2 years ago! A mystic prediction! 🤩 GOLD HAMMERED and a RIDICULOUS tent!

[@ouzalghost8411]

Cleggy is not wrong John and I would say for content, knowledge and presentation your channel stands out far in front of the rest. I've watched a lot of MD channels and for me I've narrowed down my viewing content down to 2 Gary Blackwell for his excellent skills and excellent knowledge and, your channel for all the previous reasons given above and,you deliver every time in your presentation even if you don't, find anything of real interest. Incidentally, that's a cracking piece of gold you guy up. Cheers John and, keep the vids coming. 😁👍

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks as ever for the kind words!! Your support is fantastic and greatly appreciated! Maybe I’ll see you on some future fields. Best wishes

[@nickharmer3049]

I remember the rapturous joy & excitement, viewing you take that beauty out of the ground. Long may it continue.! "John from way up north somewhere with the lovely accent"! Shout out to Clegg. Bless up bro 👊

[@suzilouden5964]

What a fab video with an epic finale - the legs hanging out the tent. Gold in every sense....❤️

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Haha 😂 my best find and worst camping experience all in one 😂

[@ChristyWerpy-sl5oq]

Good times...😂

[@leannenz3543]

Everything about that video made me smile and giggle. Thanks so much!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks for the kind words Leanne and the support!! Best wishes

[@happymack6605]

Cleggy gave your channel a nice glow up! I remember my eyes getting big as saucers watching as you unearthed that noble 😮🎉

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks. Happy memories and a nightmare tent ⛺️ 😂

[@davidstrother496]

I do love the humor of the video. Thanks for including the shout out video, I had never seen it before. And now, here you are over 33K subscribers!!! I hope to see you and Simon with something epic soon. Cheers from Texas.

[@AlterMann57]

John, I remember watching that video as though it was yesterday, have I really been watching your channel for two years? You are the best metal detectorists of all, because no-one else gives a wee history lesson about the origin of the coins and relics as you do. Thank you so much for being you, and please make a video with you and silly Simon when the rain ceases (if it ever does at this time of the year). All the best to you.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Hi James. Time flies doesn’t it!! Glad to report the detecting with Simòn went well today!!! Hopefully a video coming tomorrow. It’ll be a long one but wow, a couple of great great finds!!!! 🤩

[@jeffbrown4382]

John, I believe I found you around that time because I watched WCC. At the risk of waxing poetic, you didn't find gold - we did. We all live in a time where most ignore history, shun it, even. I believe your channel's growth lies in the fact that you convey that history is worth knowing and understanding. You are a steward, and I'm grateful for your efforts. Keep swinging and talking, it's worthwhile.

[@idigdaytona4478]

Cleggy is how I found you. lol Well done !

[@raydunhill5160]

😉 Watched this clip a dozen times and still get excited for you John!! What dreams and tears are made of!! Cleggy also is a true U-Tube legend and such a well deserved shout out to you! What an incredible look back video Sir as you are trully the master of detecting arts!!! Congrats John and I could watch your videos forever!!! 🤗👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@paigepooler9036]

I think I started watching your channel about a year ago so never saw this. What an epic find and fun video!!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks Paige and thanks for your support!

[@davidhubbard8196]

Excellent clip John... and what a find! As Clegg predicted - you will go far. Keep up the great work.

[@placemystique2]

I always look forward to your videos and what a great day that was! Mate, you're such a good person, great detectorist and film maker, and you bring humour and knowledge to our lives. you deserve all of these incredible finds! Cheers and here's to continued abundance!

[@WestCountryClegg]

Thanks John, I've only just seen your video I've been busy doing rally analysis. My little shout out was quite amusing to rewatch. I've been corresponding with the British Museum to try and get a better way of reporting finds. But it looks like they're digging their heels in to join the 21st century. Cheers Cleggy

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Cheers Mr Cleggy. Wow how time flies… two years

[@jerrygale1994]

Simply amazing find. Cleggy is funny. That tent was pants

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Haha 😂 best detecting find and worse camping weekend all in one 😂

[@Chris17198]

John ..Mystic Cleggs prediction is undoubtedly correct … you are going far with this channel .. out of all the metal detectors yours is most definitely the best … your attention to detail is second to none … your history lessons are incredible .. you have the most funny sense of humour … and your catch phrase “welcome to the fields of Perthshire “ as caught everyone’s attention not to mention it’s probably stuck in everyone’s head … And lastly your Scottish accent well what can I say …a delight to listen to … Hey I know I give you a little stick sometimes …in jest of course all in fun ..but I have no doubt this is the beginning of a successful career on KZbin for yourself ..your channel is growing in a incredible rate.. and may it continue to inspire others to subscribe and to take on metal detecting them selves …

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks for the kind words Chris. Much appreciated and thanks for the continued support!!

[@eileencarroll6418]

Thanks for revisiting this; I missed it back before I subscribed. Woo-hoo! Belated congratulations. WELL DONE AND MANY RETURNS.

[@Nicknofish]

Great memories, great video. Cheers.

[@paulinesalinas9443]

Well I completely agree on everything Cleggy says John he was dead right! There’s only you, we watch with Cleggy and Gary. Cleggy is a whiz on the maps etc and Gary on the Deus 2 skills but your detecting and commentary is a pleasure to watch and listen too 👏👏👏 . That gold hammered was amazing and didn’t realise Detectival was held on the Badminton estate before?

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks Pauline! You say the nicest things!! Yes two years ago September Detectival was held on the estate, about 2 miles away from this year and the land had been detected before just like this year. Hopefully not a third event there!!!

[@maureenhovey4305]

❤ You'll continue to have much success!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Much appreciated Maureen

[@girlnorthof60]

I've been binge watching your channel vlogs, going backwards in time. Highly recommend, I couldn't ask for better company. Cheers John and the "you Jammie- Swine" 😂great group you hang with. 👍

[@dgb56bgd]

Don’t drop it John. As always, a great video , my Scottish Detectorist friend. Blessings, from this old homesteader in Tennessee.

[@GaliSinatra]

OMG that was a good laugh seeing that again! Such a nice shout out from Clegg.

[@invisiblegypsy1328]

I agree, John is perfect in every way!

[@smoggysearcher3852]

Great to look back on this again John cleggy knew years ago your channel would come good well done mate keep up the hard work 👍

Much appreciated 🥳 and thanks for the continued support

“Agreeable Scottish accent” not like he’s going to give you a Glasgow kiss (I had to look that up). 😂 I remember that find and the lie down. Was it two years ago? Time flies. 🥰💕❤️👍👍

I have been watching you ever since cleggy gave the shout out.

[@tanjamorris5647]

What a great and generous shout out from Cleggy. He is a great guy. Your quarter noble find is one of my favorite moments. Wishing you and Simon a successful day and great finds. You’re guaranteed to get a few laughs. Btw, what is a Glasgow kiss?

[@AlterMann57]

Believe me, you don't want to know what a Glasgow kiss is.

[@BMW7series251]

A smack in the mouth or worse!!!@@AlterMann57

[@emilygarwood1373]

That’s around the time I started following you. Found you on TikTok with the tours. And was like why not watch a few. And I’m hooked.

[@bdewar6837]

Wow! What an amazing find! No wonder you had to have a lie down lol! 🤩

[@Fred-tr8zg]

Loved the video, Love me some Clegg too, Cheers. 🇺🇸

[@SuffolkSifter]

WOW! Gold Hammered, a bucket lister for me. Thought you found it at this year's Detectival 🤣, I must listen better, well done anyway🎉

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks! This Detectival all I found was a button and a musket ball…. Oh, and the beer tent 😂

[@keepdigginmetaldetecting]

So amazing! I rejoice with you. ❤LL

[@andymorris3523]

Wow, wow, wow !!! 20 years detecting and I'm waiting for my first gold hammie. Amazingly I had 2 bucket Listers in the last week though, a BA flat axe and a Saxon Styca ! Happy days 😀

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Amazing Andy! Perseverance pays off!! Happy hunting

[@youn8e]

ALTERATIONS... 🤣🤣🤣‼️💜💜💜

[@delsmith7725]

Seen it before but a nice reminder John. The tent legs had me laughing out loud 😁. Cleggy is awesome. Only reason I unsubscribed was because I couldn't keep up with all his videos and the OCD in be can't deal with that. I'd love to have a pint with him 🙂

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Cheers Del. Hope I see you again soon at a future dig!!

[@delsmith7725]

@@thescottishdetectorist I'm sure you will John. I wouldn't miss Detectival for the world. I'd also like to try the Rodney Cook main event. A bit closer for you guys too I think.

[@TrentenLobo]

Let's Go! Great find

[@AmyBee4]

Everything he said about you, I agree with. Yours is the only detectorist channel I watch. I'm not even a dectectorist enthusiast, but I find your videos very satisfying and relaxing. The perfect way to unwind before sleep. So, cheers and thank you for the entertainment, all the way from here in SUNNY Tucson, Arizona.

[@sheila3845]

I remember when you found that gold coin, it was epic

Amazing find! I’d have loved to see the coin cleaned. I’m sure it’s on your channel somewhere so I’ll have to go looking for it. Never seen that coin before so I’d love to see the details! Good job!

Beautiful coin, great shot out and a RIDICULOUS ⛺! Thanks John!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Haha, that tent. I still get nightmares 😂

[@hanzelman1963]

I followed that guy for a few weeks but am getting crazy of the sound of his detector, really, couldn't hear that sound anymore so i saw you and starting follow you, that guy has found hammered coins, also a gold one if i remember it...

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks! Yes, Cleggy has had a few gold including a medieval hoard 🤩

Thanks for the memories. That was an epic find. Here's to hoping the finds continue to be epic. 🍻

Thanks Teresa. Glad you enjoyed

[@kasie680]

I was waiting for it’s a FECKIN GOLD COIN!! 😂😂😂

[@lifelikeluresdeutschland5694]

Greetings to the Fields of Perthshire....Yes, Cleggy is a real Genius. He predicted 3 Days prior to the actual Detectival, that Field Number 41 is the most interesting Spot for the Event. He found signs for a Roman Building by his Programm there. When i know it right, the crazy Spaniard Detectorist had found the 2 incredible Silver Roman Coins exactly on that Spot...? So for all you YoungGuns, you can see how important it is, to listen to the Old Cowboys. They had forgotten already more, than you can learn in 2 lifes.....😂😂😂

[@rhettoracle9679]

Cleggy's video is why I subscribed (and your great content). Cheers from New Orleans

That coin is beautiful! Roughly what year was it made?

[@meganhulatt6779]

Well well, Westcountry Mystic Clegg strikes . 😅

[@coryengel]

Any detector who leaves behind litter deserves to miss gold. And due to their carelessness, probably will.

[@G-G9]

I can’t believe that was two years ago, it seems like yesterday!

[@bryanb1259]

👍

[@guyj3025]

Hopefully Cleg will now get a boost from your shout out as you have twice as many subs as he does, that two years has gone fast. Its been wonderful to see your channel go from strength to strength. A couple more epic finds and you will be pushing for a silver play button before 2025

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Much appreciated and thanks for your support! I’ve no idea what a silver play button is but I’ll go and google it 😂 best wishes

[@davewilson9738]

Did you get to keep the gold coin John? Or is it treasure trove?

Gert big coin

wait,,, what is that weed in the background,,, i mean,, i see thistles, and then maybe some burdock, but that other plant looks suspiciously like something that gets smoked,, lol, jk jk, free comment

Yeah but Clegg unfortunately went on to take my channel name. Not that great of a guy.

What you were also West Country Clegg?!?
