I hunted today on fields. Conditions were more or less wintry. Temperature was 0C (32F) and there were almost 10cm (4 inches) snow. However soil wasn’t frozen yet, so it was possible to dig.



I found some old copper coins:


Öre 1720s
1 Riksdaler 1715
Öre 1630s
2Öre 1762
1Öre 1769
Öre 1630s

    Those are some great old coins you found.  Too bad there was so much snow, but it is always nice to have another chance to dig.

    Thanks everyone Grin

    Actually snowy conditions were not so bad. Mud didn’t stuck on boots and own tracks could easily seen Wink.   

    However it seems that our hunting season is over here in Finland  Cry. Weather forecast says that more snow and frost is coming.
