A very wide date range of finds in this post all from local farms.
I'm now well into the grass only fields with all the fields being seeded now. I did manage to search a couple of fields in stubble before they were seeded.
The grass fields will be ripped up end of April next year and be planted with maize. Thankfully local ground frosts will keep the grass short.
My thanks to a UK forum member for the ID's on the silver coins and the Roman coin.
Thanks for looking.........Doug.
