Let’s go easy on Simon. I sense he responds & appreciates positive comments more so than jabs. Just an observation from afar. Love your channel….and Simons channel also. I watch both.

[@angiebechaz4648]

I felt a bit that way today. A bit jabbier than usual 🙄 Love you guys and the banter normally 😊

[@Ezio334]

14:50 found an auction denoting it as a 1920's Sheffield Weekly Telegraph "Kind Hearted Brigade" Club Medal

[@RobPoleij]

1811 King George III 1 Shilling & Sixpence Silver Bank Token (Eighteenpence), value 330 euro

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Rob! Hope you enjoyed. I didn’t know such a thing existed until I found it!! Amazing and thanks for watching and taking the time to comment

[@guiart4728]

And it is in good condition compared to some I have seen on line. Saw one not nearly as nice for 270 Pounds!

[@HLBear]

Your thought was right: "These intriguing coins were struck in the latter years of the Napoleonic Wars as the conflict led to financial instability in Britain and the mass hoarding of gold and silver coins. The Royal Mint could not keep up with demand for replacement currency and - as a temporary measure - began issuing tokens. First, in the form of countermarked Spanish coinage and later as these fascinating Bank Tokens which circulated as legal tender coinage."

[@HanstheTraffer]

@@HLBear I wonder if those inspired the "US Pattern Coins" that came out in the mid 1800's Those are beautiful coins and rare.

[@artpeck9272]

I thought maybe grape shot?

[@peterlauter3505]

You and Simon should swap machines for a day of detecting.. would be interesting. love the videos John.

[@bf3075]

Simon is back! Awesome! Great to see the tag team back at it! Fantastic day! Thank you for taking us along with you!

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

[@baystateplugflipper7061]

Wow!! Outstanding day, well done gents!!

[@lordleonusa]

Samuel Morse, a New York University professor of painting and sculpture, began working on his version of the telegraph in 1832. Morse was inspired to develop the telegraph after hearing about the discovery of the electromagnet while sailing home from Europe. He spent several years developing a prototype with the help of his partners, Leonard Gale and Alfred Vail. In 1837, Morse received a patent for his electromagnetic telegraph, which used a portarule with built-in dots and dashes. In 1838, Morse presented his invention to Congress, demonstrating how dots and dashes represented letters and numbers using Morse code.

[@Jean.Feigion]

I felt like I needed a lie down watching this fabulous day of detecting. Wonderful.

[@elizabethrobertson1159]

So exciting! I've, literally, been on the edge of my seat for the last hour. Well done!

[@davidperry5631]

Grape shot from a cannon? Great video as usual. I am spending my time hunting for mushrooms today. Shot a very nice turkey a few days ago. Also been digging bottles and arrowheads.

[@phrayzar]

Simon is such an eternally cheerful fellow, always nice to see him.

[@SheilaLS]

As always, thanks for taking us along on your treasure hunt.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks for joining me in the journey Sheila. What a day it was!! I could do with a few more like that, that’s for sure!!

[@carolmollman9809]

Thanks for superimposing the image of coins that haven’t been ravaged by time in the dirt! it really helps us visualize the finds. Giving us a bit of history as context makes it even more fun. Good editing!

[@kimberlymolitor354]

Wow!! Simon brought you luck today!! The bank token was my favorite!!🥰🥰🥰

[@znarkz]

Your Chanel is amazing mate! I’m from Sweden and i just received my X Terra Pro a couple of days ago and yesterday I found my first silver coin 😊. It’s really nice and addictive hobby. A few years ago I went to Scotland and traveled around the country with car for a week and if I compare that trip with all other vacations I’ve done Scotland is at the top when it comes to hospitality and helpfulness. The people were really nice and kind. I literally thought that if people were like the Scott’s it would be world peace! Thanks for awesome uploads!

[@rhettoracle9679]

Astounding day! Glad you got a "token of our appreciation"! Cheers from New Orleans

[@michaelclarke-rn7eo]

Hi John , what you thought could have been a cap badge I believe is part of a flattened oil lamp wick burner, that holds the glass chimney, likely Victorian

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

Perfect finds!!!

[@hippyhay1659]

Great hunt! The George lll bank token was awesome.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks. Glad you liked. Very rare and very unusual and ANOTHER one for the museum!! 😜

[@ShaePreston]

What a incredible day I went metal detecting today and found a William 3 penny👍👍👍

[@eileenpritchard9154]

[@shooterjohn7163]

John you had one of your better days as of late. That George III Bank Token is a nice piece and has a bit of value. Congratulations on a good day in the field.

[@HeavyMetalDetectingPassion]

greaaat!!!

[@paulinesalinas9443]

What a day you certainly did have 🤩🤩🤩 amazing variety of finds and did people feed the birds with their coins in that field?! That bank token is a really beautiful and lucky find - worth a nice little amount but I guess as most detectorists do, you’ll keep it, I know I would 😍. Simon needs to get himself a Deus 2! Well done John and well done good old Deus 👏 Great to see you with Simon again. Enjoyed the light box and to see how the silver stands out.

[@ouzalghost8411]

An amazing days dig John I cant believe the amount of coins you found along with the excellent 1/ 6d token and medallions. Very well done paI really enjoyed it, I'll now go and watch Simon's video of his side of the days event's 👍👍

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks Maureen. Can’t believe how many medallions we get too!! Amazing day and triple silver and that bank token just wow 😮

[@Commandamanda]

You got me excited with that hand cannon shot! I have used a handmade one as part of a medieval restoration group! We used to call them stick cannons, as they were stuck on the end of what felt like a long broomstick. You would place the end of the long stick against the ground when firing, affording no kickback (since the ground absorbed the shock). They certainly didn't have great aim, but made an impression with a big bang and whoosh sound!

[@kaare65]

Brilliant 💯

[@joanhamilton2651]

Fantastic!

[@susanfrancis3966]

Silver bank tokens were issued due to a coin shortage during Napoeonic wars. Nice find and pretty valuable.

[@Fred-tr8zg]

Great video great finds I enjoyed the video. 🇺🇸

[@Chris17198]

[@AlbertD711]

Your Bank Token is in the Spink book as S-3771. It's a very nice find. Congratulations on a great day of detecting.

[@nancymatteson5234]

They apparently fling coins randomly about in Scotland, all through the ages

[@margaretbarclay-laughton2086]

Aye and they say the Scots are mean😂

You two are brilliant, best metal detecting channel ever Love to you both from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@garysmith1178]

Great days digging there John. I found a George III three shilling bank token 1811 a couple of years back. Unfortunately it had been nailed to a post and used for pistols target practice. The portrait was ruined but the reverse wasn't too bad.

[@bobbybaker1060]

Great lot of finds John Bank token was really nice well found

[@petesquarterlifecrisis887]

Thanks for the entertainment today John. Fun finds!

[@JolieBlanchardBrown]

Wow John, what a day you had. Great finds! Thanks for sharing with us!

[@michaelwyatt1143]

We are getting too much rain down this end of the country to get out with the detector. (Oxfordshire). Luckily we have your videos to watch. Thanks. Good viewing again.

[@stephenlovingood8836]

Very good finds. I watched the live stream after the fact because it was at 0300 in the morning here in Okinawa Japan when it was live...got to get my beauty sleep you know.

[@steveshepherd2712]

You had a fabulous day ! Love the George 3 token , here in Canada there was a severe shortage of small change in the 1820 's so bank tokens and merchant tokens were issued to fill the gap ( counterfeit tokens a.k.a. blacksmith tokens also produced ) . I have been fortunate to have found these but am still waiting for a silver one 😉 Well done John 👍

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Man you thanks and best wishes. Clearly a global money shortage! Many thanks

[@chuckblankenship4811]

Happy to see that over the last several videos you have remembered to turn up the large numbers readout on the Deus.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Chuck!!! It took me about 20 attempts to remember but I got there in the end 🤪 best wishes and enjoy the video

[@teresaphillips5027]

AMAZING Day for you!! So many coins! Also, I love the way you say "Mr. Potato Head."" :-) It always makes me smile.

Best day John ! 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations!

[@basilbrushbooshieboosh5302]

When you said that you had good quality vid this time, at the beginning, I thought you meant the picture quality, because, your picture was of the most outstanding clarity throughout this video. No fade-in's from fuzzy focus as per usual, as you and most other vids do. The clarity was great, the contrast was great, the colour, and it was a beautiful bright day, that brought out all the features as well. Spot on lads.

[@GaryandtheGooseDetecting]

You guys are so good together ,great stuff ,thanks!

[@glendamears3618]

GREAT stuff guys 😊❤❤

John,SImon,so many coins for John.blessings

[@muzzychuck]

I have a couple of silver George III five pence bank tokens, both marked as Irish. I assumed the tokens were only issued in Ireland until I saw your video, so there's been a lot of learning for me in the last hour, very much helped by some of the comments here 👍
