I saw on a history program that cities in earlier ages had people who shoveled up the streets (dung human or animal, trash etc), the mess was taken out to farmer's fields which could explain why such strange things can be found out in the middle of nowhere.
@@thescottishdetectorist dear friend, these things digged out of ground, they can be dangerous and harmful for your thin soul feelings and attention, especially that bronze bull head it looks scary, it can be a religious artifacts were used for spiritual rituals. That is very serious, not only figure of ancient metal
The workmanship of that bucket handle attachment is mind blowing! That bull is beautiful. I am looking forward to hearing the reaction of the archeologists.
Hey up John, just switched on to the site and I'm so thrilled by your finds,I think that the ring is a ladies by the size and probably Celtic aswell best regards Jeff
They didn't start faceting stones until roundabout the 1500s. And they were roughly done to start with..Big Congrats to Albert for his Stunning find. It gave me the shivers in a good way when I saw it ....It is Beautiful. I'm sure there will be some more epic finds to come. So come on John i'm rooting for you 🤞
Amazing finds!! I wanted to throw my idea out there that the smoothed stone was actually used as a tool medieval manuscript writers would use. Stones were used to smooth down parchment or vellum in order for the surface to be thin and ready for writing on. Old monastic sites often have a scriptorium, where the monks (often the only people in the town community who could read, write and translate books) would make copies of books everyday. This would explain the decoration on its top, as this tool would be very important to the men of the church. Looking forward to an experts opinion on it!!
@The Scottish Detectorist What colour is the stone with the cross edged on it? Does it look like a local stone? I thought it looked a green colour (difficult to tell on the video), similar to the green pebbles that you find on the beach on Iona that St Columbus first stepped ashore on. I have some of the pebbles from that beach..
Congratulations for this find of the Iron Age Ochs. This is real history. Coins silver or gold any age are history as well but you can’t compare it. History is this kind of finds. This finds pull you back directly. To be honest I never found gold, same silver stuff, coins different ages, also Roman. Two years ago about this time within a forest I got a signal 19. Maximum depth. Under a root . I took me about 15 minutes to get it. When I took it out of the ground I looked straight into the face of Pandora. I was shocked and scared. I found, I don’t know the exact description in English. But it was a medallion from a legionaries. They had a kind of breast protection, showing the ranks. It is about 2300 years old. So what I want to say. This is the history what we are out for. Again my congratulations ❤.
The horse pendant looks as it goes with the so called furniture fitting that was found later. I think it is the frame it would go in. Great video as usual 👍
What a great find. It’s reassuring to know that in a time where everyone is clambering fit the latest multi frequency machine, the VLF AT pro can find such a beautiful artefact. Well done.
Thank you for the update so far on these magnificent finds from last time! I just got goosebumps again watching this, and I can't begin to imagine how you must have felt on the field that day. I also can't wait to hear what the museum has to say about it. It's really so exciting. Actually, the bull or ox head reminds me of an aurochs, the now extinct ancestor of our modern day cattle. There's even a Norse rune, Uruz, which means aurochs. It's an animal that would have been around, if your find is indeed as old as you believe. The long, slim nose and the very curved, long horns make me think of this animal, even stylized as this beautiful piece is. And congrats to the new finds. That ring is awesome, too! If I were you, I'd now have the urge to rob the farmer of his field, set up a hut there, and go digging non-stop each day. 🤣
@@Tseringlhatso Hmm, online it says, the aurochs has gone extinct in Britain about 3000 years ago. Not Britan, but the last individual apparently died in Poland in only 1627... There would, of course, also have been hybrids between the aurochs and other domestic cattle back then, which could have created breeds that looked much like this find.
Hey up . The big tractor related part is a PTO shaft connector ,fits on a spline to the back of an tractor and goes to an implement .PTO = power take off shaft. Very nice ring John .keep up the great work . My mind is blown with the what is an amazing piece of history ( Bronze what looks like Oxen, bull or cattle head ) ,much more to come for that I am sure guys .Regards H😉
@@thescottishdetectorist From my online research . Looks like from an Iron Age Bucket Burial. The Bucket being wood with wide bronze sheet bands around it. The bucket would contain the remains plus valuable objects like brooches and bowls etc. You need the Hoard Hunter on that field to find the rest of it.! 👍🏻
The fact that you're on top of a hill that possesses a very high water table makes it an ideal settlement site. Good sight lines in all directions so defendable in times of strife with easy access to water (Just dig a hole and there it is!) Also lots of water is needed when making metal goods. So it's looking like you've found a defendable settlement with enough of a water supply for metalwork. It needs a ground radar study done at the very least!
I see that you are up to 29.7K subscribers! Way to go!!! Love watching you and to see what you find. Keep up the good work! Sending this from Southern Mississippi, USA
Thanks Del. Much appreciated. We’ve had a great run and there’s another belter find coming soon thanks to Sneaky Pete…. Everyone else bar me getting the luck these days 😂

Taikuu Gentleman for enduring the cold and wind to give us another video. Epic finds don't come every day but this is the way of detectors. On to the next...
That ox has my imagination going wild. I am absolutely no expert (but it makes it exciting!) It looks both sorta Viking-ish , like the boat dragonheads and also has similarities in design to some african animal head masks designs. Incredible.
Congrats on finding that old ring John! Metal detecting is such a rush and so relaxing....one never knows what the next signal will be, hey?!! Mike in sunny Florida
Just happened upon your channel and I really like your delivery. So exciting to be included in all you signals. One thing you might not know is that a small, thin piece of something cut or split off a larger piece is a sliVer not a sliTHer (that's what snakes do).
Welcome to the Channel E b happy to have you. And thanks for explaining, my whole life I’ve been calling it a slither 🐍 what an ass I am 😂 Enjoy the other videos, and don’t miss the previous one of the bronze bull discovery, it’s the greatest find I’ve ever seen in 23 years
Hi John 👋 Definitely looks to have some age to the ring, great find. I think you're right about the pendant Albert found too. Great finds 👏 👏. I'm still spreading the word about your channel 👍
I didn't comment on the Minie' ball you found because it is a pretty common find for me. I hunt a lot of American Civil War sites. I would dare to guess that the ball/bullet came from a Lee-Enfield model 1853. That rifle had a bore of .577 caliber and used ammuition with a .550 caliber. Still can't believe what Albert found. I'm blown away. Cheers.
Thanks for the input Callie. I think I’ve maybe had two before, though I think Albert got one a few months back. An incredible calibre of bullet! Thanks for the info, much appreciated and yes an epic find from Albert, I was blown away
I understand that we all get excited when we have a find of any significance. Calling it the most significant metal detector find ever in Scotland? Bit presumptuous considering that you haven’t called a museum yet. Please pardon my wet blanket comment. There aren’t words that describe how tingly my bits would have become if it was my “Top Pocket” find. Thank you a thousand times over for being such an honest man and reporting your find. No telling what May come of it mates. Great stuff all around.
Fantastic Bull find! Can't stop watching it! Amazes me as to how they made them when life was so primitive then! As to your Ring John @TheScottishdetectorist I have many rough Garnets found by Si-finds mudlark, on the banks of the Thames in London, they all vary in colour, some are so dark they actually look black! they're believed to have been used as some sort of ballast on the ships. Anyway I hope you're ring cleans up well and it turns out to be ancient. Well done! And well done again Albert on your beautiful Bull! 👏👏👏👏👍👍😘😘😘😂Chez in Lliria Valencia Spain 😘
About your garnet ring find... You might try asking Cliff (from Australia) who has the TH-cam channel 'Vintage Time'. He's a stone cutter who knows a bunch about the craft. If he doesn't know when they started actually cutting gemstones, he can point you in the right direction.
@@thescottishdetectorist can’t wait too watch the next video! 😁 I once found a silver English coin at a site where a English plane crashed nearby in ww2 the coin was pretty bend and from 1942 The best thing about the hobby are finds with a nice story behind it!
John I just wanted to Thankyou for the time and effort you put into these uploads. I’m shattered after a session out in the fields, so to do all the filming as well, you deserve all that you find. Again some fantastic finds and I wish you all the success with your channel, I’ve been watching your uploads for awhile now. Cheers again to you and your mates!
Thanks for the kind words and I’m glad you enjoy! Yes we’ve had some great finds and I’m glad you’re enjoying. It’s a lot of effort to work then detect, edit and post but I’m glad so many are enjoying it. Makes it all worthwhile
Just watching your video and you mentioned wet knees - where’s your knee pads?! Still can’t believe that Ox head has been in the ground that long, amazing. Good luck with the museum 🙂
I find your videos really entertaining. Great finds and always well explained. Thank you very much for that! What I would like is that you turn up the detector so that the viewer can hear the sounds better! Greetings from Germany! Carsten
I see you’re on your way to 12k! Well done, John. Which museum have you notified about the Celtic bull? Any museum would be absolutely thrilled to have it. Of those I’ve seen online (bronze bull head bucket mounts) none are as beautiful or ornate as Albert’s. The ring looks medieval in style. :^)
We notify Treasure Trove tomorrow… they don’t work weekends! Lucky them 😂 then we’ll see what they say! Hopefully it ends up on display in Edinburgh and I agree I can’t find a single one online that’s even close to that quality 🤩
Haha 😂 it isn’t always like this but we are on a run that’s for sure!! Perthshire is the cradle of civilisation in Scotland, or at least that’s what I’m always saying!! 😂
I’ve just finished watching the bull find and glad to see another post for me to watch. I don’t suppose you have room for an Aberdonian for a day or two do you? 😉😉
@@thescottishdetectorist nooooooo!!!! You can't make us wait that long after teasing us like that John!! Get it posted now!!! Pleeeeeaaaasssseeeeee!!! 👏👍😂😘😘😘😘😘😘
@@thescottishdetectorist I look forward to it, found my 1st cut hammered yesterday so I was well pleased with that, makes a change from the kilos of lead I normally find 😂
Still raining in California... your videos are helping to keep me sane..almost.. the medieval horse pendant is interesting to google. And now I know how Albert is coming up with these: he is a time traveler and remembers where he dropped them! 😂
Hope you're managing to stay dry n safe! Very cold wind here in valencia Spain, today, it's currently 11.35 and 14° but the wind chill means it feels like 3° !!! Which is cold for us!!! Hope the rains move on soon! Much love 😘
You should watch some of the earlier Aquachigger episodes. He's awesome at explaining 1800s bullets as he detects a lot of early American sites. His technique for pin pointing us excellent too. He rarely uses his carrot except in the water. Just handfuls over the coil, really fast!
If you getting cold hands then get on eBay and buy a pair of neoprene paddle boarding gloves- total game changer! Loads of grip, very comfortable and warm hands. Clean up easy in muddy conditions . Mine were £20 and would not be without them.
Without giving anything away, was this field a village once upon a time… just curious how there’s such a wide variety of items; bullets, military buttons, lead seals, coins, knives, ancient sculptured bronze pieces.
Thanks Pauline great info, I’m intrigued though because I thought the Sutton Hoo garnets were faceted and they’re what 8th or 9th century…. I need to do more investigations
Where you pulled out that triangle fragment of copper, I hope you went over the spoil once it was out. Because, ....... pretty sure I saw a thick, maybe 4mm x 12mm diametre, coin poking out. Looked obvious on the footage.
What a find!!! You must let us know more about the ring and the item Albert found when you can.👏👏👍👍😉I think my comment on the previous video got deleted, oh well.
@@thescottishdetectorist it would be so fascinating if the garnet is related to the mysterious Thames garnets! Probably way too expensive to research that though…
Amazing finds, the oldest find I have is a possible 1660s pair of Chinese bronze coins, don't know how I would react if I dug something 2000 years old.👍😁
I saw on a history program that cities in earlier ages had people who shoveled up the streets (dung human or animal, trash etc), the mess was taken out to farmer's fields which could explain why such strange things can be found out in the middle of nowhere.

😂 are you looking to detect or move in? And can you cook 😂 👨🍳
That’ll be a no then 😂
Lol, "it's a mole with a gold tooth". Now that's funny!
Many thanks Chris
And the finds keep coming 🍺👌
Many thanks SD. Yes another great day, and the next digs even better…. Spoiler alert 🚨… it will be posted in a few days!
@@thescottishdetectorist nooooooo!!!! You can't make us wait that long after teasing us like that John!! Get it posted now!!! Pleeeeeaaaasssseeeeee!!! 👏👍😂😘😘😘😘😘😘
@@thescottishdetectorist I look forward to it, found my 1st cut hammered yesterday so I was well pleased with that, makes a change from the kilos of lead I normally find 😂
A metal ring is always a great find. Whether it's metal or new, old.
Amen, still undecided to an age, but certainly doesn’t seem to be iron age
You need hand warmers!
Super finds!
Thanks
Amen 🙏 ✋🏻 🔥
Another cracking dig! 🎉
Thanks ED. The finds keep on coming. I know that other bucket mount is out there somewhere!!! Fingers crossed 🤞
@@thescottishdetectorist to be honest, it looks like you need more hands on deck. Let me know 😜
Holy Cow, Albert has found a hot spot
He has indeed! 🤩
that ring..the gemstone i believe is a ruby ..as the light goes through it its shining a pink hue..so very special ring
Thanks Carine. I believe it’s a ruby too, maybe medieval but still a great find
Howay John lad give them lads a call up and let's get out on those fields asap!I need to see yous find that hoard that's surely out there somewhere.
New video just uploaded Jeffrey and it’s a beauty 🤩
Beautiful ring. Garnet is my birthstone.
Many thanks 💎
Beautiful object
Good video I enjoyed it, will catch you on the next one. 🇺🇸
A stylized Auroch even :)
Whoop whoop 🥳
Congratulations on 11k bud, well deserved.
Much appreciated
So cool.
Together those two finds represent A truly great sight could be very significant. Please let us know what you find out from the museum. Best of luck.
Update coming soon. Museum very excited by photos
Sweet, did you get the deep detector from Cleggy yet.?
Still raining in California... your videos are helping to keep me sane..almost.. the medieval horse pendant is interesting to google. And now I know how Albert is coming up with these: he is a time traveler and remembers where he dropped them! 😂
Hope you're managing to stay dry n safe! Very cold wind here in valencia Spain, today, it's currently 11.35 and 14° but the wind chill means it feels like 3° !!! Which is cold for us!!! Hope the rains move on soon! Much love 😘
You, too, Agueroooo, we probably have similar climates. I usually don’t turn on heat but only add a wool sweater.
Full half, I shouldn’t complain. We just aren’t accustomed to so much rain. Best wishes
Many thanks and best wishes for better weather
You should watch some of the earlier Aquachigger episodes. He's awesome at explaining 1800s bullets as he detects a lot of early American sites. His technique for pin pointing us excellent too. He rarely uses his carrot except in the water. Just handfuls over the coil, really fast!
I used to do it that way in the old days but don’t like getting my hands dirty 😂
If you getting cold hands then get on eBay and buy a pair of neoprene paddle boarding gloves- total game changer! Loads of grip, very comfortable and warm hands. Clean up easy in muddy conditions . Mine were £20 and would not be without them.
Many thanks Andrew. Can you operate a touch screen whilst wearing them?
Hello from the Antipodean Perth :)
Greeting Kara 👋🏻 hope you enjoyed
OOOOOOOOHHHHHH did you find a ring.
BOYYYY YOU LUCKY MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did indeed! 🤩
The ring looks old, could even be late iron age/early medieval going by how the stone is mounted, a great find for sure
Seems early medieval is the likely date, but still! 🤩
the triangular pendant fits in the triangular frame , its a horse terret , late victorian
Much appreciated Mark, many thanks
Wow and wow .
Much appreciated 😉
Well done mate your smashing it bud
Many thanks DD. An unbelievable discovery 🤩
Very good permission mate hopefully plenty more amazing finds and videos did ya try cleggys machine yet bud 👍
Without giving anything away, was this field a village once upon a time… just curious how there’s such a wide variety of items; bullets, military buttons, lead seals, coins, knives, ancient sculptured bronze pieces.
Keep us updated on the relic wants to know what the museum has to say
Will do! Going soon and they are already very excited 😊
The ring looks like Spinel, definitely not the colour of garnet I've seen. Lovely thing 🙂
Many thanks maybe a ruby
Faceting first started in the mid 15th Century it says on an online search. Stone is beautiful in that ring. Great finds !
Thanks Pauline great info, I’m intrigued though because I thought the Sutton Hoo garnets were faceted and they’re what 8th or 9th century…. I need to do more investigations
@@thescottishdetectorist could be natural facetting..garnets can come like that.
Stone for casting healing spells 😁 amazing finds 😍
Haha maybe 🧙♀️
Where you pulled out that triangle fragment of copper, I hope you went over the spoil once it was out. Because, ....... pretty sure I saw a thick, maybe 4mm x 12mm diametre, coin poking out. Looked obvious on the footage.
Doh 🙄 I’m pretty sure I scanned the hole, but I hope I didn’t forget 😆
Button like Albert’s is King’s Grenadiers I think 🤔
Many Thanks for the great info. Much appreciated
The cutting known as faceting gradually developed from the first attempts in the 15th century, probably in France and the Netherlands.
Thanks for the info 😯
What a find!!! You must let us know more about the ring and the item Albert found when you can.👏👏👍👍😉I think my comment on the previous video got deleted, oh well.
Thanks Al. Hoping for a museum visit soon!! I’ll update you all. I definitely didn’t delete any comment! So don’t know what happened to it
@@thescottishdetectorist it would be so fascinating if the garnet is related to the mysterious Thames garnets! Probably way too expensive to research that though…
Amazing finds, the oldest find I have is a possible 1660s pair of Chinese bronze coins, don't know how I would react if I dug something 2000 years old.👍😁
We are very blessed with the age of things we can find that’s for sure!
