But its a fair drive away & with the dark nights we can't make it after work & the game will be over by Saturday. It will wait unless some of the people walking by (& there was loads down this lane) got wind of a good site. |

For Iron Age technology, I think they did pretty good. Mine was 5.34g & Dads 5.37g & they were suppose to be 5.4. Amazing for what the Romans called barbarians. (I do realise you meant off-centre, but it hardly mattered to them) |

These coins miles at least 40 miles apart. I did find a Celtic Silver & other Celtic bits in this field, so its hard to speculate at the moment. This was not only my thoughts on the previous coin but those of the UK Lead Celtic Coin expert, but its all guess work really. Unless it turns up in a ritual pond. After all these were not used as coins (as we know them to be used now), they were ritual, payment for political alliance between Leaders, or payment to foreign mercenaries. |

Finding a gold coin in an old field in England is like finding a needle in a haystack....it's painstaking work, but if you work at it long enough, you will find the gold, just like you will eventually find the needle. It's all a matter of getting the coil over the right ground at the right time. The only thing is....if you saw someone throw a needle in the haystack, you know it's there. In the fields where you hunt, there's gold(needles) here and there, but you really don't know where. It may be buried too deep in the ground out of detecting range, until the fields get plowed. It's tough, either way! Perseverance, Determination, Passion, Expertise, and a good amount of Luck are all the keys to holding one of those "Goldies" in your hand at the end of the day. Congrats to Cru'Dad for a most excellent gold coin find!! HH, CAPTN SE Dan |

I often wonder just how much we could have learned from these people had we truly "came in peace".

Yes it must be a top year for you all, congradulations are of course in order. The year is still not over, so we will be standing on our tiptoes waiting to see what you both find.

Exactly, it was top of my list for 20+ years. Now I'm optimistic & have put hoard at the top (but you can strike that one off). |

Just showed the farmer all the stuff we got from their land. We sacrificed the Celtic Silver Unit (less than 20 recorded & worth $300-$400) & Dad got out his cheque book again so the gold coin is now part of the collection |
