My son has Autism and gets very overworked and emotional (sensory moment) whenever he leaves the house. Yesterday we tried by taking him to the beach & he absolutely loved it. Spent 2 hours counting and stacking stones and he was overjoyed with happiness. So proud of my boy!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/MadeMeSmile
So, I was advised by an elderly resident that a local school field ( school is no longer open), that it used to be an army camp. Took my detector over there and over the course of two, 2 hour trips, I've had these coins. All dating back to Victorian era, up to both king Georges. WOW!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
I was told to post these here by another redditor. Cigarette cards circa.1930s4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/reddeadredemption
Gold ring, said to be a Posey ring from around 1700s. Couldn't be more chuffed!!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
The first hoard found by my local club ?unfortunately not by myself). All the necessary actions have been taken. Over 30 roman coins and 2 gold roman rings were uncovered. An astonishing find! (Found in Sussex, U.K.)4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Not sure if I have posted this on this sub before. But this is my favourite find without a doubt. Still astounded on how it stayed so well kept underground! All I have done is wash this in warm water!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
A few roman coins I found this morning on a new field I've recently got permission on (booked the morning off work for this reason)! I will update with a cleaned up picture once I'm finished up at work today!4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/AncientCoins
So after finding my first silver roman on my new (permitted) field, I went back yesterday and had 19 Roman coins. God is on my side this week! Not sure if worth cleaning any as they are so frale with little detail5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
By far the mintest conditioned coin i have found detecting. Still baffled as to how it had stayed so pristine in the ground for so long?!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
I started 2019 with only 2 roman coins. This year's permissions the local club managed to get chucked up hundreds of roman coins between all of us. My first denari being the best find I've ever had and probably ever will! Bring on 2020!4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
After taking another redditors advice on cleaning this with distilled water, tooth picks and cotton buds, I am starting to get somewhere. A pain staking process, but very happy with it so far.5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting

Finally found a Queen Victoria farthing- 1861. Pretty good condition too!4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
One of my favorite coins. Pretty sure it's a 3 Pence before it was engraved and rubbed down. Looks like it was worn on a necklace, but never found that5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
I post on here alot, I promise you the truth, but I had these 3 beauty's in one day. Dreams happen5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting

A little metal toy dog, with a small bell inside! Can only guess the era of this, but I am assuming Victorian.4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Few hours down the beach today. Makes a difference to pasture, and you earn yourself a few quid too! [Sussex-U.K]4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Pain staking clean up process, using distilled water, tooth picks & cue tips! This is how far I've got, not completely cleaned, but I love how it's turned out.5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/AncientCoins
Some metal toys I've found along my travels. I assume the two planes were made around the world war eras, not too sure on the metal dog though (has a small bell inside)?5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
For those of you that saw my large haul of coins that I posted on here yesterday, here are the other badges and buttons I found as well. Some are from the war, but others not too sure. All good fun!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
A few pieces I've found in the last year, which in pretty sure I haven't posted yet. Unsure on the bottom left peice with the pattern on it, so any help would be appreciated!4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Can anyone help me identify this coin/love token? The reverse face is completely worn.5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Picked these old cigarette cards up today! From U.K and were made back in 60s. Any idea if these are worth anything?4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/ThriftStoreHauls
FINAL FORM- Apologies for the constant uploads of this coin from the moment I found it, and the different stages of cleaning, but I'm too proud not to! Thanks for the advice on cleaning and all the nice comments guys, much appreciated!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/AncientCoins
I have already posted this, but this time better quality picture. This is my first roman silver I have ever found metal detecting, and I plan on getting it tattooed on me. However, I need to know the EXACT COIN it is and I cannot seem to find a definite. Please help me redditors!!5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/pics

Hi guys, I found this earlier in the year under a tree [South U.K]. It's a small glass bottle [right] that was in a metal case [left]. I've had a few people tell me what it could be, the main one being a medicine bottle used in the war, although I'm not 100% convinced. Any help with ID please?4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
I'm having real trouble finding what coin this is. Can anyone tell from this picture the era (roughly) so I can have a look through my spink book? The front has a queen(or king) facing forward, but condition not great.5yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
I know this isn't a metal detecting find like I normally post, but I thought the members on this sub may be able to help, being collectors of old 'things' etc. These are 10 full collections of cigarette cards from the 1920s, and 8 pristine John Player packs. Please read below for info I need helpon4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Hi guys, I recently found this small peice that has this pattern on. It looks to me to have been snapped off of something, but unsure what. Can anyone help me identify please?4yr ⋅ Lewks12 ⋅ r/metaldetecting
