Ha! Thanks Graham!
Hi Alexander. What a start to the year. At this rate you will need to take a camping chair with you, so that you can take a rest after your breathless excitement.
😁🙏
What amazing finds! Coins from so many different periods and the head looks pretty ancient to me! Very spooky too!
It is a bit spooky Belinda!!!!! Hope all well
Edward the confessor was a saint?.?Saint of difficult marriages etc..WOW! Nice coin but I don't need his help just celebrated 40 years with my husband. Fab vid like always,jealous of your finds,but love the show. Cheers from loyal fan from Florida
40 years ...!!!! Well done Michele. to both of you!!! Hope all well and congratulations! 😁
Fantastic. Your enthusiasm and knowledge is wonderful, made me smile all through this video. Don't stop.
That was very nice to read thanks Andrew! Hope al well!
Great finds?Alexander. Can't wait till you go back in that last bit of field. Your mate Al. ✌️👍🇦🇺🦘🇦🇺
Wotcha Allan! Hope all well and nice to hear from you!
Lovely to see you spurred on and roaming in fields again. Jolly good video
Very Kind of you to say so and hope all well!
Busy painting!
Hello Alex, long time no comment. I'm sorry, I have had a lot of life changes going on but hopefully I will get my viewing schedule back now. Wonderful, amazing finds! I think that head did look like something Roman too by the hair, beard and round eyes. Congratulations on all of these pieces, they are incredible.
Hi Tucker hope all well and nice to hear from you! Hope all ok
Thanks Alex, Yes I am always up for a video on coin cleaning. Love to see how you use the brass thingy.👍
Will do then OP ! And nice to hear from you!
I agree Alexander what an exceptional hunt. Great variety of amazing finds. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Al,NJ, USA.
Not at all Al and nice to hear from you! Hope all well over there! 🙏😁
Wonderful finds Alex ! soon the better weather will be here 😉🇨🇦
Hope so Stev its been a bit mad here... far more storms than usual but dont need to tell you what thats like! Hope all well!
Hi Alexander, "yes" to the cleaning vid.
Very good Steve! 🙏😁
Honestly, Alexander, cleaning finds is the area where I am most timid. I know you like composite pens but they scare the bejesus out of me. So a cleaning video would be fab. @@HolzHammerSagas
Love finding saxon ,well done ,what an amazing day
Thanks SD! Hope all well
Always a pleasure to watch your lovely videos. You are on such good land and the soil looks good too. I was out yesterday and my holes were filling with water and needed bailing! Finds covered in thick clay and difficult to identify in the field. Anyhow found Vic. silver 6d and copper alloy sword sheath chape at 14” depth using CTX 3030. Keeeeeeep finding…cheers.
Good stuff Warren sounds like it was worth braving the wet conditions!
Seeing your results makes me sure Getting a Deus ll with ws6 master in a couple of months is the right idea, been detecting on and off since the 70's, and will always love the hobby.
Good stuff Peter I look forward to hearing how you get on with it! 😁
You certainly won't regret it , I bought one a year ago after 20 years using a minelab explorer . Issues with tennis elbow made me buy the Deus 2 and I wish changed earlier . Just switch on and go.
@@steveowens7006 That's one of the main reasons, my elbow joint is knackered so lighter the better
A wonderful video as usual Alex 👍. Thanks for taking us along on your hunts and sharing in all the amazing finds. Slainte 🥃
Thanks Jim , not at all and thanks for watching! Nice to hear from you!
What fantastic finds again Alexander my favourite was the spur thing nice one well done you…. From Claire 🐻
The spur thing was very cool - hope all well Claire!
So many great finds!!!
Cheers Kevin! Hope all well!
Nice finds again.. your anthropomorphic head that you found is deffo Roman. Off the top of my head I think it’s probably lock related. Well done keep it up…
Thats good knowledge Alan thank you - I will look into it!
Great show today my friend! The wife and I have been down sick as dogs for a few weeks, just now gtting some sunlight from our crypt of death! Love the little face, he's quite the find!!! Anyway, happy thoughts from the great sodden metropolis of Los Angeles!!! I'd bet last week we had more rain than all of Scotland and Wales combines! Cheerio and see you next week, my friend! :-)
Dennis glas to hear you are on the mend poor you two! Hope all well now!
Interesting vblog. There are plenty of nice finds.
You have some great land. Makes you wonder why so many hammered coins, etc, are found on it 🤔
Thanks Sooty
Lots of neat coins!!
The head was very interesting.....it looks very similar to those other Roman ones you showed on the screen.
Very fun outing!!
Looking forward to getting out myself soon!!
Holler back and looking forward to the next!!
When did you last get out Tim? Hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas I haven't been out in a few weeks. The weather is terrible currently.
Fabulous coin. Great history saved. Best wishes.
Thanks DD!
Great finds once again Alexander👍👍
Thanks Graham! and nice to hear from you - hope all well!
Another fantastic watch Alex 👍
Thanks James!!!!
You know I always love watching. Thanks so much for the videos. I know it takes a lot of work and effort.
Not at all terry thankjs for watching and nice to hear from you! All the Best!
Put the encrusted Roman coin in a container of olive oil and put on a radiator for a couple weeks or so ... works well to loosen the crusting then the toothpick works a lot better it also brings up the detail nicely !
Thanks Paul; I am not very keen on olive oil on old coins but still a good tip! All the Best, Alexander
Thanks Alex I enjoy your videos very much, reminds me of my 15 years of detecting and the thrill of the find. I stopped detecting a few years ago and get my fix now by buying a selling hammered coins online. My best ever find was a beautiful bronze age palstave axe what a signal that gave ! and best coin a roman civil war denarius pretty rare one that. George iii gold half Guinea prob my second favourite coin find...
Crikey Paul you did alright!!! 😁Any advice on selling hammered coins online much appreciated as I am about to try and have a go with ebay for a few things@@paulcowburn9954
Wonderful coin Alex, congratulations,hope you are keeping well
All good here Mark - hope with you too!
Wow what a find well done 🙃
Thanks Rodney! 🙏😁 Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
I can't imagine having finds of such age in your back yard! Here in mid-America you're lucky to find a 1860s coin. Those william and Mary gold coins. Wow
The William and Mary really ius a bit special Don... and nice to hear from you! Hope all well!
Superb video Alexander.
I found a William and Mary 1693 copper coin in excellent condition a couple of years ago.
Did you? Well done Gary i don't think they are that common....
More fantastic stuff Alexander, what wonderful fields you have 👍
Thanks Graham - hope all well with you!
I don't recall seeing anyone pull out that part of spurs. Never knew they existed, but did wonder how they kept them on. That Edward coin is really cool.
Hope my "spur guide" helped Cyndye! And Hope all well!
It did!! I have always wondered how they kept them on. Now I know!
Beautiful Saxon coin Alex the days get better with more roman coins and the little face looks Roman to me.
I hope it is Len it does feel like it... Hope all well!
Fantastic , very well done Alex! Up there with my favourite things to find are Sceats. The gilding thing sets me off too. I often comment on people’s videos about that but they obviously don’t read the comments. I’ve explained the term ‘silver gilt’ and the Denarii vs Denarius over and over too🙄
Ha! Have you Mick? 😁😂 Its like banging your head against the wall isnt it??!! 😁
@@HolzHammerSagas yes it is but it niggles me.🙄
Hi Alex. Il found my first english penny, here in France. Il am so happy. It is a Edward I penny Canterbury mint
How amazing Carnute - well done!!!!!! I haven't found any french coins that early here!!! Hope all well!
I am jealous of your gold french coin. btw I am hervé, long time sub of yours, just changed pseudo@@HolzHammerSagas
Great video Alexander
Thanks Gary! Hope all well and sorry not get back sooner!
Well done on your finds. Would love to find a saxon coin 👍
I'm sure you will one day Colin!
thanks for sharing and dragging us along! just found a 1865 half dime about an hour ago and i am happy happy. i might have a stroke finding your treasures. take care
Good work BC the dime sounds cool! 👍 Hope all well!
I believe if I had found my holy grail item I'd have to set my sights on a new holy grail. I can't quit detecting, I enjoy identifying and discovering the history of my found items as you do so well with your finds. Thank you for another enjoyable outing, it's always a pleasure to spend time with you.
Not at all Blacksand thanks for coming along! What is your Holy Grail item?!
A fine producing field to detect this day. Roman coins, and other ancient artifacts from the past. Always enjoy your videos, Alex! Something for me to look forward to. See you on the next. Cheers Alex! 🇬🇧👍🙂🇺🇸
Thanks Matin and thanks for the kind words! 🙏 Hope all well!
Morning Alexander. What a session! So glad you said it... it's simply 'gilded' guys👍🥳
Ha! Thanks Donna - glad you are onside! And hope all well!
100% on your side. It's become an epidemic!🤦♀️🤣
You're great!!!
Ha! Thanks Gabriele! Hope all well! 😁🙏
Yess!!
Great video, some nice finds again. It’s a shame you ran out of time, it’ll be good to see what comes up the next time you visit. Great idea about making a video of you cleaning the coin, I’ll definitely watch it.
Thanks for keeping us entertained every week 👍
Not at all Darren and hope all good with you!
Another great little film Alex,thanks for sharing with us 😊
Not at all Andy thanks for watching!
Lovely finds there Alex, you really have some great permissions and find so many great things, i struggle to find anything most of the time up here in Rhe Highlands of Scotland apart from my very first amazing silver James VI 1/4 Merk a week or ao ago which was amazing. Great videos and i know how long these take to record and edit and some6i know i just want to get on and detect so hats off to you putting thrm together 👍🏻 all the best Ryan.
Thanks Ryan and thanks for watching - You do put some effort in too I have seen some of your videos - well done! Keep in mind though that the most successful Metal Detecting channels seem to be those who look like they put the least effort in to the edit, so its not all about that though it seems to take me longer and longer to edit the better I get at it; I think i just continuously want to do better and better stuff! All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas @HolzHammerSagas Hi Alexander, you are absolutely correct about some channels not necessarily detecting channels but certain genres of channels seem to get a lot of followers even though they really do not put much effort in to actually filming and editing, which really baffles me, it's very strange 🤔 I watch a couple of really great channels The Dukes of Derbyshire and Only Me Again Metal Detecting I really enjoy watching those along with yours as you can see how much effort goes into putting it all together, I really enjoy watching your videos and going back to HQ for a wee chat it's really great and really interesting to watch as it is all about learning history too, I'm a tour guide up in Inverness so I love the history part of detecting and going off to research what I found if I'm not sure what it may be. Many thanks Alexander for replying I know replying takes a lot of time also and keeping on top of comments to interact as much as possible. All the best. Ryan.
Great vid as always.
Cheers Mick - much appreciated!
excelent finds! LIKE
Thanks Lancelot thats much appreciated! All the Best, Alexander
Oh, I dont know around 300 something.😱
Lovely finds there, Alex. The spur find and your explanation of how it all went together was very interesting, now I'll have a much better idea if I find a piece. You really do find some wonderful stuff! Well done you, and hugs to Tasci🐕
Thanks Chops - its all part of the fun isnt it - finding out about stuff!!! Hope all well with you and All the Best!
Hi Alex..well done on finding a stunning Saxon penny,amazing condition. plus some nice Roman coins as well...Cheers Kev..👍
Hey Kev - hope all well! Nothing beats a nice Saxon! Anyway nice to hear from you!
We're spoilt this week with a longer episode 🙂 and it was just as spectacular as usual. Great finds Alexander, all the best for your next detecting adventure 👍🙂
Thanks Arthur I hope it wasn't too long - I do my best to edit out all the really boring bits!!! Hope all well!
@HolzHammerSagas for me the longer the better 👍
😁@@arthurgolddigger7336
You have blessed land to go on. Must be very exciting every time you turn on your Deus II. NICE FINDS AS ALWAYS good luck out there HH 👍🏼
You too SS!
Wow another fantastic session Alex - really loving those Romans, and I had to get my Spink out to look more on those Saxons... amazing stuff matey! and thanks 🙏 as ever for such great content... B 🐭
Not at all Bobby - hope all well with you!
@@HolzHammerSagas 🙏
Unbelievable as always Alexander! Love the William & Mary don’t see many.. but the Edward is special & smashed the Roman as usual❤
Ha! Thanks Mark and Hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas just packing up to go dig up some lead & buttons😊
Ha! 😁@@markjohnnojohnson5352
😮 that saxon penny is an incredible find 👏 well done Alexander brilliant video and edit as always the best on here 👏👏👏👏
Very kind of you to say so Rob and thanks as always for watching!
Hell of a video Alex!!! Absolutely loved this one! Congrats on all the wonderful treasures!!! Again a super video Sir!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Ray!!!! 😁🙏
Great video as always Alex. Superb finds. Cheers.
Thanks Nick!😁🙏
Another lovely video Alexander, we enjoy them so much! Happy hunting!! 🙏🏼
Thanks Miles and thanks for watching - its much appreciated!
You asked me what my dream coin was and I told you ‘an Edward the Confessor’ and then a few days later you find one. You really are in a pact with the devil - I now have proof! You’ve got away without have a wax effigy made of you because it isn’t an Oxford one. Seriously though that’s a beautiful coin 😍
Thanks Cath!!! You are doing ok with the saxon stuff so its just a matter of time I am sure of it! Hope all well!
Hi Alexander,
Just a thought could the face thingy be a mount for walking stick handle!!
Brilliant video great coin,keep them coming 👍
It could well be Michael, thats a good call.... Not Roman then! 😁 Hope all well!
Wonderful watch young man. Stoked me up for our club dig tomorrow 😁👍
Good luck!
Cracking saxon coin...! Wonderful find that. I'm with you...I think the copper head is roman too....just seems a typically roman thing to do to inset the eyes with glass......later on in history they wouldn't have gone to the effort of doing that I don't think! Brilliant video....cheers Alexander!
Thanks John and that's a good point re the "Roman" head... hope all well and thanks for watching!
The old fellow with the glass eye definitely looks Roman to me.
Welll I think so too until Im told he's not! Hope all well!
Good show ; a bit of everything indeed , I'm quite on the edge of my seat with full attention lol !!! A man never knows the gold could always pop out at any moment . The area your in I think it is quite possible you'll eventually get your Roman gold.
My God I hope so Joseph I do keep in mind its posssible ... you want to be hopeful though not expectant don't you?! Expect the Unexpected....! 😁
Great finds as always Alexander. I don´t know how you do it, but you always have such interesting finds. Here in Spain I´d expected a lot of Roman but I think in the UK you find far more of that time period. I just did some research and the population of the UK was in those times a lot denser than here in Spain, what might be an explanation. This weekend I had my first gold (half)coin, a 1590 ducat, so can´t really complain. Keep enjoying the hobby I know how addictive it is.
Are you allowed to keep that Corne? I hope so!
@@HolzHammerSagas It will go to the equivalent of your FLO.
A great video 👍with some lovely finds again 😮the Deus seems to be doing really well for you 👍good luck 🍀
Pete
The new deus is doing ok Peter.... Hope all well!
Enjoyed as always-great finds. Look foward to your next video.
Thanks Douglas! Hoper all well! 🙏
Hi Alex. I would like to see a cleaning video please. Gray.
Will do then Grahame!
👏🏻❤ amazing finds, well done 😊x
Hi Michelle and thanks very much! 😁
I agree, that Saxon coin looks lovely as it is. I've been told that I found an Edward the Confessor. I will double check and compare it to yours. Excellent day for you well done video Alex.
Good stuff Chuck let me know if it is I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you...
Excellent content as always.
Cheers Rcip! 😁🙏
great saxon coin id loved to have found it well done
Thanks Patrick I bet you do its just a matter of time!
Love the spur very "I'am groot!" LOL you like your marvel movies 🎬 don't you?
You have some fantastic finds there I really hope I have some luck with just the occasional coin I'd be happy with 1800s infact even early 1900s I'd be grateful for anything to be honest, do you enjoy all the exercise cuz it looks like hard graft sometimes especially digging cartridges etc
It can be Robbie but its only the digging of deep stuff that can be a bit exhausting... as you know, pottering round at a snail's pace doesn't really get the heart going!
True , what about excavation? Have you ever seen a location where possible roman settlement could be properly dug?
I did a bit of a video on that a few months ago Robbie its got excavtion in the title...@@robbieallan6522
Brilliant finds again Alexander! I'm sure that little hollow head is Roman. Just noticed you've gone over 7K Subs. Really well done. All the best, John.
Thanks John - I really think it might be Roman.... Hope all well and nice to hear from you!
You can flatten that Penny by placing it between books. You can increase the force until you start to see flattening. When flattening stops, you can carefully add another book directly on top and so on. I conserve ancient coins and for me leaving it in its current shape does no justice to the artistry of the mint master who produced a flat product. I would also love to see you do a special showing your best finds. Please include dog
Ha! Will do Leonard and thanks for the straightening tips I will give it a go.. All the Best, Alexander
Excellent Edward Saxon, I prefer the patina also ..Super W/M . I for one would like to see the cleaning process please 👍Great day . Super as always Alexander. Thank you. Phil
Thank you phil amd good to hear from you!!! Hope all well
Nice one Alexander 👍@@HolzHammerSagas
Thanks Phil!@@Flint-I
I’m no expert but based on my memory of Greco-Roman art class, that figure’s beard seems very similar
Well I think so too Rex! Hope all well and nice to hear from you!
Great video again mate I’ve got the manticore great machine but to mea bit heavy might have to go to a deus two mate u have some mega land ❤️❤️
Thanks Gareth, the manticore looks like a good machine....
@@HolzHammerSagas yeah it is mate just a bit on the heavy side to me mate
When you were looking at the roman face there was a little thing on your desk with 3 holes with a little cartouche. What is that ? As I have one. Seem to be a few confessor coins coming up lately. I had one a few months back but it was a facing bust. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing ✌️
Well done on your coin Tony - I am not sure about the cartouche thing i will look into it! Hope all well!
Looking at it now I think it's from a rosary thing.
Thanks ✌️
Would love to see a video of you cleaning .... I have a composite cleaning pencil..... A bit too scared of damaging the coins ...... What is your other channel called ?
its called HolzHammer LITE! SS Go carefully when it comes to cleaning coins and practice on Rubbishy ones!
Lovely Saxon penny! I take it you sent Dr Martin Allen an email? I've found three Edward the Confessor and two Ethelred the Unready coins in a faiirly small area on my permission... hoping that I'm homing in on a hoard!
that would be nice Stefan - I am looking forward to hearing of it happening!
What's the other channel? You should link it in your videos. Hopefully I didn't miss it
i should Kevin and will do - its called HolzHammer LITE!
Great stuff again Alexander. Keep them coming. What camera do you use, as I am thinking of starting filming my detecting. Thank you.
They are all listed in the descripyion of the video Steve - good luck!
Never say never Alexander. With the volume of Roman stuff you find I believe it's only a matter of time. I mean you find Celtic ect. I still believe roman soldiers buried spoils meaning to return only to die in another battle. Cracking hunt and coins.
"Expect the Unexpected" Don!!!!! Hope all well and nice to hear from you!
Lucky man you are I need a invite ☺️
😂 We'd all love an invite on to that land, 👍
😁
Hello Alex, what great finds and enjoyed your explanation again! I would like to see a video of a cleaning session! What is the name of the other channel and what is the name of the tool brand?
The tool is the Composite cleaning pencil and the channel is HolzHammer LITE! Hope all well Benny and All the Best!
As expected Alex, a very interesting and informative video. I hope that certain find 'spurs' you on to greater things. (Sorry) Glad to see your subs are going up, much too slowly in my opinion. All the best.
Thanks Victor! Hope all well with you!
Hi Alexander, what’s the composite cleaning pencil you use? Thanks. Ps loving the videos.
Its called the composite cleaning pencil Nick you can google it - it comes with all sorts of inserts _ I will do a video on it soon! 👍
Hi great video once again I’m getting the deus 2 next week would you be so kind in doing a video on your settings what you use please
I am not experienced enough with it Leigh to do a video. stick with simple factory presets to start off... did you use a deus 1?
Thanks for the reply no I use a equinox. What program do you recommend for starting off with on the deus for hammered coins
Is there any any structure on any of the land you detect that you could actually do excavation and see If you could find roman or some other homestead foundations?? I've always wanted to go on a dig, time team found the oldest known writing in the UK about 10 miles away from where I live on the isle of man that's why I'm keen to detect rich history over here.
Are you allowed to detect on the isle of Man Robbie?
Some places are national heritage so not allowed but alot of private land is OK aslong as ask permission first.
Love your vlog. Have you got any military buttons for sale? Dix
I dont Dix but i will keep you in mind when I next find one and send it you!
I’m Pleased to say….. I have my first permission today 🎉 and on good authority there was a settlement on the field
Brilliant - well done - I look forward to hearing how you get on!
Brilliant - well done - I look forward to hearing how you get on!
Looking at the Saxon coins in your book, they already had the voided short and long crosses. So could one say the whole theory of the later Kings using voided crosses to make it easier to cut and the long crosses to prevent people from clipping them is nonsense? They just copied the design of the earlier Saxon kings. The cutting on the cross did make it easier…
I think that's right DD.... thanks for that and hope all well!
Not sure if you’d know this but my headphones for my minelab equinox 800 have suddenly stopped working, they’re the stock versions, they stopped working since I tried turning them on at a dig, I have been to the foreshore and club digs many times without incident
Sorry to hear that Alprini I hope you get it sorted.
There’s a chance they’re under guarantee or warranty so hope , I can still do it without them but that’s not the pointso@@HolzHammerSagas
Further to last, welcome to the “ old fuc**rs I can’t see “ club. God, isn’t it frustrating. I can see it (just) but I can’t see it. Roll on magnification. Jeez, sod getting old 😂😂
Ha! Thanks Adrian and nice to hear from you! I really should get proper glasses I am staving it off! 😁
9:23 please dont do that with spade after ground is up.. You can easly destroy your finds..
Maybe we should start up the Anti "gold gilded", "denari" & "broach" Society? Drives me up the wall, too!🤣
What do we do with the culprits John??!!
@@HolzHammerSagas Nothing nice 🤣
another great vid of finds ime on the detecting hub but dont know how to send pics to get the id can you help please thanks
Malcolm there should be a section on the website which will explain it far better than I could - good luck!
