not much of a hangover today so decided on a few hours swinging on the stubble field, new land so had a spring in my step  Cheesy weather dreadful but decent mix of coins came up.

1961 QE2 penny (only my 2nd one)
1758 isle of man half penny (first one)
George V penny date crusted over
William 3rd half penny date unreadable
Victoria 1887 half penny and 2 unreadables

hopefully more to come too.

For a first trip to a new field thats not bad, early milled coinage is a good sign of some possible decent finds Wink keep at it.

thanks very much for comments, yes looking forward to returning there Dale in better conditions. Welsh John yes that is always the way it seems, i got a good soaking but i do not mind it so much, its when temperatures are close to zero AND soaking which gets me.

good luck to anyone who ventures out  Cool
