Combined Powers - A Phone Call Led Me To My Best Find!

Another great metal detecting day! Watch me make an incredible discovery during a phone call, after some struggle.
I'm a "glass is half empty" guy when it comes to metal detecting.
When a hunt isn't unfolding the way I want, I quickly start to see everything in dark colors. My thoughts are: "The area was hunted out, probably yesterday"... "The finds are out of reach." "My detector has no depth, while everyone else is digging to China, etc."

For some reason my metal detecting compass always kicks in sooner or later and leads me to the finds, but until this point I'm constantly questioning everything, myself included.

When my Mother called, you could "hear" my disappointment :). I believe, she has psychic powers too (in her case, telepathic...).
I didn't intend to "release" this footage at that time, but now I think different about it... If it's part of the hunt, so be it.

I thought a few times in the past about moments that led me to my best finds and came to the conclusion, that it isn't not a calculated strategy, but rather something that happens subconsciously.
This time I was really struggling a bit, despite having found a coin and an old buckle (which I even forgot to mention during the call).

As soon as I found the first ring, the hunt was on and you saw what happened then. Six medieval rings and a tiny, beautiful buckle (probably connected at some point in time) felt like very special finds to me. The 1450-1600 buckle had even the leather strap still attached. I found a similar item online: https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/285636

I moved on shortly after, because I couldn't do much more technically.
Today I would probably use a different setting, but back I did the best I could and investigated even a few (ferrous sounding) whispers. Maybe some day I will revisit this spot with a deeper setting, after rain (for better conductivity).

It was another memorable relic hunt. I hope you liked it.
Thanks for watching.
