a disappointing anticlimax..

[hodge]

My last post was a King Edward IV Silver Groat date range 1460's - 70's. I went out again this morning to a field neighbouring the one in which that coin came out of. What a disappointment it turned out to be! Only found 3 coins, a Penny of Queen Victoria - 1863, a halfpenny (also Victoria) - 1861, and an undatable half penny - probably George III circa 1806 (I can just make out tell-tale features). I've attached a photo of this mediocre trio of coins together with a US Quarter as a scale reference coin. Also found was a host of artefacts including a couple of hallmarked silver spoon handles, several horse harness buckles, a bullet and two musket balls. Artefacts just don't do it for me, I'm basically only interested in coins...coins are why I go out detecting! So, today was well and truly a disappointment...
Better luck next time I hope so.

"a disappointing anticlimax.."

And on Valentines's Day! The shame of it all.



Seriously, I'd be quite happy with those finds. You guys are so spoiled over there.

Yeah but that silver was good enough to hold you over for a couple bad hunts.


The 06 is the right type for the Georgie, but a One Penny.

Not near as bad as your anti-Cartwheel syndrome... There's no cure! (for you)
