The Staffordshire Hoard, the latest find of ancient gold artefacts in a farmers field, uncovered by a metal detector. The delicate workmanship is really amazing on the tiny pieces on show.

I found this watch fob while taking part in a Scottish Metal Detecting Rally in 2011.

 

It was found in a field near the Parish Church of Kinneswood and Portmoak near Loch Leven in Kinross.

Apparently the greatest number of these found in the UK have been in Thanet England. (Thanet/Tanit)

Sand scoops for metal detecting are a little pricey for a once a year beach trip. Here is an attempt to create one from the cone of an old aluminum sauce pan The pan was $0.50 at a local second-hand store.

 

The Aluminum is light, won't rust, and drills easily.

 

I drilled 3/8 in. holes in at regular intervals and then widened them to about 1/2 with a file. This is large enough for wet sand, but small enough to keep a dime in.

Two pin-pointers for metal detecting are compared. One is more expensive, but I prefer it -- just seems more durable and reliable. The less expensive model seemed to keep beeping when wet.

I think this guy found all the good stuff....I found so many Corona bottle caps, I think I got tipsy touching them.

L.A. & C.G. Ellis had the Soughtwood Plantation near Geismar, Louisiana in the late 1880s and in the early 1890s. Sugar and cotton plantations, sawmills and coal minds (in part due to their often isolated locations) would either payemployee or advance them cresit in tokens good only at the commissary. This prsctice of easy credit often led to indebtness (as Tennessee Ernie Ford sang, "I Owe My Soul To The Company Store")

This is a record illustration of an Iron Age terret made of bronze. A terret is a metal ring, they have been found in sets of four fixed to the wooden shoulder yoke in Iron Age chariot burials. The yokes are for a pair of ponies, the terrets guides the the two sets of rains from the chariot and driver to the heads of the ponies. This terret had dark blue and yellow enamel set into the bronze knobs on either side, the top one is missing. It was a reported metal detector find found in spoil from a ditch. The illustration was produced to scale at twice the size of the object, so that it was possible to show more fine detail. When it is published it is reduced to same size with a scale. Objects are published as drawings rather than photographs so that there is no perspective in the image, and they can be measured. In a drawing it is also possible to leave out areas of corrosion and show very fine detail it would not be possible to show in just one image of an object as you can in a drawing.

Have had the urge to do this for years and only got round to getting one recently. This was taken on my first trip out.

An attempt to find value. I went to the house twice today, picked a small, high probability site each time and dug everything I found in each hole.

 

Lots of nails.
