:hello:

went back to our Roman Villa field today, the rape crop is no harvested and the stubble has been disced :headbang: to be honest wasn't really expecting much :'(

We spent a total of eight hours on this field today :( and it was a grueler :'( signals were few and far between, which took it's toll on my poor joints, but I managed a hammered coin of Edward1 :headbang:

A small broken Roman ring turned up, along with a broken Headstud Brooch, Michael my detecting buddy managed another 2 hammered ::) then I had this very unusuall piece :dontknow:

I am going to stick my neck out and say this could be Saxon :o to me it looks a bit like some sort of Knife, or Dagger pommel Cap, dipicting what looks like a bird either end :help:

Anyway have a look and see what ya think :coffee2:

What we did manage to find today was the floor to our Roman Villa :o

Best Wishes,


SS.

These pieces often have 'hidden' faces as well, so the first shot could be another animal/person

Must be part of a mural?

Depends really, if it was me that plastered that villa it could well be off the floor :D

I mean't off of the walls, with the different colours on the plaster it looks like it could be part of a mural!
