We were thinking that we would not get much today because the 1/2 acre left to do at the far end of the field had not produced much last week.
On the way to the field we noticed they had started digging the water pipeline trench. We jumped out the car & noticed they had only taken of a 20 metre wide (80 metres long) trench but only 1 foot deep. So we tried this area. On the first strip all I had was a musket ball. Half way back on the second strip I found a Roman Coin at the same time Dad found a Celtic Coin. Celtic coins are extremely rare & I have sent photo's of it to the museum to record it (I will update later). Went to next field & pipeline trench where I found a Medieval Short-cross hammered. THE GRAND SLAM - CELTIC-ROMAN-MEDIEVAL - I can't remember this ever happening before!!!
Then we went on to do the 1/2 acre & as expect found very little!
Coins - Tasciovanus (20BC-10AD) Bronze Unit, 2 Roman Coins, Henry III 1216-72 - Nichole (Moneyer) of London.
Buttons - Livery - Bird over H, Small 19th Century type.
