Those are nice finds. It might be interesting just to use a metal detector around our garden. We dig up various old stuff and we know people have lived here for a long time. A friend of a friend finds all sorts with his detector. Even the scrap metal he finds gets collected and he can sell that for some extra money.
Have you seen this British comedy about detectorists?
Metal detecting in Europe must be so much fun. You should get a cheaper detector just to see what you find! To think of all the history there, it must be amazing. In America we go crazy over something 200 years old haha.
That show is funny and pretty accurate. I will have to search for more episodes. I already want to watch more haha.
Thanks for stopping by.
People find stuff from over 1000 years ago sometimes. I guess you have to know your local history to look in the right places.
Yeah research is key. Everyone in Europe should have a metal detector haha. I would be happy for a month if I found an ancient Roman coin haha. If you need any help or advice on some start up equipment let met know. My first post in the above article gives some starter advice. Cheers.
Not sure I have the time for another hobby right now. I'll keep looking out for stuff in my garden. Got a nice little collection.
Nice! You should post some of those finds!
Here are some of them
Nice finds man! The pipe bowl was awesome. I think there are coins there for sure!
