Three hours at the Abbey field

[shaun7]

Hello all,

I spent three hours detecting on a field which i did for the first time a couple of weeks back!
Had some pretty nice stuff!

My best lead find yet, not sure what it's from, but i think it's religeous!
A trade cup weight (i think)
Decorated scissor handle thing (looks Georgian)
A jetton and a george 1 farthing
The last and best find was a tiny hammered coin! It's a Venetian Soldino 1486-1501 and it's in lovely condition

Heres my stuff

It's much too big for a badge, it's nearly the size of my hand

Gave my ears a good clear out

I was a bit confused about that as i've never seen anything like it, so i had a feeling it was foreign!
I found it on the colchester site
