It's funny some things like early military I could hold my own against you :wink: but buckles, they just don't turn up here often. It's pathetic how much digging I've done to get so few, mostly just pieces.

It is obviously a lot harder over there :P to find the sites that produce the quality finds, we can find sites from a huge range of dates here. Most of the regular posters like yourself and Timekiller to name but a few, would have what it takes to be sucsessfull over here.

I feel the same, since being on here I appreciate these more. However, its a bit like the Buttons for me. Started of detecting with no interest in Buttons/Buckles but when you find so many your interest begins to grow & I always now enjoy getting a new type of either. As its becoming increasely harder to find them.

Yes! I was the same way about Roman coins, no appreciation, but once I ..... ah forget that. :-\
 
Those are some awesome buttons fellers! Here are mine. My favorites are the two baldricks, the two large iron ones in the bigger group, and the military ones, which I've found too few of. Thanks for looking.
