Why I BANNED my best pal from metal detecting with me!

I love it when you find crotals, or any bell for that matter. I am involved in the bellfounding industry - it’s a fascinating world! The captive ball inside a crotal is known as a ‘rumbler’, and is cast into the bell, not added later. Clever folk these founders! Great finds, and such a wonderful distraction from all that’s happening elsewhere in the world. Brilliant -thanks Simon!

[@LaurieLeeAnnie]

I don’t know how you manage to work …. I would honestly be so addicted to all of this! Epic field! Congratulations to both of you for such lovely finds!

[@laniejewell7512]

I love starting my Sunday morning with Mud Ventures! thanks for your fun and interesting videos.

The exact same thing happened to Chris when he invited you to his field! That's just the Treasure Distribution System functioning as intended!🤣🤣🤣😝😝

[@Sifinds]

@@micah06v8 haha. Where’s my gold coin then? 😂

[@lovelyskull3483]

Thanks Simon and Cuffs for this lovely video. Cufffs has been very lucky. Yikes flattening that coin, where’s my super glue. Cheers.

[@MyEyeofHorus33]

Bloooooomin eck!! .. Cuffs HAS to be the luckiest detectorist I've ever seen! Buy a lotto ticket man! 😂

[@mollytorra9949]

A combination of expertise and absolutely incredible luck was at play there! Congrats to Cuffs and thanks for the exciting video Simon!

Is there a petition to "SAVE CUFFS"? If so, where do I sign?

[@kayesdigginit1519]

I think that watch winding key is one of the prettiest ones of seen someone pull from the dirt. Cool find Si!! Congrats on finding the Edward 3rd hammered!! Congrats also to Cuffs for unearthing those amazing coins. 130-150 😮 simply amazing 🎉

[@pppantz]

That Roman coin is my favorite find of all on the mudlarking channels I see, my favorite being your bust of Victoria.

[@MyEyeofHorus33]

I've finally cured my herniated discs in my back and can now walk again!.. so I've always wanted to go metal detecting.. I love walking, love history and love the mud! Seriously looking forward to giving it a go.. when funds improve of course... but yeah, pretty excited!

[@Sifinds]

@@MyEyeofHorus33 Good for you Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡

Wonderful finds today. I love the watch key Winder, so beautiful. Hope you have a wonderful week. Love from Portland, Oregon USA 🇺🇸 ❤️.

[@annamarie9858]

Sundays with SI! ☕️. As always, a fun adventure with a dash of history and a bit of art.

[@rosieintheposies3164]

That's an insane amount of history you found in that one patch of land! A coin from 2000+ years ago laying with WWII and more "modern" ones...To think of those people who were in that same spot who dropped them and also you finding them so much later is mind-blowing! 🤯🤯🤯

[@wamr-o7r]

you have so much fun together, congratulations on the beautiful finds

[@MKKzierhut]

Another lovely video ✨ Thanks so much for sharing ✨✨✨

Hello Si love your videos 👋👋👋

[@bonnerdebbie]

Thanks Si, I enjoyed that video very much. You just need some of Cuffs luck.

[@MyEyeofHorus33]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1860">31:00</a> I thought you might have used that Japanese technique of filling cracks with gold (or a gold coloured metal) in order to fix items but retain their character. It would really suit something like that coin! Well done to the winner of the bracelet! Lucky boogers!

[@Sifinds]

@@MyEyeofHorus33 Nice idea!

[@MyEyeofHorus33]

@@Sifinds thank you sir! 👍🏼

[@EvilUnderTone]

Brilliant episode and luck well done. Speaking as someone who's worked with metals a lot of his life you done well to get that coin open as far as you did. As a watch & clockmaker I'd say you can use solder rather than silver solder for delicate repairs. The silver solder just makes it stronger. Plumbers solder is what I've always used. It has a much lower melting point than silver solder.

[@conitorres9774]

The field that loves to give. Good flying, Si. That dig and pit sculpture made me laugh, it's great. The crotal bells sounds so nice, but I don't think Nelly enjoyed it. Oh my 😢, how terribly frustrating.

[@BeaEss]

Nelly is definitely Sydney's (one of my rescues) brother from another mother. Spitting image. Such a shame about the groat, fantastic find though. I'd be more than happy with a broken one!

[@JulesChappers]

Oh my word such fantastic finds guys, really enjoyed this video 👩🏼‍🦼‍➡️🐾

I’m surprised Cuffs didn’t win Simon’s giveaway competition as well! Hahaha!!

Come on Simon give the man a break. He has the golden touch... Love ya though Si-Find...

Hello from Kentucky

[@DeloresLowndes]

I kept saying 'leave it alone' but no....

[@justjoy4239]

Ahh! Cuffs did it again! 🤣🤣

[@mjrippe]

Should have listened to Cuffs and left that coin alone! 😂

[@charlesperez9976]

Here’s the thing about Cuffs: Your friend has clearly sold his soul to the devil,in exchange for fining what he finds. Pray for his lost soul. 🤣 Also,flying that airplane,the gypsy moth,was it? That was impressive. My brother got his pilot’s license when he was 17 years old. Mom was horrified at this,as my father’s oldest brother,Hector,died flying his airplane! My brother was less than a year old when that happened,and mom forbade dad from joining Hector on that flight. If my dad did join him,I would not have been born!!

[@charlesperez9976]

AAAH bloody Gordon Bennett,you snapped the coin! (Like my G.B. reference 🤣) Well you win some,you lose some. I respect very much your efforts at the unfolding. I would have been sweating bullets attempting such a thing.

[@charlesperez9976]

Oh! You ended up saving the coin,nice! I shouldn’t have doubted your skills.

[@franceshendry5656]

You got to ask, what the heck was going on in that field over the years??

[@susanlamb7431]

Can just imagine you both finding the hoard of a life time!

[@shen.media.makeup]

I've been trying to get a permit for Thames for ages I'm on list but I don't think I'll ever get one .desperate to mud lark ..but being in Essex near Romford it's all blooming Thames lol..hope Nelly is ok noticed his arm..I've got a nelly but he's a billy.

I wondered what went on in that field to have so many coins and such.

Cuffs jinx?

[@mattbowtell1250]

I've no idea what you think you did to that coin but whole it was red would of been the time to manipulate it placing it in water after only hardened the metal and made it more britel This happens when the atoms aligned under stress Still thats nothing compared to you inventing the wheel out of a squeeze bottle and a toothbrush Thanks but no thanks. N thats what happens when you repeatedly TEMPER HARDEN metal in water
