2 Hour Hunt on Fav Field - WOW...

[CRUSADER]

This favourite field was the one I took a weeks holiday off to do last year & where I found the Gold Hammered which made the banner. Cru'dad on his own, couldn't wait until this field was ploughed & wandered in the stubble for 2 hours!

He got our Second Roman Silver of the year (bad condition) Antoninus Pius AD163 (maybe?)
A hammered sovereign penny of Henry VII 1485-1504 - York Mint (keys below shield). This is our first sovereign penny & fills a gap in the collection

Plus a silver 3 pence 1874
2 Livery Buttons
blanks

3 Silver of different periods in 2 hours whilst wandering (not griding) Lucky or what

Things are improving all we need now is some better roman silver

I can walk to this field in 10-15 minutes but normally cycle in 2-3mins.

Actually the heavy clay & chemicals the farmers put on the fields are not forgiving at all. (147 roman bronzes this year & only 4-5 album coins) Only the odd item escapes.
