    Went for a detecting weekend to france again.

    A week ago went with my buddy's for a detecting weekend.
    We rent a medieval house on a big hill top.
    The weather and the location was perfect.
    Unfortunately not all fields where free.
    We didn't found a lot of old finds.
    Found a medieval buckle plate.
    Silver dubbel tournois 1300.
    Silver napoleon1812.
    And a lot of coins 1850-1900.

    Next gear we go for a new area in France.
    Greetings.
