Roman silver JACKPOT! Metal detecting ANCIENT TREASURE with The Hoover Boys

[@48thstateprospecting]

John I must say your quite the extraordinary human sharing this field with the Hoover boys and letting them find all the stuff you’d have found yourself eventually they would never find Roman artifacts and coins here and thank you for taking time to film all their finds and missing out on detecting time yourself I’m surprised you found anything at all with so much filming😳 and I also appreciate you adding the foo whip noises in the Hoover boys style what a great series this has been very enjoyable to watch so thank you thank you thank you for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼

[@mollyfritz-beckers6821]

You have hosted the Hoovers to find antiquities beyond our American ability to grasp. Their glory days with you in Scotland will become adventure stories to amaze grandchildren by the fire side for years to come.😊

[@EmilyBoltz]

Absolutely- think of the stories they will share. You can see how much they appreciated the chance to go out there.

[@GaliSinatra]

My goodness John, you're spoiling those boys! They won't want to go home!

[@dyaneolafsmama5862]

Did you send them home after this day??? Hope they left you some amazing finds!!! I should have warned you to have a camera person to chase all the finds! THB please tell me you set up John with a foo bottle and a hooded sweatshirt!!! What an epic day for all of you!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Had them for another six days after this! And the finds kept on coming! And yes I got a lovely wee foo bottle and a hoodie! It was so busy it wasn’t real. Glad they got so much incredible history!

[@dyaneolafsmama5862]

@@thescottishdetectorist how long did you need to rest after they came home??? A week? Longer? 😁

[@jahmellesherman8224]

The detail on the Hadrian coin, just wow!

[@clairewerthman2467]

Thanks for taking good care of my fellow Americans!!!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

My pleasure

[@roseblitz1439]

This has been great watching my two favorite metal detecting channels at one go. You all looked like you had a great and successful few days. Fantastic!💖

[@adrientucker5949]

It's really funny that you incorporated the whip sound with the showing of the foo. Amazing amazing amazing finds in this episode!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

I tried. Didn’t quite sound the same as theirs! But I tried 🤪

[@johndillon8051]

No good deed goes unpunished. Incredible day!

[@ouzalghost8411]

The quality of the finds this field is producing is incredible, it was a pleasure to watch these items being dug up. Congratulations hoovers and Thank you John.

[@patty4091]

John you are a host extraordinaire! You have definitely made the Hoover Boys happy! Beautiful finds! The boys are keeping you busy John, between your finds!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks Patty. It’s hard to get detecting time with the rate they were pulling up finds!! Incredible

[@paulsdogwalking]

incredible level of detail on the romans

[@sniddley]

Wow, what an incredibly prosperous day. John, you are a true gentleman to share this history with The Hoover Boys. Well done to all.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Glad you enjoyed it and it was fantastic seeing them unearthing such incredible finds!

[@paulhunt1072]

Welcome back to the empty fields of Perthshire. 😂 Those hoover boys live up to their name John. 😂

[@junco477]

What a great host you are. They are so lucky to have an expert on hand to tell them what they've found. Great job.

[@paulahiggins4301]

You are spoiling your fan base with all these videos!! 😉 Thank you again!!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Glad you like them Paula. A flurry of videos then probably back to normality with a couple a week! Have a great weekend

[@chalmer31]

WOW! What a day. I'm exhausted just watching. 😊

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Yes it was! What a day! Some incredible finds and the guys were over the moon!

[@terryt.1643]

I’m thinking you may be swamped with dig requests from all over the world, John. You sure pick the right fields to metal detect! Wowser. Great day. 👍👍

[@EmilyBoltz]

How thrilling for the guys to get a chance to hit those fields with the Scottish detectorist and it was so fun to watch! You are the best John!

[@ivdeadelendaest]

9:53 Trajan is 100% correct on that one and Roma is also correct, she is holding a little Victory in her outstretched hand and a spear in the other, no cornucopia just an attic helmet, minted in Rome between 108-109, incredible find from what most would consider the absolute peak of the empire. 14:30 Yep that's Commodus again, The goddess on the back is Fortuna the goddess of luck and it was minted in Rome in the late 180s. 20:38 Beautiful Hadrian, the "T" is because at this point in the empire, it was common for an emperor to adopt his heir, but when Trajan died it was uncertain if he had ever actually adopted Hadrian, so to give himself more legitimacy he added Trajan to his imperial titles so it would seem like he did adopt him. On the reverse that is the god Genius placing a sacrifice onto an altar, minted in Rome between 119-121, that one is not a very common variety either, as a Hadrain collector I'm very jealous. I have got to get over to Europe at some point to do some Roman detecting, buying uncleaned coins is fun but I cant imagine actually pulling Romans out of the ground myself. Looking forward to the next vid!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Amazing information! Thanks so much for this, I’ve passed it on to the guys. They’ll be delighted. Thanks ☺️

[@helenallen4956]

Wow! What a day for you guys! Well worth the trip for the Hoover Boys❤

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Yes it was! An excellent time had by all…. And I added to my button collection 🤣

[@guiart4728]

Facial details on the Hadrian are stunning!

[@alanlucas2886]

what a day john they did well

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Alan. Amazing 🤩

[@petesquarterlifecrisis887]

Wow, what a day that would be to find 2 silver Romans and fibulas, crazy awesome!

[@thescottishdetectorist]

You got that right! An epic day!

[@dianechidlow8485]

Take care of our big boy and have a great time in Scotland.

[@jmitch5161]

What a day! So happy for the guys with their phenomenal finds. We are fortunate in UK to have such a depth of history.

[@JimmyTheJockDetects]

Unbelievable field. Awesome finds. Silver denarii all over the place. Well done to the finders.

[@relicrat]

WOW!!! Thanks for sharing a great day in the field.

[@ChristianThomas-wf5dl]

John, which finds will they have to leave behind to be documented at the museum? You're such a gracious host to the Hoover boy's. Is Iron Bru an energy drink? Be well John!

[@glendamears3618]

Hi John, so nice of you to share your Roman field😊

[@calliecooke1817]

I don't want to be crying sour grapes. But I'm already green-eyed with envy from the Hoover's permissions here in MD. To see them with you is almost unbearable. Still, I'll try to be a good sport and congratulate John. A Roman fibula is a dream find. And the silver flourin is beautiful. Good on him and good on you for being the best host. I expect they will return the favor and you will visit MD soon. I would love to meet you for a pint if you do. Cheers all around !!!

[@stockystocks1502]

What an amazing thing you have done for the Hoover boys ........ Absolutely fantastic for them. Thanks for sharing with us John.

[@danakeefer9063]

You guy's are on a heck of a run.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

I saved some fantastic fields for these guys coming and they didn’t disappoint that’s for sure!!

[@suzilouden5964]

Blimey John, what truly epic finds. The American lads will be applying for Scottish residency soon....👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽

[@thescottishdetectorist]

You’re telling me. They got great finds every day and plenty more videos coming! They said they’d be out detecting every day if they lived here

[@suzilouden5964]

Don't blame them....but to be fair John, you'd detect every day if you could....😁

[@geraldboblitt7362]

Happy to see the Hoover boys living the dream just wait till the chef gets there next time

[@markvpinkham]

Wow! It’s like being at a museum! Well done, buttons and all.

[@tanna4534]

Pretty excited when I found a pocket spill of 3 quarters in a parking lot in Kansas today! (Can’t imagine finding a Roman!)

[@dbaca148]

Amazing...can't wait till you find the elusive gold Roman coin hoard! And loved the foo foo whip sounds 😃

[@AReelHouseProduction]

John, what a host you are. Great finds for all.

Real Jackpot is the help of Hoover boys To raise the amount of subscribers for Johns channel. Wise decision to get A Bigger Channel to help out. Done to death original Roman field Through nearly 25 years surpriced Me 2 times ploughing really helped. An John still haven't bothered to Deep search the field to find the Remains of the mother load. Gongraths to Hoover boys though. 😜🔝❤️

[@pollysprops]

Send ‘em back! Next they’ll move to Scotland😂😂😂

[@LoriZabielski]

John you better step up your game. Those Hoover boys are cleaning up. ❤

All finds will be reported to the Treasure Trove department at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh and I’m sure some will be claimed and go on display
