This is why I LOVE Metal Detecting! These little unexpected finds with detail and design that we simply don’t have these days!

Back out on the beautiful fields of Perthshire! In Bonnie Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 even if I don’t find anything I might get a Scottish suntan 🧴 in November! 🌞

JUNK turns out to be TREASURE! Make sure you give every find a double check, I almost threw this in the junk pouch!

Still up there as one of my favourite finds with the XP DEUS 2. This silver half crown might only date to 1910 but it doesn’t have to be old to be amazing! VOTES FOR WOMEN! A coin from the time of the Suffragette movement and a phenomenal piece of social history.

Currently with Treasure Trove in Edinburgh I’m hoping it will be claimed and go on display at my local Perth Museum in the near future!
