Pipster and Roman Rays cold morning out

« on: December 08, 2010, 10:36:41 AM »

06:30 scrapping ice from my totally frozen car Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr - 7.5 I must be mad Undecided

car loaded and two coffee's later I'm off down the M4 to Ray's for a mornings detecting, another coffee at Ray's and off we go to one of Ray's local farms ... Still -7.5, I put on my thermal suit ( not a pretty sight ) but hey it made Ray laugh Grin

and at least I was warm Wink

So into the fist Field and first blood to Ray a George II half penny ( I think ) then a nice old button and two more coins, Sad

Was my E-trac working) Back to the car for yet another coffee and a bite to eat.
Fed and watered into the second Field ....... Bingo my first coin of the day a 1922 penny, Then a lovely British rail button, the finds just kept comming 9 Pre decimal in total, Ray shouted me over to see a very nice buckle Wink

Then the unmistakable sound of silver, A silver tea spoon in super condition.
A great morning's detecting had by all.
And the best thing I didn't have to take any more naked photos of Ray Grin

Nice going both and well done on getting out let alone being able to dig through the permafrost. How old was the spoon?
