Tried a field today where I had previously found this nice George 111 silver sixpence (1819). Had the usual lead weight and this interesting bronze object. It's hollow backed iv'e seen these things before somewhere, think they may be medieval.

HH- Robert.

Super find. I see why they call it a bull head.

Nice condition for a field find coin :thumbsup:

Those are the type of medieval lead weight we find all the time down here. Maybe average 1 every outing, never post them as we stick them in the recycling bucket.
 
The coin is a thing of beauty. You guys across the pond are so lucky.
 
Nice Finds Robert!

Now I know what a bull head sixpence is. ;D
