:hello:

mannaged a few hours on the road last night, would have posted it then but it was very late when I got back, the spoil heaps are constantly being mooved around, so stil plenty of areas to detect.

Finds were a bit hard to come by, even trash, no Silver but a few Roman Bronze coins (another biggie) Nerva again I think, and right at the top of a huge spoil heap a nice chunky Roman Bronze Ring, this possibly had a Glass stone on it at some point.

I have include in the pictures the Roman Bronzes I have found on the road so far :headbang:SS

I've kept all of mine :-
 
Nice find. I guess they didn't have diamonds in those days :D Still love to find one of those just to say a Roman wore it thousands of years ago
 
By far, you are one of the best UK hunter on this forum! For the amount of time you put in the hobby, you find the goods. :headbang:

The road is Roman, and was the main route from York to Carlisle, it is now being transformed from a dual carriage way to a three lane motor way, the prodject will last three years :laughing7: :laughing7:
 
Nice to see it complete, very good piece. Still plenty where that came from. The harvest is nearly here (early this year), if you have barley?

I think you will be about three weeks ahead with the harvest on us :'( plenty of detecting on the road, but it needs lots of attention, almost 100% certain good artifats and coins will be lost forever :'(

on a work night :o

certainly not!!!
 
That one large bronze looks to be in pretty good shape and legible. Good for you to be able to sift that area. While you may miss some of the prizes you're getting quite a few as well. And the road work continues...God knows what will pop up!
 
3 Years??? Oh man you will be way to big for us by then :notworthy: You might as well pick out a lot at the end of that road to build a museum. Love seeing your finds off that ole road. Thanks.
