Heading to England for some Detecting!

Full Metal Digger

I am excited to tell you I am heading to England in February for 7 days of detecting. I'll be going with one of those groups (Colchester County) and living in a barn just like IllDigger did! I'm looking forward to finding some English hammered coins for my collection!
 
How exciting! With your expertise you are sure to find some hammys, Dave! I hope you will be shooting some video.

Will it be cold there in February?
 
I hope you will be shooting some video. Will it be cold there in February?

Thanks Tony, yes I will be shooting lots of video! I think it will be chilly and damp weather for sure. I just hope it isn't one of those horrible wind storms with driving snow like Tim got when he went! One of my detecting buddies over here in Germany is going also.

making me jealous.jpg just when I thought I couldn't hate you any more Dave !:lol:
 
WOW!! You're living the detectorist's dream of late, Dave! I plan on going the day I retire...except I might change the barn part :lol:
You're going to keep us interested when there is 4 feet of snow on the ground and it's -5. Looking forward to your posts!
 
Sounds like a great trip Dave. I know you're going to well there, maybe that elusive gold coin!!!
I think Jeff is going to be there in Feb. as well.
Looking forward to your posts & videos.
 
That's awesome DD! That's almost as good as being able to detect in Germany!

Yeah, I'm a bit jaded now. I'll be looking for the 1100's & 1200's hammered coins. I already got the newer stuff! LOL!

It's more of a loathing than actual hate isn't it Del? ;)

I'm hoping to have some great stories and pics to help warm you up.

Thanks Don, I hope to get that gold coin real soon and yes, I am meeting Jeff for this hunt. He texted me and said there was an open slot if I wanted it. So I begged Stacy and stomped my feet until she said yes!
 
Jeff will find the gold coin. He's got the horseshoe somewhere on him. Good luck to you both!

Welcome to the club mate! :ukflag:

We need to talk to one of the barn leaders and set up a American Detectorist barn hunt! That should be awesome! (sorry John).
