Boxing Day Bonanza !

[blossom]

yesterday marked our 1 year of detecting anniversary.. so we felt the time had come to take David’s 2 daughters out with us… apart from the freezing cold, and aching arms they loved it… I think 😆…they only stayed a couple of hours, but i loved teaching them the dark art of detecting 😆 we went to the fields on the opposite side of the village, behind the church and got quite the mix!

A Boy Scout badge, a Boy Scout button, 2 lead strips, musket balls, a pendant, a silver ring (no hall mark) a fancy spoon handle, buttons, including a East Leicestershire Rifle Volunteers button, another whistle…and 1862 penny, 1901 half penny, 1921 penny, 1929 sixpence, 1933 half penny, 1936 penny, 1941 two Shilling and a 1944 Six pence 😃 xx

Getting out as a family is a wee treasure in its self blossom.
The finds are just an added layer of icing.

Liking the little ring still, must be all the little rosettes that make it stand out.
Well done on the silvers and coppers
That fob seal kind of steals the show a bit

Great pictures once again-love all the green.
