The times WHRADA have done Chew Valley area over the years.

Watching earlier TV Lisa said a guy brought her a coin for ID which she did and the rest is history.

That being the case others must be in for a share.

Good luck to them as they are dedicated detectorists.

HAPPY Hunting,

They are a match made in Heaven are Lisa and Adam. So unassuming, and so talented. Well done you guys.
I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.

Somerset has yielded some exception finds in the past including "Alfred`s Jewel".

Taunton Museum is worth a visit when traveling to Devon and Cornwall, as they hold 2 massive famous Roman coin hoards.
