Through the centuries

[Westfront]

From Roman to Wartime

Almost 2000 years of history in one hunt. The site is close to a roman road on top of a small hill and seems to be frequented over a long period.
Lots of roman pottery let me hope for some finds but only a couple nails and one toasted coin came off the ground.
Better was the first hammered for 2014!
Other finds were the usual trash, lead, nails, two possible chisel, broken buckle, buckle, horse harness mount, tiny barrel tap, decorated belt mount, buttons. The flattened out aluminum button let me think another hammered in the first moment... The other coins with two Silbergroschen and a 1939 10 Pfennig in outstanding condition.

You & Rob both beat me to the first hammered of the year. We are a bit shocked that after about 12 acres there are 0.

PS. looks like you should return there

Thanks Cru! I will go back as soon as possible, right now this field is an ankle breaker and when it starts freezing it's over... All signs are good, but the coins will not show.

Yes but with that range of interest, anything could come up & its not all about the scrappies.

Very true. I'll give it a try this week. Today was were the main building stood. I found another iron patch downhill so maybe the site was way bigger than expected.
