Give me a break.
Folks playing the poor card.
Yet can buy the habit.
Nope not going there.

It's like a panhandler on the street.
Drinking a $3-4 drink, smoking a factory made smoke, on the IPhone.
Asking for $.00
Ya right🤣🤣🤣

Like this Kentucky farmer who found that hoard of coins in his field. Field of Dreams

Daggone it!!! Missed it by that 🤏 much!!!

 

[ARC]

Its not about the $ ... its about the method.
I have no way of doing it short of sending $20 in the snail mail.
Which i did do once a long time ago...
reluctantly due to the thought of it being lost or.

I did have the thought of sending $20 in crusty salt water eaten pennies just for kicks once.

 

[WHADIFIND]

Even better than that....multiple Spanish galleons from the same fleet. Lots of coins coming up 4 and 8 reales !! Thousands and thousands of them !!

Doesn't mean a thing to anyone but the one finding. 🤭

At least she doesn't have a purse to hold. 😂 I love giving the business to men holding their wife's bag outside a fitting room! "Excuse me sir, I really love that bag, can you tell me where you got it?" Them- "It's NOT MINE, not my bag, this bag is NOT MINE, I don't carry a bag, not my bag." 🤣

The video interviews the "Dirt Nerds"

Well these guys are permission wreckers as I see it.
There are a few segments of the video showing gaping holes left in the field.
"Oh sure they went back and filled these back in" 😉 😉

Here's a screen grab of the one dude detecting over previous dug holes.
Yup-arseholes

Prove me wrong.

Probably not in this case but I've had farmers tell me to not worry about filling in the holes I made in their fields. They said it was just aerating the soil. 😏

If all else fails, flaunt it!

A freshly plowed before its groomed a possible.
My England club would ban you for not filling.
Lazy ass detecting that's what it is.
Ankle twisting holes that's what it is.
They're detecting hay/pasture in the video, which makes no sense.
Animals can take a bad leg stepping a shovel hole.

2 examples:
I stated to a farmer's relative when they saw me smooth out my hole.
"You sure tidy up your digging "

I stated its a requirement by the club when digging in England.
Plus its not my dirt so I as a detectorist respect that I am allowed to dig.

"Well there should be no other way"

The local harvester (cuts 1000s of acres) stated this:

Haven't you been digging anything out in the field Jim?"

Oh yes I have been digging many targets at the 3 sites back there.

"Oh it was just that I have driven around all of the places and haven't seen a single hole"

My reply: Bob you're never going to see one either.

Take some pride in this passion and the stewardship that is shown goes miles in obtaining permissions.

There's my take on that subject.

Even if they say ok-still do a nay.

Told a friend to go cover the holes he left.
We're out here in the woods , no ones going to see them ,was his reply.
Doesn't matter I said.
Don't want anyone knowing we were here. Took me long enough to find the site.

These coins have been washed in the sea for almost 500 years.....hundreds of thousands of them !!😎😎

Yeah, it was my arid sense of humour as usual.
You know, so much there I can almost taste it, be careful what you put in your mouth.....
I'll just be getting my hat.......

We have the same thing here.

 

[pepperj]

We have the same thing here.

It's the new version of reality sir.
Just chatting with 2 MTO surveyors.
One fellow said 5 yrs ago he could leave his kayak down by the river 2 blocks from his home.

Now it's an encampment of tents. We can't go near there, nor the splash pad at the city park.
They use it as a bathing place.

Can't complain as it's deemed hateful and racist.
I told him that folks have tried to set up camp around my world.
Tents disappeared, everything gone.
They moved on soon enough.

No welcome mat here.
