Title: Boys day out! Post by: falcon. on March 13, 2010, 06:55:18 PM Hi guys out again in the same fields that i found the spanish coin the other day, My sons and i were armed to the teeth with detectors, shovels,headphones and our find bags ::). throughout the day finds were buttons, buckels,lead and lots of cartridge ends but only two coins were found, one is george lll shilling which is forgery :( and the second is a nice silver hammie, i don,t know what it is but i can see the crown more to the left side and the person looking more likely to the right i might be wrong! ??? If anyone know what coin it is or doc can help me.Here,s the pics of my boys holding the mystery hammer ;)

And more importantly, saving a bit of history whilst their at it. Good on you lads, very nice finds too Salty :) Title: Re: Boys day out! Post by: The Doc on March 13, 2010, 08:10:49 PM Well done. The hammered is a Mary groat. This is the right way round:

Theres lots in those fields and all undetected before - I'm confident theres something special going to come up. We've already had a medievil quadruple seal,milled silver ,a hammered coin and lots of unusual artifacts. Watch this space ;) ;) can't wait to hit the fields again Well done lads ;D ;D a great and memorable day out. :D Title: Re: Boys day out!
