sarkany Pillar of the Community Canada 864 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 6:02 pm From the land of the Bluenose...just a few photos of the finds from my UK trip. Everything from circa 50AD to modern as the venues from dig to dig varied. Have been approached to write an article for a UK treasure mag which was unexpected....working on it!

Sap Moderator Australia 16860 Posts	Posted 09/11/2010 04:07 am The gold coin is a quarter-noble (face value at time of issue of 20 pence) from the reign of Henry V, 1413-1422. Listed in Spink as number 1756, a subtype of Class C with annulet to the left of the shield and a mullet to the right. See this page on UKDFD for other reported Henry V quarter-noble finds. Not a common coin at all. This Nobles (Australia) Auction in 2007 had a similar type for sale (item #708), which sold for AU$1300. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
sarkany Pillar of the Community Canada 864 Posts	Posted 09/11/2010 07:30 am From the land of the Bluenose...hunted a variety of venues in the UK. Feel for those bouys as hunting spots are at a premium if you have no farmers fields to do. Used my 22 year old Garrett Freedom 3 plus and felt under gunned to the machines they swing over there. Happy hunting all and great to be home and will be going back next year for 2 weeks again. Report this Post to the Staff
