Uh, the only advice that this old boy can give you is to probably dig everything. If you know it's a Roman site, why miss a thing?

Hi Austin ive been this morning and tried a small area its got lots of iron everywhere and theres signals every five inches apart at the most. i know what the iron IDs at and was just wondering what ferrous roman coins could ID as. I would have dug every signal over the corse of a year but ive only got a short space of time on this permission so i dont want to destroy the area.
