Hey folks, in my career as an metal detectorist I have found hundreds of lead roles and flat pieces of lead, but never with any writings on it. Weellll yesterday I found this.

It's a lead amulet from between year 1000 to 1536.

Wow, that's wonderful, and not the kind of thing we find over here in the states! Will you be able to figure out what is written?

Things like this is special, and special things like this belong in a museum. So, I am really confident that the national museum, will buy this piece from me. Then the national museum will try to solve what is written.
