Welcome to the gold coin fraternity! It's exciting when a gold coin pops out. That first one will always bring a smile to your face. Congrats!
I take it out and hold it every night!! Thanks for having me in the fraternity 😆
@@thescottishdetectorist My son went detecting down the sides of a secondhand sofa, he found 2 sovereigns, then he built me a gaming PC, which cost me another 2 sovereigns.
Within a couple of months of careful CURRENCY management, I detected another 2 sovereigns at my local coin shop.
Am I getting through to anyone?
20 years toil, to get your eventual reward. It was great hearing the excitement in your voice. Bless up bro 👊
Thanks Nick. Yes, I certainly put in the effort and deserved it!!
Wow wow wow congratulations on your finds. A GOLD coin that’s amazing. 🌻🌻
20 years paid off nicely this dig. Congrats brother - it’s a beauty!
Cool to see you here Rob love your channel!
@@wingman5240 thanks brother!
Many thanks Rob. We’ve had some great finds so far this year
20 years for ONE coin ? Lol
There is nothing like finding a gold coin, is there? Good on you, man! I know the feeling from 10 years ago like it was yesterday. You will never forget it. Congratulations!
I certainly won’t. I just hope I don’t have to wait another twenty years for the next one!! Many thanks
@ The Scottish Detectorist,
Nice Finds, especially @ 19:25/27:43 with Digging Up a Gold Coin known as a Sovereign 1914 King George V. Excellent Job with the Find.
The badge is the Ceylon planters rifle Corps badge it was a reserve regiment based in Kandy Made up of Europeans that were tea and rubber planters of Sri-Lanka.
Congrats on finding your first gold and a blighter of a gold it is.
Many thanks. I’m still trying to find out how the Ceylon Planters badge got all the way to Perthshire as I can’t find any reference to them having been here! And thanks on the gold!!
A day littered with SILVER 💥 and GOLD 💥 🤩 love it 😊
What a great hunt! All those copper George V's, and you hit that gold ½-sov, and all of a sudden you're happy to see him! Great video.
Glad you like. Over the moon with the gold and we’ve had some amazing finds recently.... I just wish I’d set this channel up years ago as I’ve had some amazing things I’ve the years
If all the coins that the Scottish detectorist found were equivalent to today’s money, it would be like finding a couple of 1ps and 2ps then finding a pound!
Absolutely amazing fella, and well deserved, many holes dug in 20 years. thanks for sharing this grweat moment with us, take care
Oh yes.... a lot of digging over the last 20 years especially in the past 13 months as I’ve really stepped it up through Covid as my daily exercise! Found some great things too!
How do you get permission to search??
@@hollysmith555 easy way=there are groups you can join that get the permission ,and then pay them to go on a group dig. Hard way =you can get your own permission by knocking on landowners doors for a chat about searching there land and come to an agreement with them
I could feel the excitement here . Congratulations 🥳 💪🤩🥇
The 1939 shilling would be 50% silver. I remember the 1970’s in my teens getting into coin collecting and even then, post-decimalisation, regularly coming across sixpence, shillings and florins from pre-war years in general circulation - they were probably barely worth more than face value as silver prices were obviously very low. How times change - now they are treasure waiting to be detected and re-discovered. Thanks for the entertaining video and congratulations.
Wow congratulations on your 1st gold coin find..its in great condition!!..love watching your videos and tiktok lives got me hooked on them...😁thankyou for sharing.
Thanks Karen, and I’m glad you’re enjoying my TH-cam and TikTok!! Hopefully plenty more great finds to come!!
What a fantastic day you had bud 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 absolutely brilliant well done!!
Yes. I always figured the longer you go without a gold coin the more likely you are to find one as the law of averages moved in your favour... still didn’t think it would take 20yrs mind you!!
Great video and absolutely delighted for you with the gold coin after 20 years, that's dedication my friend. Love watching your adventures keep them coming. 👍😁
Many thanks. That’s it.... put in the hours and hopefully you get the reward!! With some luck I won’t need to wait 20years for the next gold coin 😛
@@thescottishdetectorist hopefully gold all the way from now😁
Wonderful gold coin! Well deserved after 20 years of detecting! I found a 6th century gold coin just after two years of detecting. And now seven years later, I still have just one! 😄👍
Many thanks! Maybe you peaked too soon, but I’m sure there’ll be plenty more to come for both of us....... fingers 🤞
Hello from Texas! Maybe your find at 5:51 is part of a spoon or fork handle?? I was excited to find your channel. I have been to Scotland twice and I truly have a great appreciation and respect for everything about the people, history and the most beautiful countrysides and castles I have ever seen. I am excited to see what all you find. Take care and happy hunting. :)
Thanks for the kind words and I’m glad you enjoy the content! Hopefully some great things to come!! Best wishes, John
Al-u- mini-um. A-loom-in-num. I love your accent.
Thanks 😊 I must sound a bit weird to a lot of people 😂
@@thescottishdetectorist I have a southern accent from the USA, so I sound weird to a lot of people too.
We’d get on like a house on fire!! 😂
Congratulations! That’s very exciting and what a beautiful coin
Thanks. I was over the moon. The colours of the gold are so vibrant but apparently pure gold just keeps its natural colour without tainting
That’s an awesome find! Congrats 👏 Was really feeling your excitement and was great, the way you uncovered it, with so much suspense! Well done. Let’s hope your next gold coin doesn’t take another 20 years! Love your videos. Thanks. From Australia 🇦🇺
I hope you’re right!!! Many thanks
Congratulations 👍👍
Congratulations on your first Gold coin in 20 years, I've been detecting for 6 years now, hope I don't have to wait 20 years cuz I'll be 80 by then. Great video
Thanks, best of luck to you
quality finds keep up the videos
Being in North America, i wish we could find lovely coin like your finds.
Well done..that feild is a bloody treasure chest
Hoot man! Great find!!!
Damn good luck, looking at the condition of that coin I'd at least say it's around £450+ nowadays, if I were you I'd keep that puppy safe and treasure that find :p
I’ve added it to my collection 😉
Brilliant video John, your photography skills and commentary is fab! So special finding your first gold coin. I only occasionally detct now but found my 5th one 2/52 ago and it was a queen Anne half-guinea but you can't beat the buzz it gives you. Well done my friend.
Andy

Wow that’s awesome!!! Still waiting for my first gold coin after 30 years 🤣🤣🤣 One day!!! Well done 👍
I feel for you! But I figure the longer the wait goes on the more likely it is to happen
@@thescottishdetectorist no it will happen 👍
Your Tik tok tours are brilliant ! i listened to the Scone palace live today! So informatigve and interesting. Thank you
Thanks Tom. I’m glad you enjoyed the live! Plenty more to come in the coming weeks too

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT SAVES!!!! Congrats on the Goldie!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 cheers fae 🇨🇦
Many thanks! Much appreciated
Looks mint! Wow!
What a beauty!
Thanks. It might not be particularly old but after 20yrs of waiting it’s my first gold coin and I’m over the moon!!
Well done, I found the Earl of Glasgow's Gold cufflink which at the time was exciting--and he got it back.
Lucky you! I hope he appreciated your hard work!
Great detail on the shilling! Clearing the dirt off that gold coin must have been a rush. Looks like it’s fresh from the mint - Keith
Yeah it’s beautiful isn’t it. The two silver I got were great finds as was never mind getting the gold!! And Martyn came up with double silver too! What a day
Congratulations! I was yelling at the screen like I had found it. I wonder if a well off family lived there with all the silver and gold. George V certainly is gorgeous in gold.
Thanks Mike. We’ve had two off this field now both half sovereigns and we think it relates to soldiers training here prior to heading to Europe for ww1…. Gold being spendable anywhere! But we’ll never know
Congratulations! Beautiful coin.
Thank you
Beautiful find. Congratulations. Greetings from a detectorist from Czech rep. 👍
Super duper congratulations on that gold coin !!!
Many thanks
What an amazing find. Gold! Congratulations. Really enjoyed the video with all those lovely George V coins.
Thanks! We’ve had dozens of George V pennies and half pennies from this field and they all have a lovely patina too!
Beautiful gold!!!
Thanks, yeah it’s a beauty
Awsome ! Well done ..congratulations !
Thank very much!!
Congratulations on the gold coin!
The 1939 shilling is composed of 50% silver and 50% copper. The second silver is a sixpence and is composed of sterling silver 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper.
Awesome!
Wow, congratulations that must be amazing. This coin goes for 600$+ but I’m sure the memory is priceless.
Yes, it’s a beautiful coin. A real beauty

Absolutely jealous of the way your coins come out of the ground. Our copper coins are destroyed. I'd love to go on a tour of Europe and just metal detect all day long. Gold coin was beautiful.

That coins looks fantastic! I hope to get one someday.
Very cool thanks for sharing.

Many thanks Beano!!
