Last Chance Field No.1....

[CRUSADER]

We found last week that we still have 2 ploughed field options & both are workable. It seems these hilly spots have suffered from drying out & the grass & weeds look sun burnt. I wish we would get some rain though as the ground is solid!
No silver this time but we are happy with our 5 hours gridding as we can see some potential for a hammered in the future.
We spotted some night hawk diggings but I'm not worried about them as they missed plenty.

Nice 18th C Pewter 'Rose' Button
4 Jettons
5 Roman Coins (1 nice holed one) + one extremely rare one!
Tudor Strap-end
Spec Buckle & 17th C Spur Buckle
Medieval Thimble
Roman Plate Brooch
1st C AD Roman Ring Bezel
Our first Heart shaped 18th C Cuff-link

We were trying to ID the bottom right Roman Coin & we knew it was a rare Carausius but I just realised its probably the 3rd know example of this coin. See the 2nd one that I found at the above link. However, I believe its an imitation but the British Museum will confirm this later!

Update;

It may not be the exact coin but it will be extremely rare & we will email the BM before we drop them off at our next visit.

I have a good library & Cru'dad has a Library of Roman Coin books. However, this is not in any of them & had I not realised Cru'dad would have spent hours researching this one! I don't really use the internet very often to ID my finds, its in my head. (mostly)

Amazing Finds, Congrats! If you need some rain there, do what I do, I wash my car! Always works. We just paid a company to wash our windows and it started to rain before they left. Only waxed my car once, never again, it got hailed on!

Very good, but in my case I better get the bicycle out.

Display them yes, keep them safe, no.
