Title: New Years Detecting Resolutions 2OO9 . . .
Post by: Neil on January 11, 2009, 08:38:09 PM
What do we all want to find this year detecting in Wales?

I'll start the ball rolling - a plain old simple Crotal Bell! Any size, with or without clanger, any condition - I really don't care. Not even had a broken one or a sniff of one ever! Johnny and Mark know how much I want to find one!

I've been pretty fortunate since I started this hobby and knocked off the vast majority of the normal high on the wanted list artefacts and coins - except that is for a gold hammered coin! Give me a crotal bell and I'll be more than happy for 2009!

What does everyone else fancy finding? Be it a denarii, seal matrix, papal bulla, gold ring, pilgrim ampulla, groat, palstave, or even something more mundane. Let us know and lets see how we do! Only issue is that its got to be found in Wales!

We'll revisit this in 2010 and see if our wishes came true!

Cheers
Neil

As the end of the year is quickly approaching, I thought I would revisit our 2009 Detecting Resolutions to see how we were all doing.

I am more than happy to have met my resolution of finding a crotal bell (thanks to the help of Collegwent! ;D) I ended up finding two this year!

How has everyone else got on? You still have just over amonth to complete that New Years Resolution!

Give up detecting and go back to fishing. More relaxing. Whatever could go wrong HAS gone wrong on my return to the hobby.
