Title: Great morning detecting - hammered and roman coins Post by: selectcase on October 13, 2014, 04:58:59 PM I had been detecting for a while on Saturday and set the alarm for early Sunday morning - 6.30 am the alarm goes off and I say to the wife " I think I will sleep in a bit" my wife says "get up - or you will regret it!" and turfs me out of bed so she can lie in a bit.
I am so glad she did - in a 2 hour hunt I found 2 hammered coins and 2 romans - one of the hammered coins must count as one of my best finds to date its a Richard III in lovely condition - I will post the Saturdays detecting later. if anyone can offer any further information on the hammered coins I would be grateful thanks. http://youtu.be/LMLLWUuisaA (http://youtu.be/LMLLWUuisaA) cheers will Title: Re: Great morning detecting - hammered and roman coins Post by: Dryland on October 13, 2014, 10:17:05 PM Great video again Will, well done on the finds, that hammered is a cracker

Title: Re: Great morning detecting - hammered and roman coins Post by: selectcase on October 14, 2014, 08:34:30 PM Thanks for the positive comments - its not easy holding the camera in one hand, digging, finding and coming up with a quick id but I enjoy doing it. I am well pleased with the hammered coins and will try to get out there again before the corn comes up too much.
