    Re: Scottish hoard found

    As one of the folks in the video (hi-viz jacket), it was a special thing to be a part off. Around 20 hammered pennies were found, mostly Edwards but a couple of Scottish and one Irish also came up. My trusty Explorer SE found a Scottish penny still to be identified. The organiser, Colin (Toddy) Irvine, asked that the coins be kept together rather than risk the publicity given to the recent Sovereign hoard when finders walked of with their finds. They will be submitted to the Scotiish Museum as TT. I'll keep you posted as we are returning next week. Doubt if much more will be found but I'll have my big Excelerator coil on!

    Heres some pics
