Now the end of 2014 is near, it may be interesting to list some of this years best finds. For me it's :-
 
1] Early Medieval Gold ring

2] Vessica seal

3] Hammerd coins x 3

4] Victoria silver coins  x 6

5] George Silver coins x 7
 
6] Modern Gold Ring x1

7] Modern silver ring x 2

did you forget to put your roman coins on there dylan

I told you before Justin, all the Romans around here were paid in Giros  ;D ;D

I've only been out 9 times this year which going back to 2011 wouldn't have even equated to 2 weeks worth of detecting :'( that year I had 35 hammered and 127 Roman coins as my 12 month tally. But in the sense of productivity for hours spent this year's measly total of 2 hammered, 1 Saxon sceat, 5 Roman and 2 fibula is probably the best ever ;D

Dylan your getting better each year  ;)

LOL Thanks Dale. But I still have to find  ANYTHING ROMAN  ???

well dylan if it's any consolation you have done far better than me ,my best find to date is a george the 2nd small silver penny ,and a gothic florin

oooooopppppssssss nearly forgot MY ROMAN coin and  ROMAN brooch  ;D ;D ;D ;D

SHUTUUUUP lol, that florin is a cracker though, I want one

My first full year detecting and it was a golden one
gold ring 1870
gold hammy Edward111 quarter noble
gold milled    james 11 guinea
silver hammys x 5
love tokens, thumbles, copers galore.
brass georgian cannon, lead and buttons by the ton.

What a fantastic hobby this is and yes this is probably
going to be my best year for a long time to come.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS to all now get out and dig some holes

Yes, it goes like that sometimes - I've found no gold at all this year, but last year managed 3 gold items, and the year before more (although they were in the same hole so, I'm not sure that counts) - have found 6 hammered this year (and a silver roman too), but for me the highlight of the year was a viking weight - basically a lump of lead with some inlaid bronze, but it's something that adds to the history of my part of Wales.

my first full year also and managed (after a lot of learning and still learning the minelab)   39 hammered 3 roman coins,  small roman statue,  roman ring and 10 mixed rings off the beach   as everyone else a mass of pre decimal 

Did some one say that Dryland is Barron of any Romans this year  :o

this year , last year and the one before  :D :D :D :D :D

good year next year better bring it on

Oh dear Mr dryland,  :-D ;-)

here you go Dylan

to help you get started

So are you telling me Alan that if you got 10 Dylans in a room you'd end up with a Denari ?  ;D

Anythings better than his Asses   ;D ;D ;D

Alun , Alan and Rob You're all Gits ;D ;D ;D I'd have you know that I'm saving up all the Romans that I haven't yet found until
I find a hoard or is it a whore [ although either will do ] just don't tell the wife if I find a hoard. Alan thanks for showing me the page 3
of that Roman coin book ,but would you now return it to it's place on the top shelf among  the other  dirrrrty  publications.
                                                    One day lads I'll show you all my Asses ??? ;D ;D ;D ;D

Thou shalt not covet my Asses

Here we go again  ::)   Poor Dylan. It's a good job you've got a sense of humour. They'll be calling you Father Christmas next. :o

Come to think of it, you'd make a cracking Father Christmas. All you need is a beard. ;D  and a Roman coin. ;)
