During the summer time, which is pretty bad for metal detecting because of crops, I decided to try a forest area, which I wanted to visit for a long time. Unfortunately, during my visit, I found out, that there is almost no place, which does not have a thick vegetation and I could not detect most of the areas. I walked around 5 kilometres and was pretty tired and decided to head out of the forest. I walked in a direction of some of my spots and hoped that I might find a small field available for detecting just by chance. After walking for 20 minutes, I indeed found a big plowed field. I started detecting it and found a small collection of modern coins, but there were not so many signals. I decided to cross it to the other half and I swung my coil carelessly. While walking, I stumbled upon a small weak signal. I immediately thought it can be a small silver coin. When I dug it out, I could not believe it! It was a small gold coin!
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!
