[@stephenbeck4636]

Agree on reporting. As a history major history is for all.

[@rebekahleech5354]

Brilliant loved the museum beautiful fantastic building me best museum and loved all the Roman finds 👍

[@blisteringbarnaclesmagnets6364]

Brilliant video so much history 💙😊🧲⚓️👍

[@kennethgarrow5692]

I think it’s awesome and righteous to hand in item to the museum ❤good job saving history. Some of the items have been waiting 4000 years two more is nothing 😊

[@suzilouden5964]

What a fabulous video beautifully narated. Thank you John.....❤

[@donaldrutter1738]

Thanks for the update John and I am really happy your detector is ok. I just love watching this channel and the stories you give us with the finds. Hope to see something on your other channel too Scottish Tours. The museum is amazing and beautiful. Thanks for sharing and hello from Don In Ohio.

[@seisobs1]

Only one word can sum up this video John - Brilliant 👏

[@tammykaltreider]

I just want to say thank you…I’m watching from the USA 🇺🇸 and I’m able to see so much history through your channel John that I truly feel blessed. This world of ours really isn’t so big, ya know? 🥰✌️🤍

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Tammy. Glad you enjoyed!! Lots more of this type of video coming to my tour channel VisitScotlandTours!! So watch this space!!

[@tammykaltreider]

@@thescottishdetectorist I’m subscribed to that channel also! (Well of course I am…)

[@jaydurtsche2569]

So true I'm from Wyoming and learn so much from John

[@chezaspup]

I'm British and thought I knew an awful lot of our history, how very wrong I was! I've learned so much from John, I visit Scotland regularly as my daughter lives near Glasgow, I try and visit as many places as I can, Stirling Castle is next on my list! Love Chez in Lliria, Valencia Spain 😘

[@SassSafras]

I have noticed when I am out n about in the woods, that our climate near Pittsburgh, is right on time with Scotlands. The same flowers and mushrooms bloom at the same time. I used to watch a girl who went on walks around Scotland, took photos, and came home and painted them. I don't believe her channel is any longer active as she moved across Scotland. But I also photograph and paint flowers, bugs, mushrooms, ect that I find here. And low and behold every time she would be painting the same object as me the following week. I imagine it took her about a week to get the painting done and the video uploaded so that would make it the same time they popped up here. I plan on going to Scotland in 2025 or 2026, and hope to be able to confirm my suspicions. So you are absolutely right.. it is a Small world. Take care.

[@scottf-detecting]

Wonderful, I dream of seeing Scotland someday.

[@sheila3845]

i remember when the bull was found Your coil had an attitude, LOL that was cool to see inside the museum, thank you

[@franceshurt3517]

Hi John, thank you so much for this wonderful, informative vid, I was enthralled the whole time, didn't want it to end, you're looking young and healthy, that museum is stunning for its architecture and exhibits, you could wander around for days and still not see enough, the Scots are very lucky to have it, bye and thanks again, cheers!!🥰💕👌👍👍👍

[@ryandodson1026]

I’ve recently found a bull mount in south wales. I wouldn’t have known what it was had I not kept upto date with your videos mate.

[@jameswilson6717]

Brilliant video pal that bull almost looks Egyptian in stature don’t you think?Also us Scot’s like to call the glitch ‘a brain fart’ 😂 technology seems to do this once in a while.All the very best 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@russelldunbar2474]

It makes me wish my great grandfather stayed in Scotland

[@jenibylsma9845]

Just stumbled across your channel. Thoroughly enjoyed watching - thank you so much … 😁 I have lived in Australia for decades, and although UK born and bred, I have many happy memories of time spent in Scotland visiting my Uncle Jock and Aunty Aileen. You sound very much like my uncle … 😁 so nice to hear that lovely accent … subscribed 😜

[@robinsmith5442]

I loved the kitty! The museum was special too.

[@tricial4330]

183!?!?! Fantastic! Thoroughly enjoyed hearing your news, and seeing the museum tour as well. You are the perfect advocate for the museum and the finds scheme, they should take you up on the idea. I think Regton needs to play Santa Claus a bit early or late, and gift you a brand new detector.

[@shortyrogers2244]

I enjoyed this video. The history is incredible. Scotland is definitely on my bucket list. Thank you, John

[@kathyastrom1315]

When we were in Scotland 11 years ago, this was the one museum we visited In Edinburgh. I loved it!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Agreed Kathy. I could spend hours and hours in there!!

[@The-skillschool]

Great info, thanks for sharing

[@jillianfortuna2348]

👍👍👍

[@megwolff58]

Thanks so much! This was a real treat.

[@davidstrother496]

Thanks for the info. I had no idea it takes so long for the museum to process and report. Now I'm looking forward with great anticipation to your next videos. I'm so glad you broke the 2024 silver jinx at last. Cheers from Texas.

[@suellendunlop2029]

Thanks so much for sharing.

[@rudinuissl8677]

I was wondering about Albert’s bull just yesterday. In fact went back and watched the video where it was found. Still one of the best reactions to a find!

[@susanoraczewski7972]

John, Thank you so much for the tour of the museum. That was amazing! Always watching from Florida.

[@cocojo242]

Very interesting, thank you.

[@lesroberts2244]

Thanks again for your hard work,,,,, very interesting..

[@jahmellesherman8224]

183!!! That’s fantastic, John. It’s a shame they wouldn’t let you film like they did when you took the bull to be looked over.

[@dthomp06]

Love the National Museum in Edinburgh. We visit every time we come home. Glad to hear your detector is working again.

[@maureenhovey4305]

I was just wondering how it went. You must be very proud! Thanks so much for sharing! ❤ More treasures to come! 😊

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks Maureen. I really wish I could have filmed but alas not to be…. But I’ll work on them!!

[@thomashuelsman9641]

This is Thomas from San Antonio TEXAS your platform is so cool and I look for you day by day

[@meredithgreenslade1965]

Sounds like Australia Post has a competitor. Lol. So glad everything goes to the museum. If I ever get to Scotland I will definitely visit the museum. Love the kitty

[@lindaquinn7858]

Wow! What a beautiful museum….and those exhibits! Ireland is on my husbands bucket list. After your history lessons I hope to see Scotland while we are in Europe.

[@SassSafras]

Wow what a great trip to the museum! U lucky man. And Albert... Well . 😂 Anyway when you showed that little silver button the other day, I was really meaning to get on and tell you (except I was somehow unsubscribed) it's the exact correct size and shape for half a colonial era (in the USA) cuff link. They're always an oval shape rather than circular, and have somewhat of a shank on the back that is more like a glass button than a tomback or dandy style shank. This is where the u shaped link clipped in from either side of the u shape. There would be 3 or so small links between 2 identical pieces where you slip them in the button holes on your shirt cuff. Great find, silver and it broke the dry spell, so can't beat that. I apologize for not answering back on tictoc, I only have it on my Chromebook and my boyfriend's computer blew up. So he has had it and I haven't been able to get on. I did receive notification in email that you responded but I can not answer back that way, and I refuse to load It on my phones that have my banking aps. We've had a lot of issues here in the USA from the Chinese platform, and there's currently a bill to be passed that bans tictoc in the USA. So since I am a part time employee of the u.s. department of commerce I am forbidden to have it on my devices. 😅 Anyway, awesome finds.. can't wait to hear more about that fish! And what did they say, if anything, about that holy Grail.. or the dram that was found on the gallows site? Been wondering about those as well. And to be clear, did they take the items now, or do u take them back in 2 years when they're ready to go in front of the panel? 😅It is quite slow, but I imagine they get loads of artifacts being as the UK has so much history, and mudlarking and detecting are so prevalent there. So, understandable. Sad sad day when you broke your shaft too. Boy that sounds awkward, uh, well.😅 Anywho you know what I mean I hope. Thanks for another great video, and take care. I will get back with you on tictoc as soon as I'm able to get my laptop back. Happy Valentine's as well. And please remind your subscribers that KZbin seems to be unsubscribing people again. It's happened to me 8 times on different channels the past 3 years. Crazy I know. Have a good day. "Sass" Aka Glenna

[@visitscotlandtours1]

Amazing 🤩

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks John you handsome devil 😈

[@dgb56bgd]

Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend, from this old man in Tennessee. Thanks for the updates. Perhaps, when your DEUSII was acting up…maybe you were near an overhead high voltage wire system…hmmmm. Tech stuff…sometimes they are wonky and sometimes they break. Oh well. Thanks, my friend, for sharing your awesome museum with us. Blessings.

[@jomo5242]

I love your videos, John. So informative and compelling. Also, you’re a cat person. Triple points all round!

[@virginiahardy9213]

😅very interesting video! Thank you!

[@tammykaltreider]

So exciting!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Tammy

[@joedaly4277]

Way cool, John. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@NicsNox]

Great vid. Thanks👍👍👍

[@suecrane3987]

Thanks for another great history lesson, John! If I ever make it to Ireland where my maternal ancestors came from, I would definitely love to hop over to your museum. One could spend a whole day there, if not more!

[@8BitHawlucha]

15:21 Wow! Yeah that would be an amazing find.

[@8BitHawlucha]

Omgarsh....so much cool stuff. Thanks for showing.

[@bonnerdebbie]

Thanks John, I am excited for next video. Great visit to museum!

[@emilyjayne77]

I absolutely love the rock with the carved religious cross.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Me too Emily. The problem with it is, out of context…. How old might it be. Could even have been made last week, but fingers crossed it’s 1,000+ years old!!

[@racheltalbot6345]

Wow John I feel your pain with having to wait so long that would frustrate me too! I’m from New Zealand & my ancestor was Robbie Burns so when I watch you John I feel like I’m home!! Thank you for your amazing class on history!!❤

[@AThike]

I could watch museum footage all day! Thank you!

[@robertmclellan3541]

What a nice update video. The bonus museum part was a pleasure to view. The Silver coin Roman Horde, amazing 😮 thanks so much

[@anoniaciesluk3273]

Wow wonderful museum! I never saw it in the 1970’s when I was in Scotland and Edinburgh.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Well you’ll just have to come back!!!

[@glendamears3618]

Great stuff John 😊 2 yrs along time I hope you get all your finds back. All those finds are amazing 😊❤

[@brenda1378]

Thanks so much John for the museum tour, much appreciated.

[@beetlekey]

i will visit the museum for sure!

[@darbysdownhomedetecting]

Great episode!

[@glendamears3618]

Your a wonderful example John and a great Historian 😊❤

[@maureenhovey4305]

Hope all is well with you and yours.

[@thelmakessel5509]

Thank you thank you for your devotion to keeping us supplied with video! I can’t imagine how much time you must spend filming and editing. It is all terribly fascinating. You are also the king of propriety regarding historic finds and sharing them with archeologists. A grand spokesman for doing the right thing for history. I am hoping that of the 183 items, some compensation might help with the equipment costs you must have. Knowledge is very satisfying, but a few pounds in the pocket must certainly be nice too. Thanks again from Canada!🎉❤ and you are right about the museum- after 3 hours we still had only done the Celtic section and a bit beyond. Days it would take us to get through it all! Next trip, I guess.

[@nyttag7830]

In the hall of fame 👏👏👏✨✨

[@EmilyBoltz]

John thank you for explaining the process. It will be fun to hear the followup even if it is a year or two away. 👍 can't wait for the next videos!

[@Craig-g8q8k]

Excellent informative video there John. Look forward to all notifications from your channel. Keep it up and keep it low and slow

[@HughDuszaPastor]

I came back and restarted from where I stopped vid and lo and behold ... sound

[@chezaspup]

Loved this John! Cant wait to see your next finds!! You had a twinkle in your eyes each time you mentioned the next videos, so i guess you found something very special! 😘 Chez

[@paulspence2134]

Great video, John! Thanks from Chicago.

[@calvinottewell-lh4hj]

Thank you John for the amazing video well impressed 👏

[@paulevans5455]

An amazing museum, good luck with your finds, hope you get info on the main ones.

[@sam7687-i9b]

That bull is amazing I'd love to wear it on a necklace just for a day before it went to museum. Fantastic piece. Keep us informed.

[@kylep292]

claws are berrer with a thick coat... thanks for the update, i love your vids an especially your comment,, thanks

[@viridiangreen8259]

Liked learning about the museum process - thank you - hi mitsy

[@PaulAndrewsClan]

Brilliant John, I’m excited for you and Albert. Time will fly and it will be worth it. The museum is on my list now and assume although free, a donation can be given. Thanks again

[@sniddley]

Great visit to the museum, as always..job well done, thanks John

[@7cColin]

Well done John, great that you are reporting the appropriate finds, as should all who detect. Your fish reminds me of other Roman depictions of fish, with it's stylised shape and thick lips. Look forward to finding out what the experts say. It's a pity the Museum hasn't allowed you to film this time, the first time you did this was remarkably watchable, and memorable! Yes, I do understand the decision, but I think they are missing a PR trick there and increasing the distance between academia and the general public. Just my opinion. Ah well, there you are. You're doing a great job on this channel, more power to you.

[@wingsandbeaksbirder2312]

Very nicely done!😊

[@y-mefarm4249]

I sure hope the museum pays well for the items they keep. And can you then sell the items the museum don't want? Great vid as always ❤

[@Wildmansart]

Thank you for an excellent visit to the museum, the Deus update and congratulations on breaking the silver drought! Bravo! My wish is for my wife and I to take a tour some day to visit the land of my ancestors.

[@davidlewis9068]

Very nice updates for the museum handover. You did get updates just the same, and that is great. The museum is something special too.

[@katenickels617]

great video

[@maggie_oshea]

Enjoyed the video 🙂

[@cynthiaaguilar8656]

John you do such an amazing job with your videos. You are so informative and entertaining. A great combination! Thank you from the fields of Kansas! 😂

[@robertwallings3762]

thanks John a great interesting video and the museum is outstanding . hope your items do well for you. take care

[@synw3llth0rn32]

Thank you for this video. As someone from the US I was curious about the process of reporting found treasures there in Scotland. The Museum is a marvel! I'd love to go there someday.

[@tuesdaychild4483]

So fantastic that you found all those treasures and got to hold them for a little while! I’m from Canada but had the great experience of visiting Edinburgh and the museum many years ago 😊

[@carolh9734]

Fascinating mixture of information. Really interested in what you find out in the future about your items. Shame it's a long wait but shows some are following the rules and have more on their minds than making money. It's vital for our knowledge and appreciation of the past. Glad you've got the the detector sorted, although Simon may miss his labourer! Looking forward to seeing your silver haul. 😁

[@HighlandDiamond]

It is an amazing museum to visit 👍👍👍

[@juettie]

Danke für die interessanten Informationen, es wird nie langweilig, freue mich sehr auf die kommenden Sondelrunden, Danke...😀

[@fishinwidow35]

That horn is awesome!

We don't have anything as old as Scotland or England other than arrowheads. Finders keepers here.

Different is good. Loved it John. Thank you for sharing

[@Ari-jj9op]

Thank you for the museum tour John! What a dream trip that would make for me.

[@joanhamilton2651]

I enjoyed this very much. Thank you

[@keepdigginmetaldetecting]

Thanks, John

[@aprilleighallred8546]

Thanks for sharing this with us!! You're the absolute best, John!

[@bryanb1259]

Thanks John 👍👍💥💥

[@jonathanaristone2468]

I've been waiting for this update John, thank you. I hope they kept the round stone with the cross on it, which I think is Knights Templar. We have an ongoing treasure hunt going on in Nova Scotia on Oak Island, which is covered by the History channel. They have found Knights Templar evidence in their diggings. I'm a locked in fan John!

[@jayhook-zm1pw]

That shit is really cool.

[@cook13doodle16]

❤❤❤

[@tonilauge5786]

Even trusty XP deus 2 was tired of January! But gongrats with 3 years. With some luck, museum will contact You before 6 years anniversary 😜🔝❤️

[@lawrencescott7014]

I need to visit that Museum!!

[@LaurieLeeAnnie]

John, that’s fantastic! 183 items….. I know it will be a long wait but I’m so excited to hear what they have to say about them. Please also encourage people to GPS tag their finds. Thank you sir! 😊

[@Cathydavidson061]

Wow John, that was awesome! Thanks for sharing!! :)

[@ablettgone]

A grand video that John, and those treasures in the museum just incredible. Good luck with the Flo and look forward to your next detecting films 👍🏻

[@bdewar6837]

An amazing collection of finds and I'm looking forward to seeing your silver filled future videos! The museum looks fascinating! Thank you for filming some of the treasures there.
