Nice finds. It's been a couple of weeks since I got out so I'm looking forward to the next time. I am hoping that Marlborough will surprise me one day but I still have a couple of sites I have permission to hunt on so I need to go back to them. The Council here has banned all detecting in public council run areas.

Nice one! With a bit of luck it wont take 3 more years for the second one!. A mate of mine has found a gold sovereign but never managed a half crown. Go figure.
And now....On sandy beaches and muddy soil, rings and coins await my coil!
