We had storm warning today, but with the warm wind and partly sunny it looked like perfect detecting weather first...
Ok, on the open field we had lots of fun. Never had to turn the volume up to 9, never had to run for the detector tumbling over the field after laying it down and never lost a button because it was blown out of my hand...up to 80mls wind speed.
We detected a random field just because we could and options are rare. It will sometimes work when the field is close to a village with some 800 year history.
All finds
Musket balls
Stuff....
Weird lead plug(?)
Blue glass bead, American pottery....
(coin for size)
Nice large Dandy and little button with shamrock, a first for me.
1785 1/2 Stuber dished almost like worked into a button but no solder.
Coins of the day with one token (on top) i need to research.
Oh, the best last. The farmer stopped by when he was checking the fields for damage by fallen trees. We chatted a bit and i talked him into permission to do a dig in his farm next winter. Took me 5 years to get....
This farm is standing on a roman one. Dig a feet in the vegetable garden and you come up with so much pottery and roman rubbish you need a wheelbarrow....

I really like the button and the fancy buckle.
Lots of musket balls in the field, probably shooting range long ago.
