Your excitement as you found the gold coin was amazing. Can't imagine how good that feels after soooo much effort put in. Awesome work John!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks, the second hammered coin tipped me over the edge, a cut half is a great find, a gold on top is unreal and to get the hammered then ANOTHER wow i

[@jillianfortuna2348]

You were cracking me up!!!

[@jodychapple5351]

Your reactions are priceless. I still find all your videos just as awesome as the first day I found you. Thank you XOXO

[@Chris-zh1ff]

Well done

[@greenspiritarts]

What I love about your videos is how delightfully exuberant you are when something amazing comes out of the ground and into your hand. It is the sweetest thing, and you share it with all of us… It’s why we all enjoy your videos so much! Can’t wait for part two! I hope we get to see some of those Medieval tin cans you promised us!! 😂. Congratulations on the amazing finds!! ❤❤❤

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks for the kind words and I’m so glad you enjoyed. My excitement was somewhat over the top but I was in the moment 😂

[@PaulBrown-uj5le]

​@thescottishdetectorist don't you worry about anything in the video your excitement was genuinely real, so happy for you and I hope you have many more days like that day👍.

Hello from England - That beautiful little dog is the image of the little Cairn Terrier Who was my friend for 14 years. His pedigree name was Valentine because he was born on St.Valentines day. His house name was Rupert. He was the most intelligent, loving dog any one could have. He passed away in 2000 and I miss him every day still. Rupert was best friends with my son's Piranian Mountain dog and curled up together every night.

Your excitement had me laughing and crying I was so happy for you!!! That was so amazing and I cannot wait to see part two!!! My husband and I laugh about your “lie downs” after your excitement. We love watching you hunt! Keep it coming! BTW we’d love to “meet” your wife one day. She must have such patience. 😂 Congratulations on the beautiful finds and bring on some more!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Ahhh I’m thrilled for you John, after all the hard days of late in the rain too. The wee dog is smashing, I remember stuff being stamped ‘foreign’, usually old things from gt aunts house. Huge well done, fantastic finds 🙌🏻

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks 🥹 great info

[@jamesgraham8077]

Fantastic John, couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy - well deserved 👍

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Much appreciated James

[@andyc750]

your little dog is far from alone with being marked foreign, I remember objects from what must be pre mid1970's , probably made in China or Taiwan at a guess, and as for the rest it is well deserved, you provide much entertainment and spread some knoledge to the watchers and have easily earned what you have found so far this trip, congrats

[@andreamassari9099]

Amazing finds! Love the history you find...and your little dog, too 😊 congratulations 🎉

[@Laura-Kitty]

Your excitement & positive happy attitude make for the best metal detecting videos on KZbin, bar none. You deserve to find the treasure trove to end all treasure troves! I also adore the little history lessons that go along with each coin, especially the bit where you tell us just how many pints each coin would have purchased. It puts it all in perspective. Cheers! 🍺 🪙🪙🪙👑🪙🪙🪙

[@mollyfritz-beckers6821]

All the days of tin cans, ring pulls, buttons and lead blobs are blown away with such amazing finds this day. Your glorious reward for perseverance. No wonder its so emotional. Hope you felt the 35K hugs from your subscribers. Congratulations, John, couldn't happen to a better lad. Can't wait for part 2.

[@tanjamorris5647]

Holy Batman John, what a day, what a find! Your excitement is the best. Sure beats a collection of religious tin cans. Truly a GORGEOUS GEORGE. Congrats, you deserve it with all the hard work you put into your hobby and the channel. Couldn’t be happier for you

[@bogdan.murarescu]

Congratulations on the discovery. I follow you and love the way you explain each discovery, congratulations once again. I've been detecting for 3 years and yesterday I found my first gold, it's a small book that someone lost from the chain around the neck, it was a unique sensation and I didn't know how to react... I wish you good luck in the future and looking forward to the next video. Greetings from Romania.👋👋🤩🤩

[@xCLUNKx]

I'd like to see it

[@bogdan.murarescu]

​@@xCLUNKx how can i show you??

[@davidstrother496]

Now that was worthy of more than one wee lie down, John. The cut half was amazing on its own, but the full hammered coins, plus the George gold is just fantastic. So I can't blame you for the excitement, I know I would have been the same. Now we just have to wait for part 2. Cheers from Texas.

[@muzzychuck]

Love it 😁 Thank God it's a two-parter. Ninety minutes of you bawling would probably put me off my tea 😉
