It is possible to look into the distance and imagine Roman villas and times that were much wilder. The American dime was a Roosevelt dime with the image of Franklin Roosevelt on it. Cheers.
Thanks Wadoman! Good to know; it was a first for me - something a bit different anyway! Hope all well and Thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
The dime came in in 1946 and is still minted today.
If the date is between 1946 thru 1964 it will be silver. If it is post 1964 it is clad.....a copper mix.
Well was that snow in the beginning of your video??
The jetton was a great find. Imagine all of those shallow targets you walked by.......all the while being rare gold and silver hammered coins!!!
Ok holler back. Sorry been too busy....but yes.....I love Johnny Cash too!!!
I will email you soon!!!
Very good Tim, thank you! And I probably am missing out on the odd target by not digging the shallow double beeps but I promise you, that pasture would look like a ploughed field if I dug everything on it - there wouldn't be an inch left in some areas not dug so I've got to be careful and use my common sense a bit!
Wow, yes fantastic day Alex! Love that English Jetton, and the condition, as you say, is bonkersly good... 😍 Not many good days here, and I've had to cancel tomorrow due to a guest appearance from my girlfriend... That's it for 2 weeks now, if the weather forecast holds true... ⛈🌦 Ah well, more vicarious detecting here we come... Thanks 🙏 as ever matey... Bobby
Guest Appearacnce from you girlfriend?! That should be banned!!!! 😂 And the weather doesn't look too good and by the time it clears up all the spring crops will have come through! Anyway, keep yer pecker up Bobby!
@@HolzHammerSagas Ha, yes def. agree on the 'banning' of my GF in the 'working/detecting week' Alex... 😁 Yes, weather lookin' very dodgy, tho' poss. changing in about 2 weeks 🙏 Take care then ombre, and good to see you're recovering nicely... B x
@@UkuleleBobbyKemp 😂
As always great finds! I found a jetton (jeton) a few weeks back and found the use of them very interesting. 🙂🐻
I love finding them I find a lot fewer than hammered silver! Hope all well Ted - thanks for watching!
Great hunt Alexander. If the dime was 1929 its silver. Lovely Jetton
I think it was a bit later ... I couldn't read it properly and I think its copper - thing is i cant find it now to check it! Anyway, thanks as always for watching Don and hope all well!
Hi Alexander, great video once again. Entertaining and very informative. Have you ever thought about putting together a blooper reel? That ring pull dig made us laugh. All the very best to you and Tasci. Gary
Ha! Thanks Gary - a blooper reel is a brilliant idea!!!! 😂 I will def keep it in mind now before trashing certain clips!!! Hope all well and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
You earned my subscription today Sir!
Ha! Thanks Paul! 🙏 Much appreciated and hope all well!
well done alex great video as always
Thanks Dazza, as always 🙏 ! Hope all well!
I love the strap end, found a few nice examples over the years but that one is nice and decorative, i`m guessing 15th century, that pasture is still very productive and its probably down to ground conditions that most of that has been missed before, well done buddy.
Soil conditions esp. very damp but not wet, really helps - there are lots of strap ends and buckles around there in fact most thin green copper is part of some plate or strap end of sorts in that field - it sure has seen some history! Anyway, thanks for watching Brian and hope all well! All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas Makes me think it has a military or high status settlement nearby as this kind of stuff is usually from the wealthier populace in medieval times, I have a similar permission on an elevated site in Shropshire never fails to provide interesting Nick knacks, hope you are well Alex keep the vids coming 👌
@@brianpetersen2364 I think you could well be right Brian 👍
one morning there in colchester it rained until noon, got hot in the afternoon, and a front came through and sleet came down. my, the weather can change so quickly.
It can always be a bit like that at this time of the year , cant it Jeff, but still, the weather these days, I just don't know it's a bit odd I must say… Anyway hope all well with you!
Excelent finds as always, thanks for sharing. 😀 Next week I'm finaly back to England to detect, away from the frosen ground in Norway.
Cool! Where are you going to be? Good luck and I look forward to hearing how you get on! All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas Norfolk area, meeting up with some local friend witch arranges the permissions. Thanks
@@knutovekihle5001 Very good! Good luck!
It really was a great day for you! I had to laugh when you proved yourself wrong. Poor Tasci, my beasts have been sunbathing for a couple of weeks now. Hoping for the rain that is promised tomorrow. We are in Extreme Drought. Nice for the dogs, not for anything else.
My God Cyndye; one extreme to another… This weather in this world I just don't know... but it's got to be pretty nasty for Tasci not to go out- he can quite often sit it in the middle of the lawn, Very calmly sometimes, In the rain or snow or whatever!
@@HolzHammerSagas Mine are pretty much all weather critters too. We are at the tail end of a Nino pattern that put us into extreme drought. They are saying it should be flipping by late summer or early fall. We are so ready to have rain and back to normal seasons. There are also some mighty big solar flares right now. Northern Lights were seen in the Texas panhandle and Oklahoma. I saw the lights from west Texas in the 80's, so I know it was more intense then.
@@fiberotter they have been seen very far south in the UK recently; its normally limited to the North Coast and Isalnds of Scotland...
You had better start digging those ring pull Roman coins! Cheers.
I know Warren but I won't be strong enough to carry them all off the field! Hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas Ha Ha….I can lend you my wheel barrow! I have to say your English Jetton is amazing. Really nice find. Are you sure the farmer is not sowing artefacts rather than seed? Cheers.
Lovely jetton! Not only does that pasture produce some amazing finds but it's been uncommonly kind to them - it can't have had too much fertiliser over the years.
I don't think it has Stefan that's I know it was ploughed in the wars but the soil up there is not very good for agriculture and it's been left for grazing and it was mainly park land before that...
Delightful jetton and your other finds not too shabby at all 😄
Think I will be able to start detecting again here this week, snow almost gone and frost is almost out the ground although it is rather wet and muddy on top. 👍🇨🇦
Good luck Steve - good to know that you can soon get out... Do let us know of anything interesting you find! Hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas Well I got a new permission yesterday that was once an old Quaker meeting house, first signal was a bank of Montreal half penny token 1844 ! and next found three crotal bells all in the same hole !!! They are decorated on lower half and complete ringers, found several more coins from early 1900's including two silver dimes. Very happy and am back there today 😉🇨🇦
@@steveshepherd2712 Wow Steve sounds like a very good day! Well done! THREE decorated crotal bells is amazing I have never found three in one day thats just showing off! 😂 Hope the second trip went well and All the Best, Alexander
Hi Alexander. That pasture is just amazing. That dime really was an eye opener. If you got a gang of ten detectorists to comb it for an afternoon it would interesting to see how many items were recovered. Great to see Tasci.
A gang of 10 detectorists would leave it looking like a ploughed field! You have to be careful there - if i dug every signal I wouldn't walk more than 20metres and it is almost all modern trash - they have fairs on it and festivals and everything - so you have to be quite disciplined and just go for deep and borderline stuff! Hope all well and thanks for watching!
You are the gentleman of metal detecting Alex. Another great video, captivating to watch, with some lovely finds. Thank you!
Thank you very much Paul, I'm glad you enjoyed it! And hope all well with you! 🙏
Roosevelt dime has to be 1959?! He wasn't on coins till after death in 1945. Value $2.65. Think they were 90% silver 10 % copper. Glad to see you out and moving very well. Cheers from Florida.
I think I mis-read the date Michele; I haven't really looked at it properly since as I was cleaning up the older finds but I will devote a good chunk of my day today to American coin research! And get back to you! Hope all well and thank you very much for watching - All the best, Alexander
Thanks for another great video. I wish I could take in and hold all the info you have regarding emperors and dates and such like. Regards Gray.
Thanks Grahame! Hope all well with you and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
Another great video Alexander, well done. Again very much enjoying learning about counselling and artifacts as well as watching you dig them up. A perfect combination between field work and HQ teaching.
Thats very kind of you to say so; Thank you Anthony! 🙏 Hope all well and thanks for watching!
Very welcome. Forgive the typos. Fat fingers and predicted spelling is not a marriage made in heaven. I am now detecting the very Celtic site and next to a roman villa. I'll let you know how I do
@@anthonystanbury5537 sounds very exciting and promising let me know if you need a hand!
Great video mate always amazing finds...
PS I think my grandmother lost that US Dime...lol Stay well, I'm glad to see your doing well. Al, NJ, USA.
Okay Albert, I'll keep it back for you and give it to you when you come over! Tell your grandmother it's safe in my hands!😂 and thank you for watching and hope all well! All the best, Alexander
Wot no ring pulls - still a bloomin entertaining video though Alex 😊
Ha! 😁 Thanks Andrew! Hope all well!
Brilliant finds again Alexander. That field just keeps giving! Thanks for posting, regards, John.
Thanks John - it really does its a real surprise, but i am having to dig deeper and listen harder!!!! Hope all well!
Great lil video mate id love to find some small roman coins not bloody ring pulls lol keep up the great work, 👍😎👍
I know Ian, me too! But I really wanted to try and illustrate what a semi shallow target sounding good was in that field - It was just sods law! Anyway, hope all well with you and thank you very much as always for watching and all the best, Alexander
Loved this video, nice gentle detecting, just how I like my detecting to go.
The weather doesn’t matter as long as the finds are interesting , thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge, excellent detecting.
Thanks Jonny! That made for good reading! 😁🙏 Hope all well and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
That's a rather gorgeous jetton Alexander, and thank you for the history lesson .
Your detecting videos are honestly the best and your enthusiasm is positively catching.
You've inspired me.
Thats very nice to know - Thank you Jay! 🙏 Hope you have had a good weekend and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
Hi Alexzander . Your enthusiasm is so uplifting thank you . What can I say a day of epic finds and artefacts. Stunning presentation Alex 💯👍 You most certainly will gain more viewers ,hopefully very soon . All the very best ,see you on the next day out. Just amazing permission's WOW
Thanks Phil! And hope you have had a good weekend - thanks for watching!
Another great video Alex. The shell mount is 1500-1700 scallop shell with a trefoil / fleur-de-lis at the top. I like those a lot 😊
Thanks Cath! Lovely little thing that! Hope all well! 😁
Good to see you back in good health and full of energy, Alex! Congratulations. 🙂
I also see that the Merriam Webster Dictionary has the pronunciation of 'crotal' as 'crottle'. Any thoughts?
Technically you would have thought that if that were that pronunciation it would have a double T as a single T changes the pronunciation of the"O" but who am I to question Merriam W?… I have never heard it pronounced crottle and I might stick with my crotal! Anyway, thank you very much for watching Spitalhatch and hope all well with you!
Alexander, you are so spoilt. LOL .I'd happily dig a hundred ring pulls to find that coin. Oh the pain of living in a country with a very short coinage history. Congrats on your lovely finds.
Sorry Brian, we are very spoilt here and I think most of us know it... do you manage to get over to Europe to detect ever? Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas Tis on my bucket list to do just that. One day, fingers crossed.
Another great video, very well done, Alexander. Lots of interesting finds. Keep up the good work. Much appreciated. Cheers 🥂
Thank you Robert! 🙏 And hope all well with you!
Pozdrav iz Hrvatske,iz blizine Siscie😉
Super mi kad nadjes rimski novcic kovan u Siscii,kako li su samo dospjeli u Englesku...
No idea GG but we find a few from mints all over Europe - send me your address and I will send you the next Siscia coin I find - unless you have a lot already!!! Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
The lead bit looks like it might be a net weight. Maybe for rabbits.
I thought about that Rex and you might well be right but it is very heavy and bigger than other rabbity type weights I have found but I think you might be right! Hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas I think it would be for a long net instead of a thrown one. The long net is strung up on poles kind of like a tennis net and the rabbits are driven into it with dogs. We used similar lead weights on seine nets when I was a kid. You pulled the net along a creek or pond one person on each side and the weights kept it on the bottom.
Alexander, thanks for another really interesting film. I know this is a bit left field, but, have you tried Grub boots? I don't know if your Barbour's are warm enough but I use Grub Frostline boots and only need a thin pair of socks underneath.
I'm saving for my first detector and it's mainly down to you that I'm hooked on this hobby. Thanks again, Andy.
Thanks Andy! What machine are you saving for? Good luck with it and thanks for the boot advice; I have several pairs of wellingtons of differing warmth and good socks too - I am afraid I won't be changing them but thanks all the same! Hope all well and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas I've been advised that the Minelab Equinox 540 is a good machine for the money but am open to suggestions around the same price point 👍
@@andygall9397 Dont know much about Minleab - can you budget stretch to an 800 I have heard they are good...
Great video as always. Uv obviously mastered the “lite” but do you ever get cought out by coke?
Not really any more Alex, but used to - never use the Deep program in a cokey area for one, and it does help when you are in an area full of coke not to have a sensitivity too high or reactivity too low...And coke sounds "fuzzy"and never clipped which is a bit of a giveaway to - it does make a difference but you are forgiven for digging it once or twice if you are unused to it in an area! Hope all well and thanks for watching
Would love to know what the cylinder lead weight type thing is for / from and the age. I have found 3 highly crusted ones in one field.
Rabbit net weights is a possibility Penny... I will put this one on thedetctinghub.co.uk as its bigger and gnarlier than the other ones I have found... hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas please come back to me when you have info. All three I have are the same size as yours I would say, although hard to tell from a video. None of mine are consistent in weight, at least not according to my old jewellery scales. All good here in rainy Devon thank you. Hope you are well too!
@@HolzHammerSagas did you get a response from the portable antiquities page re these weights?
Can I ask please? as a novice, how do spectacle wearers get on with the ws4 headset?

How do you clean your coins please?
Lots of different methods for different coins I'm afraid Tinateske stop it; it's quite a tricky question - there are a couple of videos I have done on my other channel on cleaning bronze coins, cleaning silver coins, cleaning Roman coins you might want to have a look at… I'll dig out a link for you.
