I saved up every cent this year to get me the Deus as a birthday present. I failed 2 months but the first hunt with the new machine was great tho. I did the adjacent field to a big roman site where we found signs of activity this spring. And we were not wrong!
Loads of trash as usual, lead shows that there ismore hidden. A couple modern coins, topped with a Prussian 1864 Silbergroschen. Buttons, lead seals, buckles, Swastika Ring...and the Romans were nice too. Part of a Knee Brooch, bottom of a Samian vine bowl with makers stamp, bronze pin of some sort. Only two coins but those are killer!
Silver Denarius of Augustus. AUGUSTUS DENARIUS, 27 BC-14 AD. AR Denarius (18mm, 3.92 g, 1h). Lugdunum (Lyon) mint. Struck 2 BC-AD 12. Laureate head right / Gaius and Lucius Caesars standing facing; shields and spears between; simpulum and lituus above.
And a rare Sestercius of Marc Aurel 161-180AD in top condition. Have to find an exact match...
My personal best find of the day is the head of a dog figurine with a ball in the catch.
