Hi Neil, much appreciate you watching this video and leaving your feedback. 10 wonderful rewards in as many years in this hobby. Coins like this do not present themselves very often. This is why I only ever metal detect on pasture fields, condition of gold and silver coins is pristine. Thanks again and catch you on my next episode. Happy New Year. G

[@thesouthernsearcher]

Mate that was fantastic and what a top 10! I wasn't shocked that the gold angel was top it would be for me to. That's what we all do this incredible hobby for.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Jackson, jeez I'm 3 weeks behind on replies, its never ending YOLO!! Mate that will be the best coin I ever find with a metal detector in my lifetime. There aren't too many coins out there that would top that! Makes me very proud to watch this video and look at the rewards for the last 10 years dedication. I would hope this video might re-inspire you to get back out detecting again and re-kindle your love for the best hobby out there (ie better than motorbikes and better than tattoos haha)

[@thesouthernsearcher]

@TheDukesOfDerbyshire haha you say that as a non biker lol, I do want to get out but a lot has been getting in the way of late. Maybe next week might be the week.

Hi mate, thanks for your kind words. This video is 10 years of my life right there. I have dedicated so much of my life into this wonderful hobby. To find coins like this is what makes it all worth while - although I still enjoy finding nothing at all haha. Thanks for watching and thanks for your support in 2023. See you in 2024. G

Cheers Gary, this one was definitely topped off with some silver, and some gold. 10 years of immense graft right there for 10 epic coins! Catch you on the next one mate. G

[@disabledadventures4115]

Your finds cabinet is proof that dedication and perseverance to the hobby can pay off with the most spectacular selection of lovely finds, well done Gareth. The only thing I can say is that if those finds were mine, then your Gold Georgian fob seal would have been number one overall, they are so rare to find and were so personal that it just makes the find slightly more special than a gold coin, but that is only my opinion.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi guys, thanks for tuning in and watching this one. 10 years of my life went into making these finds. This video was intended to be solely about my top 10 gold and silver coin finds, not artefacts. I have a whole new project on the horizon about my top 10 artefacts, and yes, the FOB seal will be very much at number 1 :)

[@leecotterill5422]

Simply amazing finds.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Thanks Lee, when I made this video, it made me realise how well I did with that Garrett AT Pro. It was all about location though, almost all of those finds came from the same area. I should probably start going back!! Thanks for watching

When I found my dream find, a gold hammered coin I really wish I had taken more videos and more photos at the time. It was so long ago it was before I ever properly photographed or recorded finds. In fact I think I did a live Facebook broadcast haha, wish I could somehow find that recording!!

You have had an amazing journey and its far from over! So cool to watch you find those dreamy coins! Goldcoin is my number 1 bucket find as you might remember. I have found viking gold but not goldcoin 😄 So nostalgic to see you swing the Garret as well back in the days. I spent way too much time with the Garret myself but I never sold it and one day im bored I wanna dust it off and go detect with it for a day just for fun. Congrats on all the epic finds. More to come!

I might not find Celtic, or Roman, or Saxon, but the things I do find are in amazing condition. No greater feeling in the world than pulling out the ground a beautiful gold coin that's been sat there for hundreds of years.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Andy, thanks very much for taking time out your day to watch this video and also for your kind words. 10 years of my life went into making these finds. I do have some nice scenic permissions, you will never see me metal detecting on ploughed fields or arrable fields. I only ever metal detect on hilly pasture fields, as this is the type of scenery I like to be surrounded by and like to make KZbin films. This type of land provides finds in the best conditions, that have not been destroyed by the plough. Thanks again, and I hope to see you again. G

[@andyfrape5110]

Agreed, I need to get more pasture permissions, almost 20 years for me on arable and only 1 gold coin to my name and yes the condition 100% better in pasture than arable. Bumped into you at RCM, think you were with Ben that day (very hot as I recall) 2 years ago. Cheers

Thank you very much. This is literally my pride and joy of the last 10 years of my life. An awful lot of work went into finding these amazing coins. Thanks for watching

[@danielt879]

What a collection Gareth... stunning... thank you so much for sharing them with us. Well done to you... amazing 👏

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, thank you for the kind words, that is 10 years of my life right there. These are the things that I spend so much of my life looking for. Thanks for watching. I'm always a little reluctant to do videos like this as it can come across as bragging. I see a video like this as a tool to reach more potential viewers and subscribers. Thanks as always for your support. G

[@danielt879]

Not many people will have the time, the dedication and the luck to find what you habe mate. You should be very proud. Its not about bragging, its an awesome collection. Thank you so much for sharing 😊​@TheDukesOfDerbyshire

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Paul, if you fast forward 10 years of going metal detecting every weekend, sometimes twice a week, knocking on doors, finding new areas, finding good areas, you'll make finds like these too. Most of these actually came from the same area, the same town!! And with my old battered AT Pro. Maybe need to start detecting that area again!!

[@jaynehorn151]

You do the hard yards and you truly deserve such great finds

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Jayne, thank you, I dread to think how many hours I have spent metal detecting in the past 10 years. It is coins like these that we go looking for and spending so much of our lifetimes searching fields for. I have lots of other coins that were close to making this list. Thanks as always for tuning in and watching. Gareth

[@sammiles849]

An amazing video, and a great video to show what every detectorist dreams off, hopefully some day my collection is like that. Definitely some absolute stunners there my favourites have to be the George 4th sixpence, young head Victoria half sov and the Henry 7th, hammered truly amazing coins. But it does show that hard work pays off. Hope you and the family had a great Christmas, keep it up Gareth 😁🍻

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Sam, thanks as always for the kind words. I have to say that is 10 years of my life gone into finding those coins, tens of thousands of hours in the field. It takes a lot of work to find such items, or a lot of luck!! Had a good Christmas, hope you guys did too. Apologies for the slow reply. G

Wawwww some incredible memories there, you've done well buddy, you also did well with the at pro lol, you need to get an AT max now, get more gold hammered, congratulations with all your finds Gareth

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, yes making this video I realised that almost all these amazing finds were made with my trusty AT Pro. But almost all from the same area / town - which I don't detect anymore as its 45 minute drive away now. I couldn't use an old Garrett again, far too heavy and unpleasant to use to compared to the super light weight XP's

[@Greengrass1972]

@@TheDukesOfDerbyshire you should try borrowing an AT max with a 5x8 small coil, there's a challenge for you 😉👍

[@markjohnnojohnson5352]

Awesome video mate! Think your a bit like me and have a slight favourite towards early milled than hammered😊 The Anna is a special coin mate amazing condition! Top of everyone’s list is the hammered gold but mine is a full gold Guinea I’d even take half a Guinea😂 stunning coins mate! Considering these are mostly milled maybe do a hammered top 10 or a artefact top 10👌🏻 Happy Christmas & new year buddy

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Mark, great to hear from you mate, thanks for the kind words, and yes you are right, there's something very special about early milled silver coins in good condition. Yes mate, a top 10 hammered silver coins and a top 10 artefact would be a great couple of videos. I'll probably do the artefact one next time I can muster some time and don't have any other content to upload. Apologies for the slow reply, I spend more time replying to comments than I do metal detecting and it takes me a long time to reply to everyone, but a reply to everyone is what everyone gets as that's the kinda guy I am. Cheers dude. G

[@davetaylor812]

great finds, my best solver is my only hammered H2 1185 (flo dated it from monier and mint, my best gold and only gold is a vivky 1/2 sov (even though I did mark it with spade), silver with 400i, gold with orx)

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Dave, sounds like a couple of amazing finds there. I have been very lucky with gold coins, but I firmly believe its because of the locations where I metal detect, 100% pasture fields, hilly footpath fields, that's where the gold coins are. As always thanks so much for watching. G

[@STEFFAN-ee3oh]

Hi Gareth! I was wondering what you do with your modern pence coins, do you have a coin jar?

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi there, thanks very much for watching this video. That's a great question. About every 3 years when I have a few kilos, I take them to my Natwest bank and pour them in a machine that counts it all, then puts it straight into my account free of charge. I reckon I've paid in around £2,000 over the years. Good little earner. Scrap metal is also a good earner. Thanks again and I hope to see you on my next episode. G

Hi Simon, as always thanks so much for your awesome comments and support. I can assure you I have dug a lot of crap over the last 10 years, probably a couple of tonnes of the stuff. Its part n parcel of metal detecting. Every now and again we are rewarded with something amazing. And these are 10 of those moments in my 10 years of metal detecting.

Hi Kimmy, if you are out there metal detecting every weekend, 7 or 8 hours at a time, week after week, month after month, year after, year, you will make finds like this if you metal detect on the right places. 10 years of my life went into making these finds, thanks for watching. Gareth

Hi Tom, thanks very much for watching. A top 10 artefact video is a great idea and something on my "to do" list.
