It was a cool day in December, our last dig before Christmas. I took a very large chocolate coin with me to play a joke on our Chairman, Richard Amiger. It was a quiet day with not many signals from me. Around mid-day I saw Richard about 30 yards in front of me so decided to walk over to him to show him my large gold coin that I would tell him I found in the field. As I neared him, I had a bleep in my headphones so started to dig it. 4 inches down in a field the clubs here had done for years I discovered my first gold coin. A quarter stater of the Durodriges tribe. 100BC and in near mint condition. I ran over to him and explained that I was going to show him the chocolate gold coin but have found a real one!!! It was the best feeling in the World!!!!
