Table of Results:
Hours Detecting: Me 257 hrs, Cru'Dad 265 hrs, Grand Total = 522hrs
Its been a very mixed year & our results reflect the low hours we did this year, more than 35% lower than normal.
However, we still managed our best Hammered year by 1 coin (beat 2009).
We mostly focused on Saxon & Medieval areas, which is why we done well on the Sceats but poorly on the Roman Coins. (partly due to a lack of deeply ploughed Roman Sites that we have gridded well in the past)
No Celtic Gold this year but we (Cru'dad) got 2 unusual Gold Coins;

The Track-Way Site - Day 7 - 2 Hammered, SAXON SCEAT & CAROLINGIAN GOLD COIN...

1000 Acre Permission - 1 Hammered & 1713 Queen Anne GOLD Half-Guinea...
Returned to the grass field that we finished on last Monday with 1 hammered at last knockings. It's a field we have gridded about 40% of it in the past with just a light scattering of Hammered & 1 odd Roman silver. My aim was to get about another 40% before we cross it off the list. Struggled in...
