If you follow Northern Mudlarks and Nicola White, you'll learn more about what your finding. That pipe is probably from the late 1600-early 1700's, the bottle is an ink bottle probably Victorian and those skeleton keys are highly sought after.

Some month ago I found my first intact pipe head, after nearly 30 years (OR MORE) ... in my country everything is forbidden, but, using your brains and your eyes is allowed...My oldest coin is from 1870 and I also found a marvelous, brand new musket ball sitting down on a new property we acquired an that I inspected. Your video is so simple, so accurate, it is perfect!

Fantastic video. These are awesome treasures you have found. I love the letter seal. As a teenager my cousin and i would write to our male friends that were in school at other cities. She taught me about these seals and we were able to purchase some in a card shop. Such a lovely detail on a piece mail. My last name starts with the letter K, what a coincidence . The token is also delightful and to think of the journey in history it took. I just love it all. Than you, thank you for sharing your treasures with us. 🦋🌼🇺🇸

Such an impressive collection of finds,especially considering that you are of midwestern USA origins!🤣 You developed that certain eye over the years,I am happily envious. Hmm,I wonder,your book “Mudlarks: Treasures From The Thames” was most likely off at the printers when this video was made! Funny,not long after I arrived back home from my first mudlarking adventure,I found out about formentioned book,and told my mother about it. I ordered it a day or so later,but unbeknownst to me,so did she,as a birthday gift in December 2022! I have 2 copies of your book. One for at home,and one that I keep in my car,to help explain to the Ohio folk what mudlarking is. They are never unimpressed.

I'm moving back to London soon and I can't wait to do my early morning walks along the Thames. I found a medieval ball lock once. It was about the size of a tennis ball with some damage which allowed you to see the mechanism inside. I also found a safe that had been cut open using an oxyacetylene welder, a statue of Ganesha (Hindu elephant god) about 60cm high, complete with ribbons and tinsel, nails, bottles etc. If you go to the Grand Union Canal you will also find a lot of coconuts floating in the water, particularly around Southall. Again, hindus put them in the water as an offering.

So amazing. If I found all this kind of stuff in the river in London I'd be so excited I'd wouldn't be able to contain myself. The creators of the series Detectorists need to do a follow up episode and take the Danebury Metal Detecting Club on a road trip to this area and check it out. Sheila could pack some of her special lemonade for the adventure to London. We just don't find this kind of cool stuff on the beaches here in Florida. I do have a collection of sea beans, cool shells with holes, children's plastic toys and barretts, and 15 plastic little kids shovels I've found in the surf at the end of the day that some kid left behind. Love the video!

I am also an American living in England, but in Suffolk nead Bury St. Edmunds. I have lived here altogether for about 46 years. I only realized mudlarking existed about 5 years ago and I envy the opportunity to do it on the Thames how exciting. I've seen videos of mudlarking all over Britain so maybe I'll look into it and try it up here. I loved all your finds and wish you the best. Mark
