This sunday hunt went slow with lots of trash, a few scrappy coins till my coil came over a big signal. 2 Reichsmark silver. Random loss i thought and detect ahead. A few steps the next turned up... :icon_scratch: I started gridding in both directions for the next two hours and more popped up. One bigger 3 Mark was a heavy hit in my earphones but it came better. 5 Mark nearly blows my ears off. 38mm diameter is the second biggest silver i ever dug. Looking at 2, 3 and 5 Mark silver only 1 Mark was missing in the collection but as last coin from this spill i went two steps higher and scored a 20 Goldmark. :hello2:
Another day in the field well spend! Enjoy!

Thanks all for the votes to bring this one on top! :occasion14: It is a good example to show that you never know what comes up next. Personally i am more a Relic Hunter, but this day i will remember a long time!

I thought the Roman Rein Guide might have made the Banner, considering the rarity of the find, but heh....your up there :headbang:

I agree, when you look for rarity the rein guide is high on the list, but coins still look better on the banner!

Holly molly, I didn't even get to vote. Man now that is a good hunt, love the gold, really love the big silver but together in one hunt it is off the charts.:hello2:
Congrats on an amazing hunt and getting the Banner nod (I still think your Roman Chariot pieces should be up there as well). I can't wait to see what you find next.:notworthy:

Digging such a big silver is amazing! One of these beat in weight nearly a whole year of the silvers i dig typically. Regardless of that silver spill, the roman eagle chariot piece is way more rare.
