Hi all....did a double search this weekend and it turned out to be a remarkable few days, so straight in with the finds, Fist signal of the day and out pops one of the best hammered I have ever found, :icon_king: Edward1 1272-1307 Archbishop Mint York, reverce quarter foil in centre, not two yards away and out comes another one Edward1 Bury Mint, reverce Villa sci Edmundi, not a bad 15 minutes. Things went quite for a while and then the next find a nice Horse Harness Pendant dating to the Medieval period with traces of guilding still visible, moving over to the Villa area there was a mix of Roman Bronze coins in the usuall condition before a nice Roman Silver of Septimus Severus AD193-211 popped out, Laureate Head Right/ reverce two captives seated at foot of trophy and that was Saturday. Sunday saw us back on the same field after lunch the first find turned out to be a brocken Silver Roman ring proberbly for a child, a cut hammered of King:John 1199-1216 then another Roman Silver of Faustina Jr, Draped bust right/ reverce Pudicita Standing Left Tugging at her Toga, then a broken Silver Denarius not quite sure who of will try to get more info, the Roman finds kept coming a broken head stud brooch and part of a horse fitting, an amazing weekend :thumbsup:

0 silver for me at the weekend with about 10 hours searching. :P

Thats detecting for you.

I said you wouldn't need luck on that field :-*

I just wish we could find one like that on our new land, probably takes us 2 years.

Why aren't you doing it during the week?

Well done! As far as the broken Roman coin goes, since you have excellent photos of your finds,
I read "Geta" with the Victoria reverse. A lot of history there. The Severans spent a lot of time in Britain attempting to tame the land for Rome.

Dude, you are out of control! It has been a long time since I have seen a few hunts produce so many awesome finds by anyone. That Edward hammered is in beautiful condition, so are the rest of the finds! Congrats and thanks for sharing a great weekend with us. HH, Mike

Great hunt!
