We got home tonight just before 10pm after 12 hrs of detecting and dinner at a nearby pub. We're both beat and decided to not go through our finds and clean things up until tomorrow. Instead, we just want a hot shower and bed.  Why is it so tiring to have fun?  Go figure....

It was finally our day to break the silver jinx.  I found a milled silver but won't know exactly what it is until we get it cleaned up.  I suspect a George V but we'll have to wait and see. I also found a beautiful lead bale seal (like sealing wax for a letter, this is for bolts of cloth), and a small bronze Roman coin.  Clarence also found a George V milled silver six pence, a large bronze Roman coin and some buttons and greenies. Our friend Mike got top hunter award today for TWO hammies. 

We got sprinkled on a little today but it was raining hard when we left the pub and headed for home.  It was a better day for all of us today.  We can't wait to see what happens tomorrow!
