07-06-2010/Medieval mount and more finds.....

HISPAN · Jun 8, 2010

Hello friends! Yesterday was a tough day, with lots of sun and people browsing in my hunting area. to drink more than one Liter of water and shelter in the nearby forest (for a couple of hours dozing in the shade), although it served as nothing and suffered a heat stroke ... but nothing serious, I'm still alive and ready to go hunting tomorrow ..... :laughing7:

At the end I could find a beautiful and valuable Bronze Medieval Sephardi mount the centuries (14th / 15th), a coin of the kingdom Isabel II of 1868 (the first in my collection and very well preserved), A Silver King Alfonso XII, Three pins of the 19th century and stuff .....
Greetings! :hello:

I can not more ... this Sun kill me ... keep in mind that I live in Northern Spain and in the South (where you have to spend the holidays) makes a lot more heat, be careful and put it Solar protection to their children, not out to hunt alone.
Greetings !!

Might of done, but they fled the Nazis from Austria, so maybe the link is a little tenuous

If this finding is very interesting, I have some similar mounts of the 17th century but this is more archaic and has to be before 1492 that is the date of the expulsion of the Sephardis of Spain.

If the Europeans are all related ..... my ancestors were Celts who came from the North, Romans of the East, Andalusí of the South and Sephardis ,and my son to expand the portfolio is 50% American..... an explosive mixture. :laughing9:

Nice Jewish Mount. Looks like it may have been mounted in stone?

At first I didn't get what you were talking about. Now I kinda see the Star of David on the mount.

These symbols were also used in the saddles of horses and bronze ornaments that protected the covers of the books (as the Bible and the Torah) ... also in the doors of the houses .... etc
