I had time for a short hunt on a new field which has a celtic site on it. Not many finds, but i managed an old silver which first looked like a celtic coin. With a little help from Cru team we could track it down to a roman republic denarius of Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus 48BC. That is the Brutus who was one of Julius Caesar's assassins. Pretty cool find and my oldest roman silver so far! :hello2:
Not much else to mention, exept the second body armor plate in two weeks.

I forgot to say in the PM, you are ahead on Denarius against the Cru'team this year! Well done on a well deserved reward. We are still looking for our first Republic coin.

But not much Cru, it's just one Denar... :occasion14: But a Roman Republic is a bonus!
And special thanks to Crudad!!!
