The Hill - Day 1 - 4 Hammered - GROAT...

[CRUSADER]

We had a few options but I let Cru'dad call this one, & it worked out better than expected.
Although I'm calling this day 1 on this field we did have a little go on the higher area where the oilseed rape had failed & they drilled spring beans. We also had a few good finds whilst crossing it back & forth to the Trackway Site.
However, its the first serious grid we have done & although there are good finds they are very spread out & it takes a large area grid to get anything.
Just over 6 hours:

3 Scrappies (1 holed in the Saxon period)
Buckles - until I pictured them I hadn't realized that Cru'dad had found the other half of my Spec buckle.
2 Tudor Strap-ends
2 bits of Bronze age Axe
14th C Medieval Sword Chape
Bit of a 6th C Saxon Brooch
2 Rose Farthings
17th C Token
Mystery Hammered French Coin
Ed I Penny
Henry VI Penny (folded over)
Edward III Groat (had only 2 others, this is equal to the best)

Amazing to dig truly old hammered silver with such frequency.

Great day for silver, congrats on the Groat. The "hammered French" is well hammered.

Whilst looking for todays Scottish Coin find, I worked out it was really Scottish & most likely my first Billion 'Plack' of James IV. (Never had this King)
