Edward 111 silver penny

[robfinds]

Not been out much lately . These though are some interesting finds from last week. Not sure on the age of the little silver ring, or its use (maybe a bird ring). The lead medieval cloth seal is pleasing, showing a medieval ship). I like the silver hammered penny of Edward 111, due to the very clear crown mint mark. This dates the coin securely to the year 1356.

Regards
Robert.

Fantastic finds Robert, I agree that the ring is a bird band, beautiful find. The lead seal is another great find but the coin is off the charts. Congrats.

The hammered is good, but I'm more intrigued by the silver ring thing? Has it any marks?

For those scratching their heads , an owl supports Sheffield wednesday football club, and a blade their rivals Sheffield United.

I wonder if its a bead, but its not like any other I have seen.

The ground here has started to freeze so looks like end of MD'ing season for me. Nasty wind that may make it across the "pond" so keep an eye out!
