We only now had 3 hours of sunlight left & we moved to a site that Land-Mag had researched & I had spotted on google earth, I remember the day I sent him to the area to field walk pottery & I got an excited call saying his pockets were over flowing. Ever since then, I couldn't wait to try it. I studied aerials again last night & walked quickly into the huge field using large trees as bearing, I stopped short of where I wanted to pick up a pot shard. That was all I needed, on with the machine, & without a lie, second sweap a Roman coin :o

We ended up with 44 Bronze Coins, 2 debased Silver. ;D
My first Roman Bell :)
Roman bronze Pin
I thought the tinned fibula (which looked silver when it popped out the ground) & large one were nice until I dug a stunning Roman enamelled Celtic Horse Rider Brooch with pin - 2nd Century AD (1900 years old) :o :o :o :o :o :o Much better than the book example :read2:

Thanks very much my US Bud. :icon_thumright:

This one really is the top model of its type. The one pictured in the book is a slightly more common type & one I have seen broken a few times on ebay. This type with the added detail & rounded features on the horses head etc.. have mostly been recorded by Archies on special sites :wink:

That is what amazed me, stuff a quarter of its size have have been damaged. Its mostly the very heavy clay lumps that have luckily saved it. Although its a lot of luck, as if it were sticking out at any point it would have been sheared off.
