  • Hey is this good at picking up gold or jewelery and stuff? cause im gonna be buying my first metal detector but i dont know which one to go with. Please help if you can

  • hahaha that bow tie is a " rare find " LOL

  • @4KinnelFire - Exhilarating to see how these laws were made for the economic advantage of the government but with respect for the royal family and government , this law still does not seem fair. We should not forget that during Victorian times British archeologists were sent by the royal family and the British government to steal precious objets from other countries without respect. I agree that it is nice to see these objets at the museum but why only there ? a different point of view.

  • i wish i had a mental detector

  • @mushroom2you I'm from england and "god save the queen? " i'm not too fussed about saving her, personally i would like to hang the lot of them!!!

    They are nothing but parasites feeding off the poor of the land. Ahh! feel better now!....

  • @m00ngaz3r75 It is declared treasure trove or belonging to the crown, if a hoard of gold or silver, jewels etc is found. The finder gets full market value of the find .

    This is a safe way of, lets say ensuring everyone is happy, The finder gets his reward or full value of the find, & the crown or government are also happy, because any significant historical finds get to stay in the country and are displayed in museums. Otherwise it would all be sold quietly on the black market!.

  • looks like loots off the bodies after a conflict.

  • @theonethatgoofs absolutely NO "vains" of gold on the planet. Veins yes.

  • might have been nice if they'd mentioned what machine he was using..
