Arrow Head Hill - Day 2...

[CRUSADER]

I returned to the field where I got the flint arrow head because I knew there was about 1.5 acres of failed crop to grid. I did 5 hours 15 minutes & Dad did half of this.

For this time of year we did pretty well:

6 scrappies
2 Lead Tokens
1 Counterfiet halfgroat (circa Lizzy I) - just the copper core - pretty rare!
Medieval Buckles
Top of a 17th C Spoon
Roman Childs Ring
2 Tudor Belt Mounts
Roman or Medieval Pin Head
Bronze Age Spear Tip - circa 4000 years old (one of my largest examples)

Nice diversity of finds Cru. Can you tell me what that item is that I've labeled below? Looks like I see a "WR" in the center with other letters possibly on the periphery. Is it a button, lead seal, or what? Thanks.

You always get lots of targets, I like that, it must keep the excitment level up.

I like the spear head, also the "SS" is that one of the lead tokens or a lead seal ?

I may post my todays finds just to show how bad it was.

Funny you should say that, my 1st & about 6th dig was a medieval buckle, so I to can't believe we didn't run over one.
