Another field is just ready to be planted, so I went there using that may be the last possibility to research area next to the location of near bronze time settlement discovered couple of years ago. Nevertheless, no so old relics were found. Unusually many lead seals from farmers and mills, some buutons and coins. The upper right copper coin looks very old, but it is under oxides and I should somehow clean it.

Ok, again the same, but I like this yellow colour ;)

As well as that green - copper coins of that time - 1920s are always in the bad shape, but a few coins have unifirm patina which makes coin more attractive.

ONe more rare find As-bronse button (there were 2 main items on such buttons - one is flowers and another is horses...

And finally some animal which is trying to eat something which looks like part of snake of fish, and judging on the face of that animal, this food is not very good. :) . Another version is that this animal broke itself onto 2 parts and one ate another. Brass.

Thanks for viewing and HH

Really Nice....That looks like it was a handle off a pitcher or some type of ewer. Cool stuff!

I think the story goes that the dragon or beast or whatever, swallowed himself and disappeared! ;) Monty

Nice finds Sand, I always like finding the lead seals! The dragon looks like it may have been a reign guide for a horse carriage. Sorry I had to back out last Sunday, too many things to do at home. Good you got out and HH, Mike

Re: A lot of heavy metal yesterday.

Just small update - occasionally I met a picture of sabre. Look at the hilt, it it is not exactly what I have found, but looks like my dragon came from some cold steel - probably not from sabre but something smaller....
