Celtic Gold - a big ZERO
Roman Silver Coins - 1
Roman Artefacts - 5
Hammered Coins - 10
Milled Silver - 25
Silver Artefacts - 4
Gold Rings - 1

And hopefully a milled Gold coin of some description.

If we can keep this thread going we can all look back and see how accurate we were.

I will be honest with you Simon and I just feel happy getting out. Finds are a bonus but I would be happy with a cracking Gold Sovereign or anything Saxon.

well Ive had the detector a couple of months now and not found a thing,to tell the truth the weather has not been great and i was not going to venture out in the weather we have had lately.this year i plan to do alot more and maybe find a coin of any kind, i might even throw one on the floor and pretend i found it.but if any of you out there are looking for a detecting buddy in the herefordshire area give me a shout. i would love a day out detecting with someone who knows what there doing.i have a few farms here steeped with history to return the favour.Jon
