Incredible fortune. 2nd Gold coin this week!

[Urien of Rheged]

So having found an 1863 Gold Queen Victoria sovereign on Thursday afternoon, I dont like going straight back to a permission ive had good luck on as the return visits always turn out to be duds, and so I headed off to a different location here in Lancashire England some 12 miles away and with good Roman form.
I was finding lots of stuff on a pasture field close to a river, a couple of spindle whorls, buttons, buckles, crusty old coins, a couple of musket balls. I was really enjoying the session, a busy field but not one to be bored in.
As th3 light began to fade I dug a clear signal at 3 bars down on the equinox, lifted up the clod and just sat there in the hole was this 1821 George IV sovereign.

I think I'm still in shock to be fair. 2 gold coins from 2 outings in one week at different locales.
The.metal detecting God's are obviously smiling down on me right now.
What an incredible hobby this is.

Id be reluctant to say if I did, I reckon id be a suspected attention seeker troll with another.
But it isn't for a lack of trying though 😂
Its a fantastic area though, best permission ive ever been to and the beauty is im onky on the pasture right now, by October the ploughed land will be freed up. I cannot wait.
I've been back now twice since Sunday and have just been finding coin after coin, mainly early late 19th early 20th century 5 silvers though including 3 hammered. One I just found tonight havent taken a pic yet but its not great, Elizabeth I though I'm pretty certain so the later half of the 16th century.
Hunting around the golden spot I found a decent sized James I sixpence (1604) a big fat but a bit worse for wear George V half crown a tiny but good condition George V 3 pence a tiny hammered rose and crown James I half groat.
I found an old hammered copper jetton but it's badly worn and is currently in ketchup, intonan photo of it with the rose and crown but it's ineligible.
