⭐️Thanks for watching Mudlovers👍🏻🐾🧡 If you enjoy ‘curious’ objects. Check out this video for giggles th-cam.com/video/q5jUzC0ajN8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rx3fBL1g7JT29Sg_
If that cylindrical object you found is a dense carbon then it could be from a carbon arc lamp. Either a WWII searchlight or same era cinema projector. I have an unused one from a Westrex Vintage 35mm film projector I got from an old cinema projection box in London in the 70s. Slightly different shape towards the top but the same diameter.
The beach meetup sounds really great, unfortunately it would be quite a trip from my home in Sugar Hill, Georgia, USA, so I'll just have to wait until you post it on your you tube channel. I used to have a cheap metal detector and had a lot of fun with it anyway but I loaned it to a neighbor who was trying to find something he lost and it was never returned. Is there any chance you might sell some of these after the meetup? I don't need anything fancy, just one that works. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Looking forward to many more. Lee
The phonetic alphabet piece looks like a label that was placed inside radio transmitter boxes, in the lid. Around WW2 era.
Si...why show your find on that dirty dusty record player and record?
Ug.. Could you either please clean it up and at least make it look better.
@@XNYer68 Wow! Someone got up on the wrong side of the bed 😂 and no I’ll do what I want
@ 8:05 I've seen something like that before! My mom has one like it. I found it once in her bottom drawer of her dresser when I was helping her put away the laundry. She said it was something that she uses when she exercises to relieve stress.
Bet she does
@@williamprice6318Ooooh errrrh, missus!
Lol
I can confirm she still uses it.
My father was a British soldier in WW2 he served as a radio man in tanks , I have an original phonetic alphabet card that was issued to him . Also I have so many British war medals from his service & my grand father who served in WW1... thought I'd throw that in their way proud of him he passed 5 years ago aged 94. Great episode Is maybe my favourite
That’s very sweet. We shall remember them 🌹
Very cool DIFFERENT finds. Loved the stories behind all of them.
My respec yo You Mr Father is HERO .....From BOGOTÁ
God Bless you Father and Grand father, absolute hero’s who served to protect Briton 🙏🏻🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
My Great Grandfather was one of the first Tankers of WW1 he had medals but unfortunately they ' disappeared ' when my Nana passed away many years ago,my Uncle decided a lot of possessions were his 🤷♂️.
My Grandfather was in the Airborne during WW2 and he actually threw his Medals into the Tyne in Newcastle after the War,the only Medal he kept was a Medal given to him by a German Officer he treated ( he was told not to treat the Nazi by some American Officer but Grandad treated him as a Human ).
Grandad would only say one thing about WW2 and that was the Russians were worse than the Germans.
My Dad was in the RAF.
I served myself with the British Army.
Grew up in Sawston near Duxford and as a collective village we always honoured all of the services and all of those who served and gave up their lives for the rest of the World.
I have tried to instill in my children the same level of respect for the Military and those fallen comrades.
Sadly it would seem many people don’t share in this regard anymore
I like how you explain each item as you discover them rather than summarizing at the end.
I agree..I love them for that
The mar 1800 is a stamp they used in making sheathing on warships or the copper sheathing in the magazine room. I found it on the corners of the sheathing on shipwrecks I dive. I have one here that read- war dept march 1794. They stamped every sheet on its corner to stop pilfering in the ship yard. Every project/ship that was worked on had its own dated stamp. Yours could be simply a test stamp.
That’s great to know. If you have a link to something online please share. Or tweet a photo you have and tag me. Appreciate that mate. Thanks
@@SifindsI don’t do tweeting. I can Facebook or email an image
I have found the Woolwich stamp on a piece of hull sheathing I found while metal detecting in Jersey.
HMS Severn wrecked on my local beach in 1804. The sheathing stamp is from 1803
lots of my finds were in a museum for 15 years then the gave me it all back. Now most of it is sold @user-zd9xf9bm2h
Gigi was such a treat! I thing she was today's best treasure (though I sure loved that blue White's bottle, too!)
She was!
It was so beautiful the way she gifted Simon with her precious find and then found something even better. That's karma at work
The 'pirate' coins are very interesting and always stand out because of the way they are made. I actually have found a 'Piece of Eight' which is a large silver coin made the same way. Very uneven thickness and chopped irregularly into something vaguely coin shaped and then stamped with a very random but complex design. Straight from the Colombian silver mines and shipped back to Europe in a galleon. I found it in a quiet valley in the back of beyond in rural Normandie, France. It is 50 miles south of the port of Le Havre and 40 south of Honfleur so speculate that is how it landed in France back in the 17th century. There is nthing that beats pirate treasure for stirring the imagination!
Well said. And cool find. Congrats
So cool that she gave that coin to you ! So many people love your energy and the effort you make in making mudlarking fun and educational.
Si, I love that even you a young man, you have such respect and reverence for those who've gone before.
Yes, we get taught well here, plus my grandparents were both involved in WW2
The age of the thimble amazed me . Lovely video. Really interesting range of finds.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
The W Mar 1800 is a stamp for copper hull sheathing.
W is for Woolwich and yes, Mar 1800 is the date.
I found one on a piece of sheathing on my local beach, marked W Aug 1803. It's from HMS Severn, which wrecked here in 1804.
There is a gent called John Bingeman who is an authority on copper sheathing who would want to know of your find.
The copper square tag accompanied the copper sheets used to line the walls of they warship's magazine. The sheets of copper covering the walls was to keep powder stored in a sparkfree environment.
The S in the mud larkers alphabet has to be Si and the N has to be Nicola. Thanks for all the wonderful finds and history.
Aw cheers Joellen 👍🏻🐾🧡
@@Sifinds Luck for L and Mud for M of course.
@@airenesmiler6624 of course 👍🏻🐾🧡
F for fossil. C for clam or charm. I for Ink pot. T for tide/tidal.
And B for Bartman
although you are not incorrect,with your choice(which I forgot😅)
Believe it or not,I actually kind of knew what that odd phallic object was.
I said to myself,’ if that is made from carbon,it’s an arc rod’
But I have never seen one that size.
They are used in arc welding,too,the exact same concept,I recognized it from the arc welders where I work.
Wow an Elizabeth I coin! And a Pirate coin! She really has the luck. Cold and rainy here today as well. Yesterday was 80 F degrees , now barely 50. It's the damp that chills to the bone. Going to make hot chocolate. Cheers Si.❤

Well done
Super day Si ‼️ So nice of Gigi to give you the coin. Swapping treasures with friends. Good to see Nicola with you. Thanks for the day out. 🎃
Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
So glad to see you, Si, and Nicola mudlarking today on the Thames foreshore. Fantastic finds. So impressed by the 15th century thimble, the rare joint monarch 17th century coin, the floodlight tube and the trade bead. Astonishing to me being from Canada. Wonderful day. Thanks so much.
Cheers Suzy!👍🏻🐾🧡
Great finds! Love the info about the dots on the thimble to date it!!! Always learning on your channel!!🥰🥰🥰
Nice find on the search light rod. We used smaller ones back in the day for spotlights for concerts.
Ah that’s interesting. Cheers
Concerts - now that is cool in itself! ❤ that!
Concerts - now that is cool in itself! ❤ that!
So many older and wonderful finds, The pirate cob was amazing but there is something very special about that thimble as well. I have a fondness for those small functional items like thimbles and buttons.
Yes, they are much more personal than a coin, if only they could speak!
@@Sifindsas a seamstress I just love them.
Awesome video, love all the historical information! Great finds!
Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Same as Nicola, I used to get Blackjacks and Fruit Salad chews ! They were 8 for a penny, and 4 for a halfpenny ! As kids we were glad to find dropped pennies on the streets because it meant sweeties ! Nobody would bother picking up a penny today of course.
Fruit salads yes, black jacks yuck
In the 50s it was four for an old Penny and you could buy a single one for a farthing!
@@Sifindstotally agree Si!
Black Licorice has always been one of my favorite candies. My sister Joyce would trade her banana pieces for my black licorice. She loved them so much. Problem it made our teeth gray and always had to brush our teeth .
As a kid of the 50's and 60's, there was no spare change in our house and so I always watched the ground for any spare change and was very happy to find a penny....now in Canada we don't use the penny anymore and it makes me kind of sad, I would certainly pick one up if I saw one today....5 of them make a nickel and ten make a dime LOL
What a great video!! It was so interesting!! Really appreciate you taking the time to reseach the items you find!Thank you Si !!
My pleasure. Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Lovely to see you down on the Thames again . What a find for the Elizabeth I coin , amazing condition . Always a pleasure to watch on a Sunday afternoon !
I know incredible luck👍🏻🐾🧡Cheers Elaine
I love how happy you are in every clip of this video 🥰
Well done Gigi for her incredible finds! 🤯 I’d pee my pants if I ever found coins like those!
I’m in my happy place…
@@Sifinds take me next time please xx
I came across this video completely by accident, but I’ll definitely watch you again! You had some awesome finds, and I appreciated all the history you provided. Thank you for such an interesting half hour.
I live across the pond. We don’t have your history, so an afternoon of mud larking here, is very boring, in comparison.
@@jtb8155 thanks for watching!! Enjoy the back catalogue 👍🏻🐾🧡
I've found a Spanish cob while metal detecting in Long Island NY back in 2021,I was thoroughly shocked 😃
Wow. Lucky you
@@Sifindshow long can it take for the Museum of London people to get back to you about the finds you submit?
Super interesting to know how those Spanish coins were made. I would have assumed it had been clipped.
Cool isn’t it
The orange bead is fab, hope you make something cool with it. 😻 Also, my congrats on winning, and my condolences to Mandy Garfitt on the loss of her kitty Max. 😿
That's very sweet of you
My 6 year old son Sam watches yours and Nicola's channels every day, he has started mudlarkng and can date pipes quite accurately now. Thank you for igniting his interest in history, he hopes you come up to Yorkshire to mudlark with him. Thank you Si
What a clever little fellow. He sounds like he’s on his way to becoming a very interesting adult having had this early start to historical finds. What a go-getter! Lucky You and little boy! 😊🦘🇦🇺
If you find a good Mudlarking spot, I’ll definitely come up!
Best of luck finding a good spot so your son gets a big thrill & great memory!
Thanks for the lovely Sunday mudlarking video. Always so much fun to see what you all find. The Spanish Cobb and the Elizabeth I coins were fantastic finds. So much luck in the muck.
Cheers Beth!👍🏻🐾🧡
That Pirate Cobb was AMAZING.
Well, when I saw that divot on the end of the carbon rod, I was instantly sure it was an arc-electrode, because that exact shape developed on the electrodes in an Electric Arc Furnace.
But I didn't know they had an electric arc on searchlights in WW2. That must have been an eerie noise to add to the AA-fire and bombs .
Agreed. Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Soooo many layers of history... sooo interesting. Loving the excitement, explanations, friendships, everything. I enjoyed this video so much ❤❤❤❤
Gigi's giggles are the best.
Love Nicola❤
Cheers Mudlover!! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Gigi is a bit of a good luck charm for finds Si. A bit of pirate silver and an Liz I coin! The light rod was an amazing find as well. Great luck in the muck! 😍
She was! Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Yay! Si is having a meet up!! Please have one next time you come to Canada, Si - I have my metal detector all ready to go!
You’re on Cory👍🏻🐾🧡
@@Sifinds Fantastic! (Si’s next trip to Canada: 2040, lol).
@@SifindsI’m hoping you made videos you’re going to share while you were here in Canada?
@@cyndicunanan400 I did. My recent shorts were shot in Canada, I thought you would’ve spotted them
@@Sifinds the shorts I saw, yes, but I want a full length treasure hunt one #greedy 😁
Great finds again today. Lovely to hear the history of them too. Thanks 😊
Cheers J👍🏻🐾🧡
Love that search light Rod, great pice of history, so many cool finds fab episode Si
Cheers Iain👍🏻🐾🧡
the thimble is really special. amazing it survived so well. usually mudlarkers find them rather smashed flat. thanx
On fire today Si what amazing finds some real history coming out today ,far better than my efforts on my local river the Calder in west Yorkshire,I do have some luck in the muck but sadly mostly broken pottery and glass, the odd clay marble,a hobby I have definitely acquired by watching yourself and Mrs White ,and I love it so thanks for my many years of excellent viewing and the laughter along the way ❤
Another wonderful video with Nicola and your friend Si ! It’s always nice to watch as you come across some Roman coins and such. If it wasn’t being found by mud larkers that enjoy what they do, there is no telling if anything would be found. It’s so amazing to see and hear about all of the History from the finds. Have a fantastic week ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
We learn more about England and Europe in every video you make! Enjoyable, cheeky and interesting!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
No way I love that Medieval Thimbal Si way cool..also love the trade bead..and Nics blue bottle is to die for!💜
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Bonjour je suis française et je vous regarde depuis des années j'adore ce que vous faites vous êtes vraiment sympa j'ai 71 ans je suis une femme et une fan je vous embrasse à bientôt
Bonjour!! Merci Mudlover 😊🐾🧡
That 26:30 is very similar to the clasps used on overshoes or galoshes. It has been decades since I've seen a pair. The ones I have seen had about five rectangular holes but were also on men's overshoes. This may be from a lady's shoe. It could even be from a rubberized rain jacket which may have used this type of clasps. Ok, never mind, I see you found it!
Cheers TB
yes! Thank you, I knew I'd seen them before... when I was a kid my raincoat had them instead of snaps or a zipper.
Congrats on finding the Roman coin. The coolest thing was the spotlight rod. Amazing thing to learn about. Enjoy your day Si.
Cheers Eileen! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Now I know what pieces of eight means.....Awesome find Gigi xxx
Good one.. that thimble was beautiful. Always good to see you and Nicola larking together, it’s the comfort of old friends.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Glad I went back to watch first half of video, as joined premiere late, what some amazing finds, the thimble was lovely and in such good condition for its age. Loved the Spanish coin you exchanged a musket ball for and the finds kept on coming, thank you
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
That 6 pence was absolute gem quality, if you get it NGC certified it could sell for a significant amount.
So excited to seethe huge cache of snail shells. I collect them and could image finding so many in one spot!
Carbon arc lights were used in movie projectors as well. Low tech very bright light, slightly different color temperature to xenon lights used more recently. The projectors had (or have, those that haven't been modernized for some reason) an auto feed mechanism to compensate for electrode erosion.
Love a good mudlarking video,the phenetic plaque was very cool.
Cheers Chris. Yeah was an unexpected bonus!!
The crossed keys on the pipe bowl are possibly the weapon of the Dutch city of Leiden.
Way to go Gabby!! I will live vicariously through you mudlarking the foreshore of the River Thames with Simon!! I’m such a fan!!
Cheers Diana👍🏻🐾🧡
Yes you should, I was at the Australian War Memorial doing a tour of one of their annexes (where they keep the stuff not on display at the main site) and talking with the guide, he said one of the most precious finds is the "ephemera" the everyday stuff that just got chucked away, bus tickets, ration book pages, confectionery wrappers or your burnt out searchlight terminal, these relics evoke the moment in time and personalise it and give it an immediacy that no statue, however beautiful, can achieve.
great finds gigi was very lucky and she gave it to you, lovely. thank you
Lucky me! Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
What a lovely coin! Good for her! ❤
It really is!

Cheers Kelly👍🏻🐾🧡
I am so loving your Vlogs.
I love how you tell us straight away what the item looks like when you clean it up and I do research what the item might be. I am learning so much.
I am also enjoying where are you actually recycle items as well
I never knew phonetic was different.
I am really enjoying all the hard you do in research the items you find thank so much you .
Take care stay safe
Cheers Betty👍🏻🐾🧡
How amazing is your knowledge! You seem to find history the most innocuous, humble little items, & share that with us. I'm just loving watching & learning from you
Cheers Margaret! 👍🏻🐾🧡
I havent watched one of your videos in a couple of years. Your editing and research after each find is fantastic. Now to watch everything youve posted that i havent seen yet.
Neat finds - lucky Gigi and lucky you for finding such a super coin. Hope Poppy the Dog is doing well. Here's to MORE Luck in the Muck!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Thank you Si for this video. Amazing finds and friendships. Take care and cheers.
Cheers LS! 👍🏻🐾🧡
This episode was full of gems and wonderful to watch and learn. Thanks Si.👍👍😉
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Really enjoyed the video Si. That Liz 1 hammy was one of the best I've seen. Cheers M8, John.
Me as well! Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Gorgeous medieval thimble!
Lovely finds Si and Nicola -love it when you both do a video together!
Am thinking that you could be correct on the date on the copper stamped Broad Arrow W Mar 1800 find but maybe the W is for Woolwich?
“Oh my muffs gonna get in the way” I couldn’t stop laughing!! You too work so well together!
lol cheers Rachel
Another fine video today. Always enjoy to watch. Some fantastic finds today. Enjoy the week ahead, Si! And see you on the next! 🇬🇧🙂👍🇺🇸
Cheers Martin👍🏻🐾🧡
Hola dupla encantadora ,pero que grandes hallazgos,increíble además todo el conocimiento he información que entregan ,muy buen video mis encantos❤👏👏👏👏🥰.Bendiciones para todos ustedes
Awesome finds! I too remember buying sweets with ha'pennies - was most put out when you could no longer get two sweets for a penny lol.
Haha. I remember it too
This was a grand lark and a well-done video. That clog latch was a total surprise.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Wow what great finds in this mudlark Si. The thimble, Elizabeth 1 sixpence, and the Cob my faves. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of all things old and interesting. 😊
Cheers Alison👍🏻🐾🧡
Some awsome finds love the lives great to talk to you & Nichola and everyone else. Shame about the coin not being gold, but what a find thanks for taking us along
Cheers guys. I’ll get a gold coin one day!👍🏻🐾🧡
@Sifinds fingers crossed 🤞 on my wish list did find a whole denture pallet of gold lol but a coin would be awsome
Cov & Roth No.2 possibly the cap to a screw-down greaser. You'd fill the cap with grease, screw it back on the base portion and every now and then screw it on a little further. As it was wound downward the grease was displaced and pushed through a hole in the base section to lubricate a bearing, or similar. NO.2 refers to the size.
That Elizabethan coin is AWESOME! I was an Elizabethan Re-enactor (in Southern California) from 1980-2002!
Beyond the W&M was a blue cats eye marble!
Ooh I’ll have to go back and check
I saw it as well. I didn't mention it as I didn't want to break Simon's heart. 😲😟😢😍

Was für unglaublich schöne und geschichtliche Funde 👍👍👍
Pipe with crossed keys ,probably a Dutch pipe from the city of leiden
Ah that’s interesting thanks!
Great video that Roman probably hade a gold wash I have a Roman silver with a silver wash over the top which you can see wearing away, and loved Nicola talking about blackjack sweets for half a pence as they were my favourite sweet as a kid 😜😀
I like when you summarize at the end so I can see Nellie and Daisy!
21:38 that's the top part of a number 2 size grease cup from a steam engine or very early machinery plain bearings before grease nipples were invented, unfortunately yours is badly damaged. It is a hollow cup which you fill with grease, it is then screwed onto the fitting which is on the bearing that needs greasing, every so often you give the cup a turn or two turns or whatever is needed to force grease into the bearing, when the cup reaches the bottom of its thread you unscrew it, fill it with grease again and screw it back on to start the process over again, I have a vintage Saunderson model G tractor made in 1919 and it has these Rotherham's of Coventry no 2 grease cups on it. Great videos you make and very very interesting finds.
I often think about how many of the coins everyone finds would make lovely pendants or rings.
Yes in silver clasps
In the US, when you go to a tourist attraction, there are machines that will crush a penny with the impression of the attraction. Disneyland, for example. I make charm bracelets out of the ones i have collected as well as the ones i find in junk stores
Found a 6pince on a beach under a cobweb, weirdest thing ever as the sea had come up past the point i had found it many many times... i kept it for years until my mum stole it and sold it. Not forgiven her for that but that coin started my collection that I still have today. Just wish i had the 6pince.
Such a pity the Elizabethan coin was ''all scratched up'' !!!! ffs, I would have been o'the moon!!! Great fun, thank you Simon.
Haha, 500 years in the soil is gonna do that
I enjoyed this soooo much! You have wonderful talent!
Thank you so much!
🤩 one of your best mudlark! The Spanish coin is wonderful but I really like the thimble. So moving
Great compliation of Thames visits. I can't decide if the Elizabeth 1st coin or trade bead is my favourite find. Both on my Mudlarking bucket list. 😂 Being the bead hoarder that I am, the bead probably wins. I recognised what it was right off from the glass colours, opacity, and bead hole diameter. Either one of those, or a roman glass bead would be my ultimate finds. ❤
And, as a writer, I accept your mudlarking phonetic alphabet challenge, but will have to send it to you later. May bug you on jnsty with it, if you really want?
So many amazing finds!
Yes! Please bug me, haha
@@Sifinds I've had to send you a "chat invite" on insty before I can send the silly little alphabet image I made.
The OD on the 261 toking, stands for Ordnance Department!✌🏻🇺🇸
Another great video,really amazing what you find. Love the William& Mary coin ❤
@@annfahy2589 cheers Ann 👍🏻🐾🧡
You went to New York and you never came to visit me ❤❤❤😂😂😂
I keep saying you bring good luck to any newbies you take out larking! Upon seeing the phonetic plate, it reminded me of a viewer of mine telling me that monkey nuts are what they call peanuts and that I was feeding monkey nuts to the turkeys and deer! Thanks again for a fun time on the Thames!
P for "Pipes"!
T for "Thames"
G for "Garnet"
Cheers Si! Your videos are always a highlight of my day no matter how darkened they become.
My pleasure. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Awesome video with great finds from everyone. What a great idea for the beach detecting. Take care and thanks for sharing 👏🙏❤️
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Your so lucky to have all the history in your area it's cool to see the difference in things you find compared to what we find In the U.S.A..I really dig your videos!
that phonetic alphabet tag is awesome!
OD probably equals "ordnance department".
such an awesome array of awesomeness!
congrats mandy!!!! my condolences for the loss of your furbaby.
The Rotherhams Brass piece is a grease cup for an automobile.
What a fantastic variety of finds.
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
LOL - Monkey Nuts is hilarious. I ‘m sure there was a lot of snickering among the Allies when the RAF had to spell something out with M-N.
This was a great video for the variety of the finds.
Wonder what prompted thimble manufacturer(s) to switch the direction of the holes in the 16th century?
Anything to keep morale high!
Snigger
22:06. That grooving on the cap is called “knurling”. I figured it’s a fair trade for my new word I learned for the day: “alleygob”. 😂
Interesting cheers Matt
