Today, I would like to share a very special experience from May of this year, when me and my buddy Prospektor roamed a forest I was really excited about for a long time. In the evening before this hunt, we did a conference call, where I showed him a few spots on this map and explained, that after long time of not visiting this old place of mine, I gained a bit of perspective and out-of-the-box thinking about old pathways there and human activity in medieval and ancient times. I was sure, that we will find something and it will be spectacular. My friend responded, that he trusts my instinct and we shall go there the very next day. And so we did. The first two hours were terrible, because there were almost no signals, even shotgun shells seemed to be absent. But then, we spotted a steep slope sporting some really nice big stones and we immediately chose to climb there and try detecting this area. It was actually my friend's idea, but we both seemed captivated by the looks of this place. And it was indeed a good idea. You can now check out, how the coin spill started and how we managed to dig the rest of it.
I consult my finds with an archaeologist and hand over the finds for research and documenting. I had only good experience working with the experts in their fields and recommend cooperating with archaeological institutions to every metal detectorist out there.
If you're interested in the gear I use in my videos, you can check the list in the ABOUT section of my channel. I plan on releasing some metal detector testing videos in the future.
Thanks for watching and see you again!
