Half days in new forest only

Postby litrfree » Sat Jun 16, 2012 2:49 pm

Dears,

You can see any selection from two last Sunday morning. As standard, I have only short time for my hobby from many reasons: due work, family, and work and family. I have for this time one brand new location, what is for me place with pleasure. It is in the middle of nowhere. Nobody around is not. And about finds for you: The first is the silver Prague grossus with big lion, version (Czech Prague grossus collector association source) IL 4 probably, 28 millimetres, 3, 7 grams, silver. Story behind is: I did stopped in my return point after one hour swinging, drop down a detector (Vaquero with NL 11x8 this day), lit my Pall Mall, check a compass for fixing an azimuth back, looking around, nice day, and I did swing again in front of my shoes. Double signals. Better and any. One of them (It was digged second, better signal) was a piece of aluminium. And first, you can see on the pictures. Deep was 8 centimetres (3 and something inches only). Minted by: John of Luxemborough, The Czech king from 1310 to 1346 year. As a bonus from this trip, I had carried home a fragment of German Meritorious cross with swords the in the second class WWII, and Saxons Pfennings. They were lost in 1866, Prussian troops had manoeuvred there during Austrian-Prussian war. It is my opinion about that coins.
The second nice finds is German ID WWII, Reserve artillery No.15, number of soldier in regiment 301, blood group AB. It was done by my Tejon in SEF 12x10 look, lightly negative mode. Looks like “redressing” in May 1945. ID was broken, and distance between parts of this one was one and half meters. As a bonus, five meters back, I did hit a litter from this time.

Regards

Nice finds Litrfree. I love the old coins, some real history there. I also found a war merit badge on a POW camp here in England!
