Detector(s) used
XP Deus II v0.6 with 11" Coil
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
This is why I took most of my holiday this week. Who needs sun,sea & sand (apart from beach detectorist ;)) Hit the right field at the right time :)

I have just got back from this mornings hunt & had to share, the rest I will post after the PM hunt.

Its my earliest, best, most valuable Gold coin so far & doubles my Dad's Qrter Noble ;D

I AM PUMPED - I thought this year may produce a gold but was beginning to lose faith.

UPDATED

(to keep everyone happy)
Dutch coin of EDWARD III period
Cica 1351 - 1352
HALF NOBLE

3.32gms of 21-22 Cwt Gold.
These are so rare, I don't have the proper books to id (nor did the experts I spoke to). I am not worried about a full Dutch Provence id. Dutch is good enough :) However if you know, I will be happy to hear?
Valued at auction £300-400 + but depends on full ID

It was badly bent by the plough & I carefully unfolded it (I don't recommend this). Its chewed up abit but at least its all there!

FIND OF A LIFETIME.

Great find crusader!! I'd love one of those. I'll be in colchester next friday for two weeks. that would make the trip!!!!!!!!

I also agree with you the land owner should get to see every item dug from his field. Unless your paying for the right to detect and keep no questions asked. But I don't personally know any landowners that would go for that.

keep up the great finds and may your increadible luck/skill continue.

With the history you have there I would be hard pressed to get to a beach, I would be too busy searching the fields just like you are. I love history, the chance to find artifacts that old is a dream to me.

Fantastic Find Crusader!

:o :oSUPACALAFRAGALISTICASPEALADOSIOUS (or something like that)!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man you hit the JACKPOT JACKPOT JACKPOT!! That is definitely a BANNER buddy! That is one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL THINGS that I have EVER laid eyes upon!!! I am feeling as if I am living up to that slogan "The Yellow Metal that makes the White Man crazy!" because I definitely am crazy about that find Bud. That is a blessing that the plow bent it back instead of breaking it-its always good to see the upside in every situation ;D- BEYOND great find bud :o
 

Re: DAY 7 - GOLD HAMMERED - $%+@:?_!!~#
