An 1800 year old Lady came to say goodbye 2019

[Westfront]

We went out for a probably last hunt of 2019 today. When detecting the field on one side of a small creek we often looked at the slope on the other side with a cropmark coming from what we call pebble head. (Pebbles coming up on top on a small spot) After having a bust on our villa we decided to jump over and check it out. We have permission there for years, but never tried....
My buddy started going uphill, i went along the creek. Coming closer to the pebbles roman pottery and roof tile frags showed up. I made a turn up to the pebble area and found big foundation stones, bricks and roof tiles laying fresh ploughed up.

Big bricks with lime mortar sticking

Between lead and nails the first coins...

With little time to spend i squeezed out three coins

The smallest and the biggest coin rome minted in one hunt!

Two roman whatzzits and part of a neolithic flint blade

Other finds, today without pics of the trash.

Thanks for looking!

Really nice coins. Do you plan on sifting that site? There’s no telling what is in that house site area.

As it's fresh ploughed up the location is reported to the archies. It will be GPSed and i detect there more. If there are significant finds an excavation is possible. Most likely it's a site like hundreds others with no special interest by the archies.

So sorry for you.... Looks like you have to stay with the 18 year old ones. Don't let your wifey know....

Really hope so! It's a huge field along the creek with signs of ancient occupation all over.
