Finds from a reseeded grass field and a stubble field.

Deus Fast (V2) but for the want of a change I lowered the frequency down to 12 kHz's, 9" coil used.

12 kHz's, did it make any difference, I like to think so, can I prove it, not sure I can.

Thanks for looking.................Doug.

"Avoirdupois: A system of weights based on a pound of 16 ounces or 7,000 grains, widely used in English-speaking countries.

Origin.

Middle English (denoting merchandise sold by weight): from Old French aveir de peis ‘goods of weight’, from aveir ‘to have’ (infinitive used as a noun, from Latin habere) + peis ‘weight’."

Thank you.

You sure find some amazing stuff Doug, I'm gonna make it across the pond one of these days, Congrats on another fine hunt!

Thank you. I'm sure think I can find a field or two for you.

That's some really old finds! You have yourself a really great place to detect.

Thank you although today I was on top of hill hunting with a chill factor well below zero(C), it did not seem a good idea at the time although I came away with a Charles 1st (1625-49) silver coin.

Thanks for sharing Doug, very nice finds!

Thank you.
