I couldnt beleive the condition at first when i seen the shine on it i thought another bloody button then when i started to wipe away the mud it dawned on me ive been proper dreaming of finding a piece of gold.I think its going in the searcher mag as the guy took photos of it from the searcher magazine.Mind there was a few gold coins came up glad we went.
