1936 May Day Medal and Roman finds

[Westfront]

Went out today for an afternoon hunt and was rewarded with a couple keepers. Got some musket balls, buttons, pocket knife, a very nice decorated Samian Pottery shard, two toasted romans coins, bronze bead, and the find of the day, a fragment of a roman glass bracelet. The May Day medal is of an other field i stopped by for some discovering.

Good your out again. I assume you knew the Bronze finial is off Roman Furniture?

Not sure on this. It is completely bored through with no remains of iron inside.

Yeah, that is a little unusual for these, but the shape is consistant.

Good to see you're out Lu. Maybe the back exercises worked? What is the bone (yellow) looking thing in next to last pic? Is the Mayday metal pewter? Good luck.

Hi Tim! That bone looking thing is actually nacre imitation on a pocket knife. These May Day Medals are made of aluminum. This on is in good condition for that.
