Any part of an axe would be fine with me, nice going on the Viking strapend.

Happens so often that way, start or the finish of the hunt, might as well nap in between the two ends. :)
 

Hi! Cru' & Cru' Dad,
If you have found a coin from Baldred King of Kent, Wikopedia says only 19 of his coins are known. After you clean your finds up, would you please do a feature post on that coin? All of your finds are very nice. I can appreciate the work you men do to retrieve them.
Best of Luck,
Phil
 

I'm sure that wasn't exactly what you were hoping to find, but you certainly didn't get skunked. Some nice pieces in that pile.

Actually we were expecting very little, so it was a good result considering.
