So cool with those tokens! Specially the crisp 1791! A real mystery why there is no silvers on a field covered with copper coins from the same time period. lol at the cows at the end, thats us watching alright 😆

Great video. I love all those big copers. I am going to email you something I found. Thanks for sharing. Gold Field is a ear breaker.

Hi mate, thanks for visiting my channel and for watching this video. I did indeed receive your email, thank you. I sent you a reply too and also had a quick visit to your channel this morning before work. Your George II coin find was pretty awesome!

Look at all those finds.. I wonder what was happening in Georgian times around there... I love the tokens.. I don't think I've ever found one. Shame no silver has come up.

Hi John, thanks mate, I spend quite a bit of time finding the music that fits my channel and the music that I like, so always happy when people comment on it.

Great lot of finds there Gareth. Do love that 1/2d token. An amazing amount of stuff. Though it is an older video, it is funny how both our videos this week have a Hibernia 1/2 penny in them. Yours in far better condition. Great day out on the coil. Well done. Take care mate 🦘🦘😁👍

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Andrew, thanks very much for the channel visit and for watching this video. I have to say this is one of the busiest fields I've ever detected. Nigh impossible to find silver coins though for some reason. 18 months later and I'm still pulling up stuff from this field. I remember you mentioned your Hibernia coin in one of your recent videos. Hope you are well and catch ya soon. G

[@thegallowsdetectors666]

Hi mate , results were quite good in the gold field programme loads of coins and a cracking token although never tried it myself might have to give it a go , mind you as you said no silver on that occasion and if the wonderful silver find i have just had at the Manor is anything to go by i will stick to the sensitive FT Programme , good video pal very enjoyable best wishes Rob .

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

To be honest, it doesn't really matter what program you use, they will all hit most targets. I've been using Sensi FT religiously for 18 months now, it is by far my favourite program on the landscapes that I metal detect. Its all about the tones and the sounds for me

[@thesouthernsearcher]

Another great video mate I loved that token it was in cracking condition. Loads of targets and coins so got to be some silver there somewhere.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

That token was awesome, and by far the best condition token I've ever found. This field is amazing, but 18 months down the line it is becoming baron of signals. I am still convinced there will be a work Guinea there somewhere so I'll keep looking

[@jamesaitchison3750]

happy new year Gareth, at this time of year watching a video from warmer days makes us feel good, the finds of coins and artifacts were fantastic thanks again cheers

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, a belated Happy New Year to you, apologies for the slow reply, takes me an ice age to reply to all the wonderful comments I receive. I have some other days filmed from back in 2022 still to edit. I rely on this kinda stuff when I have nothing else to edit / upload. Just bagged a big new permission and buzzing to check it out on Saturday

[@simonjohnson1585]

Hello Gareth 👍🏻All the best for the new year buddy 🎉 great video and lots Georgian bits, stop going on about wishing it was silver or gold mate lol , it’s all still history found in a great hobby . All the best from Somerset ❤

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Simon, as always thanks so much for watching this one from the old archives. Ha yeah I get your point, but as someone who regularly finds silver on almost all my permissions, this field does not produce any at all, despite the fact its absolutely loaded with Georgian and Victorian history. In 18 months detecting it and over a dozen visits, I have only racked up 2 silver coins here, which is bizarre

[@BMW7series251]

Wow Gareth, amazing finds! That token was fantastic! HNY M8, all the best, John.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi John, thanks as always for coming along and checking out this episode. That token certainly was amazing, very rarely do Georgian era tokens come up in that condition. Thanks again and hope to see you on my next episode. G

Yesss I did a day with the Gold Field program. It is very much like Relic Mode. Its great, its deep, it works, but the noise and tones are not really to my liking. Sensi FT hits everything GF and Relic do. I will have another go though very soon! 0.71 all the way. Thanks as always for watching. G

Lovely video G, great finds. I do feel you are missing a trick when it comes to finding silver n gold with the D2. Don't get me wrong , you are so experienced but I think you are fixated on SensiFT. I would love if you stopped using it and switched to another for 2024 to see if your silver finds increased. Change can be a good thing G!!!

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, I had by far my best ever year for gold in 2023 🤣 Silver count was 35, my lowest ever due to permissions drying up and nowhere near as many hours in the field. Sensi FT will find anythin Gold Field or Deep HC will find. Which program do you suggest? Thanks as always for watchin. G

[@funiguy8779]

The scourge of our hobby, finding new permissions, I hope you find some more soon bud. I do like the gold field , it seems to bang louder on those deep targets, but we all have our fav.prog. I suppose. Don't mind me, I'm just wishing for more silver and gold finds for you!!
