Where to find the Gilt Pocket Compass

The Gilt Pocket Compass is one of the epic artefacts buried in FieldHunters, a free online metal detecting game. Hunters sweep a shared field with a metal detector, follow the signal and dig — and epic pieces like this one are among the rarest things that come out of the ground. There is no way to buy it: it has to be dug up.

About tools, weapons and everyday metalwork

Axe heads, blade tips, keys, buckles and ingots are the working metal of the past. Weapons and tools were valuable enough to be repaired and reused, so a fine example is a real find. Ingots were metal kept in its most tradeable form, ready to be cast into something else — wealth before it became an object.
