Set-a-Side & Bird Cover...

[CRUSADER]

We spent the first hour & a bit on some set-a-side, it was very overgrown & with only 1 scrappy showing we moved on.

The next field was ploughed up bird cover, on the edge of a Roman Site. We managed 8 coins & in a nearby field I plucked out a shortcross hammered quarter.

Roman Pot Shards
9 Roman Coins
13th C Buckle
Roman Bronze Bead
Hammered Qrter

4 hours 15 minutes total & an OK result for this point of the year!

Different patina than most of your other roman coins? And with that cut hammered a really good day for almost mid may!

The red hue (iron) comes from the very wet ground that the coins were found in. Its a spring on the side of a hill.
