:hello:all

I have been very lucky over the years to find some wonderfull things while detecting :o recently I found my first Gold coin and a very old one at that :headbang:

days like these obviously stick in the memory and from time to time I like to reflect on such days :)

Today I went back to the field that produced the Medieval Gold Stirrup ring last year(still at the BM ::)) anyway while walking along a ridge, I made another amazing find :o this time I didn't need the detector :P it was a Tanged and Barbed Flint Arrowhead lying just on the top of the soil, the date range is 2500-1500BC :o

I also managed a few Medieval Silver coins, one a nice Henry111 :-* here are the pictures :thumbsup:

wow :o ...congratulations my friend :thumbsup: :notworthy:
 

That's an outstanding day!! WTG!!
 

Wow, great finds! It's amazing how the production of quartz points seems to have evolved independently on both our countinents.

When I found it, I started thinking about the person who had lost it, what was he hunting, the time he must of took to notch out the shape :o just truly fascinating :o

I think i've either put it somewhere "safe" or it was a victim of housework!

I should have put it away :-\ :'(

I've detected the contents of the hoover so i know it's not there!

Could just be something to do with turning 40 :laughing7:

I've drove myself mad looking for it! Even now i'm looking around :'(

It was the first hammered i found localy to me and only my 7th :(

Oh well, i've still got the avatar to remind me :'(
 

SS,
great set of finds as usual. I really love the arrow head, and I agree with you, when you find something like that you do wonder about the maker and how was it lost. Was it dropped or did the target get away and die later. I know I will get some stick for this next question (pipe tamper et al) but did you id the other hammered?.
Changing the subject a little, but i just can't make it for the rally. I have got my son for the weekend and I can't give that up, I am going to introduce him to metal detecting with an Ace 250 on a previously undetected field (only 3 acres) he is 6 in November and big for his age, but I wish you and the guys all the best. Find the best and make us proud.
