1500 year old clasps and viking coin

[MisterTell]

In the film I say that the coin is by King Olav Kyrre, but it is from his father King Olav Hardrade 1046-1066.

The needle I think is Russian from the early 1800s after the discovery of Russian coins and seals, could it be a form of Fabri's egg?

Great video! As a Norwegian-American I'd love to hunt in Norway some day. Your finds deserve a Banner position in my book. Speaking of books, can you please message me the details of the book you had in the video? I'd liketo purchase a copy. Beste Hilsen, Erik fra New Jersey

Great journey in the fields once again. Congrats on the outstanding pin(If you have any updated info that would be great to read), and the silvers-especially the King Olav Hardrade 1046-1066.

Dude, I haven't been since my band in college (and my ponytail) in the early 80's, but thx for the kudos.

Not that different, really. The OP relic is missing a part off the top. The lower section is enameled cloisonne with filigree similar to the example I posted. It's the closest photo I could find in a short period of research, but I'm confident that is what it is. As suggested, it could be Russian, attempting to mimic a Faberge - which often have ornate filigree.
