Hey there on the other side of the planet ! Haven't been here for a while. But I'm still keeping the coil to the soil, and did some stunning finds this week.
First I've found a golden pendant from the 17th century (1650) and it is 22 K gold with little crystals in it, unfortunately the plough hit it but still a great find. It was found on former ground where use to be a little castle in the 17th century. I will have it restored.
And then, the day before yesterday, I found this huge golden ring on a field. As you know, we live below sealevel. And the spot where I found this ring was used by former pirats like vikings to go ashore. This ring will be investigated by an archaeologist to be sure it is a vikingring, but we are 99 procent sure that it is the real thing. I will add picture of an ancient viking ring to compare.
Kind regards, Johan
