Hi friends
Long time no see :)
I did not hunt much lately,but here i am again,with new super machine Minelab E-Trac.
In just two days,actually maybe 5 hours i found all this silver medieval coins (among them is one rare broken roman-it is Emperor Diocletian argenteus coin) and one medieval bronze ring.
After 10 years using a White`a detectors.....Eagle Spectrum,DFX it was a time for upgrade.Still have DFX but as back up detector.
The most important thing is that i found this coins in very hard ground,in dusty roads overrun by tractors littered with trash.And yet among all those foils,nails,cans,large and small irons,pull tabs and leads i did not wasting my time digging some iffy signals.Nope
I was waiting for a low repeatable sound and 12-05 number on E-Trac display.And every time i get that it was a small silver coin.Only two times i dug small foils that looks like coin.

Marcus, :congrats: on getting those great coins. Can you put some years (dates) on some of these coins as us on the other side of the pond love seeing the history that you folks dig up over there.

Those tiny hammered are about 1200-1600 year,and also the ring is from that period,and truncated Roman is III century.
Did not date one by one yet
