(maybe a white lie, I have lots of bad days not detecting)

Cru'Dad & I were storming it these last 2 days gridding the Site- 9.5 hours for me, 7 hours for Dad.
We were very busy digging lots of junk, but this site is now finished until a deep plough in years to come.
Results:

Victorian Royal Navy Button
Livery Button
27 Roman Bronze Coins
Geo I Irish Farthing
Broken Roman Fibula (Catchplate)
1939 Shilling
Broken Silver Denarius
Lizzy I Hammered Penny (Only 2nd hammered off this field ever!)
Copper Core & Silver Plated Denarius of Julia Domna (Contemporary forgery)
Star Find Julian II Silqua - Well done Cru'dad!

WOW-You guys are killin' it!! Keep 'em coming-we love to see the ancient finds from the UK.
 

wow, sweet finds! That fibula would have been a looker, most don't have fancy cast decorative cutouts (not sure what to call the feature).

Nice siliqua, looks rather round, maybe filed and used through Saxon times? Got a weight on it?

Also, got an ID on that holed circular piece with 4 loops? It looks like it might be special.

Looking forward to more goodies from the spot, congrats!

Also, got an ID on that holed circular piece with 4 loops? It looks like it might be special. I thought it looked good when I pulled it but its a bit of Victorian bracelet or waist band.

Looking forward to more goodies from the spot, congrats!

See above comments.
 

If i ever get over there...you have to promise to show me your collection...again outstanding..yup you're so right, no bad day detecting!
 

Beautiful treasure! Only bad days I have are with the hair not setting right....lol Congrats!
 

Just Wow. Your always have incredible finds. Thanks for letting us be a part of your hunts.
 

Fantastic relic and coin recoveries!
 

UNBELEIVEABLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

That's one heck of a lot of digging for you guys Cru! :notworthy:

If I was out detecting for that amount of time over two days, my wife would have a fit! :laughing7:
