Large Gold Hoard Found

[Mike(Mont)]

Just more of your phony logic. You really ought to read the book. You have so much self-doubt it just stifles you. You obviously can't even comprehend what an open mind is. "I think I'm an alright guy. I really do!"

I probably have a bigger dowsing library than you could ever dream of owning. A lot of very collectible old volumes, not to mention a ton of research material and communications. I had a copy of Supersensonics, and when I was done reviewing it, I sold it on eBay for a small profit. Some other poor sap now has to figure out what he is going to do with it.

I'm glad you think you are an alright guy. Has holding that thought in your mind helped you to be a more accurate dowser? Or do you have to keep repeating it to yourself, sort of like a self-help mantra?

BTW, Mike; since you seem to be in the elite group of individuals who have a clue - please share with the rest of us how thought energy can set up a wave-field around an object. Waiting patiently for that kind of information. Maybe the answer was in my copy of Supersensonics, but like the rest of the phony baloney in that volume; ....it was a waste of good trees to print that thing.

Found with a White's, no less!

That hoard will end up in the British Museum, next to all the other hoards that are labeled, "Found with a metal detector."

Carl,
do you know the model???

Hi,
this is the way British Museum collected many valuable items today and in recent years, BIG discoveries made BY METAL DETECTORS and amateur treasure hunters.
Then the british laws suit the scenario with wonderful and reasonable rules that make all win.
So the really big go to all museums of "some" other countries where archeo-guys go hunting with camel-butt-hairs-brushes and find nothing as valuable as this stuff is.

But there's no limit to human stupidity, this confirms the fundamental rule.

Kind regards,
Max

Carl,

That's "most important" question! Mother question! Question of all questions!!

I am joking....Geo friend! Ahahahah!
Why? I met so often same question.
My prospecting experiences so far tells me that MAIN FACTOR of success in prospecting is...... LUCK! Pure luck and nothing else!
It could be any other brand or model, never mind. If hoard was shallow enough - any other brand and model could do the job just fine.
All the fantastic finds i've being heard about so far, were made at shallow depths mostly - 99% cases.
So..considering that i am sure any brand and model would do the job just fine.
All you have to do is to have huge LUCK and nothing else.

Secret success formula:
- 95% LUCK
- 4% experience in prospecting
- 1% metal detector...

I read an article on Yahoo.

He asked a farmer friend if he could search his land. That explains how he lucked into it.

"I have the phrase I say sometimes, 'Spirits of yesteryear take me where the coins appear', but on that day I changed coins to gold. I don't know why I said it that day, but I think someone was listening and directed me to it."

Sounds like dowsing to me. Enough of the phony logic/assumptions that he said that everytime. People were dowsing thousands of years before L-rods were invented. It's an "awareness thing". Many dowsers attribute it to their superconscious. Where the subconscious is things known, the superconscious is things unknown to the person.

As for the Whites detector and "luck" I guess if he had been using a PI unit it would have been "skill" LOL. I have a Whites that's over 25 years old. It works way better for surface/shallow targets than does my Minelab Sovereign.

That i believe for sure. Last year i had Spectrum and was pretty amazed with it's performing. So old yet so useful. So as few other (brands and models) older detectors, from the past.
Sometimes man have to ask ; why some models are being discontinued?
(or replaced with newer and worse ones !?!?)

All OK, but what are doing this thread in remote sensing if the ancient treasure was found with regular MD?

That sounds right.
Maybe we should begin posting all those newspaper articles we read about ancient gold treasure hoards found by dowsing here.

Now I understand why all that asbestos migrated from europe and us to south america...

According to the article Theseus posted, they were not deep:
"Pieces were just literally sat at the top of the soil, at the grass," said Ian Wykes, of the county council. He said the hoard had been unearthed by recent plowing".

So, any BFO or toy detector can find it. Lucky man. I noticed that in GB and other european countries museums pay the correct price for the items found.
