while out nr my town, visited a field known for roman coin finds in 1800s, walked out onto a vast field, and decided to walk in a straight line from one corner of the gate, id entered to the tree & gate in the other corner....upon walking, lots of old broken pipe tubes were everywhere, odd roman black glazed pottery, odd glass work (from making glass wear), lots of iron deposits from kilns, the odd bit of metal deposits, then 1" below the surface...... a 1644 siege coin, minted at the worcester mint ( 1643 to 1644 ), during King Charles 1 reign, it has the three pears on the crest on the rear.....a return trip i think is nessassary....as it tipped it down with rain, and i only spent 3/4 hr on the field....but im very pleased as its my first siege coin , value ?, others from the worcester mint vary from £650 to £2,800 VF.....
its location is nr the 1651 battlefield
