New Land - Roman Site...

[CRUSADER]

This is a new permission field & we had a researched targeted Iron Age/Roman Site on it. Cru'dad had done a few solo hunts & only come up with about 5 scrappies, so today he wanted me XP it & see what happens. As it seems like a low value site, we were not expecting much, but deployed the usual gridding tactic, starting from the unknown working towards the known.
Ended up a worthwhile 4.5 hour hunt, with a little from every period; Iron Age, Roman, Saxon, Medieval, Modern.
We were expecting to strike it off the list, but its bobbed up a little to the top.

16 Roman Coins
Tudor Button
Crotal Bell
Tudor Buckle
Medieval Leather Mount
Medieval Horse Harness Hanger
Circa 11th C Saxon Mount - Shape of the Green Man - Rare early image, hard to photo
Lovely Roman Fibula
Roman Brooch
2 bits of Roman Bracelet
2 Roman Mystery bits
2 Hammered - Ed IV & John
Celtic Bronze Unit - circa 10BC - Tasciovanus, Bull reverse

That celtic bronze coin is cool! What is that ribbed thing pic #4 top left? Looks kind of like a belt hook?

I think you mean the really nice 1st C AD Roman Fibula (Brooch).?
