I didn't do so well today.....no hammered :(

It was the worst conditions I have ever detected in, I could barely lift my feet or my spade :o I was only digging the good signals because the Wheat is well showing.

Got a good few buttons, a nice lead token and my smallest buckle yet!
Another 17th c token(completely blank) and one and a half Rose Farthings...I think :icon_scratch:

Also got a strange pewter token/coin!

Last one looks like a tin & copper plugged farthing - very rare - look at the William & Mary type in your book :o

1.5 rose farthings & lots of encouraging signs

Stick at it, it will pay off better next time :icon_thumright:

It looks like it could be a medal or something, too thick for a coin :-\

Yes plenty of good signs, there's good stuff there I'm sure!

Great finds Shaun.
So, It's mucky over the pond huh?



Mucky is not the word! I nearly gave up a few times because the spade was so caked in mud it just wouldn't dig :P

All of these fields that are in your area are good fields ... just have to wait for the rain stop and spend time.

The couple of buttons with detail I got sort of saved the day :-\ I'm starting to like buttons!

As for the Cartwheel, I'm too busy thinking about gold hammered to worry about them ;D

Hi shaun, nice buttons there and the token looks really good :icon_thumleft:. The pottery looks AS but doesn't have the tumbled appearance I would expect for that age. I'll dig my pottery tombes out and have a look, could you send me another pic with something in for scale. On a different topic I was cleaning out some boxes and such in the loft and re-found a coin that has been in my family for over 150 years. I'll give you 1 guess as to what it is ;D :laughing9: ;D.
