Man v Field Metal Detecting UK
Man v Field Metal Detecting UK
Welcome to the Metal Detecting UK no frills no, no faff and no waffling channel + No Adverts!
I’m Darren aka Man v Field and I love trawling the fields looking for lost items. Follow me as I travel across the UK in search of lost history.
You’ll find me out with the trusty XP Deus metal detector in all sorts of weather conditions and field types.
Whilst I’m primarily a solo detectorist I often go out with my Dad and on Club Digs.
If I’m able I will fully ID the objects I unearth and provide details in the roundup so stay tuned ‘till the end of the vids.
If you love history and enjoy my videos please consider hitting the SUBSCRIBE button and click the BELL to receive the latest updates.
Thanks for popping in! GL & HH out there Folks :)

Let’s go let’s go treasure and adventure 🇺🇸🎉👵✌️🌎🌺💕
Hi Darren, gorgeous finds - England really has to be detectorist´s paradise - not only the finds concerned but also the social acceptance and the cooperation with Museums and PAS in particular. Conditions that can only be dreamt of in other countries. Best regards
We are quite fortunate here in the UK, so long as Detectorists and Archaeologists work with each other, we'll all benefit. Thanks for watching btw.
excellent shillin' finds there ! Great to see the family all out! 2 nice hammered as well.
Thanks 👍
Gotta be some good with them there somewhere
We keep trying! :)

NZMB ? New Zealand something something?
Great banter there mate! Really like the vid! Nice George III and great silver. The groat was excellent of course. All the best!
Glad you enjoyed it. Yeh was a bit of a mad day. Didn't expect much but that coins was a corker. Thanks for stopping by again.
Lovely hammy mate
Thank you! Cheers!
This is fascinating! My partner is a metal detecting newbie and we have been given permission to detect in a an unploughed farm field within an area where there was an ancient castle settllement. Any tips for the best area of a field more likely to yield finds?
Welcome to the hobby. TBH just wander everywhere but maybe do small areas at a time. Go slow and dig the whisper signals as they are the deeper ones. Naturally it depends on what detector you have! Be sensible and follow the Metal Detecting Code of Conduct and you'll have a permission for life and maybe obtain more permissions through word of mouth. Keep us posted as to what you find. You can reach me on Facebook or join the Man v Field metal detecting group on Facebook to share your finds and ask for more tips and IDs etc. Good luck!
@@manvfieldmetaldetectinguk6767 Thank you!
Not a bad days detecting
Thanks for popping by.
Hi Darren, the Siliqua Fragment is of Valentinianus I (or II) with VRBS-ROMA reverse legend. I would guess RIC IX Treveri 27A or RIC IX Treveri 27D or RIC IX Rome 11A all with variants. There ar a few other possibilities though. Shame the mintmark is gone. Still a nice find. Regards
Thank you, appreciated
Think the big round lead disk could be a palm guard 👍
I’ve come across palm guards before and tbh agree. This one odd though. Seems a bit overkill lol
Nice ‘cartwheel’ silver!
I love it! Genuinely thought it was a milled. Always welcome a nice surprise!
Wow good coins Congratulations 🎉 😊
Thank you so much 😀
Hi Darren, nice AE1 of Diocletian (most likely RIC VI Londininium 6a) and the Large Chi-Rho (of Constantine?). Miss the thorougly assembled Round-Ups and the excellent pictures of the finds in your earlier videos. And the sound of your deus and the live-digs. And really don´t like the music - unnessecary and distracting. Nonetheless yours is one of my favorite MD-Channels. Best Regards from Austria
Thanks again 💪
Amazing field some good finds there nice video 👍 shaune in Kent
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching
Some lovely finds, great dig.....Best nugget.
Thanks for popping by
Lovely mixture of finds especially the hammered ❤
Glad you enjoyed it, Thanks for popping by
Where would the Oyster shell have come from?
They were farmed in local streams and large ponds. Romans often farmed them in dedicated purpose dug ponds. That’s one possibility.
Some nice finds coming up
Thanks for watching.
excellent finds there lad!
Are the two bronze objects part of a pomel instead of a spindle worl?
hmm good shout. Possible. will let the flo take a look.
nice finds. Too bad the silver roman coin misses a piece but it's still a very nice find.
yeh they all had chunks out of them or very worn. still im very happy to have made the discovery. hope to be back there next year!
Hi have subscribed to your channel can i ask what you film with and how easy is it to get on to you tube as hope to start soon just getting as much advice as possible I use a manticore and have the deus 2 all three coils for both any advice most welcome like yourself love metal detecting shaune in Kent 👍
Welcome to the channel. I have an old iphone 10 which is enough for my needs. then use iMovie to edit. I used to use a GoPro 4 and VDSC editor but found it all very time consuming. editing an uploading from my phone is much easier.
Could that "strange George III coin" not be a coin at all? The front seemed to me to have "George Gordon' on it? Could that be a reference to Lord George Gordon and the anti-catholic Gordon riots about that time? Some sort of unofficial 'commemoration coin' perhaps?
Youre right. Search for ‘Evasion Token’ - makes for an interesting read!
Very nice evasion’ halfpenny. These counterfeit were commonly used here in Canada, I find a lot. They were mostly made the the US I believe Edit, by changing the motto and / or using dates when the government did not mint them, it can be argued they are not counterfeits and perhaps avoid the noose.
Lovely Roman
That site is absolutely amazing! Congratulations!!
You need to do something about the wind noise!
:(
Very nice. Well saved mate.
Wow, lovely Lizzy 6/-p. Well done indeed. John.
I had to go out for an hour watching this, I just hit the beach nothing brilliant but fun being out all the same
Just nice getting out sometimes, just to clear your head. i have days where i find nothing just like everyone else. Just gotta keep plodding away :)
Well 2020 was a very nice year, I'm only just starting out and cuz I live on a small island theirs not much land but its split up between alot of owners so I'm struggling to secure permissions as I don't want to upset anyone, I have found some modern coins and a few other interesting pieces of metal, it's all fun while learning to use this machine as a total novice.
keep at it, you’ll soon find the history hot spots!
I ain't seen anyone pull out a lump of gold b4 now that's a dream find, I just purchased a shilling a 2 shilling and a silver 3 penny and if I find any of them metal detecting I'd be a happy lad indeed...
hack gold is actually one of the more common finds if youre near a bronze age site along with axes. the hack gold was used to trade before coinage came along.
Interesting stuff 🤔
As always, nice finds Darren and Co. Thanks for the upload.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Absolutely fantastic day! I’m looking at possibly heading to England this summer for a couple days of digging. It’s just a short flight from Germany thank goodness.
Have fun!
Nice finds. Always enjoy your vids
Awesome thank you!
Cracking hammered finds. 👍
Thanks 👍
Some great finds. Cheers, John.
Glad you enjoyed it
