Title: Out with Ray, Ray and Gavin.
Post by: Tafflaff (Rob) on January 18, 2010, 11:28:08 AM
Out yesterday with Roman Ray , Saxon and Viking. This trip has been doomed to failiure and had let  them down a couple of times previously....Damn spinal athritis!  :-[ .  Any way decided to go after all and managed a few hours.

Got my first ever Florin (silver)  Sixpence (silver) And button  (silver)   another First for me , a real silver button, had a grotty Roman that I can just make the bust out on.

Also had enough 303's to launch World War iii , musket ball, bag seal, loads of buttons and some Georgian Coppers

Any idea on what the dice looking thing is. Its flat like a scrabble piece and has the 5 dots either side.
