Here is a small gift I gave to the landowner of a permission a couple of weeks ago. I have had to 'shave' the photo down a lot to reduce size.

George V florin
Victoria Sixpence
3d of Victoria (I think)

The permission and other finds from the site can be seen on the youtube channel in my signature Grin

Always nice to see people showing thier appreciation to the landowner.
Well done Stanley. Maybe the next one you make will depict some earlier history.
I don’t s’pose you’d be quite so willing to part with your 1st hammy though  Roll Eyes

Hello Val, I was so desperate to find a hammy I had to resort to hammering my own...at the Newport Mediaeval Ship exhibition. It isn't quite the same  Tongue I have probably given away more coins than I have kept.

That particular landowner has thousands of acres under their management so I hope they will offer me more land soon. As it happens, they offered me the coins back as they were overwhelmed by them (their words not mine). I'd much rather they sat in their boardroom than in my poundshop compartment box though Smiley

If anyone out there wants to invite me to an ancient permission I wouldn't say no Roll Eyes

Hello Probono, the exhibition is worth a visit. I think they are planning on moving to bigger premises at some point...probably when they can rebuild the entire ship as some of the timber is still being dried out. A fair few artefacts and scale models. There are also information boards and things to keep kids amused. There are experts on hand for questions etc.

Stanley, if the landowner has that much land you need to be doing some research.
Somewhere out there you probably have some very old settlement. Have a look through British History on Line. Search for the area and you’ll find all sorts of info. Including old maps that will show footpaths, settlement, records of the Parish, Church records, population etc.
Amazing what’s out there. If you find an interesting area, within the boundary of thier land, ask for permission for that spot specifically.
If you think about it, all and any land is ancient. Someone’s lived and worked and died there many times over for thousands of years.
