A new Roman adventure begins! Join Miss Detectorist UK as coins fall from the earth along an ancient Roman road—now a quiet Wiltshire farm field. What starts as a routine dig turns into an extraordinary metal detecting day: a haul of 25 Roman coins and two incredible artefacts, including a beautiful bronze snake ring that hasn’t seen the light of day for nearly 2,000 years.
Step into the past with Miss Detectorist and her detecting buddy as they trace the footsteps of Roman Britain, uncovering stories buried beneath the soil. From the first signal to the last astonishing find, this is one detecting adventure Miss D will remember. 25 ROMAN COINS!…what?!!!! AND a ROMAN SNAKE RING

I can’t wait to watch this one.
Along those lines, the UK series, “Detectorists” is both humorous and endearing.
She’s got a raft of vids, probably won’t post more, at least for a while, but here’s the link to her vids list, plus her self-description:

Description
Hello! I’m Miss Detectorist UK - searcher of objects, artist and filmmaker - exploring ancient British landscapes with my detector 🇬🇧 For detectorists, wilderness lovers, and anyone fascinated by Roman life, British history, and archaeology. Follow my journey metal detecting the English countryside. You’ll meet a few of my team and come to rallies and events.
Found any treasure yet? Gold, Bronze Age and Roman artefacts, silver hammered coins, Anglo-Saxon and medieval finds. But my real passion is the story each object tells about people and places. With help from experts and YOU we’ll crack the code of time! (...and, have a LOT of fun trying)
Miss D.
Thanks!
Awesome.
I often think about that in my backyard in Michigan.😊👍
thx!
Great group!
Thanks for the link!
😊
Will send to a metal detector friend of mine.
If you find something of value, keep your mouth shut. If not the government will be coming around either for a cut or just seize it all.
