Was a great week at the Bedford rally.
Thanks to Dave 2 Jugs we got huuuge land to work on.
Didnt find much during that week until the last day,finds just jumped up from ground.
I went out rather late in the afternoon to the far end of the camping field.Why I headed for that place I dont know,must been faith who played a trick with me cus when I started up the E-trac and searched I had a signal just a few yards away.
An iffy signal but two ways and deep too...
I was digging carefully and finally had the dry clod in my hand.Opened it up and out come this my first Roman silver denarius. I sat down on the field and just looked at the old silver coin. Called my brother and told him I finally got the coil over some ancient silver.
I went on detecting,and not far away another denarius was found.Deep as well,and iffy,maybe due to the
very dry ground.
I was stunned!!Couldnt believe it....
After that it couldnt possibly be more finds,but it continued to spitting up finds.
Next find was a part of a roman silver ring,after that a roman dress pin or hair pin in very good condition,sharp as it was made yesterday.
Had some other relics as well.It was a warm and sunny day on the field and I had one of my best detecting days for sure.
Im really looking forward to next years Bedford.Then I might bring a tent...
