Finally after a nightly walk with my trusty minelab 705, I got a coin from my favorite monarch Christian llll, and on top of that i I found a copper from 1771 and a fidget spinner.:occasion14: Screenshot_2017-07-06-20-11-43.png Screenshot_2017-07-06-20-12-00.png IMG_20170706_201418.jpg

A cheap one until I can decide on a very good brand-name one to buy.

Very cool finds Jan. You should celebrate by taking yourself out to eat. It looks like he ruled from 1588 to 1648. Wow, a 60 year reign.

I say banner... not for the "value"...

Or the scarcity...

But for the simple fact... its from 1771.

IMO... anything from 1700's found by someone metal detecting... is a stellar find. heh

The 1771 is the most common coin in Denmark, 55 million were minted, the small silver coin is from 1628, so it's a little bit better.:occasion14:
