29 July of 2011 .... furthest fields from the valley of vineyards.

[HISPAN]

Hello T. Net friends!
Today have been six hours of hunting in the area furthest from the valley of vineyards, wanted to trace the remote limits for the future visits.
with a good two fields that I hunt got first Medieval buckle plate with the figure of a Woman (look at the shoes with pointed toes ..... it's amazing), this piece is my best find anthropomorphic of the Middle Ages, and later the ring with the stone still embedded (I think this ring is the 17th century ... but I'm not sure) at the end of the day appeared the coin of Emperor cucumber face ...
Not to much heat that the sky was cloudy but the rain did not come when you reach the furthest point of the valley, I visited a very nice small river, near a medieval castle and eat grapes ...

Update 30 July of 20011:
The buckle plate is identified as a Book Clasp , a Medieval Book closure piece .

Hispan how thick is your Buckle plate it looks more like a clasp for a Bible,
SS

that could make more sense

yes, you are right ... but that of a Bible? ... no religious representation.

Sometimes they show everyday scenes, but of course it maybe any book. (It was the clasp idea I liked)

Congrats on all your great finds!!
The clasp image looks just like those from early 'Illuminated Manuscripts'
Love the pile of old silver coinage

Hispan.....you really must hate us, guy.
First, you show us not just one, but, at least, TWO finds worthy of being banner finds. (the buckle, the ring).
THEN, you show us that great cluster of grapes.....WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?
Seriously, another great bunch of finds.....your finds are unique, giving us Americans a great insight into European/
Spanish history. For that, if for nothing else, we thank you. (Add to that the finds of other European hunters....
great, great, great!!!) THer's in the U.S. make me just as jealous......the historically significant finds of coins/artifacts
are truely amazing. Add to that finds from S.A., Asia, etc, and we all are fortunate for each other, and for the sharing
that we do, and for TNet, that enables us to come together and share,,,,,,and learn.
Great hunt, guy. Keep hunting/finding/sharing.
