Hi all
My latest hunt on the stubble field.
An unusual octangular pewter button.

A tiny brass padlock, the merc dime is for size.

Also a tap I would say early 20th century
I've soaked it in WD40 but its solid.

I love your English junk!!!!
It's so much cooler than my pie tins, pull tabs, battlecaps, and shotgun shells.

That is a great padlock ;) they seem to have character..... That button looks old to me, but you would need to ask Crusader or something.
Great finds, keep up the good work.

God bless
