Another Dragonesque Brooch.

[Silver Searcher]

Today was supposed to be a look around day, just to check my main fields, and a couple of new ones Nothing had been ploughed , so I had a hour on a new field that had Wheat stubble some promissing finds came to light.

Anyway to save the day I headed back to were I got the Gold sovereign, it had been cut, but again Wheat stubble but I'd got a Hammered and a few Roman Bronzes the last visit

Managed a couple of Silver coins...no Hammered and four Roman Bronzes, then the supprise the top half of a 1st Century Dragonesque Brooch this is my second incomplete brooch, and our fourth in two years from this area

The one in the link, is one that my detecting buddie found last week and it's complete with pin http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,348169.0.html
They can vary in style, some are plain, and with some having elaborate enameling

Super find SS. I would rather dig one of those than a pocket full of Roman bronzes. The complete brooch pix is Awsome, what a find. If I had found that, I would have had to take a heart pill for sure.

Strange thing is the field that it come from is very quiet, you can go for a hour with out a signal but the best stuff has come from here, so when you do get a signal....the Heart jumps a bit quicker
