Two hoards and treasure find
Two hoards and treasure find
In 2020 after first lockdown I went out on my only permission as I had only recently started the hobby. Considering the permission had detectorist on it for 10 years I found my first hoard 3 early middle bronze age palstave axehead. Then two weeks later a 1450/1550 silver religious devotional heart pendant then a few weeks later a scattered hammered coin hoard Edward 1st, 2and and 3rd 20 pennies, 2 groats and half groat all still in the treasure process.
