The half penny with the hole in it could have been a child’s toy. Here in the US, people would drill a hole in a small denomination coin, and put a string through the hole. The child would use it by spinning the coin and allowing it to run the distance of the string. Obviously, this was before widespread manufacture of children’s toys.
Fabulous John! Your Farmer friend must be blessing the day he said yes to you!! Especially finding that Elizabeth 1st silver sixpence. (My favourite lady and period in history!) I hope he was over the moon with it! Onwards John, we want to see more!! Much love to you and the family. 😘😘 Chez in Lliria Valencia Spain 😘😘
Not only did they have lead pipe work, but, they found that by reducing fruit juice to ⅓ its original volume in lead lined vats, it produced a syrupy which was quite pleasurable to the taste. They called it Sapa and it contained vastly dangerous levels if lead acetate. The amount of recipes which called for its use was quite staggering. They believe that in the 4th century, there were recipe books for which ⅕ of all recipes contained Sapa. Eventually, they figured out how to create the crystalline form if this lead sugar which only enhanced its reach. Apparently, come the end of the empire, they were by then well aware if the dangers of lead consumption, but, by then it was too late. They believe, as you quite rightly point out, that their downfall could quite possibly be related to the effects of accumulated buildup of lead throughout the body of many of their peoples throughout their extended empire.
Snap! Nice hammered there John. I am amazed that only a few days ago on my permission I also unearthed the same hammered Lizzy 1st Sixpence 1567. My first hammered off this permission. The coin is in great condition too with a lot of detail. Still buzzing with my find. I am out tomorrow with high hopes for another. You got a great new permission there bud. All the best and HH.
Wow, John, the hammered silver coin is fantastic for sure. Even the toasted Turners are awesome to find. Looks like you will have a good number of finds coming up in these new fields. Cheers from Texas, and excited to see what comes next.
Many thanks David. Hopefully lots more to come and the turners plus the silver suggest lots of activity around the 1500/1600’s so hopefully more to come!!! Watch this space and see you on the next!
Beautiful hammered. Congrats! Here in the states, I hear told that it was cheaper to use a big penny for a washer than to buy expensive washers. I just realized that at those early dates, it could have been one of my ancestors who dropped it. Okay, that is just a weird thought. It's the heat. 108f at my house in the hills of s central Texas.
I really enjoy all the historical information you’re full of! Thank you for that! My ancestors are from the Orkney Islands and I’m enjoying your accent very much as I wish I could have know them but glad I live in Canada in todays time line🤭☺️
The holed coin could have had a string through it to wear around the neck, for safe keeping…poor bugger lost a couple days wages… another great video John.
That bar on the Garret is a pain!!! Really enjoyed watching this John. You know the tag you found at 29:51, I found one on my permission which had 3/4 stamped on the back!! Not sure what they were used for. What a find!!! Lovely silver coin mate. Very jealous.👏👏This coincides with me finding two pieces of silver on my permission today. Not coins, one small piece hallmarked 1907, the other on the other side of the field totally blank and I thought it was tin. Kept it with my good finds and did the foil test. My son said it smelt like a fart!!!🤣🤣That's good enough for me.🤣🤣I would appreciate it if you could let me know what cameras you use please John.👍👍
Nice silver John great hammered looks like there will be heaps to be found by what has turned up in such a short time Can hear the excitement in your voice from the first beep Hear in Western Australia I detected local beach a day or so back , found a Samsung S21 Mobil phone it was a tad damp but mange’s to charge it enough to switch on the owner had sent a phone number to it encase it was found , was lost for three days , needle in a hay stack but it was there lucky day , it’s so good to return item to the owner , and see there amassment, lady was so happy Happy hunting Mike
Absolutely epic John, very well done, you lucky Scotsman. I'm champing at the bit waiting for Detectorville, and hoping for a good find. Just one would do, I'm not greedy. 😁
I do enjoy a sit-down with the charming detectorist/history guide. As long as I have my trusty "Wee Guide to the Scottish Language" (with pictures) at the ready. My old raincoat had a fold down clasp just like that one.
…They lost interest in being king and queen of France when they lost their heads. ..”Shock..Horror “.. John, Wonderful find, Thank you for another fascinating history lesson with a dash of humor. Kevin
Lovely new permission John love the lizzie silver and all them turner's well done on another great video as always thanks for sharing and keep up the hard work mate 👍
Absolutely stunning pal what a find. Im so glad to have your videos fell of the scaffold at work last week and broke a lot of bones so im house bound for 8 weeks so im relying on you videos for my detecting fix . Top show
Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend, from these beautiful hills of Tennessee. The days have grown shorter and cooler and the leaves are falling. Stay warm and keep digging while you can. Brilliant finds.
OMG JOHN!!! WHAT A FIND!!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU ON AN EXTREMELY RARE COIN!!!! Gotta hunt a lifetime to find a BEAUTY like that!!! Congrats on a well deserved piece of history!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Such a cracking film there John, and really great mix of finds on that field well done. The hammered Elizebeth is gorgeous pal well done. Did laugh with that reference to ‘Taggert’ about the dove/pidgeon murder All the best to you and thanks for sharing
What Settings do you set your deus2 machine on. Just got one from my son for my 70th birthday. Will be in England in 2024 to swing it for 12 days. Need any tips I can get. Been using a fisher gold bug pro for some years. Like it a lot. But the new deus2 looks like the one to bring to England. Thx. Enjoy your site almost every day. Dana Kirk. , Ashtabula ,Ohio.

Oh! I think your going to spend a lot of time at that permission! and that your anxious to get back there, I know I would be! You may not have been impressed with the impression but you were certainly impressed with the coin, Me too!... its a shame about the turners, hopefully theres some to be found that have survived a bit better! Enjoy yourself Mate! Cheers and Thanks!
I haven't finished watching yet, but I've had gin on a school night and I need to confess that back in the 80s when I was a kid messing about in the farmers' fields near home, I'd find dozens and dozens of intact clay pipe bowls, many still with the little spur on the bottom to keep them upright. They were beautifully and intricately designed and absolutely pristine. I'd take them home to wash the mud out... and then they'd vanish in the mists of time. Since I started detecting earlier this year, these wee things - which meant little to me at the time - have become one of those life regrets that I can do nowt about. Such a shame 🫤
At last the local farmers are reaping, can't wait to get out bronze age tool hunting. Every other county seems to well be ahead of ours 🥲 John's luck strikes again beautiful Elizabeth the first 😃
The half penny was probably holed for a washer since a washer probably costs more than a half penny to purchase. Love your knowledge and shares, remain well!
Hi, fabulous day digging bet the farmer will be pleased. Perhaps the museum could help with the 'A' coin, I haven't a clue, ha ha but I could imagine all of us pressed close to the screen trying to see the details on those coins. Great video, thanks for sharing. Have a great week.
I just discovered your channel and have been captivated by your adventures, discoveries and knowledge. My family is from Aberdeenshire and I make it a point to drive through the countryside of Perthshire every time I go. Out of curiosity, since you mention taking off of work to pursue your hobby, what is it that you do for work? Keep up the exploring and educating those of us that are deeply interested in the history of Scotland and GB.
Another fantastic video John! I learn so much from your videos as i am a beginner detectorist. Thank you. I wanted to ask if you or anyone you know have ever found a Queen Anne coin? I know they are rare due to her short reign.
Yay! This video is like the “good ole days” 😂. Can’t wait for fall to get here and follow more of your detecting adventures. Anyone interested in increasing John’s TH-cam revenue just watch all the ads fully. He’ll get a bigger check ;-)
Congratulations on a great new permission. Amazing Elizabeth silver.wonderful video. Thanks so much. Been a while since you had something for the archeologist to ID.😊
Whoa! What an outstanding day you had. All of the Turners were great, but that beautiful hammered silver coin with Queen Elizabeth I was epic. Well done, John. Please visit that field again soon.
Great new permission!!! Always exciting to see you finding super stuff! Surprised you don't find more clay pipe pieces, really. Didn't know clogs were used in Scotland. Goes to show, you do learn something new every day!!🥰🥰🥰
Isn't that barley field the beginnings of that good Scotch Whiskey? Brass is also an alloy of Copper and Zinc. But Brass is primarily copper and tombac is primarily zinc. (with of course that tiny bit of shiny arsenic)
As predicted, when John got onto a Brand new field! Find would come Lovely Elisabeth 1 sixpence wonder How many pints of ale, that could buy A Barrel gongraths 😜🔝❤️

I agree!
Aha! Thanks for the info Mark!
I have said it before what a privilege to see that coin even more to hold it
Amen Paul. A real beauty and a sore loss for someone that’s for sure!!
Greetings from Canada. Congratulations on the awesome silver coin!
The half penny with the hole in it could have been a child’s toy. Here in the US, people would drill a hole in a small denomination coin, and put a string through the hole. The child would use it by spinning the coin and allowing it to run the distance of the string. Obviously, this was before widespread manufacture of children’s toys.
Never seen this but what I have seen is a large cent with two holes in it they would use as a “wizer”
Oh, boy, a new field with lots of history. Love your videos! 🥰💕❤️👍👍
Many thanks Terry, hopefully many more treasures to come
Even toasty turners are treasures to me because we would not likely find anything that old in California. Nice dig, cheers!🍻
What a beauty of a coin!
Thanks Rob. A real cracker 🤩
Excellent day out in the fields. You’ll have one happy farmer with your beautiful silver 😍🤩
It's the luckiest man in Scotland!!!!! Great job on 31k bud.
Thanks David. I’m certainly lucky with the permissions that’s for sure!! Best wishes
@@thescottishdetectorist well deserved my friend.
Great coins! The metal clip at @12 minutes reminded me of a clip from a glasses case to hold it in your pocket. Cheers from New Orleans
Thanks for watching and for the suggestion! Sounds like a good shout to me! See you on the next dig!
Fabulous John! Your Farmer friend must be blessing the day he said yes to you!! Especially finding that Elizabeth 1st silver sixpence. (My favourite lady and period in history!)

Fingers crossed more to come from these fields

A hammered Ag and 3 Cu turners, and all the rest! Excellent, John!
A pretty successful wee day out!! Fingers crossed for some fantastic finds from these fields!!! 🤩 best wishes
Please don’t call yourself ugly! I think you are quite handsome. You favor George Clooney to be honest. Anyway, thanks for another great video 😉
Aww 🥰 you say the nicest things! Thanks

I think there are a lot of us in Texas following John.
I'm in San Angelo. John has the best detecting channel in my opinion.@@terrymeininger9491
Amazing hammered silver coin!
Much appreciated it’s a belter as we say in Scotland
Beautiful hammered. Congrats! Here in the states, I hear told that it was cheaper to use a big penny for a washer than to buy expensive washers.

Congrats on the silver coin!!!! Elizabeth l has always been my favorite monarch. Love all the history surrounding her reign.
I really enjoy all the historical information you’re full of! Thank you for that! My ancestors are from the Orkney Islands and I’m enjoying your accent very much as I wish I could have know them but glad I live in Canada in todays time line🤭☺️
Congratulations on the new permission. Sure to be full of treasures and surprises. Good luck!
Fingers crossed more to come!! See you on the next dig
Awesome! Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Thanks for watching and for the support!
Crikey Jock, whit a coin tae find. Elizabeth the 1st, from the late 1500’s. Whit a fantastic find son. Well done 👍👍
The holed coin could have had a string through it to wear around the neck, for safe keeping…poor bugger lost a couple days wages… another great video John.
Great days digging mate! Plenty more on that farm😊
What a find! A beauty indeed! How exciting!
Great find for this new permission.
Thanks Maureen. I meant to post a picture of the crop marks in this field but forgot but it’s littered with them so hopefully lots more to come!!

Nice silver John great hammered looks like there will be heaps to be found by what has turned up in such a short time

Happy hunting Mike

A lot of promise in that field!! Cant wait for your next visit!
Absolutely epic John, very well done, you lucky Scotsman. I'm champing at the bit waiting for Detectorville, and hoping for a good find. Just one would do, I'm not greedy. 😁
A fantastic new permission John. What a day , an Elizabeth 1 silver sixpence and all those other finds. I hope the farmer was pleased.
A good bagful of finds John well done and, as usual a great back storey to the Elizabeth 1 Sixpence really enjoyed it thank you
I do enjoy a sit-down with the charming detectorist/history guide. As long as I have my trusty "Wee Guide to the Scottish Language" (with pictures) at the ready. My old raincoat had a fold down clasp just like that one.
it's so fun to tag-a-long with you as you discover bits of history. Great day! Congrats on the new permission!
Great hunt, great finds really enjoyed the video. 🇺🇸

John,
Wonderful find,
Thank you for another fascinating history lesson with a dash of humor.

Butter fingers John 😂 lovely big hammy well done mate 🤩
Lovely new permission John love the lizzie silver and all them turner's well done on another great video as always thanks for sharing and keep up the hard work mate 👍
Amazing coin.
Thanks, over the moon with this one that’s for sure
Nice finds! The coin with the hole may have been used as a spinner toy, put some string through and spin the coin.
Great fines John and well done for your the commentary. hope more to come from this new permission ROBERT
Absolutely stunning pal what a find. Im so glad to have your videos fell of the scaffold at work last week and broke a lot of bones so im house bound for 8 weeks so im relying on you videos for my detecting fix . Top show
Sorry to hear of you accident 😢 This channel will be great company for your recuperation!!😊
Absolutely onwards and upwards . Thanks pal
Looks like a great permission John. Very nice Hammy 👌
The round iron looks like an old Ox Knob. They were put on trimmed horns of bulls and such to stop getting gored.
If not it could be the top of an old bedstead??
That’s a good shout! Thanks
That’s a good call too!!
It's a ball of a lift arm, used on the back of a tractor when they wear they fall out
Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend, from these beautiful hills of Tennessee. The days have grown shorter and cooler and the leaves are falling. Stay warm and keep digging while you can. Brilliant finds.

This is going to be a rather interesting hunt on a new permission. Yes, a nice day for sure.
Thanks David! Hopefully more great things to come!!
@@thescottishdetectorist Oh I am certain of it, If I ever want Roman stuff, I have to either get it online or come visit you and hunt with you.

Fabulous John! What a fun time you will have showing the farmer those beauties!
Thanks Greg. He was over the moon, more stuff to report to the museum!! I’m gonna be kept busy
Another good video. 😃😃. I must ask, is there ever a video where you don't drop something? :🤣🤣
O SCORE !!! What a slammer !!
Thanks 😊

On man a 500 year old silver coin WOW!! That's amazing
,that metal clip looks like what is on the back of my antique picture frame that holds the backing cardboard and glass in place.
Another fantastic video John! I learn so much from your videos as i am a beginner detectorist. Thank you.
I wanted to ask if you or anyone you know have ever found a Queen Anne coin? I know they are rare due to her short reign.
Very nice work john!!
Thanks 😊
Great finds!!!!
Loving your show
That looks like a pretty good field to work, congratulations!
Absolutely beautiful coin. Congratulations
Yay! This video is like the “good ole days” 😂. Can’t wait for fall to get here and follow more of your detecting adventures.
Anyone interested in increasing John’s TH-cam revenue just watch all the ads fully. He’ll get a bigger check ;-)
Nice going John. Lovely Lizzy hammered coin too.
There's plenty more on that permission 😉👍
Great finds! I can only imagine the thrill of finding coins from the 1500 and 1600s. Looking forward to your return visit to this place 👍
The round thing with the hole is part of a pin and ball system for a tractor 3point linkage.
Nice one John!
Thanks Paulie, hopefully more to come from this field and the other 1,000 acres!
Very excited for your very special find, I'm always amazed at your history knowledge...love listening to that....
That's a beauty of a Lizzy. Well done mate!
We do the same thing here across the pond calling the facing heads backwards. Left facing is actually right and vice versa. Don't know why.
Love the clod shots ❤😂 i hold my breath until we see...the Elizabeth hammered is stunning.
I read 168? On the coin at time 15:00. I saw the sun shadow as you were handling the coin.
Also, you might think about adding a magnifier to you kit.
Thanks for sharing another video and congratulations on getting another permission and a silver too
A find like that makes up for those days when all you get is junk! As always another great video whatever you find I always enjoy watching them.
Congratulations on a great new permission. Amazing Elizabeth silver.wonderful video. Thanks so much. Been a while since you had something for the archeologist to ID.😊
Whoa! What an outstanding day you had. All of the Turners were great, but that beautiful hammered silver coin with Queen Elizabeth I was epic.
Well done, John. Please visit that field again soon.
The coin at 27:45 has a capital "A" in the rectangular feature. Maybe a barley tax stamp? Maybe a Mary Queen of Scotts twelve penny?
Excellent stuff buddy. Really pleased that you were rewarded with the spanking Lizzie 1 silver. A terrific find, indeed.! Bless up 👊
Great new permission!!! Always exciting to see you finding super stuff! Surprised you don't find more clay pipe pieces, really. Didn't know clogs were used in Scotland. Goes to show, you do learn something new every day!!🥰🥰🥰
Isn't that barley field the beginnings of that good Scotch Whiskey? Brass is also an alloy of Copper and Zinc. But Brass is primarily copper and tombac is primarily zinc. (with of course that tiny bit of shiny arsenic)
Great finds 😊
As predicted, when John got onto a
Brand new field! Find would come
Lovely Elisabeth 1 sixpence wonder
How many pints of ale, that could buy
A Barrel gongraths 😜🔝❤️
A full barrel I’m reckoning 😂
Great finds
Love this new permission. Looks like lots of fun ahead.
Many thanks, yes it had lots of potential but it’s even better than I anticipated
Nice silver hammered coin! 👍
Fabulous find.
Congratulation on you magnificent QE 1 And thanks for the history lesson. Great stuff.
