Did too many hours on my current No.1 field. Tried to keep up with the tractor harvesting potatoes. :laughing7:
Half of the field is done, dug 151(!) brass targets today and missed to shoot a pic before i threw all into the scrap metal box....:tongue3:
Got some roman scrappies( Sestercius, As, Follies and a debased Denarius), roman spindle whorl, a few buttons, pendant, 1655 punched silver coin, 1840 1 Silbergroschen, 1924 1 Mark silver. 4 silvers over a time span of 1700 years is cool! Only medieval silver is missing on the list...

Thanks all! :occasion14:

About time for some gold isn't it Lu? Glad to see you're still finding silver. Nice finds.

Hi Tim, waiting for harvest on the gold coin field!


Congratulations!!! That site will probably produce a lot more.:thumbsup:

I hope so, buddy! A deep plow would help too!


What a beautiful horse figure... Looks like a keeper even without the riders head!!

Head is there! Even with the feathers on the helmet. His head just snapped back when his horse speeds up! It's the most complete Horse/Rider figure i dug until now.


Good haul :thumbsup: should be a few more waiting when all the spuds come out.

We need some rain. First half of the field was perfect rolled by tractor and machine, then he drove another pattern and left 6" high rows between the tires. A little rain would help to flatten them out.
