where have all the hammered's gone

I spent several hours on a field which I had a couple of hammered coins off, but didn't get any more

I got a couple of nice bits though!

My first Half Penny Token and my first Boy Bishop token!

Worth the day digging for sure! It looks lke the trade token should clean up pretty good.

"even Shaun came out"

The one that looks like a hammered is a lead Boy Bishop token!

Hi Shaun,
I am always glad to see your posts. Thanks for taking the time and trouble.
That is a nice group of artifacts you have there. My questions are: How long did you have to spend in the field to find everything pictured here? Do you have a technique that would benefit any MD'ers wherever they might be field hunting?
It looks like an all day job to me. I don't have the stamina to stay with it for hours at a time anymore. I hope maybe you will come across a big pot of old coins someday!
Congratulations, well done!
Phil

What is the coin in the upper right with the flower on it (a poppy, I think)?
Thanks

Re: where have all the hammered's gone

They will come back You guy's over there got busy here of late with alot of great finds! my favorite is the Half Penny also buddy! I'm guessing it's from the time frame of the Penny one I found as back when I was looking at them I noticed that they all seem to look alot alike the (halfs or penny).Anyway stay at it the hammereds could be on the next swing!
Take Care,
Pete!

The Half penny token is from 1668, probably a beer token
