Around the traps with the sovereign

[Sandta]

Stopped at a spot on the way home yesterday
No florins , Not even a silver
But got this ....

 

[Ramjet]

Very nice Sandta. The detail of Britannia is I. Great condition.

 

[silver]

Is that the one we are all looking for at the moment for the forums oldest coin thread ?

 

[rocketaroo]

Nice, your oldest?

 

[Sandta]

Im not sure , on both counts :8 Silver and Rocket
It is in pretty good clean condition ... I was surprised
All ive done is water and toothbrush

 

[Goldpick]

Nice patina on that one, you can leave as is, or give it a soak in some olive oil - love those old pennies.

 

[Sandta]

Had a day off today .. Back to work tomorrow to start my 'on call' roster
So got out for a couple of hours around lunchtime
Organised to meet up with LonelySilver... A very competent switched on young man
Im not going to spoil his glory but will say am anxious to see his video
I certainly enjoyed his company and even learned a few pointers

Always happy to find a florin

Nice finds Sandta. What are you doing digging up my florins?

 

[Jaros]

I think 1895 was the oldest so far.

 

[rocketaroo]

Sweet finds, love the guns Bloody florins, they pop for everyone except me lol Yep, Jacob is a very good detectorist, imagine how good in 10 years time!

1896 actually. We are waiting on an 1895 for the oldest coin topic.

None of them are MY spot. Apart from Rocket's honey hole. I owned that. 144 coins so far I think it is.
