    posted! Hoping your first coin is hammered! Be sure you have plenty of batteries... I hear you guys will be out detecting probably 10 hours a day.

    PS- I decided to try a parallel contest on YouTube.

    With a separate prize. By all means, enter that one too, if you like.

    Then subscribe to my channel if you wish, and stay tuned for the contest results and the England dig videos next month!

    A "hammie" sure would be nice! Yeah, I have heard some days are as long as 11 hours. Gotta tell you, in my current (morbidly obese) condition, five or six hours about does me in. A whole week of eight- to eleven-hour days is going to be a major physical challenge, not to mention the cold, wet, and muddy conditions I'm sure to encounter.

    But when I start diggin' hammered silver and stuff that's older than the few colonials I've dug over here, I imagine a lot of the aches and pains will be forgotten.
