Bronze age Sword!!

[cntrydncr1]

Just returned from 2 weeks in the UK and had some awesome and unexpected finds. My friends decided we should check out a new field on my last day. Signals were scarce so when I got a very large, loud signal I was happy to dig it. I thought maybe I had part of a roman sword but it seemed like every time I thought I had a good find my friends would tell me I actually had what they call HF, hedge fodder, aka trash. So I walked over to them and just said, "what do you think this is?" Both, in unison, replied, "bloody h**l!" "That is a bronze age sword piece!"

Awesome finds for me...in addition I had a partial roman fibula, a 22K gold ring from 1848 and a roman coin from around 330 AD. Here are the finds:

Thanks everyone! Everyone should hunt in the UK if they have a chance. It is just awesome. I know I"m gonna be bored hunting here now! I don't think I'll ever be able to top this sword find.

Anything dug over 50 years old needs an export licence.

I'm gonna have to wait another month till my sword is recorded by the Finds Liason Officer; seems there has been a change and the new person has not taken over yet
