Managed a couple of hours out yesterday on a new field and out of my first hole this gold sovereign from 1872 popped out in absolutely amazing condition. My very first gold after all this time. Then followed a barrel tap, a couple of lead weights probably for fishing, a strange piece of furniture decoration probably Victorian and the usual bits and pieces. Unfortunately rain stopped play.
