[@EmilyBoltz]

Oh my stars!!! This camera is a game changer ! John I hope you might look at some of your other finds with that camera and share them. It is so exciting to get to see that much detail! Thank you Emma!!!❤❤❤

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

We shall see this lens on a field, targeting Simons backon sandwiches 😅😅

[@jeffbrown4382]

Man, the story the faces of those coins tell. Not just the work of the craftsmen, but the sediment and scratches. It just makes the find so much better, seeing them in such detail.

[@raydunhill5160]

Wow John!! Wonderful video,Beautiful Coins and one Hell of a lens!!!! Really enjoyed Sir!!! Congrats!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jamesaitchison3750]

John this lens is outstanding, the detail it gives wow will be looking forward to new finds ,thanks again cheers

[@paulahiggins4301]

Great new piece of kit!! To be able to see all the minute details, it gives me a whole new appreciation for the incredible workmanship of the long ago artisans. Thanks again for sharing your treasurers. Merry Merry Christmas to you, your family, and "the Boys"

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

That lens will be an outstanding addition to your documentation arsenal. Cheers, and ATB!

[@TedCallaway]

Gorgeous coins John! Thanks for sharing. Excellent!

I’ve been a metal detector since 1977, I actually have a Deus 2 but had a severe accident that left me paralyzed and that is when I discovered KZbin. The fact that you can pull a small relic from the Bronze Age at just about every opportunity is just mind numbing mate. You, Martin, Simon & The Hoover Boys have ruined my detecting career 😂😂 All the love mate! Well done this year! Always excited to see a new video from the Bonnie fields of Pertshire! Have a lay down mate- well deserved ❤❤❤

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

Sorry to hear that, but detectorist enthusiast and history lover..allways stays passionate.. Take care mate!

[@StevenMiller-cx4rr]

@ Well, unbelievably enough, I’m learning to walk again and haven’t sold the Deus yet- I’m to mean to give up. You stay safe! Dig it all mate!

[@martinjervis1558]

Fantastic footage John and how handy for cleaning finds 🤩

[@ritamahlberg8602]

I love these detailed photographs so much. Watched a video about cleaning those coins with thorns of a shrub. Worked good without scratching. Hope you can keep that lens. Wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year from Germany

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

With this lens..you can even see how much damage u did on a coin , if it's not cleaned properly..

[@PixieStirling]

All three are stunning, but the Scottish silver is definitely the best. Thanks John ❤❤❤❤

[@Tom-ff5ro]

Hi John, glad you could keep them. But how? Didn't the Museum wanted them? How did you share with the Land owner?

[@sniddley]

Your new lens is incredible, the clarity is remarkable, thanks for sharing those three coins, keep-em safe. Hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and peaceful new year’s Wishing you continued success hunting treasures. Kevin

A very merry Christmas to you and yours, John. I hope the ground thaws soon. The snow looks very inviting. We've already had some sweltering days in Melbourne and it looks to be warming up again. All the very best in the coming year. Cheers. 🎄🎁👍

[@bonnerdebbie]

Stunning coins John, thanks for sharing!

[@borc013]

Thanks, John. Great views. Merry Christmas 🎉

[@mikepetrucha2774]

Thanks for showing the coins with the new lens. That must have taken incredible skill to carve those dies.

[@LaurieLeeAnnie]

I really enjoyed this video! Can we have more of your pre-KZbin finds to fill in on days you can’t detect? The lens worked great!

[@Simonize41]

What a cracking Macro lens. I will definitely give them a look and consideration. They should have given you a discount code, John, even if just for Christmas. All the best. Stay warm. 🥃👍🏻

[@garysmith1178]

Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@eileencarroll6418]

Well Done on the photography. Very enjoyable detail. Happy Christmas and prosperous detecting in the New Year. Wishing you sooner silver in 2025 than in 2035. Would love follow up videos of some of the finds you were going to take to a jeweler or a museum. Especially if you can give us a closer look with the new lens.

[@DustanThedell-xk1zn]

The Dragons dropped your coins my friend!

[@ruthhutchens1384]

stunning game changer

[@michaelturner1435]

Frozen ground won't stop you if you invest in or even hire a small mechanical digger. We have one here in Australia that is tiny with soft tracks. They are mainly used for digging narrow trenches and go down about 1 metre. It's called the dingo.

[@NathanPowers-y5g]

Thanks John,Indiana.

[@lastplacetrophy3821]

This should be great for hallmarks!

[@randallhesse5011]

Frozen ground days might be a good time to use the hoard hunter metal detector. Just to mark, and take note of the spot to dig at a later time, being that their won't be many targets to be found with the hoard hunter any way. Just don't let us know where they are until after you've finally have got around to digging them at a time when the ground is not frozen.

[@LukeField-y5z]

Nice piece of kit that camera. Do you have a link to get one.

[@tonilauge5786]

Would n't have believed 3,5 years ago. That this channel 10:50 would grow enough. To Sponsors noticed it. 🙏 Please Specsavers subscribers Need that John get🤓 Most common sentence this year! Its a stone?? And I dropped it!! Thankey for all the hard work. May the future be Properus😜❤️🎁

[@alanlucas2886]

merry xmas john and family

[@jillianfortuna2348]

[@Miss_Toots]

What!? You're a man that actually reads the instructions!? 😂😂

[@PaulaSmith-vg9ez]

My dad calls them destructions,which is the opposite of what he's supposed to achieve lol

[@Miss_Toots]

@PaulaSmith-vg9ez 😂

[@charlieculp3956]

You bastard...I'm in !

[@RhudeIslander]

Great cold weather content! Best wishes? Edit…Best wishes!

[@TC-tn9tb]

you get to keep the gold?

[@nancyweems5270]

Nice camera

[@Mark-r4v1f]

Hi John, the gold noble Richard the 2nd coin. If I'm hearing right did you say the name Rickard? Because if you did that's my surname. I must be a long lost relative 😂👍

[@tonilauge5786]

Hope you're ending up buried under A parking lot hated as hell back when He lived! Merry X-,christmas

[@DustanThedell-xk1zn]

Hell with the museums, they were just probably pocket them themselves! I found a $70 gold ring at the gas pump on road and didn't turn it in because those guys are probably crooks themselves!

[@ashm3697]

why are the 1's written as a J on a lot of old coins
