Cru'Dad's Lucky Hunt!!!
Whilst I was down the pub, Dad was still trying for likely places ready for the weekend. It was another huge Barley stubble field, which we had never hunted but had very little going for it!
He only hunted for 1.5 hours & got a very lucky find & it happened as follows;
He had dug up 2 large plough shears & was carrying them to the edge quickly to get them off the field. He got another banging signal & thought he was in for another plough bit but dug a:
Charles I
1642-43
Halfcrown
King on horse back riding left
[CARLOVS.D.G.MA]G.BRI.FRA.ET.HIB.[R]EX
Oval draped shield
Bugle mint mark
Truro Mint
[CHRISTO.AVSPI]CE.RE[GNO]
This is now our largest denomination of hammered ever found
