We all have dreams of finds like this!! Enjoy!
Damn!
Yeah,Epic!!
One more time - congrats!
As for the nature of your find - couple of years ago we found about two hundred coins from early nineteen hundred in the middle of English field.
Turned out it was a house standing there that was destroyed by fire and when they buldozered the leftovers the can with change that was hiding somewhere in basement was destroyed and coins later were spread around by plough.
What I mean - do you know about any houses been there in the past?
Thanks IDX and everyone else... Yeah it must have been hidden. I have found no evidence of a bag or jar etc, so not sure how they were originally stashed. Any detector would have found these coins. I was just the lucky guy to get the coil over them.Gary,that’s gotta be a cache, or a stash as Terra said...nobody has that fall out of their pocket. You need to keep looking HARD in a fairly large ever expanding circle if things allow. This could all be several jars of buried coins that haven’t all been found yet. You have stumbled upon something that is SO rare it’s not even on the average detectorists radar. Good luck in finding more,because you WILL find more if you’ve found THAT in this amount of time.
Nice shot of the coins with the machine. It’s not necessarily that another brand of machine couldn’t have found them,but to me,if you really like the machine you’ll use it more. If you use it more,the chances of finding something goes up,a simple numbers game if you will. The fact that the CTX is incredibly proficient in finding things,and along with the “frills” that it has, keeps it in my hands exclusively.
Best of luck you lucky f*cker!! Literally the find of a lifetime.
Thanks Boris,One more time - congrats!

I think at the end it asks if you want to save the video. You can download it from Facebook too as an MP4HUUUUUUUUUGEEEEEE CONGRATS !!!!!
BTW, How do you save the FB live ? I always wanted to try to post a live dig LIVE.....but wasn't sure if I would be able to save the footage......Must be it stays on my page to view later ??
Congrats again......
Was wondering the same thing. What was on this location and what is it now? A field, a neighborhood,?
I like how you roll - bringing in the dozers
Congrats and keep working it
I know Tom! No gold. Stinking Silver.. Typically I wrinkle my nose as modern silver, but when you are talking piles of it.. It is kind of nice. I am glad the video came out alright. It was a fun experience having more people "with me"What ?? No gold coins ? We're bored. JUST KIDDING ! That is "epic" just as everyone is saying And the "live-dig" in-situ video capture is just mouth-watering for any md'r to watch. Thanx for sharing .
