I think this year should be named - the 'deep plough year.' As luck would have it they have done a 9 inch turn on this site. Its still an ankle breaker but due to competition on this farm, I wanted to cherry pick until its disced down. It was a solo 3.5 hour hunt. Cru'Dad was busy but as it happen's its a waste of time for his Cortes & too risky with his injuries. This ones on me.

20 Roman Bronze Coins, good news is the biggie, hopefully its thrown up a Silver.

I had to hide in a deep ditch when the thunder storms passed over.:laughing7:

Oh that's some great looking Romans Cru. I'd do ankle twisting deep plough any day of the week for those results. Congratulations on the crisp biggy.
 

Awesome is always a understatement in your case CRU.... fantastic hunt..
 

Glad you didn't turn your ankle. Just about died when I saw the lower left coin in the third picture. I found the same obverse, but a fallen horseman reverse in a tot lot several years ago.
 

CRUSADERVICTOR Thank you for sharing those wonderful finds with us. I especially enjoy looking at your Roman coin finds.
 

It never ceases to amaze me how some of those bronze surfaces / patinas hold up ! Better thany many a wheat cent I've dug .
 

Nice stuff. I guess a Biggie is wheres it's at with Roman coins.
 

OMG!! I'm speechless, well done congrats and HH
 

Killer old coin hunt, congratulations! :occasion14:
 

those dudes must have had some very bad bags for coins
 

Don't mean to sound like a broken record but you do find so many wonderful things that just blow me away and you do it consistently.
 

Great stuff as always. Congrats! [emoji106][emoji2]

It is when you have gridded the same site 3 times, it means its come up from depth.

Consistently is the key word. We make that word look easier than it should be, but I think you know by now this is not normal.
