I love how you give little bit of History from your country about the coins lot of the coins we don't see here in America but I really enjoy learning about the history
Thanks Eric. Much appreciated and have an incredible 2023 and new year
Greetings from Canada 🍁 Dam great video buddy! I am strictly a relic hunter for artifacts of the Fur trader 1650 -1840 time period . I would have a heart attack finding your artifacts 😂 big congrats
Much appreciated. See you on the next one and happy hunting! 🇨🇦 🏴
Considering the country of residence, your fortunate to have such a broad date range. For example I live on Vancouver Island in British Columbia where oneself would be considered lucky just to find a relic which dates from before the 1870s.
Hi John! What a brilliant day's hunt! I thought I knew all most all my kings and queens, but never knew Anne was on the throne or that Sofia got struck by lightning! Could've been us here in Valencia yesterday, with the floods we had and the constant thunderstorm that lasted over 36 hours! (Been here 22 years n never, ever seen the like!) Anyway, thanks again for another brilliant history lesson, from Pete's owl, to your amazing Florins! See you on the next ! Much love to you n all the gang from Chez in Lliria Valencia Spain 😘😘
Ps that bit of bronze you found had the look of a big cat, Tiger maybe, I hope you looked again, maybe I'm suffering from a bit of paradolia 😂 Im an Artist, so see Faces everywhere 😂😂😂 😘😘😘
Thanks for the kind words and I’m glad you enjoyed. Good to hear you survived the floods and lightning ⚡️ too!!
Hoping to get back on the hunt again today in search of more treasures!!
That was brilliant I love the way he foiled you "pardon the pun" with the nice bottle top first😂
That’s why we call him sneaky Pete!! 😂
I have done some research on your owl . And I believe it to be much older than you believe. Let me check even further in the history of relics and I will post again if I find anything good about the owl .I think it’s the best find he has ever made.
Not only do we get to see yours finds but a history lesson also. Great knowledge 👍
Much appreciated and I’m glad you enjoy. Have a great New Year
That owl is actually a Roman Butt Plug, mainly used by the Spartan soldiers whilst riding their chariots for obvious reasons, during the reign of Constantine 👍🏻 great find amongst all the other finds you got on this dig. Congrats 👍🏻👍🏻 great videos, really enjoying watching them all, new to the channel myself so watched the last 8 so far all the way through 👍🏻
Thanks Ryan. A Spartan but plug 🔌 unbelievable
@@thescottishdetectorist I know who'd thought eh mate! 🔌😂😂 I feel like building myself a chariot now 👍🏻😂 All joking apart, really enjoying the videos, watched a rake of them over the last few days, some absolutely amazing finds. Being a tour guide up in Inverness it's really interesting hearing some history behind a few of the items 👍🏻 I've actually just bought myself a detector, my first one since I was a child when my grandad used to take us out, really looking forward to receiving it some time this week, I'm hoping to find some nice things that I can show my tourists on my vehicle when I do my tours. 👍🏻
Amazing vids as usual your so knowledgable thank you
Thanks for the kind words Paul. Glad you enjoyed!
Splendid days work gentlemen!
Thanks Greg
Huge fan of William Wyon's work with the Gothic Florin. One of the most beautiful coins of all time. The date is roman numerals ... mdccclxxxiii on that one... 1883.
Thanks for the info Andy!! Much appreciated
Wow amazing finds for all! Beautiful coins! I can’t believe sneaky Pete found an ingot just like yours! His bronzed owl makes me think of the Roman goddess Minerva’s symbol! Truly amazing 🤩
Thanks Jennifer. Yes Petes on fire these days and I’m very jealous of his owl 🦉 I think it’s an incredible find!!
You are the real beauty here. :) Ok enough flirting. Great finds Guys :) Just figured I'd kill two birds with one stone. :) LOL ;) Have a great day everyone :).
Hey I just watched this… and I was at Detectival as well and I found the exact same owl !!!!! I have pictures
Just love this channel,you learn something every time, well researched and always a good watch, thank you
Many thanks Keith. Glad you’re enjoying
Great finds guys! Just my opinion but the owl may be part of a portable roman shrine or celtic pocket talisman~ wise decisions, business endeavors. And the lead looks like something used to secure medieval window like a church. Anywho~ very nice!
Thanks for the info Daniel!! You might well be right about the shrine!! Amazing find I’m very jealous of Pete 🦉
Y'all did excellent fellas. When you had the three Georgian coins the one you couldn't identify looks like the head was looking left. I'm amazed with the ingot. Great job guys. Enjoyed seeing all your finds and I'd be back as soon as i could 😆. See you guys on the next and thanks for the video's you do John. Congrats on your success
Incredible finds my friend, some beautiful big silvers towards the end and an amazing silver ingot also! Love the bag seals to, very nice. Awesome video, thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks Paddy. Glad you like. It was a bumper day, all that rain helped I think!!
Another great video as always John some amazing finds 👏🏻 well done 👏🏻
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed!
The Gothic florin was the most beautiful coin ever produced for mass circulation. The date is in Roman numerals on the obverse.
I'm a coin collector & love them. It was also the first attempt to introduce decimalization of our currency. It also known as the godless florin.
Thanks me Tony. Didn’t know that!!
Standard gothic florins were slightly larger than normal florins. "Godless florins" are sliightly smaller than normal florins in diameter and have the "D.G" missing - hence godless. Also the godless florins have the date in standard numbers rather than roman numerals.
EPIC hunt, gentlemen! Lovely!
Many thanks Scott
hilllarious that you mention sifinds and nicola white ,, i love detectorist videos ,,,, happy new year from california
Many thanks!! Wait until you see the newest video 🤩
Whoa! You will never have another day like that! I saw someone dig their first Ann the other day. All that amazing silver. I do love the owl. The Gothic Florin is my favorite coin. It was a hour long, but so action packed with finds after finds. Oh and I got about 3 garnets from Simon. They are my birthstone. I took them and a couple of rings I had laying around and had a jeweler make a ring and pendant from them. They are beautiful.
Many thanks. I was tempted to split the video into two, but I thought it was so action packed it deserved to be kept as one video! Long as it was!
That Anne coin though, what an amazing find. How few of them were ever made, and you found one.
It’s a beauty isn’t it!
Your channel is both a treasure hunt and a history lesson. Please keep them coming.
Damm great bottle top
It’s a cracker ain’t it
Fantastic finds 😮
What a great episode! Congratulations on the amazing coin finds. I have been listening to your posts all day as I did some leaf clearing here in Michigan. It passed the time very agreeably. I'm a coin buff from flea markets as a kid. Watching your posts hits the same spot and makes me happy. You're my favorite CZcamsr! (By the way, please do more lives!)
Thanks for the kind words Scott. Much appreciated and see you on the next dig… and maybe live too!!
Viking hoards have been known to contain marked ingots too. Amazing finds as per. 👏👏
Many thanks. Never had any Viking stuff for sure but it would be great if they were
Your a very knowledgeable detectorist , I find it very interesting to listen to your knowledge, thank you x
Great content! Imagine having a "photograph" of what that region looked like--particularly the super old items?
What a day ! Cracking finds 👌
It was a beauty. Long video but I thought it was worth posting as one
@@thescottishdetectorist the ingot was so cool , I thought I had 1 the other day but it was a rolled up piece of stainless 😂 .. and your history lessons are unreal 👌
Lead Ingots for making bullets. While battles lasted for days,the reason for the shape is its easier to cut and melts quickly
Many thanks great info!
Great video, especially for us beginners, and background history to boot! Well done on the recent finds too, your channel has boomed! ATB from Shropshire 👍
The lead stylus thingy may have been used by plumbers/lead workers for soldering lead joints 👍 lovely informative and entertaining video, perfectly paced narrative, thank you. Steve.
Many thanks for the info Steve
The dirt sharks on their way. Next full moon.
Many thanks and happy new year
Wow wow wow what a good day once again great finds best day so far for 2022👍
Many thanks Eva
Great finds boys
Awsome finds there guys, Alberts crown of Queen Anne it’s a valuable coin, tell him to give it a clean in Lemon juice for a few hours. and a gentle clean it will come up a cracker. But be careful with it don’t leave it in too long.that’s a rare one Awsome finds and that silver ingot is Definitely Roman 100%HH👍😊
Thanks Craig. It was Pete that got the Anne Crown though… Albert got the iron and lead 😂 how times change, that used to be Pete’s job then he got the XP DEUS II 😂
Well done guys, all the best and thanks for another fantastic video, 👍 👏, regards Kelvin
Thanks Kelvin. Glad you enjoyed
Pete's best find looks like an owl fetish.
what a korker of a video that was...some fantastic finds, i love the bronze owl...also the silver ingot.. i realy liked the whisky bottle cap...then i thought it can't get much better than that...a gothic florin..a Edward 7 florin..and the Crown of ANNE...Jeepers some fantastic silver rite there... i allways have a wee Dram when i find silver or anything great...very well hunted...ATB GL&HH Gordon.
Many thanks. It was an epic day. Finds just kept on coming. A long video but I thought it was best rolled into one as it was just such an epic day! HH 🥃
Great video.. some amazing finds. That ingot is a special find..
Well done on finding your first and second florin.. they're lovely coins.. Nice size 😀
Many thanks Daniel. Yes really happy with them
@@thescottishdetectorist You're welcome. Thanks for sharing such an amazing hunt with us 😀
Brilliant day again John. In my years of detecting I've found most reigns of Kings & Queens, but never an Anne coin. That was a lovely Anne silver
I think the square piece of lead is used for soldering, can be used to repair many holed items
Thanks for the info, that would make sense! Had a few of them
Absolutely outrageous finds my friend just a tad jealous lol 👍
It was some dig. Definitely the day of 2022
@@thescottishdetectorist i would absolutely love to find that kind of stuff here fir sure I put a couple of coins up on here and tiktok and people thought they were roman but I'm not sure if possible would you maybe gave a little look if not no worries 👍
Another great vid, I'd say those silver ingots must be part of a scattered horde 👌👌
Fingers crossed more are to be found!!
Great finds... respect from Mediterranean side
Thanks
Awesome
Glad you like thanks
Enjoying your posts John from John and Sarah :)
Hey John. Thanks!! Hopefully see you both soon!!
I'm new to your wonderful channel, and thrilled to find you! Your considerable depth of historical background on finds has already taught me so much. Thank you, I'm well and truly hooked! Cheers!
I was digging in the Holy Land quite a few years ago. I found an ancient gold ankle bracelet. Was really happy. I cleaned it up,to my surprise, it had an inscription that read " To Mary Magdalene happy birthday Jesus"
Haha 😂 very good Ted
If it's gothic victoria the date may be in Roman numerals 👍
Another great video 😊
Much appreciated. It is indeed 1950 something if I remember rightly…. 1953 I think 🤔
Its a good finds, and its a interesting spoken. I thought that I could not understand anything, but it turned out that this was not so. Greetings from Russia. And as they say in Russia - "Ни гвоздя, ни пробки"! Which it means "no nails, no caps" (there is more aluminium bottle caps from vodka we found in Russia).
Haha thanks Alex
Here in Tennessee, we find lots of stone arrowheads and such. Anything like that in those fields that you’re detecting? Great content, beautiful treasures and awesome history lessons. Blessings.
Great video, as always. The date on the Gothic Florin is in Roman numerals, to the right of the head
Thanks for the info Steve I’ll have a look
Is the standing Britania holding a head with long hair? It would be cool it one of you could smelt or knew someone who could, and make an object from all of the bronze you find. maybe a spear head of a small Britania. :) Congratulations on your Florins!
Great video ... again!!
Any idea what the markings on the silver ingot represent?
The markings on the ingots found previously are intriguing too.
I’m comparing them in the next video!! But really not sure what they mean
Looks like a little owl
2 florins in a row!!? Hoorah for deepploving
Possiblelity for that almost 0
Predicted it was time for a silver ingot!
Seen to many Videos from your channel
😱😜 Never been to Scotland promised
😜🔝❤️
Thanks Toni. These permissions astound me and I think I’ve got an amazing permission coming my way which is a 1500’s Manor House with parkland grounds surrounding it … can’t wait 😜
I believe the date on the Gothic Florin is shown in Roman Numerals
The lead? seals probably from Arkhangelsk, Russia (АРХ). One says 3rd sorting, a lower quality grade? (3 сорт.) More could be dechufered but it's hard to do from a screen shot
Another ingot !
I'm moving to Scotland !
Haha 😂 yeah it’s been great hopefully more to come!
💛💛💛
The date on the Gothic florin is on the head side behind the neck and in roman numerals.
K from the land down under, could the ingot be a star map?
The owl could be a small moloch.
With Pete’s three coins, the second and third appear to have the same head, looking to the left.
Thanks Deborah. I’ll go back and have a look!
21:00 Possibly Minerva household god.
What a day
It was a beauty
23:22 Greco-Roman votive owl
The 2 lead seals are in cyrillic language. I read on the second line tsjeska which is Russian for czechia !(?)
As I have said....a) get a spray bottle for taking off the dirt. Also a quart plastic bottle to refill the spray. Also if you handle a lead find I would suggest wearing at least one glove so, in 30 years you aren't making any sense anymore. Spoken in friendship.
Luvving your vids from Perthshire, been watching them on my new smart tv! certainly inspiring me to get out and do some more detecting (I do a little now and then) and great explanations of the various items you uncover. I was curious about the Queen Anne Crown. I'm wondering if it is a contemporary forgery, it has detail but looks rather 'flat' and the edge is milled but should have lettering all the way round. Looks to have been buried for a while, what does your FLO make of it.
Thanks Alan. Having never seen one I didn’t notice to be honest. Thanks for the info. It doesn’t qualify as ‘treasure’ in Scotland but I’ll need to get Pete to have a closer look at it
We’ve had quite a lot of fake coins from the 1700 and 1800’s off these fields… seems to have been a cottage industry in these parts!!
@@thescottishdetectorist I hope it turns out to be a real one and not an 18th century 'Perthshire cottage industry special' :). By the way, some Queen Anne Crowns were minted in Edinburgh and have an E below the bust! Keep up the searching, I'm sure the minus 8 winds wont put you off!
Try deus 1 on deep program 14kHz hf round white , against deus 11 any program , be good to see video on same targets , deus 1 will punch deeper ,
The owl looks to be very old, pictish maybe? Pagan?
I think it’s early. The archaeologists thought Iron Age or early Celtic
Hello, The Victorian Florin has the date written in Latin on the side with the queens head.
Much appreciated
@@thescottishdetectorist You’re welcome and I believe it may be from 1883 and should say:
MDCCCLXXXIII
well done pete beer token on you
Amen 🙏
Do you ever do beaches too mate?
Rarely. But when I have I got some good success!
The item he found is owl 🦉
There seems to be an owlet on the lower right of the owl.
How many coins have you had to turn in because of their age or rarity?
Everything over 300yrs old needs to be reported but most things are returned. They only tend to keep the very best of things
Is the lead square thingy not an ingot for casting musket balls.
Some are suggesting solder but it could well be an Ingot too
📽️👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Janis
I would say that the owl my be older then Roman would be more detailed
Do I win anything for being the first to give you a thumbs up ? ;-)
Gold star ⭐️ for you! 😆
Do you get to keep the silver ingots?
Hi Sheila. Anything over 300yrs old or suspected of being over 300yrs old found in Scotland needs to be reported.
But I don’t sell anything I find and have a nice little museum at home 😉
@@thescottishdetectorist That would be cool to see
I wish you'd stop rubbing your silver coin finds! Sheesh! I cringed and even swore at my tv.
I love the Edward florin! Beautiful coin.
Live digs make me want to puke there so wobbly 😢
👍
What are the rules re found treasures?Do you have to share value with farm owners or do you keep for your own collection. 🪙⚔️🪦🇦🇺🐨
