These are this afternoons finds. Three more hammered coins. A tealby cut quarter Henry II, 1158-80. a short cross cut half, and a broken hammered of Elizabeth I. The best find though, had to be this medieval decoration, in the form of I think a lions head. Probably 13th/14th century, after all those centuries it still looks great. Robert.

I like those types of leather mounts, the faces, either human or animal hardly ever turn up.

Cool find. Must be a lot of closeted banner-voting Medieval lion head aficionados among us.
