🥇 BANNER 1586 Elizabeth I Hammered Sixpence

[toasted]

Still in disbelief right now after tonights hunt at my best site for early stuff. Accomplished two things I never really thought I had much chance of doing. A hammered English silver and a 16th century one at that It also appears to have been bent like what they call love tokens over in England. Thanks for looking and so glad I could share my excitement with everyone

If only these coins could talk. What a journey this coin must have taken. A clipper ship and a new world.

You took the words right out of my mouth bud... "If only these coins could talk", just imagine the stories it could tell us of it's journey through time.

Congratulations on achieving your forth BANNER on Tnet toasted!

My buddy dug this Elizabeth I half Groat while we were detecting a site in Cape May New Jersey a few years back. Sorry the photos are upside down!

Yours is definitely one of a handful dug here on these shores. It's definitely more banner worthy than his! Congratulations!

May I ask what county in MD? (PM Me if you don't want to share publicly!)

I found a Spanish bronze from earlier in the 1500’s on LI. If only these old ones can talk! Great find you got there.
