The Village Field - Day 6 - 5 Hammered - Last Chance...

[CRUSADER]

This was our last day on the Pea's, so our objective was to fill the gap between Day 5 Grid & Day 1 Grid. It nearly killed me but we finished it in 7.5 hrs, felt more like 10 with the speed I was going & the large amount of digs.
Puts us in a good position to know where to start after harvest.

What a haul. Must be a old village site

A great finish for the field, bagging 130 targets, many great looking keepers.
It will certainly be a field near the top of the list for a post harvest return.
Is this a worked field or a no-till?

Just not enough words- simply awesome!!

Holy Smokes Crus .. you were on 🔥 fire 🔥 today! Well done!

 

[scruggs]

Amazing what treasures the old field still holds, and all it's gave up. Thanks Crusader for bringing everything to light! It's been a task Well done!

 

[jewelerguy]

incredible site you've got there. Can't wait to see what you find when you're able to get back on it

 

[Gare]

Crusader your posts are AMAZING !!! Thank you for posting them for us !!

 

[CRUSADER]

Is this a worked field or a no-till?

It was once grass & is now cultivated. Probably minimal deep ploughing.

Yes, it will be at the top of our list after harvest. We are not used to Pea's, so no idea when & whether the stalks are detectable straight away. But we will keep an eye out.

 

[mindcrime1988]

Another great haul of goodies. One of these days I hope to find a seal matrix.

Probably better than beans for stubble height, though there might be more chaff rows to deal with.

This was what our pea field looked like after harvest last year… we were on ours in July… obvs it maybe different where u are! xx

Field of freekin dreams.
Not counting the hammered coins of course, you got a couple of things in one hunt I've never got, the linked silver cuff links, and a seal matrix.
WHAT A PILE. Must take you awhile to clean it all up at the end of the day.
Do you just throw the common buttons, (and coins, more modern coppers) into buckets ? I've picked out a lot 'stuff' and put baggies / boxes myself. Plain buttons as well.

 

[E-Trac-Ohio]

Congrats on all the FANTASTIC finds !

What takes the most time is cleaning the lead ready for recycling.
All plain & 4 holed buttons go into big tubs.
All blank Georgian coppers go into a bin, & will be recycled one day.
