Great fields in North Worcestershire 7th November 2026

We were back at an old favourite but to new fields. We arrived with expectation in good numbers and we weren’t disappointed. The weather was great (well until we sat down for lunch and realised it was quite cold and we needed to get moving again), the digging was fantastic, and the company was as excellent as ever. 

There were plenty of finds: hammered coins, other coins, grape shot, farm tokens, buttons and buckles, and a silver ring among them. 

There were some stand out finds, as well, and after nominations and a vote, the following results were in.

In joint third place were: 

Scott’s charming lead lion mount 

And Heath’s lovely gold ring - and did he do a wonderful gold dance! Congratulations to Heath for the gold find that would usually have topped the vote but this time there was stiff competition.

In second place was Sean’s amazing Edward VI shilling - a huge hammered coin in remarkable condition!

But in first place, by a significant margin, was Sarah’s exquisite fibula. Large, complete and beautifully decorated. Congratulations Sarah!
