My Lucky Day - Gold...

[CRUSADER]

Continued in the Barley Field that Dad had the 2 Hammered in. Took the US guy out for 1.5 hours & he got 1 button, at least he saw me get my first hammered in awhile.

I not only got 3 Roman Coins, but the Hammered of Henry III is a Northampton mint - a new mint for me

Rounded of the day with a Georgian? or Victorian? Gold Locket - has a panel of glass & some kind of fabric backing - probably for a lock of hair.

So a much better day for a change 8)

The Hibernia Farthing isn't bad either, at least by our standards on this side.

sweet hammered, Cru.
was your 'US guy' using the old cortes?
it would drive me nuts watching someone pull all that out while i had a button in my pocket for my efforts...

hmmm, now i know how my hunting buddies must feel...

yes the Cortes. He left after 1.5 hours, but I did 4 hours, so he didn't see it all, including the Gold, I will send him a picture

can't really make out the persons initials

Cool locket any idea on age?

I think the lettering looks late Georgian, but the locket idea for a lock of hair (ie. mourning piece) was high Victorian Sadly it was never hallmarked. So its was an illegal commissioned piece.

very nice old finds

 

[Deno]

Cru, I always like looking at your finds. The gold locket is outstanding.

 

[Woodland Detectors]

More great finds.

You must be retired or have a very flexible schedule.
I like the royal Army medical button the best!

Congrats
