We only had a 2.5 hour window so we headed back to our closest option, only expecting about 4 scrappies & if lucky a hammered. Wrong again!

I just wanted to add a picture of one of my smallest finds to show the power of the XP in wheat stubble. (on the 1 cent piece)

8 scrappies
2 Lead Tokens
Bits...

It was Dads day today with both the best finds:
Carcalla Denarius circa AD204:hello2:
Circa 14th C Medieval Pilgrims folding mirror case. (most complete one we have, I think) Pilgrims would capture the image of the Staint in the mirror, close the lid & seal the image in for safe keeping whilst taking it home for good fortune/ward off the evil eye.

Very nice! We say in every field is at least one roman coin hidden. Looks like you got this one and it is silver! :icon_thumright:
Never seen pilgrims mirrors here. Cool find. Lead pilgrim ampoules to take holy water home are rare enough here.

Nice silver! Great detail on that one, and a very interesting find with the mirror case. What do use to clean the silvers?
