    silver coin hoard 1600.

    Hello guys i wanne tell you a story of my metal detecting buddy.
    He was on holliday this weekend in germany.
    At the last day he wanted to hunt on a field he saw.
    The grass was verry high but he desided to give it a go. :detecting:
    What then happends he's never dreamd of. :daydream:
    He find's a silver hoard of 14 coins from 1600.
    Some coins waight more than 30 gramm.
    The grass was verry high so it was deficuld to detect.
    Over 2 weeks he is going back to the erea.
    Enjoy the picture.
    Hope i write it correct.

    You wrote it correct,but your friend needs to be more careful digging the stuff. He hit a couple/three of them with the digger/shovel. Shame to see them like that as they are VERY valuable.Please be more careful and let us see more finds,thanks.HH......
