Hard going on that maize stubble. thanks wal and Chris, yes it was tough, i had never encountered 'weedy' stubble fields before it was an eye opener! i will ask the farmer if we could possibly go on his pasture fields at some point this winter, i'm not sure if he rents them or owns them but worth a try i feel Title: Re: club dig 22nd november Post by: jimjoiner on November 22, 2015, 10:00:26 PM Thanks for organising Andy. Had to leave early. Got a chest infection. Shouldn't of been their really but was so desperate to get out. Couple of musket balls and a battered old coin . not worth a picture. Thanks again.

Title: Re: club dig 22nd november Post by: wagis on November 23, 2015, 06:50:34 PM nice coin Andy well found, had a good day didn't find much but had a nice 1936 florin in good condition, haven't had time to clean my other bits yet. Jason the stubble was really hard going in some of the fields as there were a lot of tall weeds growing and a one point I sunk well past my ankles in the soft mud as well but still a good day out
