Grabbed a 1 hour hunt....

[CRUSADER]

Had a family meal today so only had time for 1 hour whilst my other half was riding out the horse. I have had permission for this horse paddock (& others) for over a year but never had time to try it. Now that choices are limited it was time to try. It has the Villiage well in it, but that area was covered in trash/iron so followed my nose a little. I still enjoy this kind of hunt, you just don't know til you try. Proof of that, was Land-magnet finding a Road coin at 2 inches, must have been thrown up from the nearby ditch

Pleased with the RAF silver pendant & the 1940 silver 6 pence came from 9 inches which was my first find (this we thought a bad sign for anything old until the Roman coin popped up )

I won't mention that coin dated 1797

Umm I hate you, not really but jesus you UK guys have some great stuff. I could probably fly to Great Britain spend a week Detecting and do it faster and cheaper than flying out to one of the pay to mine gold camps here in Alaska. I hunted 5 hours this morning and got a whole $2.04 in clad. I need to move to somewhere with more than 100 yrs of civilization and not winter 7 months a year. Great finds for an hour hunt Crusader, especially the RAF Silver, when I was young I read every book about the RAF, WWII I could lay my hands on and wished to fly a spitfire. Your history is just plain awesome.

Cheers, as it happens I think the pendant might be WWII era. (At first I thought WWI but it was not that deep)
