    That big musket type ball may well be from what they started using in around the 1740's called cannisters, which was basically like a big baked bean tin filled with those balls, shoved in a cannon and fired, it was like a huge shotgun shell peppering the enemy. The Government forces used those against the Jacobites at the battle of Culloden in 1746 up here in the Highlands of Scotland which is about the time they started using them. Great finds well done. 👍🏻👍🏻 I'd be well pleased with half or even a quarter of that. That Roman Constantine is a beaut 👍🏻

    My uncle told me a story…
    Back in’t 80’s him and a pal went detecting. He was swinging the detector and his pal was on digging duty.
    They kept getting fantastic signals but they never found anything when digging (back then there wasn’t any pinpointer) anyway, he went home for tea and his dad asked if he found owt so he told him the story..
    His dad said, “was you wearing those boots lad🥾🥾”
    He said “yea why?”
    “They’re steel toes lad!” 😂😆🤣

    What a cracking day Dan. Reploughing a field
    Give a usually new life to a field this was
    Ekstraordinært good. Fibula is roman
    Inspired type. In Denmark we called the
    Time period younger German iron age
    500-800 ad saxxon came to England
    From Holsten part of Denmark until
    1864. So it could be a saxxon find.
    Romans closed down earlier in England
    But theres a time slip. Really nice Tudor
    Buckel, pity the ring is mended, should
    Be easy for a Silver expert to fix Gongrats

      Hey buddy, sorry I don't have a list of numbers, but I always call out the vdi numbers in my videos for each find 👍. Hammered are usually in the 20s to early 30s, but I've had smaller ones come in as low as 16.
      My gold half sovereigns were both a solid 29. The gold celtic stater was a 38/39 👍.
      The deionised water is just the stuff you use for car batteries and ironing etc. This is the one I use groceries.asda.com/product/car-maintenance/car-plan-de-ionised-water/479358?&cmpid=ppc-_-ghs-_--_-google-_--_-dskwid-92700073943831308_dm&s_kwcid=AL!11432!3!621744775339!!!u!1874979835156!&gclid=CjwKCAjwzuqgBhAcEiwAdj5dRp2kt69VGqH3LOlA9SZqWCPBkW0XyygGEcVOw9fiJHHa8b7CXAnABBoCcvkQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

      Thank you for commenting mate, I have found that my cultivated settings are pretty good all round on arable land. I just tweak the recovery Speed up and down depending on the conditions. Maybe in stubble, I would raise the recovery speed to 6 or 7 just because you aren't covering as much ground and that would help to hit the targets a little sharper 👍.
