It's all the same

Funny hobby metal detecting. One minute your in beautiful surroundings, searching for ancient coins and artifacts. The next your in modern surroundings, searching a grass field, that's basically a dog toilet. The buzz though is still the same. These are the coins from two short sessions on a grass field near to home. Nothing older than Victorian, three silvers, the cleaned one being a 1917 shilling. Hoping for some jewelry from this patch. May have another session, late this afternoon, wearing rubber gloves :laughing7:.

LOL, I would have thought if you were hunting on the moon you would have managed at least one hammered! Nice finds. I'm assuming the other two are a 6 and a 3?

It is a wild ride and that's the beauty of it. Highs and lows. But the highs make it sooooooo worth it

Just seen the spoons Ahab, only ever had broken ones that age. Spurred on by your pictures (and a few pints), I'm going out to hunt, 20 mins walk to the field, it's now 18.55 so should get a couple of hours.:thumbsup:

Still three modern silvers beats no silver, it's a producer and you may get a few half crowns and something gold to boot. Now what's nice about your dirt is anything can show up anywhere best of luck on a oldie.
