Enjoy watching your sunny hunts. I am a Brit detectorist since '77. Many people watching this will not appreciate the long hours of finding nothing but trash and the perceverance it takes in order to strike the good stuff. (It looks so much easier than it is!) I detect the fields and forests around my home in Normandy now. (Beaches in Normandy come with hazards for obvious reasons. lol) My oldest silver is 100 B.C though the average age is 17th century. The oldest gold is also 100-ish B.C and most of my gold finds are 14th century hammered coins. Youngest gold is 1808. Age, like everything else, is relative. Good hunting. Nothing is better than a good signal. I am getting a bit older now so hunts are shorter....but it sure is hard to stop when the signals are good.

When we were kids we were in Florida when Hurricane Agnes came through - we found hundreds of .50 cal shells, spent .50 cal bullets, shell fragments (likely the copper you found), and it was a blast!

Now that you got all that new equipment you're going to have to start bringing a backhoe with you 😅😂
