LOL nothing beats a soggy Scot than a soggy Scot with silver!
A little story from a Canadian whose Mother was born in Portsmouth....my Mother's small story told by her...King George V was recuperating from a severe illness at *Bognor, a small town on the South Coast of England. It was a small seaside resort and had a certain reputation for its’ sea breezes and healing properties. My Mother’s parents lived there, Charles and Emily Freeman, and my Mother and I spent most of our holidays there.
My Mother took me down to the beach one day, and we decided to walk along the sands to where the King was staying at a large private house right on the shore. We were lucky, the King and Queen Mary were out for their morning walk, and we were the only ones there. Queen Mary was pushing King George in a wheelchair along the private promenade in front of the house. I waved and the King waved back. It was quite a thrill for a little girl. It was in gratitude for its healing powers that the Town, after his recovery was in future known as Bognor Regis.
My favorite, dirty berty!
Thank you for all your hard work, filming,editing and educating us.
At 52.53 there's a 1916 penny which might be a rare example of the 'broken tooth' variety. Between the last T of BRITT and the O of OMN is a colon. This points to the rim where one of the dots or teeth is missing. The second 1916 penny at 53.31 doesn't have the broken tooth. IDKY my kids think I'm boring......
I just sat down with a cuppa, and you drop another video! GET IN!
What a massive haul!!! WELL DONE!!!!!
The 1816 silver broke my heart as that was the year without summer due to a large volcanic eruption which blocked enough sunlight to cause crop failures and famine, and later disease. That coin would have been very dear for many years since its minting.
BTW, I will never tire of hearing about Gorgeous George. Keep digging him up.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Many thanks Eileen and great info too! Thanks
To me, it wouldn't be a good vidro, if you didn't find a Gorgeous George or drop something! I love your videos! Thank you for all the hard work.
George V must have been a generous man, scattering coins around like that! :D
A shilling is 1/20th of a pound. Twelve pence = one shilling ; 20 shillings makes one pound, so 240 pennies to one pound. Very easy to remember if you are ancient.
Best detecting channel on UA-cam without a doubt 😊well done ✔️ again ! 😅lol beautiful bullhead
All those pennies and half pennies so close to a church, reminds me of scrambles at weddings years ago 😅
I grew up on a council estate in London and we had a big Scottish family living amongst us. That meant several weddings and you reminded me of the dad throwing hands full of coins out of the car window as he set off to church with his daughters to ‘give them away’. Maybe a way of sharing his good fortune at easing the financial burden each time a daughter was no longer his responsibility…..
What a fabulous day! That certainly looks like a plant pot on that coin. Hope you can find out about it!
Great pocket full of silver.Right around my birthday you got a three pence silver with 1943 the year i was born so it and i are both 80 years old. I never miss your videos and love the history lessons
You make my day
The Scots have always had a reputation of being tight fisted and frugal with their money. With the amount of coins that you have been finding, there must have been a lot of cursing and weeping at the end of the day. Love all you guys and your channel.
Many thanks. I think I’m all likelihood there was a lot of alcohol going on! That’s often how people end up losing things 😂
my god John you are on fire the bull head is a cracker you will need a dram after this dig thanks again cheers
Congrats, great hunt I think the image on the cufflink could be a cornucopia , which was a symbol of prosperity
Well done, and thanks John,bostin finds,so much more to come up 😮, regards Kelvin
Many thanks as ever Kelvin much appreciated
Congratulations 🎉 oh what a day. Got in 3 days more than 300 fragments of ww2 grenades and then finally some silver. Heinrich 4th of Brabant from 1267. Keep on your good work. Thank you for your videos. Greetings from Germany.
Yes!!! Perfect timing. George 111 bullhead shilling no less.
Nicely informing and entertaining. You are a credit to your generation.
The silvered cough-link or button reminds me of the Dutch 'vrijheidshoed', a hat on top of a pike symbolizing freedom. Seventeenth century.
It’s not gorgeous George, it’s Dirrty Birrty!!!😂😂😂 love it.
Haha 😂 roll them R’s
Brilliant.👍🏽
Wow what a brilliant day for you and perfect narration - really enjoyable video John as usual. Can’t wait to see what other goodies you find on those fields 🤞😀
My goodness John!!! You are what some call coin drunk! Even if most are Gorgeous George…what an amazing day for you!!! Bet the rest of the crew were calling you names after this day. Wear the rubbing proudly! Can’t wait to see you back out on this permission!
That George III silver was a great find... looks like a very good site ...
Many thanks. Two digs on this site totalling about 7hrs and I’ve had 38 coins…. Another amazing video coming soon 🤩
What a thrill to get to accompany you on such a remarkable permission. Good on you.
Much appreciated Molly. An amazing site and so much potential
Very nicely done again at the church farm and Village.
Hi, from Ohio! Loved the video and also the history of the coins,thank you🤗👍
ThBks Zöe I’m glad you enjoyed and thanks for the kind words
Awesome day mate!! George III are my favourite milled coins so beautiful😊 don’t often find them in that condition either stunning find buddy well done!
What a day you're having John and what a memory you have as well. All the facts just come rolling out and to someone who has never had a good memory for history or names! 😅😅👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Well you kept the George theme going, and they got better as you went! Congratulations on you very successful day!
Lots of action as a reward for sticking it out in the rain 👏🇨🇦
Many thanks Steve
some great finds and history lessons as well
Glad you liked
Cracking finds, beautiful bull head sixpence. Nice to see the subs are still clocking up
Wow, wow, wow!!! Can't imagine how much you will keep finding in this new permission if this is what you find on your first try!!!🥰🥰🥰
My uncle was born in Glasgow in 1920, he joined the army when he was 15 to get away from the poverty. I loved his brogue and the r's on the end of most words. I've now subbed to your channel, you give history while you dig. Keep dry😁😁😁. Cheers Rosemary Perth Western Australia 72 yrs
OMG John, what a day of detecting & what a new permission! Brilliant hammy and lovely bull head.
The 1917 penny was my father's birth year! Keep 'em comin' M8, cheers, John.
My mother’s birth year, too. Special year for two of us…
John, in my humble opinion your cufflink is a pot with flowers and vines coming out of it much is they would’ve had similar designs for wallpaper.
May I also say that every scrap of my Celtic DNA hums with pride every time you say the word… Worm
Well done john!!!!
Much appreciated
Wow what a day , lovely bullhead sixpence , thanks for taking us along 😊
Looking forward to the future hunts. I bet you slept well!
If there were Oscar's for videos, you would win for this two-part posting. So interesting and historic, but your enthusiasm kept me wanting you to find more and more silver! You bring history alive for many. Now some trivia about Gorgeous George. He attempted to save his counsin, Czar Nicholas, and family, but rescinded his offer when public sentiment waivered. So GG left the Romanov's to their fate ultimately. However, George and Nicholas were almost identical in appearance and first cousins!
Many thanks Barbara. I’m glad you’re enjoying and thanks for the kind words and interesting beck story!!
Jimminey..What a day it was. Great George the 3rd
Many thanks. George iii is a beauty
So exciting! I hope you find a big hoard!
It used to be TWENTY shillings to a pound when I was at school!
Another great day - I hope I'll get one half as good one day 😊
Your silvered button early doors looks to me like the face of a cow, staring right at you. Big nose in the middle, eyes, ears... and a weird 🦄 horn.
Many thanks. I’ll need to re-look at that one! Many thanks
Happy days John. Congratulations. 🥳
I’ve learned a lot from this one. A new word: Silversniffer.
And: Always check your holes. Which I went and did right away of course. 😜
Haha 😂 thanks Wolfie
Your field is ,Treasure Island'. It doesn't matter how long it takes you, you must do it all.Maybe mark it out somehow.Anyway, good viewing as always John. Thanks for your time you share.
I LOVE watching and listening to you!!!!
Many thanks Colleen and thanks for your support
Thank you!
Thanks Peggy
Love the silver! ❤
Me too 😆 thanks for watching
Lovely day for you find-wise if not weather-wise. Thanks for helping take my mind off troubles. 🥰💕❤️👍👍
A great day indeed, nicely done I enjoyed the video. 🇺🇸
Many thanks Fred
Brilliant well done and thanks for the superb content✌️
Absolutely fuckin magic son onwards and upwards. St Andrews sends its regards 👍
I think it is a plant pot with a flower
Agree, definitely a potted flower or bouquet.
I am a new big fan. I have learned a lot with your narrations in beautiful PERTHSHIRE. I live in Canada but I was born in Yorkshire. Please keep doing what you are doing, the history never gets old( ya I know)
Many thanks Duncan. I’m glad you’ve enjoyed!! Much appreciated and I’m actually of your Yorkshire and York this week!! A beautiful city
What a fabulous day John! Can’t imagine beating that one! But a happy time with the farmer for sure.
Many thanks Greg much appreciated
I absolutely love this channel!!
Many thanks I’m very glad to hear it ❤️
Interesting to see the copper rivets in place on a larger piece of leather. Gives a better feel for how they were used. Three monarchs within 20 years, much like the Victoria - Edward VII - George V period, history repeats itself... Congrats on a stellar day!
American quilter here. Agree with the "baskets and vines/plant" comments. I don't know what it is, or anything about coins, but stylized quilt designs from the 1800's looked totally like that. Similar versions were also painted onto some furniture, for example Dutch chests and kitchenware.
Can’t stop watching you now 😂😂❤
Excellent!! Glad to hear it 🤩
The design on your button looks like a flower pot with plants blooming.
What a day ! Its incredible what good condition the George iii silver coin is in... like the day it was lost. Awesome.
What haul, probably twice as much silver as I've ever found in a day 👍
It was a great day…. Spoiler alert day 2 (to follow!) was great as well 😮
It's the sorting hat 😆- did Dumbledore wear cufflinks?
What an incredible days digging, so many treasures. Glad you are feeling better and able to stand the strain of the excitement😅. Have a great weekend and take care.
Much appreciated Cate. Thanks for watching and for supporting
I can't wait for the isle of Bute episode....maybe a Waverly ride doon the water
Many thanks. Glad you liked
How many of those coins go to the farmer who gave you the permission? What a day you had, John. Absolutely brilliant! Why don't you carry a garden trowel with you, or a weed scratcher? It might help with this dense clods.
Thank you for the fantastic video.
Glad you enjoyed
Great finds ! Looking forward to the return !
Many thanks
Great video that George 111 silver was in great condition George v coins a plenty well found
Many thanks Bobby. The George iii was a beauty
Now that's a proper days detecting, wow.
That 1816 is phenomenal
It’s beautiful isn’t it and a lovely tone. Must have been lost just after manufacture
Wow what a haul well done John 💪💪💪
Much appreciated
A great day of detecting! Loads of coins to be found. BTW, I don't recall if you've ever shown what your camera rig looks like. You do a remarkable job of keeping the lens aimed at the action.
Light box is always a great idea. Coodoos on making this part of your “unique” content. Blessings.
Silver plated button: maybe a baskets with a plant, 2 initials ( C E ?) and a beautiful scroll around the edge. Uncommonly fancy.
Many thanks, I’ll need to re-look at this! Many thanks again
What an amazing day always look forward to your videos, and the information that you give with them
Much appreciated Jonnie. Many thanks
Just watched both of your videos on this site, and very enjoyable they were. Subscribed.
Welcome to the channel Derek. Happy to have you and thanks for the kind words!
you lucky b...... :-) congrats mate. You love a very good place for metal detecting
Much appreciated. And spoiler alert….. wait until you see the next few videos!! 🚨
Thanks for educating me on finds and MD technique and being entertaining as well. Never saw a George III silver - it’s a beaut!
some really cool finds again
Your always finding great stuff but it's awesome you show the reality of detecting finding all the aluminum and lead and crusty copper and such lol...
Most ppl only show their treasure of few and far between... I enjoy your honesty and showing how detecting normally goes..
great finds. love your excitement.❤
Nearly thought Scully and Mulder had to help X files! But missing upload turned up! Did n't disappoint! John should be careful Charles 3 father
Made it to 99 years old. New permission should keep John busy
For years theres a lot more to come.
Think a wee celebration when 25subs
Are there close now. What about a
Performance in your kilt🤣🤣🤣
Threw in some bagpipe also😜🔝❤️
You had to pull a mint bullhead...you lucky chap you!
Well done you buddy. What a touch, getting so many coins in 1 day. Hopefully you've got a lot more to come from your new site. Great stuff. Bless up 👊
You might get an power booster block mines about credit car 52:02 d size 1/4 “ thick that can recharge my phone on the go about three times around. Love it and use it and my phone everyday recharging them both over night .
Don’t know where the 52:02 came from
Fun Fact: This week I learned that the model for Britannia used on British coins since the 17th century was Frances Stuart, mistress to Charles II.
That oldest silver coin, my goodness, magnificent craftsmanship and history.
Amazing isn’t it 😮
Fantastic stuff John. Some lovely finds. Enjoyed the video as usual.👏👏
Much appreciated
I remember taking the pre-1980 pull tabs apart and shooting them across the lunch room in high school. Thanks for the exciting part 1 and part 2!
Thank you ,this was very interesting.
Very glad you enjoyed Hector! Many thanks
@@thescottishdetectorist thank you for answering me et bonsoir from me a older Scottish lady born in Glasgow who has lived in the Charente Maritime for the last 48 years , but I still can never forget Scotland and I really enjoy your videos .
Coins 👍👍👍👍👍👌
A plenty!!! Thanks Janis
52 Denari in a day woo hoo I would have loved seeing that.
Great day and thanks for sharing. It was interesting to actually see one of those brass studs in situ. Verifies that it really is from horse harness. Some of my ancestors were harness makers so helps me visualise what they made and the quality of leather used. Amazing it's lasted so long in the soil.
Much appreciated and I’m
Glad you enjoyed
That George 3rd is a stunner, looks almost no circulating in its life..enjoy my friend, truly a.azing digs you got onto there unreal congrats🍻🍻🍻🍻
It’s a beauty isn’t it Chris. Love to tone too
I do, when I've the time! But have always wanted an authentic hammered have never found one lol, abt everything else but...would love to come abroad and try to find my own but physically and financially it s not a possibility sadly...keep on digging my friend and plz lmk if u would possibly trade a hammered for some U.S. silvers or whatnot, cheers!
Enjoyed the video very much! 😊
How odd I went in to like the video an the tv showed I had already liked it...I did watch the other part but the like shouldn't have counted for part 2 ...that's rather disturbing to me considering nobody else uses my account but yet the like was on this brand new video already haha
