Hi guys!
I hope everyone is doing great.
Lately I decided to add to my Deus the X35 13inch coil and the HF elliptical one. The idea was to find more deep targets and also the tiny silver coins.
Yesterday, I had the flight at 15.20. At 4.30 I was already fully awake. First I thought it was silly but then I jumped on the car and headed to a new site where I have been only twice.
On my way up I decided to use the X35. Reactivity 0, disc - 6.4, 11khz, slow motion and I could find some deeper targets. Amongst them three silver coins too.
When I was on the top of the hill it was already 10 o'clock. I attached the HF coil, Deus hot, sens 97 and made my way down. I was already half way down and I hadn't found any special stuff but 4-5 silver Coins. It was the first time using it and it was not so easy getting used with the sounds.
It was a new sound for me and I prepared the spade but it was right in the surface. First I thought it was a joke. An ancient gold earring on my hand. Crazy. It happened so quickly that I forgot to turn on the camera.
It's an Illyrian gold earring, 400-300 BC. Probably it had a black stone in it and it was broken. P_20180924_102841_1.jpg

This has been my luckiest day. I found the earring and I didn't loose my flight.
Sorry guys, I have to go. Babies are calling.:laughing9:

THAT is AWESOME! Congrats my friend! I'm willing to bet we haven't seen many of those here on TNet so I'm thinking it needs to be up top on the banner! You have my vote!
 

Are you kidding me, why isn’t this on the banner yet?
 

Wow that is a banner find for sure! Beautiful!
 

Looks like a helmet on a cornucopia. Maybe Alexander the Great wore it?

I can't immagine Alexander with a earring like that. Can you imagine him killing someone and then he realises that he has lost the earring. Oh my gosh, I lost the earring. It was a gift from my mother.:laughing9:
 

Yet another wonderful find Vince! :occasion14:

I'm not sure if I'm remembering correctly, but do you have a set of baby girl triplets? If so it's remarkable that you can ever find the time to hunt for treasures, it's hard enough for me and I just have one! :laughing7:

I'm sure that they aren't as special as the Illyrian earring, but if you are in a position to show pictures of the silver coins and other stuff you found it would be very interesting to see. I'm glad that you're still swinging, I was starting to miss you and worried you stopped detecting!
 

Thanks buddy! Yes, you're right but in the meantime we had the forth baby. :laughing7: That's why I stopped hunting. :dontknow:
I didn't post all the finds because I was in a hurry and honestly I thought if it would be a banner find, they have only two choices for the pictures. :tongue3:
I will open a new thread with the other finds.
Sorry for making you worry but you know it, with the babies time flies by.
:icon_thumright:

Simply breathtaking. Banner material without a doubt.
 

BAN-ner!
BAN-ner!
BAN-ner!
 

So Special, this ear ring is! Look at the WORK it took, to produce this golden piece of art...! Wow!
Banner, for sure!
 

That’s totally amazing!! Maybe the stone is still in the dirt. You could go back with a sifter and go through the dirt.
 

A big 'Thank you' to all of you. It's great that I found it and is a great pleasure to have it amongst the other banners on Tnet. :notworthy:
 

Here is the rest of the finds on the same day and the day before in the same area.
