Barley Stubble/Ploughed Field - Day 4...

CRUSADER · Jul 9, 2011

Got other family arrangements this weekend, so its was a short hunt (3hrs 15mins) without Dad on the recently ploughed Barley Field. I turn up today & they have ploughed another 1/3rd of the field but left the top 1/3rd which I wanted to search, so decided to do the stubble as it had recently rained & would be better to search/dig.

Had 4 scrappy Roman Coins, 1 Rose Farthing, 1 Royal Farthing, Jetton & broken Fibula.

Decided in the last few minutes to go back over the better area (now that its settled & the rain has helped), & finished with a nice head stud fibula (missing pin).
Plus I had an interesting Beast Head partifact (whatzit), might be Saxon or Roman :dontknow:

Not bad for a short hunt on a non-target field.

Interesting finds today Cru . . . even without the assistance of your Dad! :laughing7:

I like the assortment of relics in the second pic. :thumbsup:

Enjoy the rest of your weekend mate,
Dave

The beast head is interesting, and like you can't make up my mind :icon_scratch:

it looks quite small, or I might be thinking knife Terminal :dontknow:

either way I wish I'd dug it.....still no Barbel :'(

Wow, he had a nice coin. Although missing stuff is always going to happen, the Fibula came from an area with our footprints all over it, it plotted very close to the hammered we had last week. :-[

I hope the other situation improves for you.

Look forward to meeting up later in the season :coffee2:

Best wishes on your upcoming season!
My favorites in your finds are the one I have found, or stand a chance of finding over here, Pimple button and Rose coin :laughing7:

Do love the Buckle, Fibula, and Beast head

if I came across either of the latter two, I probably wouldn't recognise them !
Great Finds, Best to you and Dad :hello:
