@Chill Bill The agate pieces might be from Idar - Oberstein, Germany. The place quit mining in the 1800's, but was mined in Roman times for razors. I'm 65, I quit the dig projects 3 years ago.
😃 WhooHOO! WB, Bill! Back in the saddle again, haha! So good to seeya, really. You always manage to put a 😊 on my face. Glad you're feeling better and out and about finding more treasures. Be well, stay safe, GL, HH, and... Cricket? 😂 I love it. 😏💕
How's our birdie? Lost track of how it turned out but thoroughly enjoyed the inspired work your Mrs and your self have for animals...keep up the good work...your friend in Tombstone AZ..usa
Happy birthday, belated or otherwise. ❤ When you first said that getting back into detectoring, I was thinking "at least you have your health".... but COVID five times! You poor thing. I understand the struggle now. I've not caught COVID yet, as poor health has kept me cloistered since the beginning. So getting out into the fields, walking in nature, having a look around... truly is a gift. I'm 47, but you'd run rings around me fitness wise. I can't do ANY of that. 😂 See it as a positive that you can still get out there and do it. Not a negative that you're not as fit as you were before. ❤
Hi Bill.The stone piece looks worked, and appears to be of mottled chert, which is of course proper material.That is what I refer to as a pocket tool,of many general uses.Kind of like a Swiss army knife.Thankyou for the video.I know how it feels to try to metal detect, or anything else when one does not feel well.The mind might be willing but the body not.Sending the best of cheers, Crack on my friend. Harry.
I can recommend fire cider as a good support tonic. There are a million recipies, but omit what you are allergic to and anything you truly hate, but it makes a great marinade and dressing too. You also can just take a shot of it. Toss it down- its not for sipping.
Always such a treat when we receive a video of you out stomping around and treasure hunting. So much fun being included with your travels, too. I keep hoping the next video will produce a big, perfectly preserved, thick-ass gold coin from a gazillion years ago. Your finds and historic knowledge is thrilling. Please keep posting and searching. Your most significant find is coming. I have faith.
I loved the video and I’m looking forward to the next one. I’m so sorry you have been so sick. I hope your road to full recovery is steady and smooth. I found you through Nicola White and Nugget Noggin. I also loved your video’s of the Formula racing and the tractor racing. Gave me a great smile….
Thank you for sharing. I like your treasure hunts abd stories. I love flints. The first flint looks pretty good to my modest opinion. Not sure about the second. But it's just my opinion.
Really sorry to hear about the COVID. Hope your wife didn't have it as well. And to have it so many times is really terrible. Maybe 5 times is a charm. I had it last year when I was 73. Not fun at all, but am sure it could have been much worse. Happy Birthday, we have missed you. It is great that your cats are doing well. I am giving our cat (Molly) medicine 3 times a day to keep her regular, a problem that geriatric cats have sometimes. She is pretty good about taking it, which is good. Nothing like having a cat who hates the stuff. I am sure you have had many adventures with that sort of thing. We had one who would spit it out as fast as you put it in. Anyway, don't do as I do. Take care of yourself and eat healthy, get plenty of water and sleep. Hope to see you soon.
Happy Birthday to Chill Bill! From another Cricket lover. Short square leg and second slip, middle of the order and off speed bowler...Now we have the Americans utterly confused, we shall abandon them to watch their games of rounders! Just watch out for the Covid whotzits!
Good grief Bill I am 75 years old and have done a lot of detecting over the last 4 years with neuropathy from my feet to my waist and on my arms. Feels like they are on fire. Also a bad back. I struggled through the pain. I had some really good Civil War spots on battlefield land and that kept me going. I have quite a collection of artifacts now. Lately, my back has been so bad I have not been doing any hunting but hope one day to start again. Keep on pushing forward because the alternative is sitting around and is terrible for your health.
jUST A HEADS UP bILL. tHE yOUtUBE ALGORITHM HAS REMOVED YOU FROM MY FEED FOR MONTHS NOW FOR SOME REASON. I WAS BEGINNING TO WONDER WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO ONE OF MY FAVES. GLAD IM BACK AND THAT YOU ARE STILL OUT THERE.
I am sorry you have had covid 5 times. Do you get less sicker the more times you got it? Just curious because here in the USA we have been told your body gets immunity once you have had it and you dont need another vaccine shot. Great seeing you, Smokey and Graypuss today. Looking forward to your next adventure. When are you treasure hunting with Nugget Noggin or Brad Martin of Green Mountain Metal Detecting? See you soon.
COVID is the worst. I've had Zika, malaria, Chikungunya, dengue ,etc. Survived them all. Started a cold today so just waiting to see which way the wind blows.🤣🤣🤣 You find an awful lot of copper coins, I assume not much silver or gold was in circulation in the French provinces over the years.
60 is the new 30? mhmm seems plausible as you are puffing like i was with 30 after spending most of my twenties partying faaar too much... good to see you at the field again
Thanks for another great video! I have to opportunity to go metal detecting in France in a few months. Anyone know if permission from the landowner (the farmer relative we'll be staying with) is enough, or do I need additional permissions from the authorities? Just fields and no protected sites nearby AFAIK.
How did you get it five times? I think I'm immune, I'm Moderna and boosted but I'm a stagehand in California and I've worked around hundreds of people since they let us go back to work and never got sick. Well we are glad you are ok. I watched people playing cricket in India and I was a bit confused, some expats play in a park here actually, mostly Indian dudes.
😃 WhooHOO! WB, Bill! Back in the saddle again, haha! So good to seeya, really. You always manage to put a 😊 on my face. Glad you're feeling better and out and about finding more treasures. Be well, stay safe, GL, HH, and... Cricket? 😂 I love it. 😏💕

Best dressed man on UA-cam back in the fields showing us how it's done!
grinding! 😀

So glad to see you made it through all that. I had covid twice and thats enough for me! "Keep on keepin' on." Fun video.
Thanks! Will do!
60 is not old! Hang in and keep moving. I wish I were 60 again.
👍💪🌶🫶
Glad to see you swinging again! And I hear you about 60+
How's our birdie? Lost track of how it turned out but thoroughly enjoyed the inspired work your Mrs and your self have for animals...keep up the good work...your friend in Tombstone AZ..usa

our cats are mainly young so not to many problems 👍
Good to see you back on the fields Bill, work on the cardio.
Will do
Keeps popping up for me, still not time…..sigh, can’t wait!!

Yes its a big drag! It does it to my fav channels too!

less bad each time, but its a very distinct feeling, like a hangover.
imight have had trouble with this comment but I got it and replied! 😀
happy birthday
Happy early/late Birthday!
Thanks
The little round flint piece is a frost fractured natural piece. Sometimes they worked them into scrapers but I don't think they done it with yours
60 your a kid im 76 so keep on digging.
COVID is the worst. I've had Zika, malaria, Chikungunya, dengue ,etc. Survived them all. Started a cold today so just waiting to see which way the wind blows.🤣🤣🤣 You find an awful lot of copper coins, I assume not much silver or gold was in circulation in the French provinces over the years.
knowing where you are I can understand! I dont want to be able to compare!
60 is the new 30? mhmm seems plausible as you are puffing like i was with 30 after spending most of my twenties partying faaar too much... good to see you at the field again
definately puffing!

generally yes…… in practice yes…. technically nothing is legal without a court order…. code Napoleon…. tact and common sense to max 😀

Ive got lots of Bat genes in my DNA 🙀
Take some vitamin d!
Good idea!
Do you aim to freeze?
:)
Covid 5 times !? Thanks goodness for modern medical science and vaccines ain't........
vacinne kick my butt, but it made the latter cases way less bad. 1st time was nearly my last.
😃 WhooHOO! WB, Bill! Back in the saddle again, haha! So good to seeya, really. You always manage to put a 😊 on my face. Glad you're feeling better and out and about finding more treasures. Be well, stay safe, GL, HH, and... Cricket? 😂 I love it. 😏💕
