I have been working all week & resting in the evenings to recover from last week.
We were not really going to bother with this field this year, as it was not deep ploughed & only tickled.
However, as it was early drilled with oil seed rape & perfectly flat we decided to try it. Problem was the farmer wanted us on today only (worried about the crop), so we respected his wishes & detected 3.5 hours until it was dark.
We did far better than I expected. I had put the 11" coil on to pull a few deeper finds. It still managed to find some really small hammered (3 to me, 1 to Dad). Although he got the nice Georgian Seal Matrix.
4 Scrappy Roman Coins
2 Rose Farthings
17th C token
Commonwealth Halfgroat circa 1650s

Hammered Farthing & a poor hammered
A very good session. Looking forward to tomorrow on our 2nd Fav.
