Good hunt! Doing good with hammered coins aren't you? They must have lost a full wagon of buttons there in the past! The ornate piece in the upper center is pottery? I like it. Pannonian

Yes, its fairly modern pot lid fragment
 

Cru,

I'm wondering, in these fields that have been plowed so many times over hundreds of years, are your finds below the area that gets plowed or do they get tossed around and damaged by tillers?

Funny you should ask. I forgot to add on the first post, that the Ed I coin was mangled up & it took a lot of straightening with my teeth to get it someway flat. So things get hit all the time. Plough brings things up (Friend) & often breaks them (Foe).
 

Nice full flan Henry111..... this ones a bit above average of what normally comes out, I see you were plagued with the dreaded buttons today as I was, I must have dug thirty or more :tard:

I was pleased with the Henry III, as other than yesterday with my first Tealby, we have had a bit of a hammered drought (not like you :D )

If you image how many button we have had off this field in 8 years, it makes you wonder if the soil is in the minority.

I'v heard that Archy's sow feilds with buttons to put detectorists off, especially near important areas :(

I have heard similar stories. Although this is no where near anywhere important. I think it was a medieval sheep market/holding area.
 

What's the coin to the left of the lead seal in picture two, looks like a Scottish brodal :icon_study:
