    Hi Guys...I watched Albert's moment of discovery and knew it would rock the archaeological world! ... By coincidence I was in a PAS training session on La Tene period zoomorphic art last week. The speaker began by giving examples of 'bulls' in early Iron Age art culture; So I tried to post a comment about your find, but someone else beat me to it... When a photo of the bull was shared, everyone (pretty much all of England's FLO's and senior archaeologists) appeared awestruck...An expletif was issued... and then the speaker declared Albert's find potentially the best example of a La Tene period bull ever discovered in the UK! Well done Albert and what a good friend you are John. It was epic to share the moment a find of potential International importance was made...and for me, to experience the reaction of our leading archaeologists when they first saw it!

    As an American, I get so jealous at the amazing finds that I see detectorists in Europe dig up. When we find things from the 17th, 18th, or 19th centuries we are amazed. It reminds me of a saying I heard that goes, Do you know the biggest differences between Europeans and Americans? Europeans think 320 Kilometers is a long distance, and Americans think 200 years is a long time. Such a beautiful piece of Scottish history going where it belongs to be enjoyed for many years.

It is pre-Roman ie before 43AD then it’s going to be one of only a handful of Celtic ‘Scottish’ Iron Age finds from Scotland of such high quality and preservation. It’s an internationally significant find. We were out on the field yesterday with the hoard detector and got two deep signals within ten metres of the find spot!!!

    Wonderful follow-up! I appreciate how you manage to shoot videos that are full of great content whist at the same time keeping things relatively private and anonymous. The full experience of speaking to the experts at the museum was cleverly captured by keeping the camera focused entirely on the finds and the process of investigation with the experts. Gives a real world taste of the process, thank you! The find is indeed amazing in its quality of construction and preservation. Good to know that it will eventually be available to the public to enjoy if it is confirmed as treasure, which I’m sure it will be given its beauty. Thank you for bringing us all along on this journey! ❤

    We were just there again, in April, at the museum. When I was looking at those hoards, I remember thinking to myself, "I wonder if John will get something in here someday?!" It's a real kick in the pants to my dream that the fledgling, Albert, beat you to it! 😄Congratulations to Albert and to you for getting to experience this find. It speaks so highly of your characters that you submitted it. I'm sure many would be tempted to keep that for themselves. If ever the owners of the medieval fort property wondered whether they had an upstanding detectorist, this is all the proof they'll ever need. As always, thanks for sharing, and I'll be waiting for the next lie down.

It is pre-Roman ie before 43AD then it’s going to be one of only a handful of Celtic ‘Scottish’ Iron Age finds from Scotland of such high quality and preservation. It’s an internationally significant find. We were out on the field yesterday with the hoard detector and got two deep signals within ten metres of the find spot!!!

    How much fun was THIS to hear what the experts had to say!! And thanks for showing the displays of silver and gold items from ancient times in Scotland. When we went to the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, we got extra tickets to see the diamond room and gold room. The gold room had incredible displays of gold coins and jewelry from ancient times in Russia, from all over, east to western Russia. These sorts of displays are always interesting. Having taken a basic college course on silverworking, to see that one large bowl with the deep flutes all around it, gives you an idea of the skills and knowledge these early civilization artisans had, and how precious their skills would have been. Well done, Albert! the head of that Roman trumpet and the artifact Albert found look VERY similar.

    How amazing! Congratulations to Albert. Thank you for the informative videos. It has been a thrill to follow along from Wisconsin, US.

    Wow. So beautiful thank you for taking us to the museum with you so we could eaves drop on the fascinating discussion of your finds. It must be hard to go home when it's dark. Maybe the next hole... and thank you for being a responsible detectorist.

    Many thanks Molly, glad you enjoyed What a find, the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen found in 23 years of detecting. It is pre-Roman ie before 43AD then it’s going to be one of only a handful of Celtic ‘Scottish’ Iron Age finds from Scotland of such high quality and preservation. It’s an internationally significant find. We were out on the field yesterday with the hoard detector and got two deep signals within ten metres of the find spot!!! Problem is the ground if frozen solid like concrete 😢…. Roll on the milder weather!!! Can’t wait 😛
