FINALLY - Something worth posting...

[CRUSADER]

After the poor result yesterday I decided to go to the reserve field I have been gridding when Cru'Dad is away. (it's the last field in cycling distance) It's overgrown Wheat Stubble but is now somewhat soften. Not very good hunting for Dad & the Cortes but I got a head start & did 5 hours whilst he joined me for 2.5 hours. Foggy day but still mild

Broken Tudor Clothes Fastener

Interesting finds this time out Cru, you and your Dad did well!
I like this relic the best . . . is this piece the broken Tudor clothes fastener?

Cheers,
Dave

Circa 1820s Seal Matrix (frame only; stone/insert & loop missing)

Beware the fog .... you never know who can be found by there ..... maybe Jack the Ripper.

Hard to imagine that waiting there for you for all this time.

Don't know anything about the coin, but knowing how much stuff you do dig up have an "idea" of how rare a find it is.

Congrats.

It is hard to think how many feet stepped over this find. It was close to a large Oak Tree where I have seen a guy shoot pigeons, & the decoy birds would be right over this spot. He must have walked over this area to pick up his prized catch. So probably the same guy who lost the £1 coin but nearly 2000 years apart

Nice finds By the way gold is yellow colour and only shines bright in the sun.
