  • What a Day, Metal Detecting UK in the South East of England! Quite wild but that doesn't matter when you are finding Roman jewellery and Anglo Saxon Coins! And Medieval artefacts and other bits and pieces!!! All found with the XP Deus Metal Detector
    For the video on English and Continental Jettons please see:
    • Metal Detecting Finds ...
    It doesn't get much better than this! And It was good to get out and about participating in one of the great outdoor hobbies, metal detecting for lost treasure! Sadly I had to leave Tasciovanus (my trusty Jack Russell Terrier) behind but he makes an appearance back at Headquarters!
    I haven’t given too many XP Deus tips or tips for metal detecting for beginners in this video but please feel free to leave a comment if you need to pick my brain over anything, especially if you are learning to use the XP Deus Lite.
    And Please SUBSCRIBE!!! if you haven’t already - its really good fun making these short videos but they do take a bit of time and its really good to know they are being enjoyed!
    And for all your Metal Detecting needs... advice, ID, stories (and camaraderie!!!) please go to www.thedetectinghub.co.uk - you will find them very helpful
    And for my Film Work I use:
    ⭐️DJI Pocket 2 - very handy wide angle camera and gimbal:
    amzn.to/3x35Arp
    ⭐️The Sony ZV1; This is the best camera of its type I have bought:
    amzn.to/40CypIU
    ⭐️Tascam Digital Sound Recorder: wouldn't leave home without it now...
    amzn.to/3Y9C1jD
    ⭐️Mini Mavic 3: Bloody good fun Drone!
    amzn.to/40sY86i
    HQ KIT!
    ⭐️Large Desk Magnifying Glass:

      Ha! It’s so funny that people get so worked up by a bit of coin rubbing when an artefact or coin has been often turned over yearly for centuries by metal blades , had endless dumplings of fertiliser, stamped and peed on by cattle, the list goes on… and then in the excitement we try to remove a little dirt with our soft fingers and it’s as if we have opened the gates of hell! 😂we will be wearing white gloves next

    Seems every time there is a tad of adversity the relic gods smile upon us diggers. Cold, wind, heat, hard terrain, etc. When we lean into it we are rewarded. Seems to be the same for all we do in life as well. Great finds and something to be proud of. May be Setting the bar high to outdo on the next outing??? Thanks for sharing! Regards

    • @HolzHammerSagas

      I do worry about setting the bar a bit BC, and yes the Gods do tend to throw us crumbs when we need them but I didn't really need it that day… I would've been happy just with the broooch and those buckles and a coin or two! All the Best, Alexander

      I sometimes think he's too intelligent Allan which gives him a very very strong mind but he really is turning out to be a brilliant dog; he gets very overexcited and I've noticed he gets very tough with other dogs but only if he is approached aggressively first... Anyway, hope all well with you down there! All the best!

    The holes in coins become they naild them on the door or on the counter.

    Oh my, the brooch, the Confessor....you would be forgiven if thinking that Confessor coin was minted last year! Just beautiful. It has been nice here the past couple of weeks. Temps have been in the 70s since my birthday last week. This morning I sat on my front porch and watched an inundation of Robins. One got really into his bath where I felt I should ask him if he would like a loofa and soap. Robins, cedar waxwings, tufted titmice, and lesser goldfinches. You would think it is spring. Plus the odd woodpecker. It was a noisy riot in the trees.

    • @HolzHammerSagas
      @HolzHammerSagas  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Gosh Cyndye I am very jealous about you seeing see the waxwings they are my one of my favourite birds though I've never seen them in real life I think we get a different type, Siberian one or something that occasionally makes its way over to the UK when winters are very bad in Russia ( or the East) - I hope you don't mind me saying so but I have several cases of stuffed waxwings! I just love them, anyway hope all well with you and thank you very much for watching - Glad the temperatures are rising! All the best, Alexander

    • @fiberotter
      @fiberotter ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@HolzHammerSagas I would love to see those waxwings you have. I look on the stuffed ones as preserved for posterity. I doubt any birds were harmed. Kind of like the taxidermy animals and birds in a museum. These that I have sport not only the strange waxy tips on wings and tail, but are a beautiful gray with black masks and back sloping head tufts. Very sleek looking. Texas has a huge area of cedar, or more accurately, Ash juniper. I am allergic to them so suffer every winter when they set pollen. Many times I have been spooked thinking my pasture was on fire, only to realize it was cedar pollen blown in the air. I had better be on my meds by then.

    Well Alexander you have gone and done it again with your fantastic find of a Saxon Penny, the Holy Grail for most detectorists! I am still looking for mine after 40 years of detecting. That is the great thing about detecting, there is always hope. 'We live in hope' should be our motto😄
    Anyway thank you so much for another brilliant episode - I think one of the TV channels should snap you up for a proper documentary on metal detecting👍👍

      That would be nice Bodger! Someone suggested I tout myself out a bit but I'm not very good at self promotion -I'm rather hoping someone will just come and pick me up😊 anyway, thank you very much for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it! And we live in hope it's a great motto but it's sort of unnecessary - I think all you have to do is not to expect anything, at any time, and then when you are digging a hole not even thinking it's going to be something rubbish - that's when it happens! 😂

    Nice Brooch Alex, I am sure most detectorists would love to find one like that. They are certainly not that frequently found. The loop was for a chain which joined a pair together, one on each shoulder. They were worn with the loop at the bottom so we generally show the Roman Brooches the wrong way up! Very nice Saxon coin there too. The holes in the coins were for keeping them on strings I read, notice the roughly punched hole to avoid losing too much weight. 👍

    • @HolzHammerSagas

      It's a bit of both SD - to be fair I always vaguely grid but don't do it in too regimented a fashion i.e. I know I'm not exactly covering every swing and then if I get bored I start wandering as I know I just wont enjoy it if the gridding becomes too much! But the main point is when I do religiously grid in a very regimented fashion and do it very slowly I definitely find a lot, lot less - Don't ask me why because I don't know!
