Cru'Teams Gold Coin Collection...

This is Cru'Dad & I's total collection of gold coins. Roughly speaking I found 70% of them. I still remember as a kid when I joined this great hobby & all I wanted to find was just 1 Celtic Gold. However, it took at least 20 years to get my first, but everyone is a golden memory!
One such memory is the 1777 Guinea that Cru'Dad found. He went on a short weekend caravanning holiday & decided to take along the detector. On arriving he asked the owner if he could have a quick go around his land & the OK was given. After a couple of hours of digging the usual junk he got 1 last signal before it was too dark to see. With very little enthusiasm he dug what he knew would be another piece of junk, only to be faced with that little beauty. The landowner was more than surprised/grateful when Cru'dad showed him & offered him more cash to keep it, than they had spent on the weekend pitch....lol
UPDATE:
Just added this one!

Quite impressive. I think of how excited I was at finding my first gold ring. Even one of these old coins would be the find of a lifetime for most of us. Thanks for sharing your amazing collection!

I must admit that finds like that make all of the tea and crumpet business worth it.

Plenty of Tea, not so much of the crumpet. Although sexist people call women Crumpets? Is that what you meant?

Cru,

The only more extensive group of gold coin finds I recall seeing was found by a detectorist in the Northwestern US....I believe I might have a picture on my PC if I can find it I'll pm it to you.

Regards + HH

If you find the pic, how 'bout you share it with all of us? I can't imagine a better collection than the one Cru has just shared! I'm sittin' here flabbergasted, bumfuzzled, mousebound, and jigganeezed!
