Let’s go easy on Simon. I sense he responds & appreciates positive comments more so than jabs. Just an observation from afar. Love your channel….and Simons channel also. I watch both.

[@angiebechaz4648]

I felt a bit that way today. A bit jabbier than usual 🙄 Love you guys and the banter normally 😊

[@peterlauter3505]

You and Simon should swap machines for a day of detecting.. would be interesting. love the videos John.

[@Jean.Feigion]

I felt like I needed a lie down watching this fabulous day of detecting. Wonderful.

[@Ezio334]

14:50 found an auction denoting it as a 1920's Sheffield Weekly Telegraph "Kind Hearted Brigade" Club Medal

[@Fred-tr8zg]

Great video great finds I enjoyed the video. 🇺🇸

[@bf3075]

Simon is back! Awesome! Great to see the tag team back at it! Fantastic day! Thank you for taking us along with you!

[@lenaporter5079]

My guilty pleasure 😁

[@davidperry5631]

Grape shot from a cannon? Great video as usual. I am spending my time hunting for mushrooms today. Shot a very nice turkey a few days ago. Also been digging bottles and arrowheads.

[@lordleonusa]

Samuel Morse, a New York University professor of painting and sculpture, began working on his version of the telegraph in 1832. Morse was inspired to develop the telegraph after hearing about the discovery of the electromagnet while sailing home from Europe. He spent several years developing a prototype with the help of his partners, Leonard Gale and Alfred Vail. In 1837, Morse received a patent for his electromagnetic telegraph, which used a portarule with built-in dots and dashes. In 1838, Morse presented his invention to Congress, demonstrating how dots and dashes represented letters and numbers using Morse code.

Wow!! Outstanding day, well done gents!!

[@RobPoleij]

1811 King George III 1 Shilling & Sixpence Silver Bank Token (Eighteenpence), value 330 euro

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Rob! Hope you enjoyed. I didn’t know such a thing existed until I found it!! Amazing and thanks for watching and taking the time to comment

[@guiart4728]

And it is in good condition compared to some I have seen on line. Saw one not nearly as nice for 270 Pounds!

[@HLBear]

Your thought was right: "These intriguing coins were struck in the latter years of the Napoleonic Wars as the conflict led to financial instability in Britain and the mass hoarding of gold and silver coins. The Royal Mint could not keep up with demand for replacement currency and - as a temporary measure - began issuing tokens. First, in the form of countermarked Spanish coinage and later as these fascinating Bank Tokens which circulated as legal tender coinage."

[@HanstheTraffer]

@@HLBear I wonder if those inspired the "US Pattern Coins" that came out in the mid 1800's Those are beautiful coins and rare.

[@artpeck9272]

I thought maybe grape shot?

[@elizabethrobertson1159]

So exciting! I've, literally, been on the edge of my seat for the last hour. Well done!

[@Commandamanda]

You got me excited with that hand cannon shot! I have used a handmade one as part of a medieval restoration group! We used to call them stick cannons, as they were stuck on the end of what felt like a long broomstick. You would place the end of the long stick against the ground when firing, affording no kickback (since the ground absorbed the shock). They certainly didn't have great aim, but made an impression with a big bang and whoosh sound!

[@tcDetects]

Thanks for the video, great hunt!

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

These are the days that keep you going. One for the books! Cheers, and ATB!

[@kimberlymolitor354]

Wow!! Simon brought you luck today!! The bank token was my favorite!!🥰🥰🥰

[@gloriagibson1113]

What an exciting day! Hi from Dunedin New Zealand

[@carolmollman9809]

Thanks for superimposing the image of coins that haven’t been ravaged by time in the dirt! it really helps us visualize the finds. Giving us a bit of history as context makes it even more fun. Good editing!

[@phrayzar]

Simon is such an eternally cheerful fellow, always nice to see him.

[@hippyhay1659]

Great hunt! The George lll bank token was awesome.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Many thanks. Glad you liked. Very rare and very unusual and ANOTHER one for the museum!! 😜

[@JolieBlanchardBrown]

Great video. I really enjoyed it.

[@znarkz]

Your Chanel is amazing mate! I’m from Sweden and i just received my X Terra Pro a couple of days ago and yesterday I found my first silver coin 😊. It’s really nice and addictive hobby. A few years ago I went to Scotland and traveled around the country with car for a week and if I compare that trip with all other vacations I’ve done Scotland is at the top when it comes to hospitality and helpfulness. The people were really nice and kind. I literally thought that if people were like the Scott’s it would be world peace! Thanks for awesome uploads!

[@bobbybaker1060]

[@maladyhawke]

Wonderful day!! I felt your excitement, made me chuckle and happy for you. could the little foot thingy be a foot/leg to a pot?

You guys are so good together ,great stuff ,thanks!

[@paulinesalinas9443]

Thanks

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thank you Pauline! Very kind of you

[@steveshepherd2712]

You had a fabulous day ! Love the George 3 token , here in Canada there was a severe shortage of small change in the 1820 's so bank tokens and merchant tokens were issued to fill the gap ( counterfeit tokens a.k.a. blacksmith tokens also produced ) . I have been fortunate to have found these but am still waiting for a silver one 😉 Well done John 👍

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Man you thanks and best wishes. Clearly a global money shortage! Many thanks

[@Christine_J]

What a phenomenal day!!

[@davidross5169]

I found one that looked like that.round ball,mine was platinum, A melted lightning rod.I think,found where a old house stood.

[@lauriethompson8085]

You had a Great day chocked full of finds. Congratulations! I am off detecting and hope to have some luck today.😊

[@nancymatteson5234]

They apparently fling coins randomly about in Scotland, all through the ages

[@margaretbarclay-laughton2086]

Aye and they say the Scots are mean😂

[@franciscoR.]

Very glad you found a coin you were unfamiliar with, that’s what finds are really about. Congrats 🎉!!

[@Ari-jj9op]

Whew, what a day! Congrats!

[@1124mdburke]

Fabulous day for you today ! and so much fun to watch! I hope you have many more days like that to come! Congratulations from California!

[@Cathydavidson061]

OK, Cathy here again..see, as excited as you...I saw others for less but still something else!! :D

[@paulinesalinas9443]

What a day you certainly did have 🤩🤩🤩 amazing variety of finds and did people feed the birds with their coins in that field?! That bank token is a really beautiful and lucky find - worth a nice little amount but I guess as most detectorists do, you’ll keep it, I know I would 😍. Simon needs to get himself a Deus 2! Well done John and well done good old Deus 👏 Great to see you with Simon again. Enjoyed the light box and to see how the silver stands out.

[@ouzalghost8411]

An amazing days dig John I cant believe the amount of coins you found along with the excellent 1/ 6d token and medallions. Very well done paI really enjoyed it, I'll now go and watch Simon's video of his side of the days event's 👍👍

[@muzzychuck]

I have a couple of silver George III five pence bank tokens, both marked as Irish. I assumed the tokens were only issued in Ireland until I saw your video, so there's been a lot of learning for me in the last hour, very much helped by some of the comments here 👍

[@gailhowes9398]

Thank you so much for sharing from western Canada! I have enjoyed your speech as my ancestors came from Burgage, Buxton, Derbyshire and someday I would love to visit there someday❣️

I think those Victorian picture hangers hooked onto the Picture Rail

[@jansim7510]

I see you shaved, John! Lookin' good lad, and it's always good to have Simon with you!

[@chuckblankenship4811]

Happy to see that over the last several videos you have remembered to turn up the large numbers readout on the Deus.
