Hoard of 3000 Roman coins found

  • on: January 29, 2016, 08:25 AM
Hi Guys, just want to share this link of a find in the UK. I always hear it from my children and wife that when they pick up a coin they always tell me they did not need a detector. I know that they are only joking but if you wanna find stuff you need one otherwise you must just be damn lucky like this guy that found these coins. Maybe one day we will find that hoard..... with our detectors

I do it the metal detecter way - swing it around like I just don't care.
