Hi All......today turned out to be the best days detecting so far this year, went back to one of my favourite Fields and was met with a glorious sight :o ploughed and rolled :thumbsup: this is the Field that produced the Celtic Brooch that made the banner, it's also given up Roman Brooches and coins, and Silver hammered :o parts of the field can be very queit and it was on this part that the first coin came up a half groat of :icon_king:Edward111 as you can imagine I was thrilled to bits but as I walked forward a couple of steps I picked up a faint but positive signal I dug down and out popped two not one but two Groats again :icon_king:Edward111 now my hart was racing and I new I was on a hoard or purse spill :o what seemed like an age but was probably only a couple of minutes went by and another half groat with a fresh piece missing from the top made an appearance (I later found the missing piece) I went on to recover four more groats and one outher half groat, there is a good chance of more coming of especially when the ground settles down a bit more :thumbsup: any way hear's the pictures TK :thumbsup:

She does look like a goat. Probably lost by a rich noble running for his life, not wanting to support that bugger. He was a deviate like a certain president we had.

My, God--that's unbelievable.

This is a Banner Post--but I'm waiting for you to add the photos of the rest of the hoard so that we get a group shot of the coins before I recommend your post. :wink:

Hi BB.....the coins shown in the group photo are what come from the ground today, ill hazard a guess and say that a few more might show up this season but this spot could keep producing the odd coin for years to come :thumbsup:

Other than the obivious Banner statement (which this surely is!), all I can say is:
'It must be a dream come true'

I don't think I even own 1 groat, let along a hand full :o :o :o :o :o

I would have been happy with just one of those.

I can't see the BM wanting those (might be wrong), but I hope you get to keep them.
