Feel free for ID

Very nice Al......you can stop now :D Edward III halfgroat ;)

And this one for me a deeep 17". I'd please

Bullhead sixpunce

The 2nd hammered coin is an Edward VI shilling (1547 - 53) ;)

Thank you Ben.  I thought it may be but I thought it was a Stuart shield.

And another just now, what a site this is!
A huge thank you to Deadlock for the invite.

Right cut it out you pair its gone beyond a joke now >:(

Sorry Geoff but it's a hattrick for me now. First ever, what a way to start the year.
I can't work out the mint though

Nice way to start the new year  :)

Wow! well done Ian that one is York mint, are these coming from a tight area (not the Edward VI)?

Not mine this time. Another for Deadlock
And this was from about 11" . Another score for the minelab

That's 4 Eddy halfgroats ??? that just ain't normal.....purse loss? hoard? :-\

Bally ell another for the Deadlock
This is getting embarrassing.
(All in the same field Geoff by the stream)

The first coin, more fully id' is this:-

EDWARD III 1361 HALFGROAT. Treaty period. London mint. Doublr Annulet stops on Obv. MM CROSS POTENT. S1621

Second one is in nice nick for an Edward IV:

1549 Shilling, Second Period, 1549-1550, mintmark arrow

The one I found was cream crackered, but it could have been an even baser 3rd period shilling

Last one looks like a Henry V York mint penny (mullet to left of crown).

A bit later than the 4 half groats - that it is a bit on the wild side - when I found a clump of coins there was only one half groat in there.

The other three half look to be earlier series (one of them looks like class C c. 1351 or so)

WOW where are you two detecting? cracking finds lads

Nice job guys, exciting stuff ;) ;) keep it up

I've heard of raining Hammies but come on Guys that's pushing it a bit.  ::)

 What a great outing you've had, like the 'on the go' reporting.   Well done all, bet you can't wait to get back.

Val

Well done both, what a start to the new year, great stuff  ;)

Another 2 more for me had five in total.

brilliant day out lads , well done to you both  :)

WOW! 5 certainly puts mine 3 limit in the shade ;)

Cheers guys.  Last dig of the day was a George 4 penny we  only came off the field cos it got dark and cold. Fantastic day super weather and again a big thanks to Al for the invite.

great days hunting, well done on the hammies  :)

what an awesome day you had, well done guys, ....... im still searching for that elusive first hammered but the way you guys are going there wont be any left to find lol  ::)

Here are the other 2 and a group pic.

gosh

well done lads -- but the downside is that i've no chance in finding that elusive groat ... u gone and got them all!!

a great day out .... i presume we can look out for " son of live dig 2"  tomorrow!  ;D ;D

great stuff keep them comming

Fantastic stuff there.

Great start to the new year lads'. That's what detecting should be about, esp the Edward shilling...nice. I'm off out to some new land myself in a bit but bet I won't be that lucky. Well done though.  :)

Unfortunatly it isnt as good as the photo may show, its been bent like a love token and the top fold is badly cracked and only just about intact.
Many thanks again for the detailed ID's on all the coins
Cheers Ian

What a day! Superb lads!

Because there are loads of Edward iii's coinage, maybe there was a medieval market or something ;)

well done ian and al some cracking finds a memorable day  :)

Thanks Phil yes fantastic day finds were very deep

What a hunt, well done both ;)

Chef I bet you was looking for chain mail :-\

Heres the Edvard VI cleaned up, another one off the wish list,
Still cant believe what a stunning day we had.

Nice one we all dream of a field like that !

wow wow wow wow wow!!!! brilliant you two thats beautiful to see.i hope they were local finds deadlock. ;) ;) ;)

Yes all from the hereford area

wallop nice one mate!!!!

Will get back into the field at some stage

It'll be fantastic to see what you find next time you go there - you don't fancy arranging a rally there now do you :D :D :D :D

Unlikely now to flooding, although the signals should be good nice and loud on the deeper ones.
