Dad & I only had 2.5 hours spare, so we stayed on our doorstep. This field has produces lots of Roman Coins & Medieval stuff over the past 10 years or so. The field will soon become a housing estate & we helped the Archies do a dig before this happened. I remember finding more in 2 hours than the team did in 3 days! We also handed over our GPS Maps of the finds to help their report.

Therefore everything we save counts...

This farmer is not keen on use detecting the young Wheat, so all we could do was the tyre tracks, good result considering!

7 Scrappies (Dad is recording their details at home, picture to follow)
2 Hammered Silver Coins - 1 Charles I Penny & the other unknown:headbang: - This nearly doubles this years total in 2.5 hours...
Tudor Clothes Fastener
Tudor Belt Decor
Rare copper plugged tinned W&M Farthing
Tudor acorn terminal strapend
Tudor Dagger Chape
Lead Token
Lead Medieval Button
Buttons & bits...

An enjoyable warm:sunny: day out.

The thimble looks like it has a few more years of use left in it ;) Nice finds! I love it finding stuff that can be put to good use. Same concept as driving an antique hotrod, rather than an electric car.

I wear a Roman Ring:thumbsup: It might have another 2000 years left.
