DUMP FIELD - SILVER DAY

[CRUSADER]

This afternoon I thought I would try something different by going to the other side of the field & trying for older stuff. This area has no military stuff but I did get a 500BC brooch before it was ploughed.

The first run down I had 3 Geo coins, one 1754 Farthing & 2 blanks. So I thought 'good start'. But then for nearly 2 hours all I had was 1 musket ball. Getting bored I said to myself 'this is the last run up & then 1 run back'. On this last but one run I had the 1853 Silver Sixpence.

I then went back over to the capbadge area & got a few buttons. One of which I think is Prussian?? Any ideas?

1 scrappy roman.

and bits...

You English tectorists are better than us Americans! Look at the old coins you dudes find! I don't think any American has found a coin that old on our turf! You are the very best!

I know you liked pulling that Six Pence out of the ground. I found an 1834 myself last year. Nice find. Ron

Nice finds Crusader! Where is the 500BC Brooch?? I hope it isn't pictured, LOL, I can't see it! The button (doubled headed Eagle), looks like an Austrian button, around the late 1700s to 1800s, probably not much later than 1801 to be closer. Did I ask where the brooch is? HH, Mike

What does the seal say? Please ink it and show us.

It was found last year or so & was published as it proved there was an early settlement in an area which was previously unknown.

Very nice, looks similar to a fibel but too small. Thanks for the pic and HH, Mike
