When passion rules the game!

[vince76]

On Google maps, my new site was about three hours by car so I left home at 2.00 this morning. But Google was wrong and I was there at 4.00. I could stay in the car and wait but I think you already know what I did. Using the car lights I began searching for some lost stuff. The first hole produced this broken seal ring.

I tried it but I'm not brave enough


Some nice Macedonian coins followed until my first Tetradrachm came out.


Alexander III. 323-313 BC. AR Drachm. Lampsakos mint. Head of Herakles right, wearing lionskin headdress / AΛEXANΔΡOY,, Zeus seated left, right leg drawn back, holding eagle and sceptre; Artemis left with torch beneath chair. Price 1379 var (no symbol in left field). Unpublished var without 'belt-buckle' symbol in left field. CNG 725215.

This was the very first time in my life kissing a coin

It was almost dawn when it began raining but I didn't stop and found two or three other coins and a lot of lead stuff.
After less than one hour I had two muddy shoes weighting 2kg each that's why I decided to leave that area and head to another one. The rain stoped because it began snowing and it was windy too. The area was already painted in white. I was freezing but I didn't want to turn home. A Roman coin as the first and after that this beautiful silver coin jumped out of the hole. No ID yet.
This was the hardest day but with two great silvers I was happy to turn back home.




This is the rest







Driving back home


Thanks guys for watching.

There are also pull tabs, bottle caps, modern bullets etc but I'm not going to post them anymore because the last time I had a banner they chose the worst pic
This is how they look after cleaning the smallest pieces.
