I have had a famine on the silver front since June :thumbdown: . I’d got used to regular silver finds so it’s been a bit of a shock. However I have 2 new fields and they seem to like me :D

In my second hole out popped the first one. A quiet period that lasted about 30 minutes popped out the Lizzie sixpence and 4 hours later, almost back at the car I found my third :D That’s August sorted then :Party:

No idea what the two halfpennies are. Unless they are clipped pennies? I’m so tired the thought of going upstairs and studying Spinks is beyond the realms of possibility. I need my last ounce of strength to open the wine! :lol:

I agree, getting an ID from spinks is much easier after a bottle of wine, it just might be a tiny bit less accurate.

I’m rarely accurate anyway, but at least I would have had something to blame it on :rollinglaughing:

P.S. thought the lizzie was a sixpence, I rest my case :Party:

Well done Cath, although I must confess to be feeling quite envious! :thumbsup:

Enjoy your well deserved glass of wine ( I do hope it's red). :D
