NAIL JOKE: how competitive was the metal detecting convention? I dunno, they fought tooth and nail over some of the stuff

[@MaxFosh]

Strong. Very very strong.

[@MaxFosh]

Winner winner! message me on Insta for your beautiful Roman nail..

[@matthiaspeene5631]

You nailed it.

[@kaicreed7985]

LMAO

[@ConnorDoesRugby]

How’s the nail?

[@lauraswanson4806]

though I had some problem with sea water It also kzbin.infoUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

@@Summer-xu8qu so walking around with a pole while it beeps at random moments? Sounds fun

[@tonyth9240]

@@intheplums to be fair, a lot of people tend to just walk around without a pole, you know, jogging, walking, hiking and stuff. So yeah, this seems a bit more interesting.

I can 100% guarantee that roman coin I found you is now lost again 😂 Hope you had fun with us budd! 😁

As an American, finding a roman coin sounds like it should be a much bigger deal than it seemed to be

[@Junbav]

if you find one in america it would be a massive deal

[@booombasa]

Eh, Romans minted coins in the billions. They are cool AF, but not too uncommon.

[@Jinxx9081]

Finding a Roman coin in Europe is the equivalent of finding a pre revolution Spanish coin in America (pretty common)

Pleasure to meet you Max and cheers for putting us in your video. Great work and we will see you at Summer Detectival now that you're clearly hooked 😂 😂. Chris and Bernie AKA The Discriminator Metal Detecting! ♥.

[@GarrettBlackmon]

I'm in awe about how seemingly common a roman coin is, you're talking about something 2000 years old and they are so common and uninteresting the call them "wee's" because they throw them back?!

[@clray123]

You throw them away out of respect for future aspiring metal detectors.

[@ZephrymWOW]

@@clray123 I'd say they should keep the first one they find as a momento

[@mariothingy]

fr idk if I've ever even seen anything that old outside a museum

[@jayleighbear]

@@mariothingyi think it’s maybe got to do with the area. in america obviously finding old coins like that is insane but in europe that kind of thing would be much easier to find given the large scale population. it’s still a very cool find just not worth anything over there unless it’s in superb condition or somehow very rare

[@samvidrajwar6424]

I feel like this is a great metaphor for life. You start with going on an adventure, out in the world to look for treasures with purpose. Some do find things worth a pretty penny, but most of us just end up with a pile of shit. But what matters is the joy we got from finding these worthless trinkets, with our mates.

[@Widdekuu91]

Talking about worthless trinkets, I am really (and when I say really, I mean réálly) looking forward to the day that I will visit Britain once more and be able to pull some Christmas-crackers with someone. I've heard they have all sorts of silly stuff in them.

Great video, as always! Metal detecting is a lot of fun and this looks very well organised with a nice bunch of guys but it's not all treasure, this is also archaeology. Sadly, as an archaeologist I've seen sites destroyed by reckless detectors. Would be great if you included something about how archaeologists and metal detecting work together.

[@rosiefay7283]

Doesn't look very well organised if the two men supposed to be helping Max didn't guide him to the proper dig area, and let him dig where he wasn't supposed to dig.
