    Lovely little Mizpah locket! My pal Google has this to say: 'Mizpah jewellery was popular during the Victorian era from the mid- to late-1800s and was generally given to a loved one during a period of long separation such as military service or travel. It was generally given as a "forget-me-not," and symbolised a bond of love between two people...'❤

    Glad to hear that there is a dig named in honour of Michael Hare. Michael was a friend of mine, who sadly took his own life last year, he was kind enough to have given two lovely coins, which he had just found on his last outing, they were just a G V florin and a G IV schilling, but I 've got them pride of place in my album. RIP Michael.

    When I was in high school, my first boyfriend gave me a Mizpah. It was a coin with that same wording, intentionally "broken" to symbolize distance. Although we married others and raised families, I have kept mine as a sweet memory of young love. I really do enjoy all your videos!

    Thanks for taking us along on another dig. The locket is very nice, and though the Turner is pretty toasty, it was identifiable. I use both the tones and the numbers on my digs, as sometimes the tone is better than the readout, but we all have our own little ways. Cheers from Texas. I think the drone will have to be proven out for a while.

    The silver streak continues! Nice MIZPAH. That drone would help with the large fields that you have permissions on. Run the drone over the field and then overlay the grid on your maps. Might find a path leading from a structure to something not listed on your map. But it would save you alot of time as you could concentrate on the part of the field with highest concentration of targets.

    Enjoyed as usual with your historical knowledge and great finds The thoughts of using a drone took me back about 25 years ago when i used to come back to England to do a series of Rallies in Essex called Noble Rallies where i met an Australien who worked for a mining company in Australia he would go with his team of detectorists to the outback and the moment they found an area of gold they would call in the mining company who would excavate the area so I think this drone will be replacing him and his team in the future . Incidently he had a full attaché case of gold crystals and nuggets with him which he was trying to sell (i had never heard of gold crystals before but they were spectaculer)

    John, you're getting to an age where you need to get yourself a little jewelers loupe to carry with you so you can see the tiny writing! Ask me how I know... I carry one in my tool pouch and keep one hanging from my rear view mirror in the truck. They come in real handy for reading dates on toasty coins and silver and gold marks too. Good video as usual, very neat little locket, not sure what the little rectangular silver might go to, maybe something like a tiny pill or snuff box, but it's interesting. That sci-fi style detecting drone is also interesting, but there's a down side to having something located 100' deep. I don't know about you, but I'm probably not digging that up. Did that say it locates metallic and non-metallic objects? That's different. Anyway, good video, thanks for sharing your day with us! Sue

    Drone Rover looks interesting. You’d still have to dig it up, but it might be good to zero in on productive areas. I’d love to see you try it out if they’d loan you one to review. You will have to go back to the bull field and the roman field. Heck, just make sure you get it long enough to fly it over all your fields 😆

      It could be great for surveying for hot spots couldn’t it, over time I’m sure the technology will improve!! And it’ll only get bettet

      Thanks Mike. Made by a great guy called Les but unfortunately he’s not making any at the moment but if that changes I’ll let you know

    You might start checking those ring pulls before tossing them out. Watched detectorists here in the US yesterday, and they were saying companies are now making silver and gold ring pulls to wear as jewelry on a chain.

    A month or so ago you were bemoaning the fact you would only have one or two permissions to detect because the others were being planted.
    Seems it was good luck, the lack of other fields kept you on this one with plenty of silver and brooches and coins.
    The carrot field has been very good to you. 😃

      I know Dan. It just shows you, the farming gods shined on me. The carrots got harvested and I’ve even got some pasture unexpectedly too which I’ve actually not yet even needed to use because these carrot 🥕 fields have been immense and I’ve barely scratched the surface yet!! Good place to be!

    I think the legend on the locket probably reads: "...when we are absent from one another" but some of the words have been reordered. It looks hand-engraved so my assumption is that the maker thought he had it all sussed, then realised he'd missed out the word 'one' and had to squeeze it in in the wrong place. It might be why it was chucked out 🤷‍♂️

    Johillco. J Hill & Company were manufacturers of children’s toys, usually military. What you have is a piece of a Roman chariot. A full one would be very rare and valuable .

    Trying to catch up on video's today after a trying week. Looks like nothing but rain tomorrow after raining all night. I want that. Well, I am supposed to have a week of light rains. I wonder how Jackrabbits and Hares compare? Looks like Jacks have longer legs and are very lean.

    The mizpah was popular with young girls and their best friends in the 6os. A half of a heat was kept on a chain by each friend to remind eachother of their special friendship.

    The drone rover would be good for locating IEDs or land mines in a post-war zone, perhaps.

    Not a fan of the drone idea. I will stick to leg work. It is my time to block out the rest of the world and destress, the finds are a bonus. Great video as always.
