It's easy to be lucky but it's much harder to be consistent, especially during the off-season. The choices are still pretty wide but none of them have good intel & only 1 has a low yield site. Therefore, today was another calculated risk based on what I found out from the last hunt. I found 1 Medieval dwelling which re-writes the records as it not where they record it. Today, I found another one not far down the edge of the field. Putting them on the map is what we enjoy, & we out done ourselves again!:laughing7:

5 Hours;

17th C Button
10th Reg of Foot Officers Button circa 1810.8-)
2 Crotal Bells (Still ring)
Medieval Buckles - The top left one I found 'eyes only' more than 1.5 metres ahead of my swing.:laughing7:
3 Jettons
Medieval Strap-end
Medieval Thimble
Medieval Coin Weight
Tudor Clothes Fastener
6 HAMMERED;
  • Scottish Cut Half of Alexander III circa 1250
  • Henry III cut Half Circa 1272
  • Henry III Sterling Imitation Circa 1272
  • Lizzy Threepence Circa 1575 (Double struck obv.)
  • Lizzy HalfGroat Circa 1580 (Love Token)
  • Henry VIII Halfpenny Circa 1540

10 Hunts for me & 9 for Cru'dad has produced 24 Hammered for this year. In 2017 we only had 28 in the WHOLE year!

It's actually part of a locking mechanism, which could be Roman or Medieval.

And here I am meticulously scanning the curb strip looking for 8" deep wheaty pennies.

I'm going to start swimming right now, and I'll be at your place, CRUSADER, by tea time on the 'morrow!
