Some Roman bits & bobs
Blank Lead Token
Circa 1800 Pewter 80th Reg of Foot Button (a first)
Silver Cufflink button

Thats just unbelievable.
I wish we could make a field like new with the plough. I may have to pay a farmer for an additional 4 inch... Congrats on the score and the Antonius Pius!

Thought gridding that section would be fruitful! Good work to both

In about 4.5 hours I dug 87 pennies, oldest 1925, 11 quarters, oldest 1966, 23 dimes, oldest 1965, 4 nickels and a very small silver childs or toe ring.

It's kinda the same, isn't it?? TELL ME IT'S THE SAME, PLEASE! Well, I had fun and got my exercise, dangit!

Nice haul, grats on the denarius and the first for you and, as always, thanks for sharing all the incredible finds.

Amazing results! That site must have a few more nice ones. Don't remember seeing so many bronze coins from one hunt. Congratulations!

Man, I am so jealous of the history you have to dig in your neck of the woods. Don't get me wrong, I know you work hard for it. It's not like every tot lot in the UK has Silver Denarii to uncover, but still, the history is within a few hours of where you live. I'm just lucky to hit the late-1800s in my area of the world. Keep inspiring us with these goodies!

Thanks, actually none of our sites are much more than a 45 min drive.Its the research & permission that takes time.
