Tried hard to find a Medieval hammered but failed ::)

First picture is buttons from both fields.

2nd picture is the AM hunt - 1846 Shilling, blank silver coin, Roman Key handle, 6 scrappies.

3rd & 4th picture is PM hunt on a different field - Clothes fastener, possible piece of roman silver coin, nice lead cloth seal.

I found a RARE Celtic Silver Unit of Cunobelin AD20 (picked it off the surface). Dad had this type last year & it was recorded as the 27th, the below site now says thats theres about 30 recorded. ;D

Mine must be a £150 coin :)

Welcome to Tnet. Whats it like to detect in your country?

Maybe, only due to rarity rather than value. However, I've had my fair share & I'm hoping this year to make the banner with something even more special. :wink: My confidence with my XP is at an all time high. We didn't reach this many Roman coins (100) until Aug of last year & at this rate my hammered count will beat last years by the middle of the year! Bring on the Harvest & the good fields, I'm ready to hoover :thumbsup:
