Fancy joining us for another adventure?? We recently visited Roman Bath: czcams.com/video/vAuJsd0HYWE/video.html
Not just metal detecting but a history lesson.Thank you ladies.
Cheers Peter! We really enjoy sharing the history behind the finds, gives them a bit more context 💪🤎
The hairpin was amazing!
Such a highlight finding one! gave us goosebumps! 🤎
Hi Lucie and Ellie! This field was INCREDIBLE! The woman's hair pin is stunning. I was so intrigued I Googled Roman hair styles and am so glad we don't wear those sharp pokie pins in our hair today. 💛 PS I'm not getting your notifications even though I have the bell on. Boo, YT. 😆
That pin is beautiful! I love the more personal artefacts ❤
Completely agree! The personal artefacts are really special, this one gave me goosebumps! ✨
Morning girls. Another superb lesson in how to detect👍 Great potential for this field, as the old saying goes... low and slow; some of those Roman's can be deep and tricksy. Tip for your crusty silver. You'll need real lemon juice and 2 iron nails. Sit the coin between the nails and immerse in the juice. Check every 15mins to half an hour to see if you can pick any of the crust off with a toothpick. Once done, submerge in diluted bicarbonate of soda to neutralise. Then rinse and lightly rub in vaseline to remove any deposits. Be amazed. Works on even the most crusty coins with no ill effects👍
So much interesting history in that field. Some lovely finds in short order as well. Too bad the rain moved in, but it is definitely a site worthy of more exploration. Looking forward to future videos. Thanks, ladies!
Wow, you found some wonderful coins and artifacts on this outing! The Diocletian coin is spectacular. You're unveiling such a profound depth of history. Best of luck for the next hunt!
Hi ladies, love the hairpin and the first coin was great, shame the weather turned, the sunshine is on its way
I had this really funny moment with the hairpin when I was filming it all cleaned up for the CZcams video. My hair kept getting in my face and this little object I’m trying to film would have solved my problems in Roman times 😂 Made it feel very relatable!!
So glad the good weather has arrived!!! 🙌
I love this channel! It’s so cute and cozy listening to you both. I love all the creators I’ve come across on Archeology/ Anthropology CZcams (Milo Rossi being the GOAT), but it’s really refreshing seeing other women in the space as well ✨
Cozy digging! 🥹 Really appreciate the kind words and support! So many brilliant channels in this space! 🤎✨
Love your chill and calm video... Our new video is all about our Roman luck :9 Cheers!!!!!
That brooch though , honestly if I found something like that I would be overjoyed ! Thank you for sharing .
So exciting to find a new brooch style we haven’t found before!! We were so pleased with that one! 🤓✨
Another banger in the field, Lucie and Ellie! Loved the Diocletian coin and your history of the emperor - for a rain delay day, you sure had some awesome discoveries 😊
Thanks Amanda! We sure made the most of our limited time in the field this dig! So pleased with our array of finds 😍🙌
Excellent finds!Today,now its gold time,well hope so,anyway,much luck ladies!
Thanks James!! Don’t tease us with tales of gold 😆🤞✨
Whoah,that’s amazing.
You estimated a 4 hour window before the clouds open up,and you found all of that!!!
Even the little fossil was groovy.
Guard this location with your lives.
Well,at least,until I arrive back in the UK in September 2025🤣🤣🤣
Congratulations!
Eat lunch and roll out! At least it was a productive session 😂 We’ll be back down there when we can but it’s officially pasture season now!! 😅🤎
I have exiting news!!!
I just secured my very first field permission!!
Stone adze heads were found by the landowner.
One field,I have to wait until autumn,after the crop is harvested,but in late June,I’m hitting another field,it is in plowed for many years,but it’s the field where the adzes and a 19th century axe was found.
The field for June is,I’m told,very rocky.
This is not ideal I suspect.
Am I correct?
Stay on the Roman!!!! 😁😁😁 great stuff y'all!!!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯
Roman all day any day!!! 😂🙌🤎
Loved it girls, and great to get all the extra historical info too... 🙏 Tnx as ever, Bobby x
Thanks Bobby! Some really interesting artefacts to research this dig!! Some new ones for us which is always exciting! 🤓🤎✨
@@RomanFound Yeah - love those pins btw... 😍
Low and slow, plenty more there with those nice bits!
Really exciting to uncover a new spot we haven’t spent much time on! Definitely more adventures to be had here 🤓🙏
so lucky the emperor's head is what remains on the bit of Roman coin. thanx!
Hahah so lucky!! It’s always fun when the fragments have good details! 😍
Love the history lessons too!
🙏🥹🤎
Well done always get inspired by your detecting prowess and knowledge keep up the good work. Are you both based in Lincolnshire. I moved up to the Lincolnshire wolds 3 years ago and the kind farmer allowed me to detect in his land which is only 50yards from my back garden. I took up detecting 2 years ago and found my first roman siliqua. Since then I have found another 16 in a similar area plus my detecting friend has found a silver denarius of Vespasian not related to my hoard site though. She’s had Bronze Age axe molds 4 Bronze Age axes and both have had Bronze Age spear tip fragments. But there’s no pottery from both eras and no building debris, so not sure on the Bronze Age objects could of been a smithy nearby and I’m guessing my hoard of silver was buried in times of conflict plus there are loads of tiny nails nearby quite iron infested. So could have been buried in a wooden box who knows and the denarius a random drop. But it does show a good few thousand years interesting activity in the area. Anyway life story over and happy hunting.
Very beautiful finds
Thank you! So pleased with what we managed to find! 😍
Awesome finds! Shame about the weather, hope you get back out there again soon. Look forward to seeing what else you find 🙂
Amazing!!!
Thank you!! We need to check if it’s been drilled now but I think more finds will come out of there on future digs 🤓🙌
@@RomanFound Absolutely! Happy hunting 🙂
I just love when you explain what that coin would've bought back in the day. You girls have so much potential in CZcams. I wish you 100 fold subscribers for every bullet you find. 😁 I have a field which produces nice celtic/saxon and roman coins, but it's like a minefield with bullets. Last time I counted 52 bullets, 16 musket balls. Either it was training ground, or there was some crazy battle there Good luck! 🍀
Ellie has a lot of fun researching those ones! Thank you that’s really kind!! Hahah the bullets seemed a bit endless at times 😂 I’m hoping we’ve cleared most of them out now! Sounds very much like our field!! 😆🤎✨
I'd have to try a bit of electrolysis on that crusty coin, I'm too impatient to do the distilled water method.
We’ve always been too nervous to try it! One day we will give it a go! 😆
Really fascinating video. I'm learning lots from you both. Can you tell me which detector you are using, the one in the programme with the orange flashing and cable? Thank you and keep up the great work!!
Thank you! We’re using the Minelab Equinox 800, it’s a wonderful machine. 🙏
@@RomanFound Thankyou for replying. I'm a history teacher, based in Stroud, Gloucestershire and have been detecting for just a year, started last May. If you are in the area, would appreciate the opportunity to meet you both. I've found a Constantine Follis last week on a new permission near a place called Cockadilly (I kid you not!!). Really chuffed as it is in really good condition. Where do you detect?
Wonderful! We upgraded our machine after about a year. 🤓 We’re based in Lincolnshire, but I do have friends from Stroud. Will let know know when next in the area! 🤎
Also congrats on your Roman Follis!! My phone keyboard was hiding that part of the message! 😆
Haven't seen you lassies in ages and was wondering where you'd got to. CZcams keeps proffering up other detectorists but I'm too curmudgeonly to be making wanton changes at my age. I like to stick with what I know.
I dont mean to flatter you: I still eat the same tomato sauce, use the same toothpaste and wear the same brand/model of sneakers that my mother bought me when I was a child.
How rude of CZcams! Have a look through the back catalog and see if you’ve missed any thing! 😮
Not a big fan of change either 😂 won’t get me swapping out my detecting machine any time soon!! 🤎
Love your detecting videos, the little snippets of information are most enlightening and I learn a little something new each time, like I didn't know about the Vine Street site in London until you two showed it.
I enjoy history and whilst I take in the serious side a lot, I do like to make a bit of fun out of it, especially the rather stoic documentary type programmes fronted by stuffy academics.
So I came up with Professor Crusty Trenches, '..a bloke who knows things!".
Don't know if I'm onto a winner yet but here is a taster of what he's been up to so far, and there is a fair bit of Roman content, some of which you might just recognise too..

Thank you so much!! Glad you’ve been enjoying the little bits of history along side our finds!
Will check it out!! Sounds like a fun take on history! Gotta have the Romans in there! 😂💪
Well done lovely girls, great interesting finds.
Thank you, the artefacts are always a joy to uncover! 🥹🤎
why is the field not cultivated so late in the season?
We’ve had lots of flooding, so cultivating was really late this year. Likely going to be food shortages because of how badly we’ve been effected here in Lincolnshire.
Do you find getting permission to search fields easy most of the time?
It’s probably the hardest part of the hobby for sure! Takes a long time to build up relationships and if you’re not an extrovert it can be a challenging 🥹 But you got to stick at it 💪
noob swinging machine.
Nice one 👍
Thanks!! 🙌🤎
