This hunt started yesterday in my head & it gave me butterflies thinking about it, I just knew I was going to have a good day & when they gave out the weather report which was perfect, the game was on.
7 days ago I commented on my 'Day 6' post that this field should produce a Celtic Gold, as we had had 4 bronze & 1 silver. In fact Cru'dad got real lucky & actually predicted it before our hunt, in our usual game of 'guess the result/closest wins'. Even though I had a good feeling I wasn't going to roll the dice on today being it! (should have done though!)
The Gold fell to me (my 3rd this year!) & was just before the 1st hour. It was not far off where Land-Mag had being loosely gridding whilst we were where in scout mode. Near the big dip on the high ground near the corner.
5 Hours:
19 Roman Bronze Coins
Jetton
Roman Fibula
Roman Pin
17th C Spur Buckle
Tudor Book Clasp
Henry III Hammered Cut Halfpenny
Charles I Halfgroat made into a Love Token (rare to get a hammered version!)
VERY RARE - Celtic Gold Quarter Stater of Tasciovanus 25-20 BC
The sticky mud made it feel like 8 hours! (well worth the effort though)
