Today I carried on gridding where Crusader and I left off. The field has been ploughed and rolled so it was
a bit easier.

Didn't find too much in 4 hours, a large book clasp and some buttons!

Well pleased with the two hammered though, I think one is a Charles 1 Half Groat and the other :dontknow:
Neither are in good shape, but they still count ;D

Thanks Bob, sometimes you learn the hard way though! Two weeks ago I was looking at something i found that had been hanging around for a while. Just some bent up copper, but bent in a way as to serve a purpose, anyway i started bending it back and broke
it! No great loss, it went in the bin!
Last week I found out that these were a rivet for repairing sheet metals and possibly Roman :'(

You're right you still got the pics and the thrill of finding them :icon_thumright: Two more hammered adding nicely to your count :thumbsup:
 

Two in one day! :hello2: excellent.
Well done mate.

Cheers David, I'm on 12 hammered now so watch out Crusader :D

That's actually the third time i've got 2 in a day :icon_thumleft:
 

Well done, Shaun.

My luck has been not as good. Yesterday, the "Bad" neighbor asks me to do him a favor and find an underground waterpipe on his property. So, hoping this will be an introduction for me to ask him for permission to hunt his land. I happily comply, go get my machine and do him the favor in a few seconds flat..

He asks, "You find anything important with that thing?". I say, "Sometimes." and I start sweeping just around us, and instantly get a hit. I say, "Here's a good hit." thinking it's a piece of aluminum or a small common coin, and out pops at least a 6-8 gram gold men's ring from 2" down, with a small blue saphhire in it. He grabs it. Puts in his pocket like I was stealing it from him and walks away, without even a thank you for either the pipe finding or the $100 worth of gold.

It was my second gold ring find. I've been depressed for over 24 hours now.

That's terrible, you should go and ask if you could at least take some pics of it! That way you could use it as an avatar like
I do with one of my lost coins :(

I find it helps :'( :'(
 

He bought this house a few years back, and has had workers around it for more than three years restoring it. It is 400 years old, with an attached small abandoned Catholic Church. He will return from his city digs tomorrow, maybe then he'll let me take pics if he brings it back with him. But, actually, it was my last thought.

It isn't the first time I did favors for the guy, and received nothing in return.

I have my first gold ring as my avatar, and sometimes wear it. This other one already has a bad memory attached to it.

I was about to say "50-50" on anything I find, but the beeps got me excited.

You could always run your waste into the water pipe you located for him, seeing as he is away all week :D

What a rude person >:(

Which one? The rose on both sides is a silver hammered Coin of Charles I.
