Just found your channel my first time watching and its a Great video. You should start carrying a bag with you and start cleaning whenever you go detecting! I know most people do so just to do a little something for the environment 👍✌️
@ rayon 3383 I've been following Si and Nicola for years and you'll be happy to hear that not only do they ALWAYS take out all plastics and rubbish when they lark, they also do A LOT of volunteer work cleaning rivers and water ways of rubbish. They have a stack of videos on it so be sure to check them out 🙂🇦🇺
@@iamshotty That's awesome thanks for letting me know about that. Like I said I just found there channel and will definitely keep watching so thank you again and God Bless
just to let you know that I just watched your video from 5 years ago...GUN found mudlarking the Thames, and you came across a conical glass bottle, and it said underneath that it was an old glue bottle, it was, and the name of the glue was GLOY, aand it had an ingenious rubber top to it so when you pressed it onto the paper, a slit opened up and allowed the glue to come out, and as soon as you released the pressure, the rubber returned to it's origginal shape and sealed itself. I used it in primary school age 8-10 , and i'm 69 now...
We had those here in the states too, same time period. Wracking my brains trying to remember the brand name here, lol.. they were brown bottles with that red rubber slanted top
@@globalheart they were clear bottles in the UK, just looked them up and it's still on sale, but the glue is brown now, not the grey wallpaper paste type we used at school, and I remember that a programme that was for kids on the BBC, Blue Peter, used the exact same thing when they constructed something every week 😂
The actual glue, not the brand name is muscillage. Not sure if I spelled that right. I think it might have been derived from aquatic plant or animal sources.
Hi Si! That American dime has an image of Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) on it. He contracted polio as an adult and spent most of his time as president in a wheelchair. He was one of the founders of the March of Dimes, a non-profit that still exists (since polio was mostly eradicated after the vaccine became available in the 1950s, the changed their focus, and currently serve to help new mothers and their babies). When it started, it raised funds by asking kids to donate a dime, and the funds were used for polio research and to help victims. They raised hundreds of millions of dollars over the decades. After his death, FDR's image was chosen to be featured on the dime, starting in 1946, because of his work on this. I'm 63, and I remember the annual drive in schools for the annual March of Dimes campaign. If you brought in a dime, you got a little tin pin. I wonder how many of these an American mudlarker might find?
I used to remember when the American coins got cheaper and became plated. We knew as kids to look at the edges of coins to see if they were pure silver or plated over a copper core. Maybe in the 1940’s dimes and quarters used to be silver. Used to find Buffalo head nickels and wheat pennies.
I got some insight on the pearl ring. The design and type of pearl says it was made in India. I have relatives from India and friends. They are made in abundance. Gold and silver were very affordable at one time. Cheaper than imitation in the West. I would bet you that while offerings on Indian Holy days were performed down at the river, it slipped off of someone's finger. That is 100% silver with a cultured freshwater pearl. The settings in India are never made for common folk perfect like in the West. The metal is soft and moulds around the imperfections of the shape of the stone. Good find!
That was so fun watching. You two are so fun to watch. So glad they drained the area. What a wealth & variety of historical items...between the vulcanite stopper to the bell with ringer...just wow! Hi Nelson & Daisy!
When Lake Mead dried up it exposed bodies stuffed into 50 gal metal drums... You're in a spot thats' alot older...Its a certainy that theres' bones of a few thousand years old,in the Thames.. Over here in the States finding stuff usually no further back than 18th century. ...You English have "Hadrian's wall" And Stone henge!! Finished thousand years ago.... Awesome respect from St Petersburg, Florida!!!;
Excellent finds! Your "half" coin I believe is actually a pin, the soldiering points is where the bar for the pin went I believe. Wow so many coins! I wish I could of been there! so looks like fun!
What a great day out in the mud! So many awesome finds by my favorite two mud buddies! After work on Sundays, I so look forward to seeing you on your adventures! I hope you have a great week Si and can't wait to see where your next adventure takes you! Hi Nelson and Daisy!!!!!
Hey Sy, could you go through some of your previous mysteries items that you might have or might not have solved to a top 10 list so we can go back and look at it
Well, first find goes to Nicola. Si, you have butterfingers today. American dime has Roosevelt on it. New word- partifact😄. Nice Pearl ring, now you have one for the pinky and one for the index fingers. Good one 👍
Hi Si! Great to see you mucking about with everyone.That was very cool with all the coins and rings..it gets the imagination going on who,and how,they got there all those years ago! Love the story of the bell.So great how volunteers are cleaning the reservoir.
Hey Penny. Thank you so much!!! Had a busy weekend at the reservoir once again (got to take advantage of the dewatering situation) then detecting a few fields today. So tired now! Much love my Angel 👍🏻🐾🧡🧡🧡
i always love seeing the bells found - image a romantic walk down a country lane a few hundred years ago & hearing bells tinkling as life stock graze in the fields. Nelson, hope your mouth has healed well. u are such a handsome boy & Daisy you're a darling.
Simon, This was a real winner of a day for you and Nicola. I've been away from your channel for quite a while, but this is a great way to return! Cheers, Rik Spector
Si, that was great fun to watch, sorry I missed the premiere. That cut coin/medallion at the beginning, the back with the two partial holes, looks like someone attached a pin back. I hope that made sense.
Hey Si, i lost my favorite sterling ring in Lake Erie whilst swimming back in about 1971, so keep your eyes open!! I'd just come here from England, so maybe it's made it back home by now 😂
@colleennikstenas4921 😁 yes, hi there!! I saved and saved to have the $5 to buy it when i was a kid..it was small, had a marquis shaped small turquoise. Finders keepers!!! 😄
A day for rings for you and Nicola. The gold ring was quite a find as well as the lovely pearl ring. It's always great to see you two out mudlarking together. 😊
Daisy & Nellie look beautiful modeling the bell! 🐈⬛ 🐈 What a terrific day of mudlarking & metal detecting. Youse guys found ALL THE THINGS - CONGRATULATIONS!! 🔎❤🔍
I love the way Si and Nick are such comfortable mudlark friends. They are so easy to watch without the over exaggerated enthusiasm that other RUclipsrs have. You guys are cool!
Hi Si, I'm really enjoying the drained reservoir videos. The (very droppable) cap/ cover piece you found near the beginning of this one looks like a bracelet piece. There would have been several strung together (depending on the age it could be silk cord through to nylon jelly roll). I could be wrong, but that's what it reminded me of, as I have many. They turn up a lot in my bags of broken jewellery and bead purchases. Could be a precious metal, but more often than not, it's a base metal that's either plated in gold or silver... or painted in gold or silver paint. 😂 I can send you pics of other examples that I dug out of one of my jars while watching the rest of the video.😅 The centre can be anything from a plastic/ acrylic inlay, enamel, cloisonne, through to semi precious gem stones, crystal, or flowers in resin. Generally part of a fast fashion/ costume jewellery of the day, but could still be fast fashion from 100 years back.😊
How fun! Nice that you❤ are respectful of the offerings, and thinking of things like leaving the big pots for fish. Thats thinking outside the box. Glad you both found some jewelry.
Great finds. The SJ on the ring could stand for Society of Jesus which I think could be the Jusuit order of Catholic Priests. The pearl ring is beautiful.
I really enjoyed seeing the livery button and the names of the families it might have been associated with. So cool. Love your sense of humor, Simon.😂. Great video!
What a good day for you! Wow you get the best offers!! A real treasure trove with rings galore - so jealous! Thank you for sharing. How magical to ring the bell after so long. I think your little glass cap was a watch. The signet ring with sterling probably dates to the 1920-1930, they didn’t have to hallmark lighter pieces that or it’s American. I reckon Sheba was an Alsatian - lots were called that in the 1970’s! I just watched Nicola’s video where you were seen speeding past the fort on the hovercraft! If you know, you know 😂
Nice finds both!! Must be so much more out there. I think the 'puffin' is a toucan, wonder if it's from Guinness? The rings are fab, trust Nicola to find a butterfly!!! Love the bell, looks great of poor Nelson. My cat had most of his teeth out last year, he drools everywhere now bless him. Always great to see Daisy as well - oh and you of course 😂😉
Hi Simon, Nicola, what interesting finds. The Dime is US president Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He served between Years 1933 to 1945. He was our President during World War II. Friends with Churchill. One dime is 10 cents equals 10 pennies. Longest serving President in United States history. A little history for you both. Great video. Joyce❤️🙏🇺🇸
Hey Si, just a guess but I think the halved coin you found might be a small cabinet hinge decoration. Probably homemade. It would explain the holes in the back of it too. The other half could have been on the other side of the split so when you pulled the drawer or cabinet open it gave the illusion of being split while when it was shut it may have helped hide the presence of a cabinet. I only suggest this because my parents over here have restored a lot of antique furniture and I’ve seen stuff like that before. But we also live in the states and not the UK so it could be different in regard to the furniture over there. Anyway, just a thought.
OMG! I loved all of this! I'd forgotten how huge our coins used to be, for a shilling (one bob) I could buy (in 1965 ) a portion of chips, a Milky Way and the Beano . . . sounds like a good night in! My fave was the crotal bell, it made me well-up, so old and so English . . . fab. . u . . lous! Thank you so much.
EEEk!! I feel your pain Nelly, as I've been to the dentist too this week! Darling fur bubbas. And cracking finds from you both but my favorite is the Crotal bell, which were also used on horse-drawn vehicles. LOVE it Thank you both! xx Teresa ❤🇦🇺
THe little silver embossed item may be the corner from a sterling desk set that was on the corner of the big blotter, there was usually 4 of them..(why its hollow)
It would be neat if you designed a signet ring in the style of the SJ ring you found (obviously different second initial) to “sign” all your work with! What a fun day, Simon!
Nice finds from the Mud Lakers Duo! I would think this location will not be here very long. But it is a unique place to hunt. See you on the next. Cheers Si and Nicola! 😊😊❤❤
Great to see a Pepsi bottle from the 1950's. I still have a small collection I saved from my grandmother's barn in Colorado back in the 1980s. One each of 6, 8, 10 and 12 ounce Pepsi bottles. My grandmother was a bit upset that I took them, she said she was still planning to take them back to the store and get the 5 cent refund. They had been in the barn for 30 years!
Guauuu mis dos encantos ,hola Nicola y Simon muy buen video y qué hallazgos interesante ❤❤❤❤.Bendiciones para ustedes me entretengo y aprendo con ustedes ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have two of those bells. The larger of the two is a ringer but the other one is more corroded and has no 'pea'. Neither one has any decoration. I knew what they were ('Lead sheep' bells) but didn't know what they were called. But now I do! So thank you for that. 🙂
It's not an official mudlark til Si drops a find!! Some really good stuff you two found. Always so interesting and exciting to see what you pull out of the mud!!
⭐️To see the time Nicola and Si get the BIGGEST CLAY PIPE HAUL ruclips.net/video/EVlIb3KqGns/видео.htmlsi=T5lvnFxNfkRQKu7v 👍🏻🐾🧡

FDR was the President during World War II. He passed away in April of 1945 not long before the war ended.

Greg Abbott , too . He's paralyzed below the waist . An oak tree felt on him while he was jogging after a storm
Our coins hold up pretty good in the elements, except for those new Pennys that thin copper coated zincs.

@24:43 wonder if that Toucan had anything to do with Guinness advertising in the 60's-70's.
Great finds. The SJ on the ring could stand for Society of Jesus which I think could be the Jusuit order of Catholic Priests. The pearl ring is beautiful.

One dime is 10 cents equals 10 pennies. Longest serving President in United States history. A little history for you both. Great video. Joyce❤️🙏🇺🇸
Looked like the profile of Lyndon Johnson if the date was 1969. 1989 would be Reagan or HW Bush. Great video again thanks.
Amazing to see the Welsh Harp in that state! Having lived near there for over 30 years, id always seen it full! Amazing!!
Wow that croatal bell all that time is in excellent condition. Wow wow wow. I love when you and Nicola team up. Can't wait to see more.
Hey Si, just a guess but I think the halved coin you found might be a small cabinet hinge decoration. Probably homemade. It would explain the holes in the back of it too. The other half could have been on the other side of the split so when you pulled the drawer or cabinet open it gave the illusion of being split while when it was shut it may have helped hide the presence of a cabinet. I only suggest this because my parents over here have restored a lot of antique furniture and I’ve seen stuff like that before. But we also live in the states and not the UK so it could be different in regard to the furniture over there. Anyway, just a thought.
OMG! I loved all of this! I'd forgotten how huge our coins used to be, for a shilling (one bob) I could buy (in 1965 ) a portion of chips, a Milky Way and the Beano . . . sounds like a good night in! My fave was the crotal bell, it made me well-up, so old and so English . . . fab. . u . . lous! Thank you so much.

EEEk!! I feel your pain Nelly, as I've been to the dentist too this week! Darling fur bubbas. And cracking finds from you both but my favorite is the Crotal bell, which were also used on horse-drawn vehicles. LOVE it Thank you both! xx Teresa ❤🇦🇺

Just the greatest X 2 🙂♥️

Fun video, Si. Nicole smashed it with that whopper gold ring.

A drained reservoir is a great opportunity, glad you were able detect there! 😻
Cheers M👍🏻🐾🧡
What a awesome day for the both of you
Cheers Trina👍🏻🐾🧡
It would be neat if you designed a signet ring in the style of the SJ ring you found (obviously different second initial) to “sign” all your work with! What a fun day, Simon!
I’m Sammy Jaggs and would buy that SJ ring
That reservoir really delivers on finds ! Best wishes from Montana !
Enjoyed this video Si. What a day for great finds.

Great haul Si! 💍🤩 Nels & Dais love 'em!! 😍😘😻
I thought you’d found the handle of Mary Poppins umbrella!
Thanks for the video.
Great to see a Pepsi bottle from the 1950's. I still have a small collection I saved from my grandmother's barn in Colorado back in the 1980s. One each of 6, 8, 10 and 12 ounce Pepsi bottles. My grandmother was a bit upset that I took them, she said she was still planning to take them back to the store and get the 5 cent refund. They had been in the barn for 30 years!

I am! My fav too!👍🏻🐾🧡
Awesome findings enjoy
It's not an official mudlark til Si drops a find!! Some really good stuff you two found. Always so interesting and exciting to see what you pull out of the mud!!
Haha very true Michelle 😂
Great finds. Bell is my favorite. You have a pretty kitty & a handsome one.
Cheers Denise👍🏻🐾🧡
