Two Hammered Gold Coins In One Day!

In this hobby, you have both good days and bad days. On a recent dig with the Leicester Metal Detecting Society (LMDS) one of those good days came calling.

Two Hammered Gold Coins In One Day!

It was a cloudy but somewhat cool day and we had a few potentially good fields to detect on, together with a few that weren’t looking so good. One of these latter fields was covered in long grass and was considered by most as best avoided – but sometimes going ‘outside the box’ pays off, as we were to find out.

There were quite a few finds coming up right from the start. A gold posy ring, a few hammered coins, lead weights, lead artefacts and buckles. However, I was mostly finding junk and buttons. Suddenly we heard that someone using an XP Deus had found a gold hammered coin. I went over to look and found a very happy looking Martin. The smile through his beard said it all.
