EDWARD111 SILVER HOARD

[Silver Searcher]

Hi All......today turned out to be the best days detecting so far this year, went back to one of my favourite Fields and was met with a glorious sight ploughed and rolled this is the Field that produced the Celtic Brooch that made the banner, it's also given up Roman Brooches and coins, and Silver hammered parts of the field can be very queit and it was on this part that the first coin came up a half groat of Edward111 as you can imagine I was thrilled to bits but as I walked forward a couple of steps I picked up a faint but positive signal I dug down and out popped two not one but two Groats again Edward111 now my hart was racing and I new I was on a hoard or purse spill what seemed like an age but was probably only a couple of minutes went by and another half groat with a fresh piece missing from the top made an appearance (I later found the missing piece) I went on to recover four more groats and one outher half groat, there is a good chance of more coming of especially when the ground settles down a bit more any way hear's the pictures TK

She does look like a goat. Probably lost by a rich noble running for his life, not wanting to support that bugger. He was a deviate like a certain president we had.

Hi...two or more Ancient coins of precious metal are classed as treasure and you have to declare them

 

[BuckleBoy]

My, God--that's unbelievable.



This is a Banner Post--but I'm waiting for you to add the photos of the rest of the hoard so that we get a group shot of the coins before I recommend your post.

So who has to know? did someone see you dig them? I see nothing, I hear nothing...

Hi BB.....the coins shown in the group photo are what come from the ground today, ill hazard a guess and say that a few more might show up this season but this spot could keep producing the odd coin for years to come

Other than the obivious Banner statement (which this surely is!), all I can say is:
'It must be a dream come true'

I don't think I even own 1 groat, let along a hand full

I would have been happy with just one of those.

I can't see the BM wanting those (might be wrong), but I hope you get to keep them.
