Sorry for not getting any detecting videos out for a while - I've been working day and night on numerous pond building jobs, ebay and inventions.
Since I've only had time for a few short sessions I decided to bang a collection of clips into a few minutes of video.
Nothing startling here but my son does find his first spindle whorl which was really nice and gave a good signal on the Deeptech Vista Gold at a decent depth. He found a Georgian penny tonight so that will be coming up in a future video.
Apologies for the silliness at the end. I couldn't help myself.
Once I get myself sorted out I will release part 10 of Worldwide Metal Detecting Finds - it has a nation of great finds and will be a bumper episode.

Hello there, I do apologize for the lack of detecting videos lately.
I've been extremely busy digging holes and making ponds.
Now that that work's coming to an end for the end of the year,
I'll be able to get out a lot more detecting
and there'll be plenty more videos to come.
But in the meantime this is just a very quick collection of clips
from the very small short hunts that I've been doing lately.
This one
was a really
weak signal,
approximately
Oh, what's that? Six, seven inches down maybe.
And there's the imprint of a coin there.
So there's obviously a coin in this hole somewhere.
There he is. Oh, it's a silver as well.
First dig and it's a silver. Look at that.
I literally just stepped into the field.
There's the style.
Came over here, switched
the detector on and first dig.
Weak signal
And it's a 1925 sixpence.
What a cracking start.
There we go, see.
George the 6th penny. That's not too old. 1944.
Reasonable depth though, probably about 10 inches or so.
How deep the hole is just to find that to give a good signal
but they're awful to track down.
That's a
George
the 6th
Threepenny
bit,
three
pence
from
1940.
So James
found
this one
with the
Vista Gold and I'm not sure where it
is but it was giving a good signal.
I went over it with the e-track and it read 1242 both ways.
Spindle whorl, is it?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, yeah.
That's a totally unusual pattern.
It's like noughts and crosses.
Just flip it over.
It's blank on that side.
Let's have another look at the pattern side.
That's awesome.
We've never found one like that, and it's a big one.
What an unusual pattern, isn't it?
Yeah.
That's a good find.
Well done.
And here's an extra little coin.
I actually found this when I was out with my son,
James, who's in this video.
But it was a little bit too dark to take a video,
so I've just rubbed it.
Gently, just to bring up the detail, and I'll show you this.
Forgive the state of my hands, I've been painting a pond this morning.
That is a George III farthing, not quite sure how well that's coming up.
Seems to be okay there on the viewfinder.
Georgius III Rex, it says on there. And on that side,
we've got Britannia, it's actually written Britannia across the top,
and along the bottom it says 1754.
So that's a nice old coin
and it's actually got quite a lot of detail on it as well.
Normally you get these and they're just like flat discs.
That was pretty good. Hopefully I'll be
making a lot more finds in the near future.
Thanks for watching. Don't know what this is.
It was reading towards the left of the screen
which is quite a strange place for a coin to read
unless it's a small hammered
and this isn't a hammered coin.
There's definitely detail on it.
I don't want to rub it too hard in case I rub the detail off.
That's a five pence man.
With a decimal five pence, what an awful coin.
I am not gay,
I never have been gay.
