Summer detecting trip to England!

[Goldstrike]

I'm really looking forward to another detecting trip to England this coming Summer! The coins (none of them valuable) in the pic are just a few of the many coins I detected from one of the parks there. I'm lining up some spots (getting permission) to detect and I'm hoping my brother and myself can discover one or two of those Celtic and old English gold hoards they have found in recent years! I'd settle for a couple of gold 'Nobles' though

GS, happy to hear you'll be going back again. I'm sure that you're counting down the days. Hope to read about your lost hoard recovery right here ! Best of Luck.

Thanks Ken.....yes, counting the time, it's a little ways off still but something great to look forward to. The weather has been chilly (believe it or not)! down here in SoCal but looking for the Spring and Summer months when the beaches fill up and you know what happens then! people loose stuff!!!

Sounds like a great trip! Hoping to get over there one of these days. Would love to find something from the Roman days.
Looking forward to seeing your finds.

Thanks Bunker......I don't know if anyone is familiar or ever seen the 'Thames Mudlarks' on Utube? (as in the river Thames in London) These guys get some truly amazing stuff from the exposed bed of the Thames river when the tide goes out during the day.
The regulations on retrieving those relics and coins are highly restricted, even IF you can get permission to go down there in the first place!!....and you can only go down 3 inches max in the mud and crud and there is some very nasty stuff in there!!!.......but you ought to see the stuff they retrieve!! Check them out on Utube.
