Yesterday Dad tried 3 different fields, & ended up with a nice copper As of Domitian. So we decided to start on that field. After 1.5 hours of only 1 scrappy, we moved over the road to our No.1 Field, but after 2.5 hours we had very little to show for it. These fields need a deep plough so we will put them to rest for a couple of years.

Livery Button
Top of a Roman Brooch
5 Scrappies
1/2 Jetton
Bits...

The search continues for a better option & we now have lots to choose from.:dontknow:

Had the same yesterday. Some fields just need some years and a couple plows. The As is a real beauty! Very rare to get one in this condition from plowed land. :thumbsup:

Still amazes me the age of what you find. A 200 year old coin in the USA is a rare find. The thought of who, when, and where such things came from puts your playground in a whole different league than ours. Congrats:notworthy:
