Hello, I stumbled upon your channel via watching the Queen of all Mudlarks... Ms. Nicola White... I'm an American of Welsh/English/Scottish ancestry and an anglophile... and very intrigued by the history of the British Isles, so metal detecting channels in the UK are of special interest... your video's are cracking good! I subbed. Cheers.
Thanks Dean, much appreciated! And i really do know how lucky we are here metal detecting finds-wise; the British Isles is particularly good ...seems you have a good smattering of UK bloodlines! Thanks for subbing I hope i can provide you some good footage for next year happy christmas and all the rest!
A great video to end the year on Alexander, shame about the phone, but i think you are right to try and forget about it Have you checked down the sides of your car seats, and in the wells in your boot?...small phones can hide anywhere I lost my iphone once and found it a few weeks later inside a bundle of ironing that the wife had done with some sheets and pillow cases Thanks again for the shout outs, i make a tally later and also mtach johns offer of throwing the next video in too for The Detecting Hub mentions You are forewarned haha Have a great Christmas fella, oh and hope Taski gets better soon.....the cone of shame, my dogs knocks everything over when he wore one!! Cheers bruce and family
Do you know, i was giving the old merc ( 298,000 miles!!!) its annual clean when I take EVERYTHING out of it and give it a proper going over everywhere and when i still couldn't find it! i knew that was that! I dont really want to find it now as i cant do anything with what i had filmed that day and i need really to save up for a nice new camera hem hem if you are worried about what you should get me for Christmas!!! Thanks for all the support Bruce and have a very good Christmas too!!!!!
Ha! Do you think?! I often feel sorry for the detectorists of the future when i dig up manky pound coins etc!!! Thanks for watching Grassy as always much appreciated!
just love your videos been digging for near on 40 years and have experienced all the things that happen in your vids great takes me back all the years ive enjoyed so much...wonderful.
Thank you for another fantastic video, it has cheered me up no end on a rainy miserable day down here in East Devon. What an absolutely lovely Sceat too, I would imagine that has made your Christmas👏👏👍
Wow, what a fascinating first video of yours I have watched. You are incredibly engaging with your delivery & obviously put in many hours of effort to create them. I thoroughly enjoyed this, and your finds are worldly! Thanks for sharing, Marcus
Sad about the camera. The newspaper article you did was cool. You make me so envious as you always find incredible things. Great to see how appreciated your channel is
Congratulations on the scent! It’s lovely! Very nice condition Jetton too! Shame about the lost footage but at least you didn’t lose all the artefacts! Get well soon tasci!
Ha! The Lampshade!!! Horrible things aren't they?! Amanda, thank you very much for all your support the last year and have a very Merry Christmas! All the Best, Alexander
Top video all ways injoy catching your videos would like to say thank you for all the support that you have given me over the last year relly has meant a lot looking forward to the new year happy new year and see you at the next 👍
Wow fantastic finds again. That sceat what amazing condition. Particularly liked the jewellery. Hope Tasci isn't encumbered for too long. Merry Christmas to you and look forward to another year of fabulous finds. All the best your viewers from down under at Wilson's promontory🎅
you had a great day. get some days not much then suddenly get a day like you just had. what makes this hobby so exciting. sorry to hear about your camera all that hard work lost. but hope you have a great year. 🙂👍
Do you know I had a couple of carrots in the field they were so sweet much more so than what you get in the shops - what do they do to them in between field and supermarket?! Thanks for watching Chris Happy Christmas!
Wow that sceat is just pefect! What a great way to end a fantastic year's detecting. Thanks for all the entertainment and Merry Christmas to both of you!
What amazing little coins they are - definitely the highlight of my year!!! And so unexpected but isn't that always the way?/!! Thanks for all your support the last year Stefan, and I hope you have a very happy Christmas - All the Best, Alexander
If it was an iPhone you can do a ‘find my iPhone’ on your laptop or another iPhone. It might show you where it last gave a signal. I lost my iPhone once and used the golf clubs computer to find its location. It was in my car. Its black rubber case was sticking it vertically onto the lining under the back seats. The other trick is to field walk the whole field and area and retrace your steps meticulously. Good luck Holz.
Thanks Old Plucker - it had no SIM Card in it so sadly couldn't do that... never mind I'll wait and see if Father Christmas brings me a new camera! Hope all well and thank you for watching! happy Christmas!
Thanks Bc much appreciated - I think making the trip would be worth it if you want to find earlier stuff! All the Best and hope you ahve a good New Year!
@@HolzHammerSagas thanks and the best of 2022 to you as well. We hunt ag fields here in Louisiana and a tip to make muddy sticky boots less sticky is to put an old pair of socks over you rubbers and mud will barely adhere. It is a rabbit hunting trick in those kinds of fields when I was a kid. Give it a try.
Very interesting 👌 I enjoy watching this sorta thing Must have been alot of people with holes in their pockets over the centuries or lost coin purses, anyway really like the show.
I have often thought about holes in pockets and how it might explain why we find tiny mediaeval coinage! Hope all well with you Robbie, and thank you very much for watching - All the best, Alexander
What a year you've had, chap! Pity the lost camera phone added a bit of a sour note at the end but you have to be pleased with all that you've unearthed. It's been great to see your channel grow but with your delivery and personable nature it was always going to happen and long may that continue. Hope the new year proves as successful for you as this one was. Merry Xmas to you and yours, chap👍
John I hope we all have a brilliant 2022! I had my booster yesterday my arm is agony gone was the bedside manner pathetic men like me need with injections; I don't think the bruiser who dealt me mine had ever handled a needle before i stepped in i think he was a pneumatic driller before he was drafted.... Hope all well, and I hope you have a very happy Christmas and thank you again for all your support the last year! Onwards and Upwards Old Bean!
Thanks Roly I'm really pleased you have liked the videos - it was definitely a good year finds wise but then every year gets better I think we just get better at finding stuff - long may it continue! All the Best, Alexander
Great finds. If memory serves me Vespasianus (the Muleteer) became Emperor in 70 AD. It's said he healed a blind man (or some other permanent affliction) which was proof, he was chosen by the gods. Wonderful finds. Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to you & Tasci. Oh Fluff Fluff has returned to my grandchildrens house. He raced out the door, & leapt into their mom's vehicle, vet surprising given his diminutive stature. (Sort of miss his constant vigilance around here. I'm certain the feral cats plans have been foiled as well). Gil
Ha! Sorry Fluff fluff has escaoed! when ever i think about feral cats I see the paw swooping through Snoopy's kennel!!!!! Dont know much about Vespasian but I think he restored some kind of order after the chaos of Nero and the Year of the Four Emperors.... Anyway, thank you very much for all your support the last year Gil and have a very Merry Christmas! All the Best, Alexander
Cracking film, well done on the sceat, marvellous coin👌 I'm sure the camera will turn up, maybe a future detectorist will find it , how weird would that be...All the best & Merry Christmas to you and the hound😃👍
Thanks BS - it may turn up... but now its just an old phone i wont be able to use all the good stuff on it but it did make for a slightly different video not be able to use the footage i really enjoyed finding ways round it to make a hopefully watchable vid - all the best to you thanks for the support the last year!
Hope tasky gets better soon. Great video some awesome finds. I feel your pain of loosing your phone. I put mine through the washing machine before Christmas. I have lost every thing contacts all metal detecting related pics notes records . Have a happy new year all the best wasp & Helen 🐝😷
Thanks wasp - what again with your phone - sorry about that; but how on earth did you manage for it to get into the washing machine??!!😂 Hope all well and thanks for the support the past year - all the best, Alexander
@@HolzHammerSagas I was rushing around Christmas Eve. Had a bath clearing up washing. Put it in the washing machine. Went to message Helen could not find the phone. Then Hurd clunk clunk from the washing machine. oh bugger.🐝😷
I am yet to find a full one so will definitely put my mind to one of those... i bet they weigh a bit too! Thanks for the support this year Dan, its much appreciated! All the Best
I'd never found one before David, amazing little things arent they? I did have to clean it a bit but i think/hope its come out alright and I haven't overdone it... i don't think so - thanks for all the support over the last year and hope yo u have a good Christmas etc! All the Best
Lovely finds once again 👌 you have a lot of fans Alex, even the kids put their phones down and watch your video when we press play. That’s a feat and a half I tell you.. have a great Christmas 🎄
What a fabulous video. I love the Saxon coin. I have never found one but maybe some day. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas ☃️ and a Happy and prosperous New Year 🎈
a welcome first for me too! Amazing little things so they are i wasn't sure what to expect - they don't disappoint though! Hope all well Robert; Happy Christmas and thank you for all the support last year, all the Best, Alexander
A great range of finds Alexander but a shame about the lost phone. You would have been more upset if you had lost the Saxon though. Despite the excellence of your camera work, directing and editing, I don't think a Palme d'Or could only be won with a certified star and you only have one available. So, let him loose and dream of a prestigious win in 2022. Best wishes for the festive season and the coming New Year with more fantastic finds.
Rats i didnt know about the certified star and he was at home with his cone on as you said - i will let him loose lots in the New year mainly when the pheasant shooting season is over so he cant upset the local game keepers!!! John, thank you very much for all your support the last year it has meant a lot and have a very Merry Christmas too! All the Best, Alexander
Hope so Ed!!!!! Have a great Christmas too - i once spent Christmas and new year in Melbourne during an Ashes year in Australia it was very good fun!!!! And a bit warmer than here it is suddenly getting very cold!
Me too, hope you like d the sceat in 3D what a little coin!!! I have waited best part of a decade for one so will be very happy and look forward to seeing you with yours! happy Christmas Cath and thanks for all the support - look forward to meeting and detecting with you in the New Year!
Hi mate can’t believe that anglo Saxon coin looks like it’s new thanks for all your great videos we hope you have a wonderful Christmas from us down here in Newzealand
Thanks Keith - likewise from all of us lot to you guys down there - starting to get quite chilly here i didn't even go out today when I could have done it was too cold! All the Best
Wonderful detecting again Ally 😊 I love the treasure you find ❤ and the Winter Landscape! Great to see their seasons change in your videos and to go back to H Q where you have made it look so cosy .Wishing you and Tasci a lovely Yuletide and fondest best wishes from us both Ally!! xxxShaz 🙏🌬❄☃️🎄🎁
Thanks Shaz! Gosh it really has got cold hasn't it?! I could have gone out yesterday but just didn't want to! Stay warm yourselves and see you in the New Year!!!!
@@HolzHammerSagas Yes Ally it's really cold here 🌬❄we thought it was going to snow ❄ yesterday, my thoughts have been turning to a new inglenook, stove ,they make the room so cosy .Have a good Yuletide xxxShaz
Thanks John and thanks for all the support this year... the saxon was the perfect end for me what amazing little coins... Hope all well and Happy Christmas!
Thoroughly enjoy all your videos.Merry Christmas and let's hope 2022 will be liberation year !P.S the collar on Tasci is called an Elizabethan collar (in case you didn't know ) so fingers crossed that will be a good omen !
thanks alex very interesting video and finds some of the soil you search is perfect sandy loam good for not retaining water also very nice for detecting love the videos
it’s lovely digging in that sand I must say - I think it was heathland originally I would love to know how it looked 2000 years ago and why it was so popular through the ages … thanks for all the support last year Bob - hope all well and have a very Happy Christmas
Thanks Arthur, I'm a bit of an amateur Ornitholigist too... very amateur I'm afraid... do you see anything interesting in your part of the country? all the Best; Happy christmas!
Thank you for this vid. I'm feeling with you. I lost my pinpointer.....found it a year later...but i doesnt work anymore....sad:-( Greetings and stay healthy. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Thanks Alex - for once again keeping me entertained whilst I enjoyed a leisurely breakfast. I can well appreciate the joy you felt at discovering that you had found an early Anglo Saxon Sceat, and as you say, it’s in beautiful condition. Anyway, congratulations on finding that. Have a super Christmas, and may the New Year ahead be a good one for you.
That was a very good group of finds. Skeats amaze me...so much detail in such a small space. Poor Tasci, I hope he gets to lose the cone for Christmas. Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year. We have started a tradition of a bonfire in the pasture for New Years. Great fun!
Not a chance of Tasci losing the cone every time i take it off because I feel sorry for him i take my eyes off him for a split second and i turn back round to see a bloody ear falling apart again... infuriating!!! I cant stand him wearing it though he hates it and keeps bumping into things etc. its ok on a docile old hound but not a frisky hyperactive terrier!!! Hope you have a good festive season don't burn anything down! All the Best, Alexander
Alex, what are you like??😂 Your final video of the year cheered me up no end for many reasons. This is typical detectorist behaviour and shows that nothing is perfect. What keeps us going is where there's muck there's money, in your case, the superb sceat. I'm sure if you asked for volunteers to help you find the mobile, many of your followers would willingly turn up!! All the very best to you and 'Tascles' over Christmas.
... well, when all is said and done it was just a former phone though with quite a good camera - I really missed the stuff i filmed on it! I have something called a pocket 2 i have been nervous of using properly so that will be my main camera now - might even be better/easier to use so maybe some good will come out of this - Thanks Trevor for all the support the last year and have a very Happy Christmas!!!
Some amazing finds there. Nothing worse than losing something then going back in the hope that you can retrieve it. Hope Tasci's ear heals soon. Happy Christmas to you both.
Thanks Amanda ,as soon as i take it off as he makes me feel sorry for him, ands i take my eyes off him for a second he is back on it so either i leave it on forever or watch him like a hawk!!!!! I really thought i was going to find that again you know you are right there is nothing worse i shouldn't have convinced myself it was going to be ok! Thank you very much for all your support the last year and have a very Merry Christmas! All the Best, Alexander
Oh Alex, gutted for you losing your phone and footage but the outcome was truly amazing. Lovely Roman coin, jetton and the sceat WOW. Hope you and Tasci have an amazing Christmas, see you on the next. ATB
Another great video, love watching your enthusiasm for your finds and what great finds they are. Merry Christmas to you and tasci and hope he gets the cone of shame off soon 😂👍🏻
Not likely Minelab evrey time i take it off as i feel sorry for him he waits til i turn my back for a second then its one manky ear and back to square one! Hope all well and Merry Christmas to you too!
@@vicmorley906 Thanks Vic, much appreciated! You cant really see in the one i found but they tend, nail cleaners, to end in a slight two pronged end - sorry not to be more technical! You can see in the photo a slight groove where this would have started but the little points have been since worn down. All the Best, Alexander
Thanks Cheryl, Gordon and Tony - there was a phone in my back pocket - it’s the one I use as a phone ( and the odd close up!) the one I lost was it’s predecessor which I only used as a camera - it was red if you come across it! 😅 thanks for watching and hope you have a very Happy Christmas!
Just a minor bit of correction, pretty sure re celtic, the football club seltic, the tribe keltic, great video that jetton and silver saxon to die for. Tasci same as my dog he has a penchant for licking his one paw, vet says nothing wrong with it so he has a boot on, I take it off twice a day to soak it in hibiscrub and apply cream, the minute it is off he is straight at it, only thing that will stop him is the doorbell or a walk.
Thanks Dave, infuriating isnt it - as soon as i take it off as he makes me feel sorry for him, ands i take my eyes off him for a second....! Technically btw both forms of "Celtic" are acceptable.. in fact the "S" would have been correct from the middle ages onwards as it is fro the french which would have used a soft c... but you are correct these days the soft form is used for a glaswegian foootballl team!!!!! Hope all well and hope you have a very merry Christmas!
Do you know that how i knew I'd lost it i was giving the old work horse of a merc ( 298,000 miles!!!) its annual clean when I take EVERYTHING out of it and give it a good clean everywhere and i couldn't find it!! Hope all well Ted and thanks for the support this year - Happy Christmas!
Thanks Peter - I know - give me an excuse to get a nice new camera - a christmas present to myself! Hope all well and a very good Christmas to you too! All the Best!
Amazing history recovered again buddy, you can not beat that old patina colour, beautiful. Real shame about the phone , maybe some tim ein the future a history hunter will recover it and find all the footage on it lol and use it for his own channel. You have a good one. And all the best for the new year.
Hi Alex , sorry to hear about the lst footage right bummer !! anyway you made up for it with more outstanding finds , and hope fido get's well soon pal and have a good xmas and new year ATB Rob .
Ha - you noticed!!!!! He must have come from a German/Austrian museum as there is a little Label saying "HausMaus"! I will email you a better photo he is adorable! Happy Christmas to you both too!
Another great video!😍… I have to ask.. did you once ask me outside of Trefnant primary school, if was the lady doing a detecting UA-cam channel.. you look very familiar 🤔
Yes that was me! I was just up for a few days over last weekend and detect at Plas Heaton. There's not much there but so pretty it doesn't really matter - have a look at the video I made on my other channel I started for shorter videos and come and have a search with me one day when I'm up again if you like! ua-cam.com/video/Kv-1WufV8tw/v-deo.html

Have a great Christmas Alex & Tasci, good luck for more great finds in 2022
Thanks Clint and thanks for your support this past year - I hope you have a very happy Christmas! All the Best, Alexander
What a fabulous video. I love the Saxon coin. I have never found one but maybe some day. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas ☃️ and a Happy and prosperous New Year 🎈
a welcome first for me too! Amazing little things so they are i wasn't sure what to expect - they don't disappoint though! Hope all well Robert; Happy Christmas and thank you for all the support last year, all the Best, Alexander
A great range of finds Alexander but a shame about the lost phone. You would have been more upset if you had lost the Saxon though. Despite the excellence of your camera work, directing and editing, I don't think a Palme d'Or could only be won with a certified star and you only have one available. So, let him loose and dream of a prestigious win in 2022. Best wishes for the festive season and the coming New Year with more fantastic finds.
Rats i didnt know about the certified star and he was at home with his cone on as you said - i will let him loose lots in the New year mainly when the pheasant shooting season is over so he cant upset the local game keepers!!! John, thank you very much for all your support the last year it has meant a lot and have a very Merry Christmas too! All the Best, Alexander

Great video, truly enjoyed and informative.
Thanks Con Ken - I've only just about got over losing the camera and live footage! Hope all well!
Great video as usual Alex. Sorry about the phone. That Saxon silver was a dream! Poor Taski.
Have a happy Christmas & all the best for 2022.
Thanks John and thanks for all the support this year... the saxon was the perfect end for me what amazing little coins... Hope all well and Happy Christmas!
Thoroughly enjoy all your videos.Merry Christmas and let's hope 2022 will be liberation year !P.S the collar on Tasci is called an Elizabethan collar (in case you didn't know ) so fingers crossed that will be a good omen !
God lets hopes re the Liberation Edward!!! Hope all well with you and thank you for watching! Happy Christmas!
Nice finds merry christmas to you and Tasci from south Wales uk
Thanks David and have a very good Christmas too!
thanks alex very interesting video and finds some of the soil you search is perfect sandy loam good for not retaining water also very nice for detecting love the videos
it’s lovely digging in that sand I must say - I think it was heathland originally I would love to know how it looked 2000 years ago and why it was so popular through the ages … thanks for all the support last year Bob - hope all well and have a very Happy Christmas
Happy Christmas well done on producing such good professional videos, much enjoyed!
Thanks Mark that is very much appreciated!!! Hope all well and have a very Happy Christmas too!
Happy Christmas to you Alexander. Love your field videos and love your study also. My two hobbies/interests are Metal Detecting and Ornithology.
Thanks Arthur, I'm a bit of an amateur Ornitholigist too... very amateur I'm afraid... do you see anything interesting in your part of the country? all the Best; Happy christmas!
You have had a great year, let’s hope next year is just as productive. Happy Christmas to you and Tasci.
Me too! Thanks Old groat and thanks for the support the past year - all the Best and Happy Christmas!
Shame the sound wasn't too good on your home segment but enjoyed your hunt and finds! Happy Christmas and New year! Chez in Lliria Valencia Spain xx
Sorry about that Cheryl I don't know what happened maybe the microphone i was using want on th correct setting i will look into it - Feliz Navidad!
Happy Christmas to you keep up with the great videos really enjoy them
Thanks Peter I will do my best and a veryMerry Christmas!to you too! All the Best
Thank you for this vid. I'm feeling with you. I lost my pinpointer.....found it a year later...but i doesnt work anymore....sad:-( Greetings and stay healthy. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Ha! A year later!!! Bad Luck! Hope all well - stay safe yourself and Happy Christmas!
Merry Xmas Alexander keep the videos coming in 2022.
Thanks Nigel - Merry Christmas to you too! All the Best!
Amazing finds as always. The privilege to have access to such fields. Congrats, and merry christmas from Norway.
Thanks Knut, I am really lucky I know... hope all well with you and hope you have a good Christmas! All the Best, Alexander
Another enjoyable video cheers mate and merry Christmas to you and family🍻🎉☃️
Thanks Andrew, much appreciated! I hope you have a very happy Christmas, all the Best, Alexander
Thanks Alex - for once again keeping me entertained whilst I enjoyed a leisurely breakfast. I can well appreciate the joy you felt at discovering that you had found an early Anglo Saxon Sceat, and as you say, it’s in beautiful condition. Anyway, congratulations on finding that. Have a super Christmas, and may the New Year ahead be a good one for you.
Thanks Anthony- not much beats finding an early Anglo saxon sceat ! Have a very good Christmas and New Year too - all the Best, Alexander
That was a very good group of finds. Skeats amaze me...so much detail in such a small space. Poor Tasci, I hope he gets to lose the cone for Christmas. Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year. We have started a tradition of a bonfire in the pasture for New Years. Great fun!
Not a chance of Tasci losing the cone every time i take it off because I feel sorry for him i take my eyes off him for a split second and i turn back round to see a bloody ear falling apart again... infuriating!!! I cant stand him wearing it though he hates it and keeps bumping into things etc. its ok on a docile old hound but not a frisky hyperactive terrier!!! Hope you have a good festive season don't burn anything down! All the Best, Alexander
Cracking finds..have a great Xmas mate..
Thanks Vlad and thanks for all your support this last year its much appreciated! I hope you have a very happy Christmas!
Brilliant finds
Thanks Jesse - hope all well with you - Happy Christmas!
@@HolzHammerSagas yes thks have a great Christmas and a great new year 👍
Alex, what are you like??😂 Your final video of the year cheered me up no end for many reasons. This is typical detectorist behaviour and shows that nothing is perfect. What keeps us going is where there's muck there's money, in your case, the superb sceat. I'm sure if you asked for volunteers to help you find the mobile, many of your followers would willingly turn up!! All the very best to you and 'Tascles' over Christmas.
... well, when all is said and done it was just a former phone though with quite a good camera - I really missed the stuff i filmed on it! I have something called a pocket 2 i have been nervous of using properly so that will be my main camera now - might even be better/easier to use so maybe some good will come out of this - Thanks Trevor for all the support the last year and have a very Happy Christmas!!!
Some amazing finds there.
Nothing worse than losing something then going back in the hope that you can retrieve it.
Hope Tasci's ear heals soon.
Happy Christmas to you both.
Thanks Amanda ,as soon as i take it off as he makes me feel sorry for him, ands i take my eyes off him for a second he is back on it so either i leave it on forever or watch him like a hawk!!!!! I really thought i was going to find that again you know you are right there is nothing worse i shouldn't have convinced myself it was going to be ok! Thank you very much for all your support the last year and have a very Merry Christmas! All the Best, Alexander
Wow! Best wishes from New Zealand!
Thanks Spitalhatch - hope all well and Happy Christmas!
Happy Christmas to you and Tasky good luck for the new year
Thanks you Vic! Wishing you lots of luck too! All the Best, Alexander
Oh Alex, gutted for you losing your phone and footage but the outcome was truly amazing. Lovely Roman coin, jetton and the sceat WOW. Hope you and Tasci have an amazing Christmas, see you on the next. ATB
Thanks Jacquie and hope you are having a good Christmas too! X
Another great video, love watching your enthusiasm for your finds and what great finds they are. Merry Christmas to you and tasci and hope he gets the cone of shame off soon 😂👍🏻
Not likely Minelab evrey time i take it off as i feel sorry for him he waits til i turn my back for a second then its one manky ear and back to square one! Hope all well and Merry Christmas to you too!
There will be more sceats on that field 👍
Do you think - I hope so!!! Thanks J G hope all well!
@@HolzHammerSagas Tends to go that way from experience. You rarely just get one. All well thanks and same to you!
another great video thanks alex happy xmas
Thanks Patrick - much appreciated! Hope all well and have a very good Christmas!
Roman nail cleaner looks very similar to an hour hand from a clock
Hi Vic, it does rather... be honest - do you think I have got it wrong and that thats what it is?
@@HolzHammerSagas who am I to say, if your research suggests a nail cleaner then that is what it is, great work on your videos really enjoy them
@@vicmorley906 Thanks Vic, much appreciated! You cant really see in the one i found but they tend, nail cleaners, to end in a slight two pronged end - sorry not to be more technical! You can see in the photo a slight groove where this would have started but the little points have been since worn down. All the Best, Alexander
Happy Holidays. Looks like your phone was in your back pocket at 9:24. Could it be in the laundry? Congratulations on the Sceat.
Thanks Cheryl, Gordon and Tony - there was a phone in my back pocket - it’s the one I use as a phone ( and the odd close up!) the one I lost was it’s predecessor which I only used as a camera - it was red if you come across it! 😅 thanks for watching and hope you have a very Happy Christmas!
Just a minor bit of correction, pretty sure re celtic, the football club seltic, the tribe keltic, great video that jetton and silver saxon to die for. Tasci same as my dog he has a penchant for licking his one paw, vet says nothing wrong with it so he has a boot on, I take it off twice a day to soak it in hibiscrub and apply cream, the minute it is off he is straight at it, only thing that will stop him is the doorbell or a walk.
Thanks Dave, infuriating isnt it - as soon as i take it off as he makes me feel sorry for him, ands i take my eyes off him for a second....! Technically btw both forms of "Celtic" are acceptable.. in fact the "S" would have been correct from the middle ages onwards as it is fro the french which would have used a soft c... but you are correct these days the soft form is used for a glaswegian foootballl team!!!!! Hope all well and hope you have a very merry Christmas!
BEST WISHES AND HAPPY DETECTING 2022
Thanks Roger - you too! All the Best, Alexander
Great finds, thanks for sharing and merry xmas!
Thank you ruckusflow and Merry Christmas to you too - thanks for watching!
Merry Christmas Alexander!!
Thanks Tim - I keep meaning to email - its going to be rather a long one by the time I get round to it! Hope all well!
Bad news with your camera, have you checked under the car seat?
Great video 😊
All the best for Christmas and the New Year.🐻
Do you know that how i knew I'd lost it i was giving the old work horse of a merc ( 298,000 miles!!!) its annual clean when I take EVERYTHING out of it and give it a good clean everywhere and i couldn't find it!! Hope all well Ted and thanks for the support this year - Happy Christmas!
Tasky has been forced to wear the cone of shame
He is being a pain in the a*** about it! See you tomorrow!
Congratulations on the nice Sceat 👍and shame about your phone 😟
Good luck 🤞 and have a good Xmas 🎅🏻
Thanks Peter - I know - give me an excuse to get a nice new camera - a christmas present to myself! Hope all well and a very good Christmas to you too! All the Best!
Was a good day metal detecting
Wasnt it just thanks Barnsley M & A Life DIY! Hope all well - Happy Christmas!
Amazing history recovered again buddy, you can not beat that old patina colour, beautiful. Real shame about the phone , maybe some tim ein the future a history hunter will recover it and find all the footage on it lol and use it for his own channel. You have a good one. And all the best for the new year.
Cheers Liam you too old bean! Onwards and Upwards!
Happy christmas
Thanks David you too!
Hi Alex , sorry to hear about the lst footage right bummer !! anyway you made up for it with more outstanding finds , and hope fido get's well soon pal and have a good xmas and new year ATB Rob .
You too Robbie, hope you have had a good end to the year too - Happy Christmas!
Happy Christmas Ally, give Tasci a pat from me, p.s have you got a Mouse problem in your cottage, all the best, Terry.
Ha - you noticed!!!!! He must have come from a German/Austrian museum as there is a little Label saying "HausMaus"! I will email you a better photo he is adorable! Happy Christmas to you both too!
@@HolzHammerSagas just brilliant Ally, I have a bit of an Eagle eye when it comes to your taxidermy.
Another great video!😍… I have to ask.. did you once ask me outside of Trefnant primary school, if was the lady doing a detecting UA-cam channel.. you look very familiar 🤔
Yes that was me! I was just up for a few days over last weekend and detect at Plas Heaton. There's not much there but so pretty it doesn't really matter - have a look at the video I made on my other channel I started for shorter videos and come and have a search with me one day when I'm up again if you like!

Good video Have a Great Xmas
Thanks Mike much appreciated - hope all well and great Xmas to you too! All the B, Alexander

Thanks Glenda! You too!
Well you may have lost a camera 📷 but after detecting again on the 🥕 carrot field you now have night 🌃 sight 😂😂😂🌙
Ha! Yes, night vision!!! Hope all well, Steve thanks for watching - hope I didn't bang on too much!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed and I wish you and your four legged friend happy Christmas and happy hunting 👍
Victorinus 269-271 AD,Gallic emperor hated by and murdered by his entourage for seducing their wives,went out with a bang.
I knew about the one who got him killed but didnt' know he was serial banger!!!! Hope all well Zingling Happy Christmas!
