Another great night in the office! 🪙✨Last night's live stream was an absolute blast, and a massive step up from the night before! The ground was generous to us, keeping us busy with tons of targets from start to finish.Here are a few highlights from the hunt:
George 3rd Pennies:
Elizabeth II "Boat" Half Penny: A truly lovely find and a beautiful piece of history.
Tons of Targets: Non-stop action that kept the detector swinging all night long.
See u all tonight 🤞

An amazing night detecting last night! We went searching for the rest of that golden fob seal. We couldn’t find it, but in the process, I dug up this beautiful Charles I silver sixpence hammered coin. I also found some Georgian toasted copper coins and musket balls. Typical nice detecting!The ground conditions have been atrocious lately. However, I’ve been using the CKG Roots Layer shovel and my mind is blown. It has made digging so much easier. The narrow tip on the head penetrates the tough soil effortlessly. I highly recommend this shovel. Check it out now under the accessories tab on my website!#metaldetecting #coinshooting #historyhunter #ckgrootslayer #treasurehunting

Found loads of little targets last night! The Minelab Manticore paired with the 15-inch coil was sniffing out every single bit of scrap metal in the ground.Luckily, it picked up some incredible history too. My absolute best find of the night was this beautiful Queen Victoria 1866 silver sixpence.Winner winner, happy days! 🪙✨#metaldetecting #minelabmanticore #silvercoin #historyfound #coinhunting

What a rollercoaster of a night live streaming with my mate Terry! 🎥 It started off painfully quiet, but patience absolutely paid off. I was swinging the Minelab X-Terra Elite last night, and it absolutely delivered the goods—you can find this exact machine over in my TikTok showcase! 🙌Look at these unbelievable finds:First up, this absolutely beautiful 1818 silver coin. It’s roughly the size of a sixpence and in stunning condition—that silver pop never gets old! 🪙✨Then things got beautifully weird. Check out this tiny, random St. Bernard dog! 🐕 It looks like it was broken off an old ornament, but the craziest part? It has a literal bullet wound right in its side! Talk about a piece with a history to tell. 💥To top it all off, a well-loved, worn-down little Vicky Penny to add to the history pile. 👑It just goes to show you should never pack up early. What a night!5
