Wow I can't imagine how it must feel digging up more than one coin at a time. maybe it will happen to me this week ;)
Its better out of the ground and in your hand for the history or monetary value rather than left in the ground to rot doing nothing for anyone.

Same from me, keep on doing those great posts! I would LOVE to get over there and experience your beautiful country. It must have some very interesting history? I went to evening class for a short while to learn asmall bit of Swedish as I needed to do a welcome speech for a large group of Swedish judoka visiting Ipswich and they really appreciated my 2 mins of basic Swedish!
Norway, Sweden and Denmark seem to have very little difference in the speech, Liam ::g

Thanks againe.. It is much easier to talk - specialy after some hours in good company.. But if you do a different language, in writing, you allso have to do some kind of readable spelling.. Like I always says.. You are all welcome MD or not.. I dont have much Old history, but 114 square KM of nature.. Pop by and we do a BBQ and a cold one..
