[mihmar79]

on my 4th hunt i find some old coin , think its old silver turkey coin is it or ?

find in pannonia

UPDATE: 07.02.2014.
just arived scale from ebay: so i have numbers for my hoard of silver coins i found on "medieval silver forest path"

"medieval silver forest path"



hoard


weight of hoard (16,38g)


UPDATE 19.2.2014
Road keep giving silvers (1 more/25 total )
Today plan was to chek another path in same forest, but to get on that path i needed to go over my dear silver road, and i say to myself if there is 24 silvers, there must be atleast one more and there was 1 more ! ... after some time hunting nothing shows up so i moved on secund path as the plan was.

On secund path i found 1938 prety nice coin, i see that one first time so for moment i thought its gold one, unfortunatly its not but still nice one, atleast for me . thanks for watch and read! (photo on page 6)
yeah btw, i manage to get some ID on some of those silvers: 7 are sultan Suleyman I “the Magnificent” (reign 30 Sep, 1520 – 7 Sep, 1566) mint in (Novaberde, Kayseriye, Novar, Sidrekapsi, Kratova) 1 is Sultan Selim I "the Grim" (reign 1512–1520)

Wow, your on a roll. Is it all from the same small area? ie. a split hoard?

I mean - is it part of a collection of coins that were buried & then split up by the plough?

 

[Westfront]

WoW! You're really on your way to a hoard! You need to mark every place a coin was found to find the spot where the coin are buried. As the site looks not like farmland coins work their way down when there is a decline. Then you have to detect further up. Wish you luck!

hm i dont know either, but they are not in farmfland , they are in forest, but on the forest path, hm maybe some tractor that passing throu the forest "throw" them around ,

This must be from a hoard or maybe a small purse drop?

Are they deep? Is there a pattern forming? Keep looking, there maybe ALOT more.

yeah it must be something from that, i just hear story that one guy around here before 30 years acidently find in field behind tractor that plowing bag of them , and after he found them, he founds a hobby to

not so deep, usualy they are only few (2-3) cm deep, depest was on 10 - 15 cm deep.

If you can borrow or get a deeper machine, it might be worth it.

You are onto something really good there! Take your time and look for some sort of pattern that may lead you to the origin of the hoard or drop. Great job on finding those old coins. Hope you find many more

that was on my mind today on spot, about deeper things in ground becoze i dont know how deep this machine can detect them, becoze of their very small size... but better machine need to wait a bit, becoze this one i have for about 2 weeks

thanks! yeah ill trying to get to some idea about origin, i think that place was some old road, on which some1 lose bag of coins, but that are only my guesing

Could be, as the leather bags of coins in this period were hooked/tied to the belt. If you were going quickly on horse back, it may fall off & you may never know until its too late. People of this wealth were very likely to own a horse.

sounds resonable to me , yeah btw i found some horseshoe near, and only that shoe seems to me that can be same time as coins, nothing else that i found have no conection with coins :O, so i wondering that horseshoe can it be so old as coins, i make it complicated ... my question is, when horses start to gets horseshoes?
