:hello:

It's really hard now to find land to search :'( we have one good field that is due to be ploughed for spuds so we went and checked it :P
Dam it was still in stubble, so we went looking :-\ found a couple of late planted barley fields but they were barron apart from a few musket balls and Vicky coinage. We headed back to the stubble field and decided to give that another bashing :P but nothing showed so in a last ditch effort we hopped the fence and give the Paddock field another look, Michael had had a Saxon Brooch of this Grass field 2 years back :o
This field saved the day :headbang: a few roman Bronzes, a nice topless Medieval thimble and my 14th Hammered of the year, my first of a Grass field :headbang:

Mine didn't picture well but that Bronze As you found looks like the same Emporer but I had no letters.

What is that Saxon looking bronze coin or is it dark silver? (PS. noticed its an Roman immitation)

I tried hard but the hammered were not to be found today.
 
That field looks good!

See, the XP's not so bad :icon_thumleft:

I'm out on a limb with that little coin :icon_scratch: it's Bronze and has a Romanized Obverse but the reverse is throwing me :help:

Yeah, it through me to begin with, not seen that reverse type before, but the head is of someone like Tetricus (270s) which were copied locally.

If the new areas produce along with the old....then yes 50 plus is possible :)

You really do get a good range of finds :icon_thumleft:. Well done on the 14 hammereds this year I'm only on 5 :'(, and no more fields for about 6 or 7 weeks if I'm lucky.

I'm spending a lot more time this year getting more permissions and fields and it has already started to pay off. Come harvest I am already going to be spoilt for choice, but I don't know about quality yet. Here's hoping :icon_thumleft:.

Congrats I always look forward to seeing your finds! :icon_sunny:
