Charles1 Hammered...A Cracker.

[Silver Searcher]

Well at last managed to finally get out and hunt a new field had become available, we have been waiting to hunt this field, as it is opposite to were Michael found the George1V Gold Coin

This field has a small Church in one corner near a cross road, and that's were I decided to head for I knew there would be a short cut across the Field, as the road runs right around the outside, the Farmer had told us this field had never been detected, so our hopes were high

There quite a few signals to start with, the usuall..lead, buttons,etc. After about a hour I decided to move to were I thought the right of way might start, I soon started to find the copper coins, early 1900s at first, then a few older Georgie's, towards the bottom of the run I received a very strong signal, I popped the earth and started to sift the dirt..bingo a grey disc appeared and I new I was staring at my first Hammered of the new campaign A cracking Charles1 Silver Three Pence, full flan and unclipped, with some very strong detail

I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story, I managed another Hammered , cut half s/cross, and a whatsit I think might be a decorated candle snuffer have a look anyway

Rare coins should go to auction, it costs more, but you reach the right clients.
