I went hunting with a retired army guy that has been living over here for over 20 years. He has been hunting for about 15 or so. We went to a place where we thought there might have been some roman activity around 200-400AD. We hunted these terribly muddy fields for about three hours with out finding much. I think he had pulled two late 1800 coins out of the ground and I had found a couple of musket rounds and an unreadable coin and other odds and ends. It was about 32 degrees and getting late.Around 4 pm we decided to try a small grassy field across the road before we headed out. After about 15 minutes I had a signal and could not seem to find my target. Finnally I saw what I thought was a flat button but it had no back on it. After cleaning it off I saw that it was a roman coin. It is very small and probably not worth anything but it will go great in my collection! I found one more coin after that (an 1899 something )and some trash. Hope all is well and happy hunting. :)

I have found out that there is an old Roman settlement about seven miles up the road!? :) The top of the Moutian is off limits but you can hunt the base and the sides. I talked to a guy that said he found a roman key there.The only problem is the ground is frozen solid.? ????
