Your bucket lister

[donutluvva]

For me personally i'd love to find a really early silver hawking whistle... Love to find one

[Moritasgus]

Personally, i would love to find a BA flanged axe head, which is very high up on my bucket list, an edward the confessor penny would be nice, and i wouldn't say no to an iceni silver unit!

[Showerfornhour]

Probably a BA spearhead or axe head like yours!

This! I would love to find a spearhead... for me it's not really about things that are worth money, it's the fascination of the journey that found items have been on. Thinking of how many hands it's passed through etc. Obviously, I wouldn't be against finding something of value, it might afford me a Deus II .

Finding Muhammad Ali's Olympic Gold Medal he claimed to have thrown into the Ohio River in 1960.

Not wishing to be greedy I would be happy to find an Oxford Crown, minted in 1644. It's an incredible piece of work and has to be admired even if you are not a Royalist.
I've yet to find a coin from this period but you never know.

Having only ever found part of a Roman Brooch. Would love to find one with enamelling, especially Blue.
Cheers,
Dave.

Any iron age coin, one with a horse on preferred !

[Makro 2]

I absolutely adore the medieval period in our countries long and varied history and for me there are two items at the top of my bucket list that I would very much like to find.

(1)... Heraldic Horse Pendant... shield shaped like
Rank 81's Avatar (stunning) ...I so want to find one of these.

(2)... Annular Pin Broach... like ianp's recent find...( also stunning )

So ...with fingers firmly crossed and in hope the Detecting Gods look upon me favourably...I will continue the quest.

By the way ...great thread ...Macsen Wledig

I’d love a Byzantine coin, gold or not, and would ever wonder about how it got to a field in Buckinghamshire. Vikings, mercenaries, Anglo-Saxons, all the tales it could tell, and the stories of wealth and fortunes won it had seen before being lost until I found it. OK, ideally Byzantine gold would be good, but any other metal would still get my juices flowing

[Stedlocks]

As an ex firefighter, a BA axe head…..it would go with my other axes!

[MrKeen92]

Due to living right by the capital of Mercia, absolutely anything viking would be a dream for me, but I think a decent condition sword would be unbeatable

[Moxey]

For me, it would be a Woad grinder.

[swansea jack]

I don't really mind what it is, but is significant enough to be on permenant display in a museum with a mention of my name and a little note on how I found it, nice to be remembered.

[ddave07]

For me, I've always dreamt of finding an Anglo-Saxon hammered

[Ringtop-grafter]

Any form of Roman brooch!

Over the last 3 years I’ve been very fortunate to find a Celtic gold full stater, Saxon Edward the Confessor silver hammered, 3 Roman coins 2 silver one bronze and around 30 hammered’s plus some very interesting artefacts but never had any form of Roman brooch, not even a fragment! But see them posted regularly on our forum
