I was with Crusader yesterday and he beat me all around the field with his XP, one hammered after another :-\ He had 5 and my hammered total was 0 :-[

Today I went back for a few hours to see if he had left me anything. I did manage a hammered today, it was hiding from Cru under a pile of hay :laughing7:

First three pics are of the beating I took yesterday, the next are from today.

I think the hammered is a Henry 111, like the one I lost. It's a cut half that quickly broke as I gave it a gentle rub :'(

It is clear that the XP is good to hunt hammered. :laughing7:
if it's any consolation I have many coins destroyed by improper cleaning. :dontknow:
Greetings! :thumbsup:

It's a great machine for the hammered silver, just not when Crusader is in front of you :laughing7:

The coin must have been cracked already, I barely touched it :-\
 
Those are some nice bits, in my opinion. I really like the ramrod channel with the cross-hatched design.

:thumbsup:
 
Don't mess around in the field rubbing or cleaning Shaun, put a find away softly to protect it and then look and do the work at home when you can see the condition of the find. I thought I taught you better than this. I see that all the time, people rubbing the sand/dirt off. Please don't anymore!

Nice finds, pity that Cru got the best of you.

No time, we have been here already for a week, we search from 9 to 5 every day, then clean the sob's and then eat (we first have to make it) and then lay around in a daze (8 hours a day is long, and not good to your arms and legs. Will let you know what we find later when I get home, but not here with Daryl, but with our club (wf4.nl) on our yearly expedition, our 13th year. 3 of our favorite fields are almost ready to search and only about 4 days to do that, its going to be hard, especially with the bad weather in the next few days.....
