Alexander, Tasci would have chased and eaten the flies. What a huge silver, quite a loss back then I would say. Best wishes to you the family and little Tasci.
I suspect it would have been a bit of a loss! And Tasci would have been brilliant; I dont like him eating flies but it solves a problem as i like flies even less! Hope all well Christian and thanks for watching!
I’ve been searching for a crown since finding my C1 half crown 7 years ago (still my favourite hammered) so good luck to you sir. I bet you thought that door knob was one! Thanks Alex for another adventure 👍
Great day out there, Alexander, despite the pesky flies. That half crown is a very welcome find. Thanks for letting us come along with you, and looking forward to the next installment! Hugs to Tasci 🐶
What an amazing coin! 🪙 top 5 on my bucket list Alexander! The shear size is mesmerising they knew how to make stunning coins way back when hope the crown is next for you☺️
Those little buggers flying around and so annoying. It was a dry summer here but not many flys and now it's quite a dry mild winter here as well. Wonderful finds even in poor condition, each with its own history and story to tell. All the best Alexander, I got the notification on time today so that makes me happy. Cheers Arthur 👍
More amazing finds on yet another amazing journey into the past with you, Alexander. That Charles 1st is just WoW!👏 Mandy Manticore and I would love to have a day detecting there with you. No doubts, you have the best metal detecting channel on YT. Keep up the great work! All the best, Lee.
Hi there I have been watching your video's on UA-cam and I think they are fabulous. I'm wondering if it possible you could share your audio settings as I have bought the same machine as your one and can't seem to get it to sound that great..yours sound fantastic kind regards
Thanks Rodney - I don't make many adjustments - full tones always and no discrimination - I lower the audio response as I don't want everyhting to sound like its on the surface! And I keep Reactivity on 2.5 - Good luck with it and All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas Hi there Alex thankyou for replying I'm just wondering how low on the audio and iron volume and discrim level.. also have you set the silencer to 0 and notch off and finally are you running in square or pwn.. kind regards and plz 🙏 make some more fantastic videos as I love ❤️ watching 👀 them. All the best Alex . Ps I hope the next spade full has the gold Roman 😉
Fabulous Charlie half crown Alex! Funny enough I had a lovely silver today , although its 2017 it is a 99.99 pure commemorative $3 coin for Canadas 150th birthday and tomorrow is our 157th 😀
Awesome vid with jealous moment after jealous moment 😂 I personally LOVE the cut halves and quarters. What beautiful geometry and I just love the idea of snipping money into pieces as a solution to lower denominations! That Charles I - what a beast of a coin! Stunning!!! Brilliant vid and your knowledge of the Roman coins is so cool!
That was a Big coin Ally no wonder they made a hole in their pockets and dropped out onto your fields 😂I think the coins of old were much more decorative than today's designs , well done Ally ! XxxShaz 🎉🐴🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰
@@HolzHammerSagas Everything fine here Ally..Merlin hides his Bonio's in my flower planters ..or on the glass shelves under the tv ,digs holes in the lawn, prefers to drink water out of the watering can lol we love him to bits 😀 💗💗💗
Love your vid's Alexanda, but please when you show a close up on the field please keep it still so we can see it, I sometimes feel like I've done a summersault trying to view it.
That Halfcrown is magnificent, nicely done indeed. If those flies are trying to keep you off the fields, give 'Skin So Soft' spray from Avon a go. It's so effective as a bug deterrent, the S.A.S use it. 👍
Hi Alexander. I am with you in regard to the Rome commemoratives, I have three (one from Lyon, one from Siscia and one without a clear mint mark) and they are some of my favourite coins among all the ancients that I have. It is also interesting to note the slight differences in the depiction of the wolf and twins from the different mints. I have five of the Constantinople ones and while they are a fine design, I think the wolf and twins are more evocative because they hark back to the beginnings of Rome's rise to greatness. The image on the coins portrays the wolf very differently to the famous statue in the Capitoline Museum. Great weather and yet another successful day on the pasture, with a nice range of finds, rounded off with that magnificent hammered half crown. Enjoy the rest of the summer. PS I know you were annoyed by the flies but in that regard you should be thankful that you aren't here in Australia, as we have to have fly screens on all the windows and doors. On a hot day they come in droves and they seem to be becoming immune to fly sprays and the personal insect repellents.
Thanks John and yes, I too have noticed a big difference in the various wolves appearing on my coins.. Hope all well with you! Flies don't tend to be a big problem over here generally but i think a mixture of sudden heat and lack of their usual horse flesh meant they went for me! Thanks as always for the knowledge and All the Best!
Hi Alex, I always look forward to a new video from you! What a great coin, I didn't know such a big one existed. Next week I'm leaving for England again, first to Cornwall and then to the Cotswold to see if there's anything to be found.
Another fun clip! That Charles half crown is absolutely fabulous! Congrats on that one! You ROCk as usual! 114 here on Friday!!! UGH! Have a graet week my friend and thanks again for a great video!
Alex try using skin so soft by Avon to repel the flies. When I used to hunt in the water in lakes in the states flies were a problem and skin so soft helped repel mosquitoes and flies. Great video as always, stay well. Al,NJ,USA
Loved the horses!! I have found doors knobs just like that one over here several times!! Very nice large coin and the Romans were nice too!! Hope you are doing good. Has cooled off some a bit this evening...has been very hot here!! Take care Alexander!!
Nice clip !! How’s the eBay thing , been watching 😊 As a watcher of your channel , always wondered what I’d have to do in Devon to find something amazing as it’s very quiet. Well next months treasure hunting magazine is where my dream came true 👍. All the best Andy 😊
wow, congrats on such a magnificent half crown, amazing finds as always, the little star shaped object is very nice too. got a feeling you will find a gold hammered very soon, good luck , thanks for sharing.
Nice one young man Nice finds and silver. Ps I had found a small 22kt gold ring on one of Cornwall beaches Yet again another great video keep them coming from St Breward Cornwall 😊
Lovely stuff Alex, an' that 1/2 crown = amAZing eh?... 🙏 Quick 'Pro-Tip' if you don't mind matey: (Your HQ shots of Spink Pages etc.) - Try to keep the camera steady if poss. ie. Don't try to simulate the head/eyes whipping across the page to look for a coin pic. It's ok to have a little natural 'fluidity' of movement - but any 'moves' across the page shoould be slooooow and steady really. Hope you don't mind, and that makes sense?... Take care then matey - and thanks 🥰 for the fantastic content as ever! Bobby 🐭
@@HolzHammerSagas Hey 🙏 pleasure Alex... Yeah - I've got an exciting new Deus 2 Program! - but the weather awful/inconsistent atm... Will keep going tho'... 💪 😄
@@HolzHammerSagas all good this end cheers have you ever thought about doin a raffle and the prize is a day detecting with you. Your land is awesome and as i use the master to i coukd do with some tips lol 👍👍👍
Those flies are ridiculous!!! So glad we don't get them that bad here. The half crown is amazing! What a yummy coin to hold in your hand. That field just gave up all manner of treasures. All those tiny Romans! We have had a nasty heat wave, and now waiting to see how bad that hurricane is going to be. I have not been hit in a few years in the Hills, but my sister lives near the coast. She was going to come up for the holiday weekend, but needs to be home preparing instead. I guess tomorrow we see how much is left of Jamaica.
Wow Alexander, what a day! That silver 2/6 was amazing! In the intro there was a massive tree behind you (Oak)? Wonder how old that is? BTW, congrats on hitting 8K subs. All the best, John.
I use a few different techniques Barry, depending on the condition - less is more generally! Hope all well and thanks for watching! All the Best, Alexander
Thanks Danny, I think (and hope) you are right... i have a couple of fields that have also been heavily detected for decades and i still find stuff but they are now spookily quiet of everything and one find in 4 hours is not uncommon! Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
You remind me of my uncle, who brought me up from a small boy, he too was a well spoken, kind gentleman.what machine are you using? And in which area of England please?
Hi Allan - your uncle sounds wonderful! I am mainly detecting in East Anglia and I use a Deus 2 Lite having used a Deus 1 Lite for many years both are fabulous machines! Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
Hi, thankyou for the reply, I have a garrett approach, I'm looking at the new garrett storm.would love to detect in East anglia, I'm in Yorkshire and have never found a hammered or roman coin.i live in hope
I'd rather have 20 flies buzzing around that don't bite, than just the one that does. I remember being fortunate enough to live on a stunningly beautiful, unspoilt island, that very few tourists knew about, no electricity at night etc, and sitting down having one of many long conversations with an excellent local artist. He was explaining that visitors complain bitterly about the sandflies, which were bloody ruthless and in abundance, and said they want all of this beauty that nature provides, but despise, and complain about, other parts of the nature that surrounds them. They expect to go somewhere where only the beautiful parts of nature exist, they don't realise that when nature thrives, it all thrives, good and bad. He said they don't realise that they're the only ones out of place in nature, despite being fortunate enough to be the only creature in nature that isn't lower than something else in the food chain. And as if on que, a sea eagle swooped down in our view and rose with a lizard in its talons. I wouldn't let a few harmless flies put you off such beautiful pasture land 😉😊
Thanks Martin i enjoyed reading that and completely understand the point your wise friend makes and it certainly makes one think! I still dont really like metal detecting and trying to concentrate a bit and make some sort of sense when talking to the camera and trying to film, when flies are zipping up your nose and down your throat! Not the same if you are living somewhere but I was fortunate enough to have the choice to leave and come back again when hostlile insectry is less active! Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas Haha, fair enough mate 😊 You can master the flies, if you can master the horses. Otherwise a wee blowtorch could work, and blast the pesky blighters to smithereens in your vicinity. A less complicated and not so dangerous and more manageable option could be one of those small rechargeable fly repelling gadgets clipped onto your belt 😉 Happy hunting
You're becoming braver around the horses Alexander. Won't be long youll throw yourself aboard and dash madly for the distance horizons.
Wow. What finds today. Bravo.

I'd rather have 20 flies buzzing around that don't bite, than just the one that does.
I remember being fortunate enough to live on a stunningly beautiful, unspoilt island, that very few tourists knew about, no electricity at night etc, and sitting down having one of many long conversations with an excellent local artist.
He was explaining that visitors complain bitterly about the sandflies, which were bloody ruthless and in abundance, and said they want all of this beauty that nature provides, but despise, and complain about, other parts of the nature that surrounds them.
They expect to go somewhere where only the beautiful parts of nature exist, they don't realise that when nature thrives, it all thrives, good and bad.
He said they don't realise that they're the only ones out of place in nature, despite being fortunate enough to be the only creature in nature that isn't lower than something else in the food chain. And as if on que, a sea eagle swooped down in our view and rose with a lizard in its talons.
I wouldn't let a few harmless flies put you off such beautiful pasture land 😉😊
Thanks Martin i enjoyed reading that and completely understand the point your wise friend makes and it certainly makes one think! I still dont really like metal detecting and trying to concentrate a bit and make some sort of sense when talking to the camera and trying to film, when flies are zipping up your nose and down your throat! Not the same if you are living somewhere but I was fortunate enough to have the choice to leave and come back again when hostlile insectry is less active! Hope all well and All the Best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas Haha, fair enough mate 😊
You can master the flies, if you can master the horses. Otherwise a wee blowtorch could work, and blast the pesky blighters to smithereens in your vicinity.
A less complicated and not so dangerous and more manageable option could be one of those small rechargeable fly repelling gadgets clipped onto your belt 😉
Happy hunting
🍀🍀🍀
