WINNER #1
My international favorite find for April 2019 is the B.C. Coin Matrix, found by Paul S. from the U.K. with his AT Pro.
Paul's story: Hi all at Garrett. Day started like normal. About 2 hrs into a dig with a group of friends I got a really strong signal on my Garrett AT Pro about 5 inches down found a peace of bronze with strange markings on one end. As this is my first year of detecting I was unsure of what it was I put it into my bag and carried on searching. A bit later on I showed it to my friends that's when the day went a bit crazy.
It was explained to me as very rare object used to make casting molds for bronze coins dating from 20 to 60 years bc.The rest of the day was a bit of a daze. It has now been recorded by a Finds Liaison officer as a find of national importance and the only one ever found in the England. The next stage is to the British museum for further research. Thank you all at Garrett for making this very special day possible.
Kind regards Paul

WINNER #2
My second international favorite find is the 1st-2nd Century B.C. Roman Gold Ring with Gem, found by Andrew F. from Europe.
Andrew's story: Hello Garrett Company! My success story is related to my favorite metal detector, Garrett AT PRO. He brought me many good finds and unforgettable emotions. In March 2019, on a plowed field, Garrett AT PRO brought me a unique find. After three hours of searching, the numeric identifier on the display showed 63 - 65. A rather interesting target, I thought. The signal was clear in both directions, despite the fact that the goal lay quite deep. Finally, I turned the third lump of earth with a spade and rang the cottage over it. The goal was localized.
As it turned out later, it was a gold Roman ring with a gem, which could serve as an imprint of the seal. Perhaps he was worn by a Roman legionary or a wealthy merchant, around the 2nd - 1st century BC. And the depicted pictures on it have a clearly mythological interpretation. I cannot convey in words the feelings during the discovery. I was just happy.
With best regards, Andrew F. from Europe
