I really liked how you framed the value of those early 20th century coins as "pints of beer". That really makes the value understandable. And yes, that was a great loss!
Many thanks Mark. Glad to hear you enjoyed….. 10 pints of beer 🍻 😮 I feel terrible for the loser!!
One of the most refreshing things about watching his videos. A man who knows the proper currency exchange rates and monetary values. ;)
I watch a lot of detectorist on you tube but yours is bar far the best,the way you describe your finds and the history of what you find makes it very interesting and good to watch.
I have an xp orx but want to upgrade to a deus 2.
Great work pal.
New coil brought good luck. I don't think 20k subs by April is gonna be any problem at all. I bet you have them by the end of the week. As long as you are digging Roman coins, people are gonna sign up. Plus, you know what you're digging and are very good at relating the history without going on about it. IMO, you're the best metal detecting channel out there right now. Keep swingin'. Cheers.
Thanks for the kind words Callie and I’m really glad you are enjoying the video. Thanks for taking the time to write such a lovely message
4 silvers in one day is always a great day, and two of them are from Roman times. You set a high bar to reach. I see you are already at 19K subscribers, so 20K is just around the corner. Congratulations
Fantastic finds! Any time you recover silver is awesome but my goodness 4 in one trip is fantastic! Nearly 2000 year old coins blows my mind! Thank you for bringing us along and letting us discover right along with you. Much appreciated!
Wasn't sure at first if the decision to add some face time at the start of your videos has any benefit, but you were right to do so. It adds to our familiarity with you. John can't honestly say "ugly mug" anymore because we see it isn't true. Rather, it proves you aren't a robot or a made-up character from dime store novels. The real flesh and bones help us understand the challenges you guys (and occasionally gals) tackle each time out. Thank you, the Scottish Detectorist(s), for always keeping it fun and interesting.
Forty percent of Hadrian's Wall was originally built of turf and timber. The Western section was the turf and timber part. This Western section was then rebuilt in stone as late as Septimus Severus's reign and became known as "the narrow wall" as it is substantially narrower than the original eastern stone section.
You are indeed 100% correct! Many thanks Lanarkish
Found your videos recently and subscribed right away. I really like how you impart all this knowledge and don’t rush us through. A joy to watch, lm hooked !! Thank you John and hope you feel better soon.
Thanks for the kind words Jane. Many thanks and welcome to the channel!! Much appreciated
It's a window latch I also find loads of them
Amazing 🤩 day with all your coins!! Hopefully the bit of fresh air and some silver was just what you needed to feel a little better.
Some stunning finds,absolute quality.👍👌💥
What a great hunt, your at 19.3 so you may be close to 30 by April. You deserve every single one of them. You've done your history homework and it's paying off. The stuff you dig is amazing but to learn the history behind it is priceless. Keep up the beep, good luck and happy hunting
Thanks for the kind words Jason. Many thanks and best wishes. Thanks for the support
What a fantastic day you had, John. Well done on the pocket spill as well as the spectacular Roman silver coins. That new coil has been a huge plus!
Btw, please get some Musinex for your congestion. I don't want to see you get worse, bloody hell, digging in those fields in the cold isn't beneficial to your health....but thanks for doing it.
Thanks James. Still getting better, and trying not to overdo it!
Out today and we got GOLD and Roman silver 🤩 video just uploaded 😯
Great video John. Quadruple silver including two Roman silvers... what a cracking day. 👏
Hope you're rid of your cold soon mate
Thanks Gary. Quite the day but my god we’ve just topped it! GOLD And Roman silver 🤩
@@thescottishdetectorist Oh my DAYS 😯 Can't wait to see that one!!! 😄 🤩
@@garysmith1178 enjoy! As usual someone else gets the gold! I’m teaching these guys too well!
I have to say, you are a natural presenter. You wouldn't sound or look out of place narrating a documentary on TV.
Awww thanks 😊 that’s really kind of you. I’m
Glad you enjoyed and hopefully see you on the next dig!
Great finds, hope your feeling better and can’t wait to watch you snag some more silver.
Gold and silver today!! Video just uploaded! Many thanks, getting better all the time!
Hell of a hunt John!!! The new coil seems to be working well!!! 👍👍👍
Early days Ray but I was out with again today in a stubbley broccoli 🥦 field and the bigger coil was great at dealing with the heavy stumps sticking up!
wow...now that's the way to dig up silvers...very well done...your absolutely killing it, all the signs are there for a pot with the rest of the hoard in it...the two Edward 7's would be enough for me...but then 2 denarii's...so the only possible way it could get better is to find the broken pot containing the rest of the silver...oh...and under them Gold Roman coins...i said it first !...very well done again...all the best GL&HH Gordon.
I'd have been really happy with that lot. Even though you're feeling cold & rubbish, it was a rewarding day. Good stuff buddy. Bless up 👊
Great day! Enjoy and hope you get to feeling better soon.
Many thanks Brian. I’m in the mend thankfully!
Really enjoy your channel. History major in college so especially enjoy your knowledgeable commentary.
Looks like your new coil is paying off!!! Nice haul today🥰🥰🥰
Many thanks. Yes, so far so good!!
Yes, but hundreds of years from now detectorists will squeal with delight "OMG, look, I found a tractor part"!!! Weeeeee!
Well done again John..👍
Thanks Stevie
13 inch coil smashing it!! Well done another great video as always John thanks for sharing
Excellent stuff my friend. I enjoyed that detecting session. I hope you are feeling better soon. I suffer from asthma and your weeze was making me a bit anxious! 🤣👍😉
Great fun. Thanks for sharing your adventures in the fields of Perthshire
I love how you equated monetary value of coins to pints of beer back in the day in this video. That's a hardship going to the pub empty-handed. Och!
Good on ya John, Wahoo!! still keeping us all well entertained with your finds. A smart move getting the larger coil which as we know will help find any deeper targets.
Thanks Neville! Out today and we got GOLD and Roman silver 🤩 video just uploaded 😯
Looks like another great hunt, a great bunch of older and newer coins 🪙 Hope there's a pot of coins out there somewhere 😁 HH and take care 🙂
Well found two more silver romans and two milled coins found with the Deus 2 a great detector on ploughed land. Len
Many thanks Len. Deus 2 LOVES silver and small targets too!! Amazing machine and so light
No stopping you,just now John Amazing finds once again .every one thoroughly deserved,them Roman coins just keep coming brilliant.
Every time you drop an item I take a shot. Keep it up butter fingers !!
Haha 😂 that’s a lot of shots 🤣
Out today and we got GOLD and Roman silver 🤩 video just uploaded 😯
Omg, such little respect for valuable old metal that scratches VERY easy. But that nothing because you are talking to the camera now, thank you much for that my friend.
Maximum respect for everything I find. Always treated with kid gloves 🧤
It’s amazing the great shape these coins are, being that there so old. Great finds!
Thanks Sharon much appreciated
And hopefully more to come in August once the harvest starts
What a cool person you are. Love watching and listening to you. Thanks for sharing your adventure with me.
Thanks for the kind words. I’m glad you’re enjoying
@@thescottishdetectorist 👍
Oooh lucky you. For this much silver found this seems to be a “golden” coil.
Readable Roman silver with recognisable portrait like it was struck just a little while ago never quits to amaze me.
Congratulations John! Your channel needs some go fast striping too.
Many thanks Wolfie! Much appreciated. A really excellent days digging!
@@thescottishdetectorist Thank you.
Another great video and great finds first two silvers was brilliant then two roman silvers brilliant
Thanks Bobby. Glad you enjoyed
Another trip back in time..
Super
Much appreciated
That's a super day of metal detecting right there
Thanks Eric

I really enjoy your posts. Always educational. Here in Australia we find nothing older than the occasional Chinese coin from maybe the 1700's. Will be in the UK later this year...I want a Roman!! Thanks again, great stuff!
Many thanks Paul. Glad you enjoy! Fingers crossed 🤞 for your first Roman!!
Awesome finds! That new coil is good luck, can't wait to see more!
Fingers crossed. Had another great day with it today! Video to follow in a few days 🤩
Love the intros and the content. You are so fortunate to have such rich fields near by and that you can share your adventures. So interesting what you can find in a current farm field.
Thanks James. Glad you are enjoying the videos. We’ve got some great fields and permissions and today was even better…
Out today and we got GOLD and Roman silver 🤩 video just uploaded 😯
OMG. chirpy signals abound, what a haul, 4 silvers and 2 other notable coins. Great day. Hope your cold gets better soon, take care and have a good week.
Great find buddy what a great start to the video well done 👍👍👍👍👍
Always cheer for you when you find something interesting! ❤ from 🇨🇦
Thanks Dili. Wait until you see the new video!!

I love your videos, mate! Have you ever considered a video showing your collection, or a selection of?
He has a wee whiley back, am sure if you go in his videos you'll see a collection of coins he's found!
@@jerettdawson8312 ahhh, massive! I’ll give em a look over! Thanks!
Many thanks. Glad to hear it! I’ve done a few ‘best of 2021’ and ‘best of 2022’ compilations in the past if you look back to November/Dec of those years, but another to come in the future!
Great finds , always nice to see dirty Bertie ... keep the hunt up for the Roman pot... or fragments of it .. 😅
What a cracking day! Love everything Roman 😊
Amen!! Love a bit of Roman silver
Hi John ,the scatter of silver Romans is "intriguing". I would respectfully suggest you have a lab test carried out on the Verdigris to find out whether Its Copper or Brass ( If you haven't already ) .IF not 💭. Great vid many thanks 🤞👍 Phil
I will check it out if I can thanks!
Another super day. Keep on hunting.
I'm jeal!! It has been months and I didn't find ANY silver jet😅 Love to watch You digging and your's brilliant narrative❤
Lovely find John - take care of yourself
Many thanks!! Getting better all the time!
Wonderfully haul that my friend
Can’t knock four silvers in a day!! I’d have been delighted if I’d only got the two killed never mind the two denarii !!
Congratulations on your silvers! 🎉😃
Many thanks Andrea. A great days hunting!!
Exciting finds Romans 3 Bertie 2 and a “pesky” button as Cleggy would say!
Haha 😂 a great day!! Much appreciated
Loving the continued hunt, and know a deadline ahead on the roman fields...but be careful with your health too! We would all feel guilty if it gets worse
Many thanks. Glad to report I’m on the mend!! Best wishes
Social blade say's your going to hit 20,000 by this time next week 😳 and 30,000 by May 😲 60,000 by Christmas!!!
Mr Clegg
Gleggy you're the special one! Thankey for
The recommendation to John. Feeling
A bit overtaken now?🤣🙄
@@tonilauge5786 I know a Epic channel when I see one. That's why I only give shout-out's to channels I think are going to make it!
@@cleggthehoardhunter Yes I thought the same last year Cleggy😉
@@Flint-I I know exactly why John has flown past me, he finds EPIC stuff and hopfully soon I'll start finding epic stuff with my new hoard hunter and I'll fly back past him 😂
@@cleggthehoardhunter Hi Cleggy . I am convinced you will 💯👍
Great day on the field👍😎🌴
Your really struggling with you breathing today John . Get yourself indoors in the warm and get better my lovely xxxx
Outstanding finds you really are Digginthedream. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Many thanks!! I certainly am!!
Fantastic finds , new coil paying off. Get well soon and find those gloves.
Many thanks Bev! Gloves 🧤 now found and ready for action!! Thanks
Outstanding John. You may find the larger coil also has greater sensitivity in normal depths. Good luck
I would say you are right already Don. Certainly seems that way to me
Jeepers! The field of dreams!!
This is my first time watching your channel. I must say I enjoy your humor and your accent, although I'm told I have one as well. My ex-husband metal detected as a hobby. Unfortunately, he saved every blasted metal thing he dug up and store them all in glass jars. Why? I don't have a clue. Those stupid jars traveled with us each and every time we changed military posts. He would find lots of jewelry under water in Hawaii as swimmers would lose their rings due to tissue shrinkage of their fingers. That was the upside of his hobby. Take care of yourself. Julie from Central Texas, USA.
Thanks Julie and welcome to the channel. My house is full to the brim with tin cans, lead, bits of copper. You name it I’ve got it so I feel your pain!! Boxes of stuff everywhere 😂
It was an amazing video from start to finish,and some amazing finds but please be very careful when cleaning lead with the white dust,it can make you seriously ill mate if inhaled,causing dizziness,feeling sick and in high doses even worse.lead carbonate is seriously bad if inhaled so spray with water on all lead items.
Thanks for the update Doppleganger. I should definitely be more careful! Many thanks
Brilliant informative , interesting, thanks as usual
I have heard it said the buckle pins were iron because they would bend rather than break when the strap was snagged, the pin coming under the most stress.
I made myself finish my “to do” list to qualify for my reward - watching this video. Well worth it - thanks!! 💜
That field just keeps delivering.
Amen!!! Hopefully more to come!!
Great finds congrats!
Thanks Janet! See you in the next
I'm not sure that you are correct about Hadrian's Wall being entirely built of stone. It ran behind a house I lived in near Burgh by Sands but was not visible at all. I was told that this was because that section had been built from turf.
You are indeed correct Nick! The western end was originally turf and timber then upgraded to stone later! Many thanks
Another great hunt !
Many thanks. Today even better!! GOLD and Roman silver 🤩 videos just uploaded
@@thescottishdetectorist I just got in . Can't wait to see it !
Omg you are right canny with your finds!
Wonderful video as always. Cheers.
Many thanks Nick. Glad you enjoyed!
Brilliant work you legend John! Congrats mate on how well you're doing. Those Edwards are amazing so quickly in but the Romans are astounding. No wonder nearly 20K subs - you deserve it - great content for us all. Hoping for another necessary visit to the museum - it's got to be a hoard by now or there were a lot of very careless Roman centurions in your neck o' the woods!
Many thanks as ever Andy for the kind words!!
Out today and we got GOLD and Roman silver 🤩 video just uploaded 😯
You have yourself some tea and honey and stay dry! Thank you for all the circles you make in those fields looking for treasures so we can hear your stories on your finds!
Many thanks Teresa. I’m on the mend thankfully!! Best wishes
Another good dig John loving the silvers , hopefully more on the next one 👍
Stunning finds, video and your knowledge of history John. Well done again Sir.
Many thanks John. See you on the next!!
Amazing finds. Congrats
Many thanks Dennis
Hé John the pinn from a buckel was iron because they could bent it.
Brons or copper alloy will break
I knew there was a reason!! Thanks Jan
Your ratio of coins to other finds is really remarkable. Half of your relevant finds were coins in this video. Who does that….in a plowed field no less? Amazing. So even if today was exceptional in that regard , for sure you are consistently finding old coins in well hunted fields. People had to be emptying their pockets for you…..lol….like leaving some wealth for posterity! 10 pence by one fellow, agree with you on such a hideous loss of beer! But Where is the cutlery, the knives , horse tack, the ammo? I know you find these items also, but the ratio is all off. God bless you my man, I hope the detector gods continue to smile on you.
Thanks Kevin, you are right though you are getting a very skewed representation of what I find versus what I find that’s good!
From time to time I post a ‘here’s everything I find’ video that shows you how much trash we do get and trust me, there’s lots! Today I did five hours and had over 80 dug targets of which it think 5 were ‘good’
This field is about 300 acres. In the old days an acre was what one man could plough in a day with 8 oxen 🐂
So it would take 30 days to plough once a year. Let’s say the farmer dropped 1 coin and 2 buttons during that 30 days he’d lose 1 coin and two buttons a year. In 100 years that’s 100 coins and 200 buttons lost.
500 years of farming that’s 500 coins and 1,000 buttons lost, and that doesn’t account for the dozens or even hundreds of workers that would be in that field at harvest time.
So basically there’s lots of coins and buttons out there let alone all the other stuff! 😆
@@thescottishdetectorist I see the math makes reasonable sense for your coin and button finds. Some detectorists show their bucket of junk at the end of their videos, so it is understandable when for each bucket of junk a small handful of “good “ finds result. Since you show the occasional piece of junk I was assuming you were showing most of the junk . Obviously you are not if you dug 80 targets.
@@kevinallen9009 I figure not everyone wants to see me dig 75 bits of junk and 5 good things but I think I should do another ‘here’s everything’ video or as you say show the junk pile at the end? Many thanks
@@thescottishdetectorist hey John, make no mistake I was not doubting your ethics whatsoever, if you were thinking that could be a thought from your subscribers. By the way I wanted to mention I’m sure all your viewers appreciate your excellent ability to identify the Roman coinage and history . It makes it so interesting.
Thank you. Great video.
What a day, some ace finds. Great stuff 👍
Glad you enjoyed, see you on the next dig!
A bonus day to keep you going after the ring pull and lead blob days.
Another amazing day out swinging....I so wish we had history that old but sadly our finds detecting at the oldest are early 1700s...but I do find eyes only finds that are 8 to 10,000 years old.
Thanks Dave. It gets better….

"What a horrific loss"🤣😂🤣
Great Great 👌👌 Roman coins are always good 🔥🔥🇬🇧🇺🇸
Amen Greg! Great to get silver Roman!!
As to the buckle's tongue being iron, it was far less likely to bend and cause embarrassment/problems. 😊
Congratulations on 19.3K🎊🎉
Many thanks 🚀 I just can’t believe it really. It’ll surely go pop 💥 eventually, this growth can’t keep up surely !!

Great finds today. The hoard is just waiting for you to find it.
Thanks Emily!

Another fantastic video. Full of fact and knowledge. I've just found my first Antonius. Your luck has rubbed off on me. I can't find four silvers in one day tho. Fun fact with all your knowledge do you know what Deus means in Latin. I only found out today. I'm probably the only one who didn't know. I've used Deus for six years.🐝
Thanks Waspius. Glad you enjoyed. And we’ll done on the Roman silver, hopefully more to come for you!!
Deus - God! And in my hand it’s like a wand! In sneaky Petes hand he’s like a god….

Omg what an amazing day and absolutely incredible silver finds - Lucky you and what a great field! That had to make you feel better and hope you do 👏👏👏👏 👍
Fantastic finds 😮 wow, good luck!
Much appreciated it was a really fantastic days digging
I think we all know which coil you'll be using a lot more of these days coming up 😉 Brilliant day John!
Many thanks Erin!

Great finds again John, i bet Albert, Martin, sneaky Pete, Lexy the wonder dog all kick themselves when they can't attend, and you pull up the Roman silvers.
It’s a tough job but someone’s gotta do it Chris 😂 the joys of me being self employed and them being contracted is that I can often go when they can’t! Which is such a shame for them 😆
Thanks for watching!
morning john
Morning Alan! Enjoy the video!!
ho i will been waiting lol
2 out of 3 ain't bad. Which would you prefer to forget ? Toothbrush, spray bottle or gloves!
Haha 😂 well what am I like!
Get well soon matey
Thanks Terri.
Not as young as I used to be but thankfully getting better now!
That field is just amazing !
