Hi all, I was heading to a new field to go detecting when I noticed that the farmer had disced the other half of my fave field. Seeing it was closer, I decided to go to my fave field and save the new field for during the week. I'm only posting 3 finds at the moment because all the rest are still in soak, I will take photo's tomorrow in daylight and post them then. The first coin of the day was this nice little hammered that came out of the ground in pretty good condition, then followed 2 romans and some coppers. Also in the mix were these 2 lead hem? weights, the one on the left is 1 oz and the one on the right is exactly 1/2 oz. There were also buttons galore and a book clasp. Now the pics of the hammered and the lead weights.
I haven't id'd the coin yet.

1) Hammered obverse
2) Ditto reverse
3) Lead hem? weights

You say 'the others are in soak' - can I ask what you soak your finds in please?
 
I think that means he hasn't gotten around to cleaning them LOL

Hi David, a wise and very old detectorist advised me to soak my finds in distilled water to which I add a mild hand soap.
