Day 29 - Big Grass Field........

[CRUSADER]

Yesterday we finished section 3, we started section 4 today which is the lower slope. Spent 3 hours in the hail & rain but who cares about that.

Dad started well with a 1853 Silver Shilling.

I later sneaked out a Hammered (2 in two days off this field is a minor miracle, takes us to 10 this year)

Henry III
1247-72
Voided Long Cross

Lead token
17th century brass token cancelled with a square nail throw the centre
Tiny lock
2 bag seals
2 Oz Pan weight (Victorian)

Another good find....finding the cut quarter shows your detectors tuned right in only ever had 2 cut quarters

You guys out in England sure have a lot of potential for finding old stuff. Good going on the shilling

Glad to see you got another Hammered!

Old Henry Three wasn't much of a ruler--I'm more of a fan of Henry One despite his undignified death from eating lamprey.


Congratulations, Crusader! I'm happy to see CrusaderDad got a bit of silver as well.

I'm more a fan of the Saxon & Viking Kings but never find them

I was quite hopeful about this lower section, & Cru'Dad was his normal doubtful self. Until he found the Shilling, then he predicts we might get a hammered that day. Then it was me being careful & say 'I think we will get a hammered but not today'. The rest is history

Cru'Dad as you know likes finding but gives all to me. However the Shilling will most likely end up in the farmers collection.

I will have a day off today as I'm close to relapsing into my old detecting injury.

Very nice finds Crusader. That tiny lock looks so small, I can't imagine how small that key would be for it. Neat find.
