We normally manage about 3.5-4 hours in those conditions but it feels like your legs are being pulled off at the knee Sometimes the spade is useless & we just use our hands
Also you sleep well that night

Still at least you got a couple of good finds

Fun in the mud, Great old Coin

Cool coin. Bronze? Maybre MidEastern, judging by the fort showing? Just WAG by me though.....
Get back there when the weather allows. Seems you have a great place to dig.

Cool coin.

 

[KOOTNEY KID]

Now thats cool!

 

[cuzcosquirrel]

Yeah, looks like the blanca. I think I found one of those on the beach opposite a historic wreck site. Only thing still on it was some of the border ticking and a little design. I was pretty lucky.
