Very strong signal Alan, i have a minelab quattro and it was very loud.I am very new to detecting and did not think it was anything much and it was Barny who said it was a very good find, well pleased with it.

Great find.  Hope you had a good search around the find spot.
It could be part of a hoard.

I just did a normal search, because i did not think it was an important find, and the grass is very long now so i will have to wait for it to be cut and try and find the spot again.
