Well, viewing your video was mesmerizing
you all seemed to have so much fun
I'm surprised you were so successful since you were all over recording
I have many questions and hope you will respond
What company do you use and have you used them every year you have detected in England?
I run these through Colchester Trearure hunting, for 7 years now
Do you get to take your finds home with you after screening or must they be mailed?
Finds must be left for export paperwork which takes about 2 to 3 months, you can pick them up on a future trip or have them mailed
If there are gold coins found and they get mailed through the post are they then in jeopardy of being stolen in transit?
Any gold items found should be brought back personally, even If I had to bring them back for someone.
How do you recharge your batteries at the end of the day for the next day of detecting?
I only use regular batteries when in england, chargers can go bad of fry at any time
What month are you detecting in the video and what are your suggestions for being prepared for the weather?
I hunt for 3 weeks in the spring (end of march)Current video and 3 weeks in the fall (beginning of Oct) Good waterproof boots and rain gear and a posative attitude no matter what the weather.
Your camera was wonderful and so impressive, what type was it?
Sanyo, xacti duel waterproof HD camera Mine is green
You have long days of detecting, what recommendations would you suggest for ahunt in September for just one week?
Workout a couple months prior to the hunt squats and deep knee bends and walk
Do you use any equipment during the hunt aside for the detector and probe?
If you have trouble swinging for 10 hours get a swingy thingy
I will be visiting England in September for almost two weeks but will be detecting for only one of those weeks and could use any advice form someone who has done it so often and learned the hard way.
dig every repeatable target above iron. Some of the small hammered silver are quite low silver content and come in like foil. Don't cherry pick dig all good targets above iron!
I am also amazed you all were able to take three weeks for you adventure.
I do this twice a year. My wife is a Saint!
Thank you
