Roman Hill Top Site...

[CRUSADER]

This site has been gridded hard over the last few years & it never had that many Roman silver finds. However, it's had a small 6 inch turn after the bean crop last year & the conditions are perfect. Drilled with Winter Wheat, rolled flat & wet! Game on....
We didn't expect to do as well as this, so another nice day in the sun, perfect weather, cool but dry.
We gridded the main area for 5.5 hours & came up with the following;

16 Roman Coins (1 nice one)
17th C Button (Civil War period)
Large 18th C Blow-hole Button
Buckles
Roman Pin Head
Broken Book Clasp
Bits...
2 Hammered I need - Irish Ed I Dublin Mint, Ed IV Arch Bishop Booth of York Penny

Congrats on the finds. That would be a fun hunt with that many targets, even after being detected.

Ah yes...god bless the plough!

Yeap, but in this case it was more the perfect conditions that played the largest part.
