FANTASTIC WAY to start the New Year- Finding a STUNNING RELIC & Treasures!

[@SmittyLS]

That sandwich was the find of the day 😋

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

Hahaha... We found one each time we go treasure hunting :)

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Yes 😂 one of the best finds of the day 🤪

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Yes, and covered in aluminium foil already, that’s how you get the signal of the sandwich

[@SmittyLS]

@thespanishdetectorist 😂

[@Cathydavidson061]

Hi Simon, I really like that disk type thing! you can really see it is a person on a horse wearing cape! The light box made it really visible..Cool! x Cathy

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

St. george?

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Yes, probably one the best finds of 2025🤩. Really beautiful depiction, perhaps a goddess… I didn’t find any similar depiction in internet though

[@thespanishdetectorist]

I don’t think is St George, his depiction usually is with a horse in two legs killing a dragon 🤔

[@robinmcclellan1870]

You're off to a great start to 2025! Nice finds and thank you for sharing lunch!

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you for your visit Robin! Hopefully nice finds to share with you in 2025! See you for the next one

[@jeffkinslow2529]

A good start for the new year ,good luck on the next hunt.

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

new haircut for new finds :)

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Exactly 😂

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Jeff, a good start, hopefully keep going for a while 😅

[@PixieStirling]

Thanks Simon great start to 2025, the small disc looks as though it’s a rider and horse. Keep up the great work.❤️❤️

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you, hope you are having some nice finds to start the year too in your area. Yes, perhaps is a goddess depiction…🤷🏻‍♂️

[@tricial4330]

Always a pleasure to join you on these adventures. I agree with @SmittyLS, that sandwich looks delicious! Yummo!! Cool medallion-really sets the imagination to work! Happy New Year!!

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

Haha.. and all attention goes toooo.... "sandwich" :)

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you. 🤩 Shame i will not be able to bring these sandwiches for the rest of the year. Will see how i survive 🤪

[@tricial4330]

@@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion You'll always be the star of the show, Simon! But that sandwich... 😋

[@Leanne-juk05]

Brilliant start to the new year Simon! Thank you for going through the settings you use, really helpful

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Glad it was helpful! Yes, that was the highlights of some settings, but with time is when you start to learn the good and bad signals. Other people would use other settings but you get different noises so you need to get used to it again…

[@jamesaitchison3750]

a good start to the new year Simon , love the look of the sandwich thanks again cheers

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you James! Yes in 2 min was gone 😅

[@jaymac1159]

Nice finds and some good looking lunch!

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Jay! Yes a good picnic for a detecting day 😅👍

[@mandybrown7758]

Great hunt 😊

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Fantastic Mandy, glad you enjoyed it!

[@donaldrutter1738]

That is a great find Simon it may be a saint of some kind you should ask John. Thanks for sharing.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Donald, yes i asked John too, but still remains a mystery…

[@johnburns5783]

Well done Simon 👍👍

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you John, happy you enjoyed the first dig of the year👍

[@tanithmessenger3581]

Awesome find, looks like a version of George killing the dragon?! Sandwich looked delish!

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Could be another version, but is missing the dragon and the lance…. Thank you and see you for the next one!

[@tanithmessenger3581]

@@thespanishdetectorist Oops I'm seeing things that aren't there hahaha - very welcome, just about to watch your recent vid now 🙂

[@karlhubberstey3043]

Looking forward to this Simon

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Hope you enjoy it Karl! Thank you!

[@sofia_ines]

Great video! Loved the finds 😊! Ah and lombo e presunto de cerdo muito bom!!👍

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Muito obrigado Sofia. Tamen tinha un queijo portugués de cabra, mais ja o terminara 🤪

[@NathanPowers-y5g]

Great Video Simon, Great Start of the New Year, No Weather for Detectorist here, but got some warm Socks for these types of temperatures, get with John how too,Thanks Always, Take Care, Indiana Nathan.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Indiana, that’s right, no weather for detectorists, we have to get out when we can. Take care and see you in the next one!

[@pauldixon3384]

Some cool finds Simon

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Paul, glad you enjoyed it again!👍

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

Heeey Simon!, broher!!! New haircut brought you some sweet finds :) This meddalion with a horse rider is really amazing... We think it's a St.George killing the dragon under him.. St.George is a saint that protects England.. SO it could be older than you think!!! COngratulations bro! We are waiting for new episodes.. ( and new sandwiches ) :)

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Hey my friends! Not sure if could be St George, he usually appears with different image and handling a lance. This looks to me like a woman wearing a cape, galloping a horse,and below the horse looks like a wing…. But just my suggestion, nothing certain 👍🤘

[@LoliAlPe]

Que buena pinta los bocadillos 😊

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Se terminaron en nada😅

[@algiordano9214]

Happy New Year Simon, good luck in 2025. Al, NJ, USA

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Happy new year, looking forward to share many finds with you in this year

[@BrianOakesHaitiHunter]

Find at 17:00 looks like part of a gas fired wall sconce.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Brian, I think so, it makes more sense

[@lawrencescott7014]

Hi Simon, when performing a noise cancellation, you must ensure the detector head is away from the ground and pointed up in the air. This is very important!!

[@thespanishdetectorist]

You are correct, thank you Lawrence. I skipped that 😅

[@ianhoward5493]

Hi Simon, the find at 17 minutes or so i think is a 1950's radiator valve key for bleeding air from radiator central heating system. Nice finds to start 2025.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Ian, yes i think you are right. Perfect!

[@Earth-Chiming]

Good show. You are lucky to detect. Even if I feel for you that it's so muddy. Colorado Springs, Colorado USA is frozen snow buried ground.

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

He grab some warm temperature in Spain... :)

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Colorado has to be a wonderful place, but much more freezing than here by now. But yes , the only problem was the mud, not great to handle 🤪

[@davidstrother496]

You had some interesting finds. I think the winder is for a mantle clock. The horse and rider find is great, I hope you can track down some information about it. Cheers from Texas.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you David, yes this find needs to be reported to the museum and probably they would be able to track down some information

[@tonyaxeman4381]

Clock key for winding and adjusting the time .

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Tony, 👍

[@isaiahpetersen]

Great video, Simon! If I had one suggestion to make these better, it would be to use some lotion on those hands. The state of your cuticles is horrendous and seeing it in high def is driving me mad.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Isaiah! Noted, yes the freezing temperatures and handling metals makes the thing a bit difficult. I have an avocado hand cream, i will use it for next times 😅

[@jamesconnell1531]

Your best find looks like Alexander the great a beautiful wee find mi Amigo

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you amigo ! I will have a look in depictions of him, etc Take care James!

[@lyndastrait]

I like the relics the best, even better than the coins. But even Scottish Quality trash is interesting if you’re more accustomed to United States trash, at least it’s different.

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Yes, i find relics much more interesting than many coins. Glad you enjoyed Lynda!

[@bwc1878]

Never mind the fantastic finds - are those huge slices of meat chorizo in your sandwich during the intro? I'm suddenly very, very hungry!

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Oh yes! That was one of the highlights of the day for me. Unfortunately will be gone soon 🤪

[@donreed417]

Good start Simon

[@thespanishdetectorist]

Thank you Don! Jumping to 2025 with some good finds🎉
