Your nerves must be shattered after that. Is the press backing down yet? Still camped on the sidewalk? Need a guarded escort just to go to the store?

I know how hard that can be. Congratulations on your find. Will you be publishing in The Journal History?

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

One should treat one's first md find as one treats one's first dollar earned in a new business venture.   Smiley

THANKS GUYS, Love the comments.
 Had another look, it is aluminium, 1 1/2" long, 3/4" wide, 1/16" thick with a 3/16" diameter nail hole. Looks like a broken end bit from a piece of strapping or the like. Anyway it is obviously of major archaeological importance and I will have to guard it with my life.
P.S. I don't think the press have caught wind of it yet.
