That's a pile of buttons Cru. Both my D1 and D2 have excelled at sniffing out those types smaller midrange conducting targets. What is the lead-colored pencil tip shaped object in the second pic?

Its a Lead Pencil, hard to date, often thought to be used by stone masons.

That's a pile! The coin, 3rd pic down, left side, almost looks cartoonish....not the greatest of hammered but still hammered!

Unreal on the amount of buttons recovered...I think my heart would jump each time thinking it was a coin...

Always a joy to read your posts!

Fantastic finds! Congrats

Still a really nice showing of finds, I'd be happy.
A good looking Roman and some silver, though I'm kind of liking the counterstamped copper sitting there also.
Well done
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, and your Dad, Crusader.
