These last two days I searched the both areas for half a day each. With the GPS tracker I could find new paths. The bronze coins keep coming but being in a hill near the surface the most of them is almost flat.
Somehow I got used with them but not with the shine of the silver.
These two days each area paid me with a silver coins.:headbang:

Now I can rest for a while :tongue3:

Drachm of Dyrrachium. 260 B.C.

I wanted to say: My last two days paid in silver.
Don't know how to correct it!

And I think that these five lines on the sling bullet were made on purpose.

Wow Vince you sure are in the right spots to pull those old coins. :icon_thumleft: I bet you get disappointed if the coin is from the early 1800's.

Cool find Vince, can you post a top-down photo so we can see both sides of that half of the bullet? I can't tell from the side-view if there may be more faint embossing that might give a better understanding. It looks like it may be a crude representation of a "Fulmen" or lightning flash from a thundercloud, an image the Romans and Hellenistic Greeks liked to use, where the message to the victim was that getting struck with the bullet was like getting struck by lightning, or by Zeus or Jupiter himself!

Thanks Scrappy.
I did a quick web search about iron crosses from medieval times and i found this one. They look very similar.

Lot of 2 authentic Byzantine age hand forged iron crosses.Found in Balkans. s-l300.jpg

Thanks my friend.
well, in this case it would be great even if i can find a coin from 1900' because here it looks impossible :laughing7: . Now i'm having nightmares like someone is trying to steal my treasure and when i go back to those areas i find the ground full of big holes. :icon_scratch:
