WINNER #1
My international Favorite Find for September 2021 is the Hoard of 17th Century James 1 and Charles 1 Coins, found by Tom B. from the UK with his Ace 250.
Tom’s success story: Hi, I managed to find a soldiers civil war coin hoard with the Garrett Ace 250 and just wanted to say what a great detector it is. It was 10 gold and 8 silver coins, I was speaking to a guy at Regton's (one of your distributors) at a detecting event and he mentioned to email you. The hoard is mentioned on Regton's website, and few other places online it can be found under Taunton civil war coin hoard. Thanks for your time. Keep up the good work.
From the Somerset County Gazette: Civil War’s soldier’s wages found in Taunton - almost 400 years on. The 18 silver and gold coins uncovered in a garden in Nerrols Farm, Taunton, totaled £5 5s 33⁄4d – 5 1⁄2 months wages for a common soldier in the 17th Century and £450 in today’s value. But the hoard, probably belonging to a Royalist soldier and left during the siege of Taunton in 1645, could fetch thousands of pounds when it is bought by the town’s Museum of Somerset. An inquest, which concluded the coins are treasure, heard how they were found by a young man in October as he took down a tree in his parents’ garden so they could build a workshop. His mother told the hearing in Taunton: “He saw something glistening so he took it out and realised it was a coin. He started to dig deeper and eventually found 18 coins in total.”
The coins – Thirteen from England, four Scotland and one Ireland – date from between 1601 and 1645. It is thought they were possibly stashed in a leather purse, which has since rotted away.
A report from The British Museum says: “The coins belong to the reigns of James I and Charles I and the period they cover and the denominations present are very similar to many other recorded coin hoards from the mid- 17th Century, the period of the English Civil War. They are a highly selected group of good condition, high value coins and do not simply reflect the general coinage in circulation at the time.”

WINNER #1
My International Favorite Find for August 2021 is the 17th Century Copper Coins Hoard, discovered by Andrey F. from Europe with his Ace 400i.
Andrey’s success story: The best day of the passing summer. The usual hot weekend in August did not bode well for anything unexpected. I sat on the veranda drinking my morning coffee. Suddenly my friend called. Two hours later, sweating under the last rays of the setting summer sun, we made our way with metal detectors along the vast harvested wheat field. Suddenly, there was a loud bell sound on my Garrett ACE 400i. After sweeping the coil at different angles, I realized that there was something interesting underground! Yes! Love that Garrett bell trill! I started digging. A silhouette of my comrade could be seen in the distance.
Having dug a hole deep into the bayonet of a shovel, the signal became even clearer and stronger! Here’s another half-bayonet, and the shovel hit some kind of vessel! Only one thought flashed through my head - this is a treasure!! And so it was! Yeees! I carefully began to rip up the ground around the find. From the pit, the outlines of a not small clay pot were already visible. It took my breath away. My heart sank, caught my breath a little, and pounded in my chest again. From a pit about 20 inches deep I took out a medieval pot stuffed to the top with 17th century fine copper coins !! This moment cannot be conveyed in words! The feeling of indescribable euphoria, joy, happiness and pride in my favorite metal detector overwhelmed my soul of a search engine on that wonderful day! Garrett!
Thank you for your reliable and so beloved devices! I’m happy :)
The hoard of coins was donated to the Poltava Museum of Local Lore.

WINNER #1
My International Favorite Find for July 2021 is the Prague Gross 1300 - 1305, Wenceslaw II, Kingdom of Bohemia Coin, discovered by Petr C. from Europe with his AT Max.
Petr’s success story: It was the twelfth of January, Christmas was finally over, and in the shop where I work, everything started to calm down at least a little. So I invite a friend from work to the detector and we go through the old carriages above the village. It’s snowing a little, it’s a few inches of snow on the ground and it’s freezing. We leave at 10am, one First Republic crown falls, two buttons, a cartridge case and three grunting savages. It looks miserable, my friend is freezing, so the decision is made to return home. But I still don’t turn off the detector, I don’t want to put up with a lousy treasure hunt.
Ten meters from the road, a double signal at 10 and 15 cm, 76, 78, 86, occasionally hums on the Garrett into the iron. I’m starting to dig, cursing at the supposed shotgun cartridge. It is stupidly traced between the roots. In the premonition of the shotgun, I angrily dig up with pickaxe. And then I dig out another handful of clay with my hand and the head of a lion and a piece of the inscription * GRO * laugh at me from the mud and snow. I just stare quietly and for the next few seconds my brain just doesn’t work. A friend behind me has already understood the critical information and is cursing at me. I’m still staring! I turn the coin and rub it. Only then I really realize what I found!

WINNER #1
My International Favorite Find for June 2021 is the set of Three Gold Sovereigns, discovered by Mick S. from Australia with his AT-Max.
Mick’s success story: WOW!! The three gold coins I found happened on Sunday, June 12th. It was a awesome day weather wise. I was with a group of 5 other fellow detectorists (4 of them swinging Garretts). There was finds coming out everywhere, a lot of early English coins but also American coins, Californian goldfield buckles, and an American powder flask. Americans featured heavily during the Australian gold rush in the early 1850s.
I was teamed up with a friend who decided to walk left and I went right and as you can imagine straight in to the path of the gold. At first all I seen was one coin flick out of the hole and I knew straight away that it was a gold coin! What I did not know was he had friends and to my amazement there was three all up. The coins where 4 inches down and rang up a 66 signal on the AT MAX. The area I found them in was the Victorian goldfields here in Australia. The coins are British Sovereigns dated 1842, 1844, & 1852. Love your machines hope a new one comes out soon.

WINNER #1
My international Favorite Find for May 2021 is the Golden Byzantine Cross, found by Roman Y. from Europe with the AT Max.
Roman’s success story: Garrett the BEST. Good day, dear GARRETT company! I am a longtime fan of your metal detectors. I started my search with the Garrett ACE 250 and continue with the Garrett AT MAX. On the eve of Victory Day, May 8, I had a day off. I drove out to a field that had been knocked out long ago. Previously, it contained Roman coins and fragments of antique ceramics.
You just won’t believe what I found! After about an hour of searching, I heard a weak, barely audible signal in the headphones! Oh yeah! Great, professional headphones, help you find very interesting targets! I started digging! And suddenly, something yellow appeared from the breast of the earth. It took me a while to realize what it was. But having cleared the find from the ground, my eyes looked at it for a long time and in surprise. Can not be! It’s just magic! Golden Byzantine cross!!! And I found it with Garrett AT MAX! This was the largest find possible in this field! It was a delight!
Thank you, dear Garrett, for unforgettable emotions!

WINNER #1
My International Favorite Find for April 2021 is the Viking Hoard, found by Kath G. from the U.K. with the AT Pro.
Kath’s success story: I have been detecting for around three and a half years and on 2nd December 2020 I was out detecting when I uncovered the most fantastic huge Viking period brooch and Gold Arm Ring whilst using my Garrett AT Pro with NEL Tornado coil.
I uncovered one of the terminals first and then moved on recovering the brooch and arm ring. Over a small area I recovered the remainder of the items which contains several arm rings which have been separated in antiquity.
I knew I had found something very special when I moved the soil away from one of the terminals of the brooch, but then I found parts of the pin, the hoop and underneath, the gorgeous gold arm-ring. I knew straight away that it was a significant and exciting find. I’m so thrilled to have found artefacts that are not only so important, but so beautiful!
I am relatively new to detecting but enjoy it enormously. I love my AT Pro and have submitted this to show detectorists what wonderful things are out there waiting to be found. For those who are digging lead, pipe, cans, and ring pulls, keep it up, be patient, and you will be rewarded.

WINNER #1
My International Favorite Find for March 2021 is the hoard of 15 Gold Coins of Tsar Nicholas II, found by Anatoly O. from Europe with his AT Pro.
Anatoly’s success story: Hello dear Garrett company! I want to show and tell about my first treasure. It all started with the fact that on my birthday, March 8, I decided to go dig. I found a place where a merchant once lived. I took my Garrett AT Pro metal detector and drove there. The place is very littered with modern rubbish. After signals from several cans, I got a great signal. Having dug up and saw another can, I already decided to go home. But on this jar, the patterns caught my eye. Looking closer, I realized that it was nothing more than a silver glass at the top, sealed with a silver pile with brands. The manufacturer’s brands have confirmed my guess - silverware from the Tsarist period of the 19th century! The glass was filled with a pile, and my imagination ran wild. Signals were still coming from this pit. In the end, I took out four more silver piles and a silver stand. In the end, I decided to open this glass. What I saw there made my heart pound in my chest! GOLD! GOLD! Result: a silver glass, stand, 5 piles, 15 gold coins of Tsar Nicholas II in denominations of 5 and 10 rubles (1896-1900). Thank you Garrett for the miracles you can allow us with your devices! It was a beautiful day!

My International Favorite Find for February 2021 is the Hoard of 54 Silver Roman Denarii, found by Maxim R. from Europe with his Ace 400i.
Maxim’s success story: Greetings to Garrett! My story is about how on February 14, Valentine’s Day, I discovered my first treasure. I arrived at the search field at about 9 am. After inserting new batteries into my beloved Garrett 400i, I decided to walk for a couple of hours. For an hour of searching, I came across a lot of garbage and the land did not bode well for anything interesting. But suddenly, the bell rang out that there is a relic! Oh yeah! These signals are what I love to dig! Ding, ding, ding! My Garrett was signaling non-ferrous metal clearly! Excitement seized me! Unfolding a lump of earth with a shovel, several coins jumped out to meet me! Blimey! I continued swinging the coil over the hole. The signals did not stop! My heart fluttered with joy! As a result, 54 silver Roman Denarii were found. Despite almost two thousand years, these coins lay in the ground, they are not badly preserved. It was a great holiday! More such finds :) Thank you, Garrett!

My International Favorite Find for January 2021 is the 17th Century Silver Hoard, found by Denis P. from Europe with his AT Pro.
Denis’s success story: Hello dear Garrett company! I want to share with you my new find. Exactly on New Year’s Eve, my Garrett AT Pro found five 17th century silver coins. In the forest, the ground was a little frozen, but it was possible to dig. Hearing an interesting signal, I peeled off the top layer of the earth, and several coins appeared to me. I returned two days later, hoping to find more. And that day I was lucky! Digging a little deeper, I came across a pot filled with coins mixed with earth. There were a lot of them! A real treasure! Having done my best, I dug out 2,570 silver coins. And I hope there are more in that place! After cleaning, the coins with the pot will be transferred to the local city museum. He who seeks will find!!!
Yours faithfully,
Denis P.

WINNER #1
My international Favorite Find for December 2020 is the Silver Georgian Cross Medal, found by Daria B. from Russia with her AT Gold.
Daria’s story: Hello!!! My name is Daria, I’m from Russia! I have been searching with the device for two years. My first device was a Garrett Ace 250. I was very pleased with it, there were many finds, but did not stop there. Half a year later, I bought a Garrett AT Gold, respectively, the scale of the search increased both on land and by water. I am very pleased with the device. In the fall of 2020, on another weekend, I went in search of one small village near my city, tried the new bigger coil from Garrett AT Pro, and the result amazed me.
The place has long been known to all treasure hunters and has been dug for many years, but THIS find was probably waiting for me! In a small foundation, or rather in the relief of an old house, with numerous debris, there were fragments of old dishes and various garbage that said, “YES, LIFE was in full swing in this house”.
After a while, I was already thinking of going home, a mixed but interesting signal sounded. In one bayonet, a shovel cut through the hard layer of earth and already in the ashes and dust of the old house, a small gray loop flashed ... Hands shook, emotions went off scale. “YES, THIS WAS MY FIRST DEGREE OF GEORGIAN CROSS, made of 999 silver, THE MOST REAL“. Joy knew no bounds ... this is not beach gold and not just antique objects, coins, this is a STORY OF THE UNKNOWN HERO ... now he has replenished my collection and I really hope that someday I will find relatives of the HERO and give them this value, THANKS.
Editor’s note: This Georgian Cross military medal was awarded between 1914-1917 during World War 1. The 4 at the bottom represents the class. It was produced with 99.9 percent silver.
