I’ve found a ROMAN SILVER COIN HOARD 🤩

What a day!! After all the hard work of marking the field with the hoard hunter whilst the ground was frozen the farmer only goes and ploughs it…. but every cloud has a silver lining 😆 🤩 🪙 🪙 🪙

"Troops on campaign were not allowed to gamble nor carry gaming devices. They were, however, allowed and expected to carry extra musket balls, usually in a shot pouch which was normally checked by the heft rather than by looking inside. The unit‘s Blacksmith would use a hammer to flatten the balls and tap in the "pips" with a nail. The troops would hide their imperfect "dice" in the shot pouch as they blended in well with their musket balls, safe from the Sergeant's eye yet available for a quick game of Hazzard at the camp fire. Even with the musket ball cubed into a die, it could still be loaded into and fired from the musket which is where we get the term “shooting dice”."

Best metal detecting channel! Not only do you unearth the most interesting finds, but you know the history to go with your finds. I am sure you subscriber totals will increase rapidly in a short time.

What awesome finds! Every time I coin shoot here in the US and pull something up from the 19th century or earlier I am awe struck. That you can find such treasures like that in Scotland with such history is mind blowing! I'm truly jealous!

[@esones1478]

So incredible to find so many artifacts in one place, Roman coins no less! If I were you I would want to understand why so many artifacts in close proximity. Did the field originally contain a trade route, a village? It's another piece of an historical puzzle. I don't know what you plan to do with your finds, but I would encourage you to record them somehow with the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland or similar. Artifacts in the context of an ancient civilization or significant geographical region have an important historical context. By the way, I'm very impressed with your knowledge of early Roman history and your enthusiasm!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks JM. The earliest denarii are very high silver content, around 98% I believe. They started to be debased around 150/200Ad Reducing to around 84% and then further to 50% around 250ad

Cleanest Romans I've ever seen showing signs of a hoard or tipping a pot perhaps on ploughing found a good few last year down south well done

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Much appreciated. I agree, don’t think they’ve been exposed to the elements for long and given the field was deep ploughed last year for potatoes I think there’s a hoard just beyond our reach that the plough is clipping especially as the finds are all strung out in a line! Albert got another one today…. Commodus again which bring us to 144 denarii from this field

[@suellendunlop2029]

Dear Mr Perthshire (John) It’s nearly killed me to wait over 24hrs since getting your latest video notification but this was the first opportunity to watch with my partner and my life would of been made very miserable if I hadn’t waited. But boy it was worth the wait. You have such incredible and varied history. Every paddock every location has a different era of amazing relics to be found, sometimes I wonder how you choose which paddock shall it be today 🤔 Where I live I have Australian Aboriginal history in the form of scar trees and axe grinding grooves, land grants weren’t issued to us white folk till the 1830’s there’s relics to be found but to have what you and the Scottish detectorists have access to on your doorstep you are very blessed and privileged. I’ve said it before but we’re are very fortunate that you allowed us to be apart of your world and we enjoy every detecting step you take, every find you make, your knowledge and history and we get excited when you do. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you. Looking forward to you on the next.

Much appreciated David. Many thanks. It was a truly amazing discovery and that’s now over 140 denarii from this field in total all pre 211Ad 🤩

[@thescottishdetectorist]

@heraldeventsandfilms5970 Ahh Jock. You’re back. I saw you had deleted your last comments but you must have missed this one. Hoping I can give you a mention in the next video. Your theory is interesting. I was at the National Museum in Edinburgh last week and not only did I see over 2,000 Roman silver coins from the Falkirk hoard from these exact emperors that I found in this video but the museum also excavated two small Roman hoards from this exact field 15 years ago. I’ll need to let them know that you don’t find Roman coins like this in Scotland. www.britnumsoc.org/publications/Digital%20BNJ/pdfs/2006_BNJ_76_3.pdf I can only assume this one is another eBay purchase too?? Don’t let history and facts get in the way of your paranoia

What a spectacular day!!! Bravo! And stop apologizing for being so stinkin' excited!!! I half expected a song and dance!!! I woulda' been doing cartwheels up and down the field!!! Keep going, can not wait to see what you bring up from the depths!!!

[@ClassicalNumismatics]

Brilliant find! Definitely a little 2nd century hoard there. Congratulations :)

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Fingers crossed more to come! A couple of people mentioned a few of the coins were ‘a bit silvery’. We’ve had over 140 denarii from this field from Marc Antony 40BC or so through to Septimus Severus around 210ad. The Septimus Severus silver are often almost black, as are the Marcus Aurelius silver coins but the rest are a mishmash from grey to the occasional bright silver. Two recent ones - one Commodus and one Antoninus Pius have been quite silvery, I was wondering if you thought that might be down to soil type or silver content or a bit of both or might it be an indicator those brighter coins might have come from a pot and haven’t been in the soil as long? Just wondering if they might be an indication we are closer to the hoard site, assuming of course there is one!! Many thanks for any help

There has just got to be more. Perhaps the denarii was stake money linked to the dice game?

Those Roman coins have been cleaned. I have seen dug Roman coins and they do not look like that. Silver tarnishes and bronze turns green. This is fake , the coins had to be planted for the video.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Joe. I’ve had a few comments about coins being too bright or silvery or what not but we’ve had over 300 silver romans of all shapes colours and tones, some encrusted green, others almost black. Two hoard have been excavated from the site by archaeologists previously. We are in a river flood plain and some souls like sand. It varies the colour and look of the coins. I don’t think anyone would be kind enough to plant 300+ denarii and two Roman coin hoards for me, so I just keep on hunting and people will think what they think. Best wishes John
