A great day out with the oldest finds being two coins of King James VI , son of Mary Queen of Scots, from 1603 to 1625
Plus we got coins from the early Georgian period some epic silver and some interesting relics too!

In the future treasure hunters will have to invent a plastic detector to find our lost items

The lead figure looks like a "Bokkenrijder" as we call them in the Netherlands. It"s loosely translated as "Buckrider". Duiring the Middle Ages it was believed that people who had a pact with de devil (witches and wizards) rode on the backs of bucks during the night. Late in the 18th century the name "Bokkenrijders" was given to a group of thieves and robbers between 1740 and 1798 in 'de Landen van Overmaas' and 'Graafschap Loon'

Thanks Saami for that amazing information, I’ll need to look it up. We get occasional finds from the Netherlands and we were trading with you often so it would make sense. Much appreciated

What a great day for you and the lads. Those Turners are outstanding, especially the one that shows some detail. That spoon is also very cool, I think it is a salt spoon, as salt was a bit of a rare item it was administered by small quantities by the wealthy, those of us who were below the salt weren't able to season our food (which were naught more than scraps that the Toffs didn't wish to eat). Well done, great finds. Btw, do ever find any good tatties you can take home on those fields? I know I've seen some wee ones, which I love deep frying, they're quite tasty.

Twopenneth worth on the lead figure. Could be a clown or minstrel on a bear which was meant to represent circus characters in the days when bears were part of circus acts. Difficult to date I think, but lead toys were made right through 19th into 20th century.

I am a new subscriber and detector from America. I wonder why you use such a short handled digging tool? I use, what we call, a "trenching shovel". It is about 6 inches wide and seems much easier to handle than your spade. Just curious. Enjoy your show very much. Thank you for making the history come alive with the explaining.

Many thanks Robert and welcome to the channel. I just like a small compact spade. Generally finds are in the top 6-8” and with all the recording equipment I carry I’m already laden down with stuff, so the shorter spade is also lighter and works better for me.
