Well done Mick, I found an 1842 Half Sov that was wrapped in sheet lead, thought it was rubbish until I saw a glint of gold and un wrapped a stunning coin. Always check flat lead .
Likewise.. We have been looking for a Sydney minted gold sovereign for years and the hard work finally paid off. Plenty of resurch into some old gold mining towns here in county Victoria ( Australia ) and we have found heaps of old English silvers relics etc now gold yaaa x
Huge Congrats to Mick.Seeing that awesome gold coming out of the ground is something he'll never forget.Now he has to wait another ten years for his next one...Thanks for sharing.
Congratulations Mick well done!!!! Glad you didn't have a heart attack, you was looking a bit overwhelmed there for a bit. Thanks for sharing Paul regards Sleepy
@@cointector everytime we dig a 75 on the Pro we just know its gunna be a bottle top........ But hope like mad itll be a sov. I'm envious muchly.😂 Im glad Micky jagged the sov. He gives you guys the permission, and you end up with so much good stuff. It's just poetic justice that Mick should score the real prize. But hey, where there's one..........
@@cointector heres hopin' cobber, here's hoping. I've got a permission I can only dig on after the crops are in. It starts again soon. The crops come off about end of Nov. Last year I scored a 1876, 1875, 1874 pennies and an 1853 halfa. Plus 3 cricket buckles. There's just gotta be more stuff there. Just gotta find it. But the height of the stubble is the issue. It's cut at about 10" so I use my 4500 with a big coil for depth.
Well done Mick. A gorgeous 1862 Sydney Mint Gold Half Sovereign. A very historic Australian coin. I detected a 1861 Sydney Mint Gold Half Sovereign up here west of Charters Towers about 20 years ago so l know how you feel Mate. Well done.
Watching this again Paul mate, get rid of the unicorn tears mate and get a bloody decent spray bottle 😂.. but I’ve noticed a theme mate, every Sov I’ve seen being found is always in the middle of a bloody ants nest 😂.. Bring on the weekend mate 😂
Haa yeah you might be onto something lol . Ps guy and his crew hooked us up with awesome unicorn 🦄 tears bottles. I’ll pull it out on the next video. Ps 2 detectors up for grabs tonight in the minelab show. I think they’re the vanquish but hay it’s a good little backup plan lol 😂
HUGE,HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO MICK,,The feeling of finding a sovereign,,,unbelievable,,great stuff boys,,GET ON.!! What did it ring up on the Nox,?? Bit average I bet Paul,,,bloody wicked effort Mickey,,💪💪
Well done lads, well done. I have a story about a bottle of Sov's that my dad got involved with, Someone hid them from her hubby back in the day and forgot where she hid them. My dad got involved in trying to look for them and he said it is 100% legit. I know the area so we will be searching for for some goldies soon. Just Subbed. Great coin. Cheers Brad
Awesome brad sounds like a great hunt. If they have buried them in a glass jar it would probably be a shit signal you’re chasing so I would dig most targets even the not so good sounding ones . Good luck would be awesome if you found them 👍
@@cointector Apparently they are in a glass jar, but I will dig everything. Recently just found a jar full of Pennies and Half pennies in Tallebudgera creek, 160 or so and they where in a glass jar, all in good nick too ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NKvm5j1MMX8.html check it out. Cheers Brad
I found a half sovereign when I was a young boy where a new house was being built. It was sticking out of the clay and shining like a diamond, Location was about 400 metres from the Eureka Stockade.
did you swing the nox over it too , if you did what did it ring up at ?????? i have an 800 as well which i have had for 2 years and hardly used .found most of my stuff over the last 8 years or so with my old xterra 705. johno
Some collectors pay upto $4000 for a good condition gold sov coz they DESPERATE to get as many as they can. They ALSO aware these gold sovs will be worth 8 times as much in less than 10 years LOL OOPS SECRET'S OUT 😆
@@cointector You now know a little known secret, MOST ppl in the metal detecting community plus the coin collecting community DON'T want to many ppl knowing that. My sister is very aware of it she already has 38 gold sovs she also aggressively collecting them lol, greedy bitch 😆
