We scratched around for land today & after 3 hours 15 minutes, my only finds were a Jetton & Pistol Shot. Cru'dad had just 1 scrappy. Our worst day in as long as I care to remember...

If it wasn't for the tyre track King (Cru'Dad) doing just over 6 hours on the tyre tracks of a couple of Roman Sites, I would have very little to post. By not even swinging & just arm achingly holding the detector in front of him on the tracks he had 16 Roman Coins, Roman Ring Bezel & the circa 1800 King Dragoon Guards Button & bits...

I really enjoy seeing the English finds. So much potential in your neck of the woods!

Had a similar day on the "Random Field" yesterday. A bit roman pottery and roof tile in that corner of the field, but no success. At least you have one more field to cross off the list. Saves time for the better ones.

I like the Roman coins, even the unidentifiable ones. Cool jeton as well, Nuremburg 1600's?

That's not exactly what I would call a skunk. I've seen many days with far less in my pouch. At least you have some sites to hunt which is more than we can say around here.

Until the last 5 minutes of the hunt the only find I had was a lead ball, so yes
