RE: Found a "11th Century stirrup mount fitting" I wonder who the mounted warrior was that it belonged to?
What a lovely find! My son has recently got a metal detector. His best find so far has been the handle of an old tin bath!
My grandad used to use a metal detector. He found all kinds of cool stuff and tons of coins! He always had a treasure to show us from his hunting!
Nice you should follow his footsteps :) i have also found lots of coins which i will probably post sooner or later. Good luck if you do decide to go treasure hunting.
Hi, tell your son not to give up, i found plenty of not so valuable things. Probably 9 out of 10 signals i got, that i then dug up were trash. But if you keep at it, it does then reveal from time to time something that makes the hobby well worth it.
Peace.
Thank you - we certainly will continue. He's quite excited by his growing collection of random bits of rusty metal......to go along with the stones, fossils and sticks......(that I can't resist bringing home either!).
