We discovered this Roman Site only last year, we tried it in stubble condition but only had a couple of coins. Decided to retrurn when it was drilled. This was the only day we could do, because by next week the crop will be showing.
5 Hours (10 Man hours)
First time the XP has done its thing on this field, 32 Roman Bronzes (we only had 50 in the 4 days we did it last year).
2 Roman Bronze Pinheads
Roman Sawn head fittment
Roman Leather mount - circular
Broken Roman Brooch
Scrap Gold

I got a hammered twenty feet from the end on my last run, in the dark. Only hammered to come off this field :D Not pretty but it counts :icon_thumright:

A much better day & plenty of land to cover in the future.

By the by, WHAT is that reddish surface that your finds are always photographed on?

A general question of interest to me.........What do you eventually do with all of those exciting finds..........Keep them?...... Sell some?......Display them, although I suspect your wives might say something about that, :icon_scratch: unless you have got a study to keep them in. Hope you guys won't mind me asking.

Never sell anything (as a general rule). Farmers get some of it. Display some in the local Museum. Spare room with lots of sorted items in various trays & drawers. Coins in Albums depending on condition.

Great Hammered Crusader - Looks like you had a good day too.
How does Gold become scrap then? Surely even in olden times every gram of Gold was too precious to scrap - would like to know more.

Looks like both you and shaun had a great day. With the typical find tally that you guys get batteries can't last that long. I agree with shaun, that hammered looks ok to me and I would be very happy with any scrap gold. I am still trying to find where to unload my low alpha.
