Tyre Track Finds...UPDATE

CRUSADER · Mar 19, 2011

Dad came up with a plan to try some tyre tracks on an oilseed rape field. Turned out to be a good plan :headbang:

We also managed some small areas where the birds had eaten the crop.

16 grotty Roman Bronze Coins & 1 blank Silver Denarius.
Nice acorn terminal Medieval Strapend
Rose & Royal Farthing
2 Lead Tokens
17th Century Token
Jetton
Bits..

My favourite find of the day was a 18th C hand painted ceramic cufflink. Never had one quite like it until now

(shame its a little damaged $:-\$ )

Great finds :thumbsup:

I have always wanted to ask you what you do with all of your finds? Do you have them displayed or are they stored away? If you have some displays I am sure that we would all love to see pictures if you have any (and don't mind posting them).

I keep them all (other than giving a %age to the farmers that are interested)

My displays are in the local museum, not open very often & when it is I'm out hunting, so a picture of them is unlikely. Also just helped out a local project that's doing a video on the local Roman Town, many of my finds will be pictured & on video for a local resource (mostly schools etc..)

Thanks, I thought so as well. I've not seen another one like it, even in my books.

I forgot to explain that the ceramic is stuck on a copper-alloy back, which is why I heard it.
