My best finds for this season:two coins the Bosporan kingdom and the Golden Horde
This summer I had 3 weeks of vacation on the coast of the Black Sea, and my detector was with me. This region was a part of the Ancient Greek kingdom. In the city where I lived, some Ancient Greek constructions remained. Now it is a museum.
According to the announcement in the newspaper I bought the scooter and a shovel. Friends gave me district maps. One day I went on searches. On the bank of the lake where long ago there lived people there were many parts of the broken Ancient Greek ware. It is a good sign for excavation.

I found the split copper ring, two coins: copper antique "Dikhalk"

and silver "Aspr" times of the Golden Horde,

some modern coins, sleeves from cartridges, some edges of antique knifes and Russian ancient button in the form of the weight.

Here one more coin worthy admiration. In a money equivalent it not expensive. But she is expensive to me. It is an ancient Russian coin: "Denga" - 1731year. Feature this coin is that it well remained and has discrepancies of punching. Face and a reverse to twist concerning an axis on 15-20 degrees
