Well done that man. You would have to be detecting very slowly as well as covering every single centimetre of ground to find that on your own first time out, or cover the field with 5 - 600 detecting at the same time to find it.

well, your first roman, with the spikes on his head!!!   ;D  is 3rd century, [250 to 300AD}, i'll leave it to the experts for a better ID!

i like the next one, with the very clear head, and look forward to learning about that one! It has the style of a 4th century coin
