Hello friends! :hello:

Today hunting for four hours in the vineyards, with a very sunny and nice day , plus I hunt a coin of the Napoleonic wars of the year 1813 :hello2:

(these coins were made with the bronze of the guns stolen from the troops of Napoleon made were in my town), also a Maravedí of King Fernando VI, this coin is in perfect condition despite being over 250 years

and are hard to find in my area.
Also I have a 17th century religious medal very nice. :thumbsup:

Greetings!

BANNER! Wonderful finds, beautiful photos of them and of the vineyard, plus a fascinating historical background given for the 1813 coin. I'm voting BANNER for your 1813 Napoleonic Wars - Shield of Barcelona coin! As always, I enjoy your posts the very most of all. Andi

Hello MaineRelic!
It's the same camera to photograph, but cut out the pictures.
The findings are not very spectacular because I lost a lot of time in an unproductive field.

Hispan my friend!!

very nice ferndinand and love the napoleonic coin, they are in perfect shape

Also the pendant is very nice

the thimble I think is earlier, is not from the arab times? I saw a post somewhere were they had a lot of the pointed thimbels, and they were saying it was arab. I researched a bit and have seen many pics with that shape of thimble

Hello mate !
not have Arabic letters on the bottom and is smaller than the Nazaries Thimbles .... Therefore a Christian , the Nazaries unable to enter these lands, (particularly in this place was the border), but completely dominated by Christians, for this reason I do not find many Nazaries relics . :dontknow:

Nutriasub · May 15, 2011

Ok, not Arabic, but its not late medieval, its for sure XIV century!!

Congratulations, I do not have any thimbles that old!! :thumbsup:
