Title: Ooops Another One
Post by: celticspikey on August 19, 2015, 09:19:56 AM
Sorry the Deus is tuned in to these Denari at the moment this one is an early one of Trajan, and a nice example at that. Also had the lovely little 2 nd century brooch with traces of gold inlay, this type is a first for me and I haven't seen it before! these coupled with the grots, hammered and the buckles and pennanular brooch made for an excellent 8 hr search. This field has been searched many times in previous years however it was with the  Minelab Soverign and Elite, but I have to say the Deus has opened this field up and annihilates the performance of the Minelab, probably due to ground and Iron conditions.  ;) ;)

At this rate you'll have to just go out detecting all the time :)

I sometimes wonder if find rates are different with different machines because you discrim out more or less? - I found with my minelab that I used to miss many items because I only dug certain signals. If there were more signals left on the farm I detect on, then I would be digging more (I've even dug up the minerals). I found much less with my Deus than with my ETRAC - it's quite possible I wasn't used to it - it also had the 9" coil, compared to a 13" ultimate on the ETRAC......when it worked, I was digging more things (perhaps different things) with my GM4, but again they were things I would have found with pretty much any other detector - and certainly I've not found anything on my hoard field since I cleared it with the ETRAC......apart from all the hot rocks of course :)

Anyway you Trajan is this one:-

Trajan Denarius. Struck 103-111 AD. IMP TRAIANO AVG GER DAC P M TR P, laureate bust right, drapery at shoulder / COS V P P S P Q R OPTIMO PRINC, Dacia standing with bound hands before pile of arms, DAC CAP in exergue

(or a variant)

would need closer pictures of the hammered to comment much on them.
