THREE CROWNS, second and third hunts

[senda]

Hi all, folks.
I returned to the field of the Three Crowns twice more. I had left half of the plot without looking.

The tubes of ointment for cows and sheep were a real nightmare. Its detection range between 68 and 78 with many variations ... like coins, I think recovered over 10, is tired.

I found coins are all very damaged, but can be identified. One of 1745 and similar. Two impossible counterstamps and two coins 1870 y1877 to mourn. May musket balls, shoe buckle, an ornament of brass and a button the early nineteenth century. The trigger of a gun muzzle-loading is best, although I do not think I can identify.

A few days after I returned. I chose another plot next to the last. Many signs of iron and bottle caps cheap wine.

The results were so scarce, only a small coin, very spoiled and some veterinary waste. I changed the plot. I went back to the ruins of the chapel. The owner had retired yard trimmings and had a little more ground to look. I was right! a signal at 67 allowed me to recover a small coin 2 Maravedis of Philip III of 1601.

It has two overprints. The first, in the center, mark "IIII" (4 Maravedis) and "P" (Mint City Palencia) in 1603, doubled its value to 4 maravedis. The second overprint brand "VI" (6 Maravedis) "S" (Mint Ciudad de Sevilla) in 1638.

This was all in the area for now, I'll be there soon.

Thanks for looking

Wow, what a hunt. Those are some awesome finds. If those coins could talk what a story they would tell.

Very Interesting finds again! Perhaps some milkmaid had a gold ring slip off when applying that ointment?

Great pictures and write up of your hunt!

Thank you all. His words encourage me for next show.

Mud, I think just that each signal between 40 and 60. At the beginning of each hunting I dig several of these signs or when the signal is in an isolated area but it is always the same, pulltabs or ointment tubes. I have dug hundreds and hundreds. If I dig all those signals would be in some fields several days ... it's better to dedicate to plant potatoes ...
On one occasion I came to an orchard where the owner works. I talked to him and gave me permission to search. He told me that he had lost his wedding ring right there .... Wow perfect, we will find it. Where is was? There in the corner next to the metal fence is buried around the perimeter of the garden ... Can not bring the detector ... The owner still has the ring but burglar-proof orchard...

Senda, does someone live in that castle looking building, in the last picture? I could look at your pics all day, lol. They are always of awesome old finds, or beautiful countryside!

Garrett should sponsor a 'Global Pro Ransack' trip for us to go over to Senda's and camp out in that castle!...then, he can come over here and we can turn him on to some zinc pennys!

Upss! I'm sorry ... not a castle, is a church ... hehe
Cantabria is full of small towns like this a small nucleus of a few homes farmers, all made of stone, a fairly large church and one or more large houses of people of nobility, people who made their fortune in America or senior members of clergy. Then there are some population scattered in farmhouses. We are famous in Spain for ranchers, for our dairy cows, and one of the first producers of milk in the country. Formerly, the farmer had several houses in winter, where he shared space, his family and livestock. These houses were built of stone and wood, at different heights on the mountain. In the spring they made transhumance up according pastures were consumed and fall down in the village.
I leave videos and if someone wants more, just have to ask ...
