Very nice find, appears to have been bent into a love token! HH, Mike
 

Awsome finds! Even in the coins condition, it's still better the one most of us have!!! I would be hitting that spot again for sure.

Yeah - I'm hoping to get back hitting the same spot in a few days time - got the farmer's name for the owner of the adjacent fields too so hopefully I can extend that area.

Definately a Love Token. The most popular coin used was a William III Sixpence.

The Livery has more than the normal coating, I like finding these :thumbsup:

Your improving all the time, soon your posted your first hammered & roman coin.
 

Nice love token David :thumbsup:.....just a bit of info on it, the giver bent it one way, and if the reciever excepted the courtship, he or she bent it the outher way, good find :thumbsup:
 

Some great finds David. Thanks for sharing them with us.

I also must tell you that I am very impressed with your music work.

Thanks Mister! But since I've started Metal Detecting I've found I'd rather be out in the field than in the studio - Its addictive isn't it - a pleasant, relaxing addiction but I'm well and truly hooked!
