I think the hammered coin is John. The reverse is the mint of Durham and the moneyer is Pieres. It's a very nice coin for the type. They kept the same design and name of Henry II because the coins of Henry were know throughout the UK and Europe as trusted good silver. They wanted to maintain the appearance of quality.
So that means the coin was made around 1199 to 1216.. or a bit after, that’s crazy old and extremely rare to find those hammered coins in that good of condition
The coin looks to be a Pieres on Durham, class 5c (the X of REX on the obverse has rippled limbs so that makes it a 5c) shortcross penny. It's King John and was minted 1206-07. A lovely coin, very well done.
Always amazed that a coin can be lost for 800 years without being destroyed by farming activities. Plus, it was in a field that had been detected many times before. That is why I keep tuning in. Great job, Martin and John.
Many thanks Steven. Just shows you, but if that coins on its edge or deeper than six inches you’ll never find it…. That’s why ploughed fields just keep on giving 🤩
'Tyree' was the title of a book by Hermann Melville, who famously wrote Moby Dick. Do you ever feel inclined to ram sailing ships that have tossed pointy sticks at you? If so, it's only natural. I'd do the same myself. 😁😁😬😁😁
To my mind, John, the most exciting find of the day was the decorated silver strip. I'm pretty sure it's a small Viking decorated broad-band silver arm ring. They were used for currency around 800 to 900 AD in areas where coinage wasn't circulating. I was with the finder of the Galloway hoard on the amazing day when we found the hoard so know them well. Well done to Martin! But a lovely coin too!
That item after the muffler is a shire horse bell hanger I believe. My friend found a complete one in wales and I found all the bells that were attached to it 👍🏻
What a beautiful day! Congratulations to Martyn! So many awesome finds on the field that keeps on giving. Well done John. Not only on the finds but for the 40k as well. Keep detecting and I will keep watching and learning…😊
Wow!! What A coin marty lad! Some nice finds there John I've had a month off TH-cam so I'm gunna enjoy tonight watching the 16 videos I've missed gunna be a long night 😂 thanks for sharing keep up the hard work mate 👍
Wow congratulations Martin!!! What a find!!. Being from California I'm thrilled when you all find something from the 1800s and then you find something that was around in the 1200s!!!! So cool!!!🎉🎉
Happy Sunday! Waking up to you and Martin on the fields of Perthshire. Many of the coins in that field were beauties, but Martin’s silver coin was amazing. 🥰💕❤️👍👍
Much appreciated John. And I think the hammered is a John!! Dating from around 1205-1207…. What a way to get your first silver with the new machine XP DEUS 2
@@thescottishdetectorist I didn’t know Martin had gotten a Deus 2 but he made a good choice. It seems like he is on his way with finding good targets with it. The best to both of you… John
Love the watch key. I have an identical one that I bought to match my great grandfather’s watch that dates from about the 1870s. On the topic of watches, when you find quintessential Victorian silver ones, you should look for the strike mark of the dancing bears facing each other inside the back case.That is indicative of silver that was assayed and confirmed in Switzerland. What is more, to protect UK watchmakers in latter Victorian times, there was an import tariff against imported pocket watches. However, it only applied to complete articles. Thus, the sneaky Swiss created the so-called “parts watch” that was imported into the UK disassembled. All the British watchmakers had to do was put it together, and then sell it off at a competitive price. To sweeten the deal further, the Swiss would brand the face of the watch with the name of the British watchmaker. They would also provide the watchmaker with keys like the one you found, with the business address on one side, and some sort of promo blurb on the other. PS, my great grandfather’s watch was bought when he was based in London as an ensign with the 3rd. Regiment of Foot. My grandfather (his second son) used it around the era of WW1 when working in the shipbuilding industry along the Clyde, as he was then the spare (and not the heir). He was put to labor as an apprentice manager at one of the yards, with his first job being a riveter’s mate (swinging a hammer). That meant two things, firstly he developed massive forearms that were too big for a a wristwatch. It also meant he was in a reserved occupation in WW1.
What a fantastic permission that is! Brilliant finds on there and yes that Vesta case is great to find but wow well done Marti! Perfect little hammered of either John or Henry 2nd? Letters are a bit different than the half John I found a few weeks ago but if they didn’t change into Henry, or minted in a different place, then it could be either? 🎉👏👏
Martin's coin is a John. I found one in Warwickshire when i visited last year. It was my first signal on a friends farm! We are luck to find early Victorias here in Australia! So something from 1205 (John reigned from 1195-1216) is very special! Cheers
Excellent Find Martin ! Congratulations, Sir. John, Very Nice work on the vids. I really appreciate the 'overlay' on the illegible coins. I think I like Your method better than the side by side comparisons.
Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend, from this old man in Tennessee. Definitely medieval. A great field. That round thing with the ceramic inserts is part of an antikythera machine, from the ancient city of Atlantis. Yep…I recognize it…sure thing. Lots of awesome coins.
It would be so awesome to make such a find. Great for Marty. The other finds were very interesting as well, and a great outing even without the hammered coin. Cheers from Texas.
A great show as always John and it was a busy 3 hours for you I love the vesta and owl , what a shame it's crushed. Last but not least congratulations to Martin on his hammered silver a very interesting and entertaining video.
@16:50 The finds from 2 years ago look very Viking-era to me. Could be part of an arm ring and a Wodan head on a possible sword ornament. The Galloway Hoard has stuff like that.
Wow that first coin you found is awesome. The hammered coin Martin found, crazy old! That is exciting. Also love the owl decorated case you found. Great work
Hi John, what a great day. You and Martin work so well together. I'm pretty sure the pretty little "angel thing" with one wing broken, is a lamp finial. Used to hold the lamp shade on. They screw onto the top of the lamp harp and hold the shade tight. Great video ❤ Dava
Hi John, Did you read the comment I left this morning? The decorated silver bar Martin found and you suggested was medieval is 100% Viking. It's possible you've got a scattered Viking-age hoard in that field!
Good evening Dr. I’ve just logged in and now playing catch up. Thanks so much for getting in touch and it must have been quite the experience to find what you did! Did you realise the significance at the time or did that only come later? I was fairly convinced it was early medieval around 12th/13th century but if it’s Viking even better!! We’ve never had anything Viking of any permission in Perthshire so most of the time we just assume everything isn’t Viking! Martyn has just forwarded me on the details from the museum when they returned the item and they say…. Fragment of a silver strip with incised decoration on one surface, the straightened section of the band of a finger ring, circa 1500-1700 🤷🏻♂️ As I say I think it’s older but Viking would be even better!!
Derek knew the significance right from the start, but it got better and better as the day went by, especially when we came across the lower level of the hoard - or I should say the three hoards buried below the top hoard!
Unbelievable. What a day, that video would make some TH-cam video!!! I’ve yet to see the hoard in person, but fingers crossed one day I might find something similar!!
@@thescottishdetectorist Hi John, This is part of the e-mail I sent to Adrian Maldonado: 'I doesn’t at all look like a silver ring fragment to me. The ends are neatly cut off and it is flat.

What a stunning early medieval hammered coin. I remember my first one being an Edward 1st and i had no idea just how old it was. It blew my mind to discover it was around 700-years old! You cant explain how precious it is to know its now yours and the fact you had the wherewithal to find it. Absolutely incredible find and one to treasure.

In the 15 years I've been detecting, I've still not had a short cross, had absolutely everything else, medieval gold ring etc etc, but still not the elusive short cross,congratulations 😊
There were only three short cross monyers in Durham, and one of them was Pieres. Just had a look at the types of coins he did, and got 4b, 5a2, 5b1, 5b2, 5c, 6a2, and 7a1. The rest is down to you, because I don't have a clue 😅 You've probably got at least that far yourself, but boosting the algorithm with an interaction is always worthwhile.

Great video again John and well done Martin. Superb hammered .... Full flan too! Looks like either a Henry III or a King John to me, but I'm no expert
Thank you for showing us how the coin would look.
Martin's silver is Henry Ii, 1154 - 89, short cross penny. Well done !
Shortcross if I remember were only minted between 1180 and 1247 so that's some age,and looks as good as the day it was minted.cracking find 😍😍😍
Good Job Both and congratulation Martin. That was great bunch of finds guys Thanks for sharing.
Much appreciated as ever Donald , some great finds and that hammered just tops it off!!! 🤩
