I decided to give the medieval field a rest yesterday, and headed a few miles away to an early roman site. This field is currently cultivated and to be left until spring the rain has weathered the ground down quite a bit so detecting is pretty good. My last couple of visits to this field had not revealed much however this is the result of 4 hours search; believe it or not I only dug a dozen or so signals and the first of which was the Silver Durotrigian unit (geometric type)  it came out just below a badger set probably disturbed by them? So long may the badgers dig here, the bronze stater came out a good depth which the trusty Deus had no problem locating. You will see the pottery has a bit of samian and some Iron Age coarse pot Smiley

Hi David the Deus has no problems knocking them out mate, some of the minuscule scrap bronze and lead amazes me still! obviously your not going to knock them out at great depth but then no machine would, I've had most of the minelab range over the years and my experience is the Deus has the edge Wink as I said it is my experience others mite disagree  Roll Eyes Wink
