Sunny detecting day turns up a great coin.

What a great day - we even had sun instead of rain, who'd have thought it?! My favourite coin of the day dated at 1699.

Hi Jon & Wendy , well plenty of finds and the 1699 coin was a lovely find i also like the lead weight with the alloy loop it may have been used for dry casting practice by a fisherman , if it was a really old lead weight the loop would have been cast into the weight as one solid piece and not added into the molten lead ie an alloy loop , great video once more and love the banter , best wishes and ATB Rob .

Hi , we love that coin! The lead weight was strange, we actually found another one the following week and we did think of a fishing weight, there isn't any water nearby, but maybe, whoever dropped it, was prepared to walk a long way, who knows? I wonder how old it is? Thank you for watching and commenting, we appreciate it. Cheers from Jon and Wendy 🙂

Again some cracking finds, the 1699 coin was good for it's age, if you'd of kept going you would of had a set of 6 spoons, good video guy's we enjoyed it 👍

[@disabledadventures4115]

Thank you. Lol, yes, don't think we've ever found so much cutlery in one session 😂. And we are quite pleased with 1699 coin 👍. All the best Jon and Wendy 😊

today finally i hit my first silver and it was a 1931 sixpence. thanks for inspiration in the reply to my comment below. the shiny stuff really did appear!

[@disabledadventures4115]

Woo hoo! Brilliant. Really pleased for you. 🙂And where you found one, there could be more! 😉

[@Cueman222]

Why would anyone make a forgery of a coin? Your finds are very nice. And you know, there is no arguing with the man who knows everything. Just kidding John. 🤣🤣

[@disabledadventures4115]

Hi 👋. Strangely, coins were forged a lot, they would make them out of melted down copper alloy coins, which were cast into moulds of the silver coinage and then dipped in a very thin layer of silver. This was called silvering. Thank you for commenting and glad you enjoyed the video. All the best from Jon and Wendy 😊

very cool hunt guys

[@disabledadventures4115]

Thank you and glad you enjoyed the video. All the best Wendy and Jon

some interesting finds off that field and real detecting,, the item at 12-55 i think is part of a Georgian rim lock handle HH and good luck on the next have subbed you

[@disabledadventures4115]

Hi, thank you for the info about the Georgian rim lock handle, and thank you for the sub. All the best Wendy and Jon.

I have a site and i am still hoping for silver but i haven't had any after 21 pre decimal coins but luckily the ground is good so they're all in excellent condition and have made good videos for me and a nice place to relax in the sun. there is nothing better than metal detecting on a sunny day. :)

[@disabledadventures4115]

That's a result 21 pre decimal coins. Jon would say, "There's got to be some of the shiny stuff!" lol. Keep going, bet there will be some! At the very least, like you say, nice and relaxing out in the sun 🙂
