indy Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Join Archaeologist & Historian James Balme as he returns to the fields of Cheshire as Spring finally arrives for 2010. Even after 15 years of research across this ancient landscape James makes a discovery within minutes of arriving back at the ancient settlement. A hammered silver coin is revealed in a great state of preservation and dating from the Early Medieval period of British History. Yet another exciting piece of the historic gigsaw of Cheshire has been recovered by James !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 What a great and interesting way to spend todays 'sunny' Sunday Certainly beats gardening and jet washing :lol Indy... when you find your wonderful artfacts do you have to tell anyone and hand them over or are they yours to keep unless of course they are classed as 'treasure trove' material. Fascinating stuff and you must get a lot of 'job satisfaction' from your work unlike most of us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy Posted March 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I report all important finds hun, I get to keep most of them unless declared Treasure and put in a museum, worth remembering that the coin featured in the film has remained buried for almost 800 years until revealed for the first time today, that coin was buried until a few hours ago, and yes a great satisfaction finding it !!! History revealed almost live !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
