Description: Let's discover an old path together! Sometimes certain spots are drawing my attention. In this case I've spotted a path from below on my way to a different location and decided to stop. This approach isn't "practical" when you are on a longer hike, because every break is time and energy consuming. Nevertheless I often end up detecting a spot on my way, that turns out to be the better choice. Some things can only be discovered in the field and not at home on a satellite map. This path had it all, but it seemed "contaminated" with iron from the WWII era. Some targets mixed up together as the modern layer of soil wasn't even. As a result it was difficult to distinguish old from new. I happen to start this relic hunt right in front of a bronze object that somehow "felt" Roman (of course I could be wrong). The second part found further up this path indicated movement from this direction. Was it a path back then? Could it be related to a wagon that broke down while in motion? The surrounding area wasn't exciting. A short test revealed nothing but shell casings. Maybe my coil just couldn't reach deeper and the path with removed soil provided the only chance... The silver coin at the end came as a huge surprise. I really thought, it was a shiny washer... It was a great hunt, overshadowed by an incident that involved my beloved boar family. I hope, my loud metal detector wasn't causing them to move towards a hunter. Unfortunately it looked and sounded like that. One can only hope that he missed, or hit his foot! Thank you for watching. I hope you enjoyed this hunt. P.s.
