The Village Field - Day 4 - 9 Hammered!

[CRUSADER]

Nice weather today & although we didn't plan a longer session we ended up doing 6.5 hrs of gridding to finish off a section, in case this is our last hunt. Not sure if the crop will be too mature on Saturday, but we will take a look & make the call.
Still a mystery as to what was going on in this field for hundreds of years. Every outing we fill a tub up with lead & many of it is various sizes of rolled up stuff. Mainly pretty small & we have no idea why. We are also getting more than the usual Tubular Lead Weights. (See todays haul!) Some of these can be Roman but most of these are Medieval/Tudor.
As we are covering a huge grid, I was moving pretty quick & digging evener quicker, dug plenty of holes today...

More GREAT finds - your killing it - keep up the good work !

Another great group of hammered silver. Surprising that more of those are not bent up from plow strikes.
