1] Early Medieval Gold ring

2] Vessica seal

3] Hammerd coins x 3

4] Victoria silver coins  x 6

5] George Silver coins x 7
 
6] Modern Gold Ring x1

7] Modern silver ring x 2

did you forget to put your roman coins on there dylan

[Dryland]

I told you before Justin, all the Romans around here were paid in Giros 

[Chef Geoff]

I've only been out 9 times this year which going back to 2011 wouldn't have even equated to 2 weeks worth of detecting that year I had 35 hammered and 127 Roman coins as my 12 month tally. But in the sense of productivity for hours spent this year's measly total of 2 hammered, 1 Saxon sceat, 5 Roman and 2 fibula is probably the best ever

[Dale]

Dylan your getting better each year 

[Dryland]

LOL Thanks Dale. But I still have to find  ANYTHING ROMAN 

[jcb (THE THIMBLE) jones]

well dylan if it's any consolation you have done far better than me ,my best find to date is a george the 2nd small silver penny ,and a gothic florin

[jcb (THE THIMBLE) jones]

Yes, it goes like that sometimes - I've found no gold at all this year, but last year managed 3 gold items, and the year before more (although they were in the same hole so, I'm not sure that counts) - have found 6 hammered this year (and a silver roman too), but for me the highlight of the year was a viking weight - basically a lump of lead with some inlaid bronze, but it's something that adds to the history of my part of Wales.

my first full year also and managed (after a lot of learning and still learning the minelab)   39 hammered 3 roman coins,  small roman statue,  roman ring and 10 mixed rings off the beach   as everyone else a mass of pre decimal
