We had the privilege of surveying a field that has been disturbed by new drains being installed and power-harrowed afterwards.
The result was 8-acres of ultra flat field surface to detect on.
Luckily, we had the roller lines to follow so it wasn't too bad to keep in-check.
This field produces lots of small fragments of lead and a small amount of C13th to C14th pottery. Today was no exception.
The first of thirteen hammered coins appeared after 5 minutes of tuning-in the machines using V4, standard GMP and the 13" coils.
Three denarii were also recovered and two may have been broken as votive offerings.
Medieval pottery was also collected from the field surface.
We left the field with another 33% to cover at a later date.
High Definition images of the items recovered can be seen here.
