After the poor result yesterday I decided to go to the reserve field I have been gridding when Cru'Dad is away. (it's the last field in cycling distance) It's overgrown Wheat Stubble but is now somewhat soften. Not very good hunting for Dad & the Cortes but I got a head start & did 5 hours whilst he joined me for 2.5 hours. Foggy day but still mild :)

1 Good early Button :)
Late 17th C Buckle
Broken Tudor Clothes Fastener
Cloth Seal
Lead Token
17th C Halfpenny Token
Late 19th C Brooch
Early 19th C Seal Matrix (broken)
5 Scrappies
£1 :D

Celtic Silver Unit (about 40 recorded)- Cunobelin 'Sphinx' Unit. Circa 20-43 A.D - Our 3rd Celtic Silver this Year, equal to our record 3 in 2008 :headbang:

Hard to imagine that waiting there for you for all this time.

Don't know anything about the coin, but knowing how much stuff you do dig up have an "idea" of how rare a find it is.

Congrats.

It is hard to think how many feet stepped over this find. It was close to a large Oak Tree where I have seen a guy shoot pigeons, & the decoy birds would be right over this spot. He must have walked over this area to pick up his prized catch. :D So probably the same guy who lost the £1 coin but nearly 2000 years apart :o
