This huge field is about the last one with failed crop. Dad said yesterday that we should do the small corner piece at the bottom of the hill, I said I wanted to go to the top. In the morning I had changed my mind & I had decided to cover this small 1/2 acre piece which was very trashy but I hoped for a nice button or capbadge. Imagine my surprise when after 50 minutes of trash digging out popped a Goldie.:icon_thumright: My second this year... Someone must have trown it out with the trash!
We then started on the top of the hill after finishing the small area - we both did 4 hours.

5 Scrappies
4 Lead Tokens
1807 Penny
1721 Halfpenny
18th C Halfpenny Token
Medieval Buckles
Medieval Coin Weight
Seal Fob - missing the stone
Livery Button
Section of a Roman Bracelet
My first Eleborate 14th C Strap-end for a Sword Belt:icon_thumright:

Do I ever have a bad day?:icon_scratch: You will all be the first to know.:laughing7:

Well done, your XP really is a gold maxumizer isn't it. You have also scored big on the other finds too.:hello2:
Lets say BANNER again on the gold just because I don't like the number 17.

Unless I've had too may pints tonight, the date in your pic looks like "18E3" to me...was it damaged?? :dontknow: Looks like that coin has seen a bit of circulation...what year were they in circulation until in the UK? Nice Victoria gold!

If you put in the time (which you're obviously doing), you're eventually gonna strike gold. Always nice to pull a good one out of a trashy area. Nice going Cru!!
