Out with Ray today on a new field of his in Barry. All I can say is it was a disaster for me from the word go. I forgot my Coffee, Forgot my water and forgot my Battery
Remembering Proconsul lived a short way away I quickly phoned him and he came to the rescue by loaning me his explorer battery. By the time I got back to the field a despondent and already very tired looking Roman Ray came trudging across the field towards me. The field was heavy ploughed and full of foil.
Change of plan and we headed off to one of my farms that had proven in the hammered stakes time and again.... Sadly it was not to be. We gave it our best shot and the last count was nearly 40 buttons between us, double that in pieces of white lead, Ray had a shilling and a few more coins. I managed to get a speccy buckle one or two coins and my first ever Apostle spoon
Peter any chance of telling me which Apostle and the age of spoon. Also why it says silver on the reverse when its plainly not.
