After yesterday, I had to leave work early to give the field another go. I just knew silver wasn't far away. I was digging like I was on fire even though this is my 4 day in a row. I hurt. But I finally got that silver & a rarer one too!

Re: STUBBLE FIELD - HAMMERED>>> UPDATED ID FOR TOKEN

The small token (3rd picture bottom right with TNE) is cica 1660s:

Nathaniel Tucker at the Unicorn (Pub) in King Street Westminster, London. (London is a long way away & seeing as you could only spend it in that pub they rarely travelled very far)

Its a beer token

Its a brass farthing. Normally if you didn't have more than 5 or so you couldn't spend them in the shop that issued them. So "its not worth a Brass Farthing".

That is hilarious! I wonder if that pub is still there? hahaha It would be detectable!

I just cannot believe the fantastic stuff you guys are able to unearth, through skill and the miracle "Location, Location, Location".

Great hunting! You must have an Artifact Room that's to die for.
