Some great finds there, Alexander. Particularly keen on the gun money, I've never found one (YET!). The seal box lid is fabulous, and it was worth the wait to find out more about it 👍 Hugs to Sir Tascalot 🐕

That Magnentius(?) coin is so sharp! But the guy looks like a gnome! The box lid is something I have never seen, and no wonder since they were only used a short while. That is a cute little porky pony. The Hill Country here in Texas is just littered with wildflowers. I drove west of me to a very large ranch, watched my oldest compete in Tactical Games, then back home. The drive was magnificent with all the colors. Bluebonnet season is over, but all the other wildflowers are painting every spare inch of ground in yellow, orange, white, and purple. Have a great spring!

Hello and G'day Alexander, mate. Great day out detecting as always fantastic finds. Yeap, even here in Australia, I've dug perfectly preserved old English pennys in sandy soils that have never been fertilised because they are not usually used for farming. Stop buying those coins off eBay 😂🤣😂🤣 what a laugh. Great documentary as always Alexander. ✌️👍🦘🇦🇺🦘

Hi Alexander. Yet another fantastic day. That Magnentius is stunning, despite the damaged edge. It is a "GLORIA ROMANORVM", mint mark TRS dot, so from Trier, RIC VIII 270. I have one of these from Aquileia, that I paid about £30 for and it is only half as good as your find. The James II gun money is an absolute standout as well. Coincidentally, I also have one of these. Yours has "Jan", mine has "Aug". Yours cost you some time and a little effort on a pleasant afternoon, mine, from memory cost me around £60. How much better can your forays get than they have already been this year so far? Let us hope that the good fortune continues. Enjoy the end of a rainy winter, here a rainy autumn is just firing up. Take care.
Thanks for the video.

Hi Alexander just watched your latest video, brilliant as usual. I have the same D2 ws6 and was wondering what settings you use on pasture?😁
@HolzHammerSagas
3 ай бұрын
I will do a settings thing Vanessa, but I don't know how helpful they will be. I don't think they are very usual as I keep the "power" really turned down and listen out for signals rather than ramp everything up and have everything rather obvious. I don't think they're everyone's typical settings, so I'm a bit wary of sharing them.

I’m wondering if you would be willing to look at them and give me your opinion. Do you have a email I could send you the pictures to. If you would rather not that’s okay to.
