Well, if you want to make the British flag appropriate, you will probably need a plane or ship ticket. ;D

Seriously, welcome to the forum and very nice finds. Were these in a house you bought here? Let us hear a little more story behind them. They appear to have some silver plate left on in places, or are they silver? As Woodland said, try to get some pics of the markings.

Wow! How about a pic of the lead soldiers!? Can you imagine something like that today? Here, let you little child suck on this chunk of lead!

You've got some really unusual and valuable stuff the BM! :notworthy:
Your silver finds are likely silver plate and date to the 1920's.
Best of luck with the rest of your dig! :icon_thumright:

Hope you don't mind that I re-sized your pics for you.

Dave
