    Great finds! One of your best episodes I’ve seen far, I think. The ring looks very Art Deco to me, probably from the 1920’s or ‘30’s.

    That big musket type ball may well be from what they started using in around the 1740's called cannisters, which was basically like a big baked bean tin filled with those balls, shoved in a cannon and fired, it was like a huge shotgun shell peppering the enemy. The Government forces used those against the Jacobites at the battle of Culloden in 1746 up here in the Highlands of Scotland which is about the time they started using them. Great finds well done. 👍🏻👍🏻 I'd be well pleased with half or even a quarter of that. That Roman Constantine is a beaut 👍🏻

      Thank you so much for that information mate, thats just the kind of thing I had in mind, and definitely too big to be a musket ball.

    For me, pigeons dropping heavy on ripe corn 'rings my bell'; start of another season not far distant. Soil is bliss, 'til rain starts to....hiss😉. That Const' bronze is a Praetorian commemorative coin Dan. There is the un-mistakeable depiction of the 'Castra Praetoria' on it's reverse. Keep tight hold of it, they aren't overly common mate, especially in fine condition. It' a flippin' beaut, for certain!!! Nice fib and ring too! Well found and rescued 👍👍

    My uncle told me a story…
    Back in’t 80’s him and a pal went detecting. He was swinging the detector and his pal was on digging duty.
    They kept getting fantastic signals but they never found anything when digging (back then there wasn’t any pinpointer) anyway, he went home for tea and his dad asked if he found owt so he told him the story..
    His dad said, “was you wearing those boots lad🥾🥾”
    He said “yea why?”
    “They’re steel toes lad!” 😂😆🤣

    What a cracking day Dan. Reploughing a field
    Give a usually new life to a field this was
    Ekstraordinært good. Fibula is roman
    Inspired type. In Denmark we called the
    Time period younger German iron age
    500-800 ad saxxon came to England
    From Holsten part of Denmark until
    1864. So it could be a saxxon find.
    Romans closed down earlier in England
    But theres a time slip. Really nice Tudor
    Buckel, pity the ring is mended, should
    Be easy for a Silver expert to fix Gongrats
    To 3K about time😜🔝❤️

      Hey John mate. I have to say, I've not managed to find an example like it, and its very unusual for a roman brooch which is why I initially though saxon cruciform 🤔. Think I've still for some research to do on that one, if not I'll have to email my FLO and see what she says.

      @DiggerDanMetalDetecting  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for commenting mate, I have found that my cultivated settings are pretty good all round on arable land. I just tweak the recovery Speed up and down depending on the conditions. Maybe in stubble, I would raise the recovery speed to 6 or 7 just because you aren't covering as much ground and that would help to hit the targets a little sharper 👍.

      My gold half sovereigns were both a solid 29. The gold celtic stater was a 38/39 👍.

      I haven't tried it yet mate. I've not bought it because the land I detect is very busy and full of iron from roman activity. I think it would struggle with the separation of targets if I'm honest, which is why I went with the narrower LG30 👍.
