Real History in Your Hand

Sometimes when you go out metal detecting you find some pretty cool stuff. I found this on my last trip to France. It is a 3rd Century Roman Fibula (clothes fastener). It is decorated with a special 5 mark design. The 5 marks represent the 5 wounds of Christ. Christian Romans wore such things so they could recognize other believers.

Very cool and historic find. Just never know what that next signal will be.
