See picture 1 of the first game strip we did, it was a near blank with just 3 plain buttons & 1 very scrappy Roman Coin.
We were 3/4's of the way through the last game strip on the new farm & we were glad to see the Livery Button come out :P Thankfully the next couple of runs I had a nice Roman Follis & a hammered - pity its in poor condition as its a Durham mint of Edward IV :(

Being the :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: ..est day this year & digging 4 hours with mostly rubbish was just about saved in the last 30 minutes :icon_thumright:

Hey Cru:

A near skunk doesn't count, but it does make you sweat till that first one comes out. WTG

As we say 'the system paid'. Half-way through covering the last area we had nothing. We could have easily, said that this field is pointless. But we always cover an area from corner to corner, because if its as bad as the two we did, we will cross them off the list & never return. We were both glad that we stuck to the system when the Roman & hammered came out from the blue.

It's virtually impossible to get skunked in the UK. Your country is stuffed with goodies. Come for a holiday to Western Australia or NZ and don't forget to take your beeper with you ;D. You will soon learn the meaning of 'getting skunked'. Today I was happy to find a shilling of 1891 when my battery was almost flat. Then some teens came up to me to talk about detecting (they have some experience in beach-hunting). I was so tired that I muttered something not quite intelligible in reply to their question. And guess what. 'Are you English?' they ask me ;D
