Romans and Swastikas
Field hunting is out of sight so i followed the invitation from a buddy. He has a nice place on hand, roman and medieval, mixed with WWII... Unfortunately the soil was so dry and the old coin are laying deep there. We were not very successful. Only two scrappy romans, a 10 Pfennig coin and a Deutsche ArbeiterFront (German Laborers) pin. Here are the pics. Wheatie for size reference.

Not much good things left...exept the ammo! Ground is so hard, i use an ice pick in these area. Works fine in the stony ground.

Thanks! It was a long day but worth it. I will be back at it this next weekend for the last time in NC. I should pop back up again back in Utah sometime in July.

Strip Mining Northern California, One Silver Coin at a time...
How awesome it must be to hunt in Germany! My very first metal detecting adventure was in the city of Erlangen Germany back in 1977. You must have some very cool finds over there!

I've spent a good deal of my life reading WW2 history. I'll bet it is a thrill to dig those historical artifacts over there.
