Detecting The French Castle Fields

- Join me on an adventure romp and exploration of a plowed field in Europe. I find several cool coins on this hunt and in my final wrap-up, show my best finds from the last several days detecting. Come for the handsome lad in the red shirt and stay for the MASSIVE silver coin he found. It's a Henry VI of England Anglo-Gallic Silver Grand Blanc which dates from 1433-1444!

you and Lindsay are the type of people that i wish were my parents/grandparents. i just want to eat breakfast with yall. a good ole family that love each other.
Thank you so much for your few words at the end of your video Beau, it was my pleasure!
Once again, congrats for this amazing silver coin!
As we say in french : c'est une superbe trouvaille!
Aurelien and I were very glad and excited to meet you, and Mister Clem of course. ;)
Don't hesitate to contact us if you come back in France and keep up the great work.
Keep in touch,
Brice
It's crazy to think that those same fields have been around so long!
Glad to see you find something besides bullets and shells!!!
could u take photos of ur stuff cleaned and with a description ,and edit them into the vid (right after u find it)
👍🏻
Wow, coins from the 1400's; that is extraordinary!
Really enjoy your videos, in particular your instructions... Thank you for taking the time!
Great video and some good finds. Thanks for the trip to France and every other place that you have taken us to.
As you said fella, you never know what your going to unearth, this is what keeps me detecting.
It's probably a lot of fun detecting for coins in Britain. They have the potential to be much older than the ones buried in the states are.
+StephenAndrew777 Oh, I guess you were in France. haha
My dad lives in France on a farm, I love bleeping but I was warned by locals to get a written statement from the land owner as the police will stop you because you are not allowed to dig for or remove artefacts from France.
The usual excuse is looking for lost keys etc. Consequently I have only hunted once in and around that area.
Good luck and keep the videos going.
Think you may possibly have found a Roman era Clavo, or decorative nail. They came in many different configurations, and were in common use up until Medieval times. Imagine the large headed nails that stud a Castle gate, or the smaller ones that adorn many a Church door throughout Europe. Just a guess.
Its almost weird to se you digging on a fiield and not in the water :P Concrats on the silver hammered, awesome find!
My dad once told me that when he was stationned in Germany in the 80s one of his friends was digging in a german dude's backyard to eventually build a porch and he found a complete set of plates and all kinds of different ceramic artifact (all unbroken) and they probably dated back to the 1700s and they were really ornate. He told me that one of them had a scene of a hunt imprinted on it and it was very beautiful.
+Aquachigger Yep with a bit of luck you can find almost anything.
+Vince Pelcat The only thing I have found, in front of my house was a human hip bone. But my neighbor was less fortunate, with 16 skeletons in the backyard. Our houses are built, on top of an old cemetery and no one has apparently dug them out before constructed started. The most interesting was that, the murderer of the city's mayor from fifteen hundred was found. She had been beheaded, and head placed between the legs.
+TheBingbang69 There is a legend where I live that speaks of a boy being buried next to a rock on the side of a road. Nobody ever dug to see but it's the kind of legend that is probably true. Apparently the boy died of an illness back in the 1800s and the family buried him next to that rock because they were poor.
And I thought the WW1 bullets I found were old....thanks for sharing
Lol, well compared to me finding scrap metal and pennies, your finds are kinda amazing.
What a marvelous coin! A real stunner! 😍👌
Boy, that Clem sure gets around. I've saw him in the U.S. too.
Great finds! I found my first civil war bullet in Pa two days ago. Thanks for the lessons!
Enjoying your adventure thanks for sharing
Thank you Beau and big credit to Bryce for making this happen... he seems to be a terrific bloke :)
+ellabayforever Thanks for your nice words Ellabayforever, I appreciate!
Brice from France ;)
+Horus' hill Credit where credit is due ...thank you again Brice and my apologies for misspelling your name...your kindness is appreciated by everyone who has seen these videos I'm sure and not just myself... Cheers ...Russ from Australia
As chill Bill would say "ya gotta dig it all, ya gotta dig it alllllll" lol
Love your vids as always man, thanks!!!! It's so different to see you on dry land!
I'd say you got a nice assortment there. Sometimes the junk is interesting too.
Nice one Beau! Good work.
Thanks for the videos
good stuff man ! thanks for sharing
very good condition that napo3 coin!
silver coins!!
nice job Beau good finds
Some cool finds. That old silver is sweet.
Today I also took my wife to dig. She loved it! ))) This is a good thing. Good luck to you, friends!
She now asks me to buy her a detector! ))) It may buy. With the first pension. Ah-ha-ha! Long she will wait. Although if I find the treasure, you must buy her a detector! )))
***** ))) yeah! ;-)
wow, what incredible coins, your videos are quite entertaining keep up the good work and thanks for sharing this with us
Coin with holes in it are Kroner's from Denmark. You might get some if you have to change planes in Copenhagen and need to buy stuff at the airport.
Cool! Nice big silver coin!
Boil the dirty coins in Vaseline/petroleum jelly, they'll fizz a lot at first and when the fizzing cedes take them out. It'll do wonders on caked copper, and won't kill the patina. Scratch lightly with a wooden stoker
Beautiful coins
those are great finds! , I like the hammered coin,1400s thats old,,, are there not as many people digging holes looking for treasure in London. or is it nothing gets by the Chigg....p.s just received the "Can you Chigg it" shirt.....sweet came with sticker. thanks
Hello, The french silver coin is Blanc aux écus Henri VI de Lancastre - Hammered at Paris in 1422. 399/1000 silver
Greetings from France !
Great finds and exploring. God Bless
Nice to see and well done. :)
very cool finds, I wished we could find things like this over here lol
Nice finds Beau!
Frenchman: "My button popped off. I better pick it up, and sew it back on."
American: "My button popped off. I better get a new shirt."
amazing the stuff you find across the pond such history : )
Making me wanna get out and do this!!!
Good hunt 👍
I saw your video on coin cleaning and when you said "when I get home and clean the coins" me being a coin collector I cringed but good finds and keep up the good work
awesome!
magnifique.....
I think the coin you found at 3:09 is from the Netherland Indies I have a 1 cent from there that's similar, mine from 1942 btw
Super!
Nice finds!
Is there any chance that you could show us how to clean those coins or your other finds? Make some kind of video about it, might be interesting. Great video's on your channel sir, thanks for the content!
that piece of iron at the 2:23 point may fit into the top of an anvil
Nice haul
I would much of rather have found that 1430's to 1440's coin, than the gold one that you and Chill Bill did together. Also glad to see you and Deep Digger Dan finally got together. You, Chill Bill and Dan couldn't have been three of the most different types of metal detectorist's put together. Deep digger dan is funny on video, you must have just been dying inside seeing him do that in person. Oh, by the way I found out that, no one go's mud larking in the Thames river itself because they have to get a special permit for that. Don't know why Chill Bill didn't tell you that; however, it did most definitely put you in your element, cudo's on that.
i love watching your videos. i think it'd be fun to metal detect!
Would love to join you on one of these hunts, should be great to have some company around during searching for nice things!
Great video, nice silver coin man
Did you hear Beau?! The Lochness Monster was in Thames recently. Google it!
belle sortie jolies monnaies
amitiée de France
great video, keep it up!
Great video
Bryce! You the man! Haha great vid Aqua
Some nice coins. Thought you might turn up a Roman coin.
Hi Beau! Did you find out what the iron spike was? I would guess a lug (traction) off a wooden wheel implement. 57
WOW!!!!
I enjoy detecting but I can't really decipher the signals and metals, lol I dig what I hear
The Batzinato had a good question asking" Do you have to have any kind of special permission to take your finds home from other countries?" I was also curious about that too, along with that, do you have to do some sort of declaration when transporting your metal detectors and equipment? Could you do a video on that process? Thanks
muito bom.. curtindo seus vídeos aqui do Brazil
Love your tour videos! Running your detector on the hot side I see. Beau, can you explain about running hot and does that go for all detectors? Especially my Explorer2 and Excalibur. HH/GL
+john harvey Your previous video on Cleaning Coppers..what not to do was awesome and the best video to date! I myself would love to see another made on cleaning all the coins or at least some of them from your vacation with Chill Bill. Keep up what you do and thanks for all the hard work in doing so for all of us bro!
That weird spike iron thing in the beginning could it be like an anvil attachment?
+Dylan Hopper That is my thoughts as well. Looks like it could be some type of bottom tool for an anvil's hardy hole.
Thought I was watching nugget noggin for a min ha
the second thing you fount the spike thing was from an anvil you put it in the cut out square and cut metal like that
You prob know, but You can buy Wind Breakers for the Camera, it's a small Furry Sticker, usually round , that cover Your Camera Mic,and mar the Wind Noise a lot...
Dan Solo True you can, but im pretty sure he uses an action/waterproof camera and relies on its internal mic. So no hotshoe for an external mic so therefore no ability to mount a windscreen.
Nice video
How do coins end up in a plowed field, anyway? That always puzzles me. Was it not plowed when they were dropped, or did those that worked the land carry their coins with them to work?
I live in a French village and my father law is the village architect. He was constantly involved in projects where farmers randomly discovered Roman pillars and all the crap you can imagine. Like my girlfriend grandmas house has a nearly 2000 year old Merovingian tomb just laying in her front porch. With that in mind I am absolutely not surprised he found coins. I kind of want to buy a metal detector just to search through her farm. XD
I had that question until 2 days ago when my husband and I got home. While searching for the house key, he accidentally dropped a 1 cent coin. We were both like “meh” and neither of us kneeled to pick it up. That answered all my questions.
Watch any of the videos from Time Team and you’ll quickly learn why!
At 2:26 that's a hobnail from a giant's shoe. Probably 18th century.
Hooligan!
Nice video :)
Cool. Napoleon. I have a few, but are very common. Still, 1800's can't complain. How do you get old silver out of France? What are the rules?
nice
Since you film outside all the time you should get one of those furry windscreen things to put over the mic on your camera. They work pretty well.
That spike is very likely a tooth from some sort of plow.
Hey Beau, Are you going to upload a video of your best finds of 2016?
When i watch u start digging i always fear u gonna break the treasure in half xd
nice French coins,
*Привет из России! Мы понемногу начинаем искать!*
Holy cow how hot are you running that T2? Sounds like my F75 when its driving me nuts!
I wonder if there is and busted sewer pipes in the stream that he will drink from
Lol
Did you lol your own comment?
+Ed Darby I think he might of just been saying that to make sure people knew was joking
do you have to turn those coins into the gov't ? what are the french laws on that? great videos from your trip.
are you posting a video of the coins cleaned up?
I've been in france a week ago
16 and can't afford a metal detector wish I could experience in the excitement of a unearthing something that hasn't been seen or touched in years
+Aquachigger thank you ! good luck on the next hunt can't wait to watch
I think the coin was a Kroner
Where's the music at the end of the video in the credits? I always listened to it ha
+Aquachigger I'm really glad I found your channel you remind me of my grandfather I like all the awesome adventures you go on and your pets are really amazing my cat and dogs HATE eachother a lot
are those hedge rows lining the fields?
The coin with the eagle on the back could be a german coin...
When was it made?
J'habite à Illinois!
Hi beau
Which brand do you think is better teknetics,garrett or minelab?
