Old Permission - Day 2 - Roman Silver...

[CRUSADER]

Decided to return to where we had success last week.
The weeds are getting worse but the ground was still wet to dig. Normally this time of year would be hotter & dryer!
We managed 3hrs 45mins again & I just about scooped another Roman silver on my last but 1 run on the edge of the field.

This will be the last chance on here unless the spray off the weeds.

5 Scrappies
2 Lead Tokens
Jetton
Lead Cloth Seal
x2 17th C Leather Ornaments
Barrel Tap Key
Circa 1787 Royal Navy Capt's Cuff Button
Unknown Roman Siliqua
