On Google maps, my new site was about three hours by car so I left home at 2.00 this morning. But Google was wrong and I was there at 4.00. I could stay in the car and wait but I think you already know what I did. Using the car lights I began searching for some lost stuff. The first hole produced this broken seal ring.

I tried it but I'm not brave enough

Some nice Macedonian coins followed until my first Tetradrachm came out.


Alexander III. 323-313 BC. AR Drachm. Lampsakos mint. Head of Herakles right, wearing lionskin headdress / AΛEXANΔΡOY,, Zeus seated left, right leg drawn back, holding eagle and sceptre; Artemis left with torch beneath chair. Price 1379 var (no symbol in left field). Unpublished var without 'belt-buckle' symbol in left field. CNG 725215.
This was the very first time in my life kissing a coin
It was almost dawn when it began raining but I didn't stop and found two or three other coins and a lot of lead stuff.
After less than one hour I had two muddy shoes weighting 2kg each that's why I decided to leave that area and head to another one. The rain stoped because it began snowing and it was windy too. The area was already painted in white. I was freezing but I didn't want to turn home. A Roman coin as the first and after that this beautiful silver coin jumped out of the hole. No ID yet.
This was the hardest day but with two great silvers I was happy to turn back home.




This is the rest











Driving back home

Thanks guys for watching.
