Probably not but the last find of today's hunt sure looks ancient!
Tony and I got out for another day at our new site only to arrive and find that it has been plowed . . . deep. Hills and valleys make detecting difficult but we gave it a couple hours anyway. Found a lot of heavy brass but the only coin found at this site was the 1918 large cent.
We moved on to the pasture which butts up against this field on one side and I found the broken shoe buckle and a lot of trash. Still waiting for the corn to come out on the other side of the field so we can chase the site.
We spent the next two hours hunting for a place to detect and ended up back at the site where I found the 1690s Netherlands Spanish copper and the as yet unidentified hammered silver. We only spent an hour here and the last target of the day was the "Roman" . It's got the look and feel but is, as seen, quite damaged. Definitely enough to identify so please...have at 'er! Thanks again for looking!
