1st Fav Field - Day 3...

[CRUSADER]

Spent 2 hours completing as much as we need to bother with on this field (about the best 80%), it seems even after this deep plough all we are left with is 5mm lead pieces & iron nails. (10 years of a good clearance job) However, we did get a few nice keepers:

3 Roman Coins
1 Lead Token
OK Georgian Buckle
18th C Clog Clasp with Crown & GR (nice touch for one of these)
A nice crude Kings Head Medieval belt mount
A mystery Bronze heavy duty piece which 2 fixing points & a hole at the top (Roman I think)
Cherub Decor - Georgian furniture piece I believe

Great looking finds Cru.
Love the Georgian Buckle and this item . . .
I wonder if it had something to do with holding the
horses to the wagon or the plow?

Just two hours .... should hunt more. .... I like.

Not quite strong enough for that kind of work, but I guess it could of gone on the side of a hanging bowl to hang it up

Like the clasp! I've seen it in silver too.
