Identifying Detector Finds by Brian Read

[lostcoast]

I have not read it, but there is a new book out (Nov 2021) from Greenlight Publishing (UK) called Identifying Detector Finds by Brian Read.

IDENTIFYING DETECTOR FINDS by Brian Read

This fantastic A4 Hardback book is a must have for anyone trying to identify metal detecting finds.

With 320 pages packed with over 1,700 artefacts, all beautifully hand drawn and fully described including find locations, there has never been an easier way to identify your finds.

Most of the artefacts illustrated in this book have been recorded by the author since 1995, the majority previously unpublished.

Contents include: Mounts • Horse Harness fittings • Religious Objects • Axes, Spears, Knives & Daggers • Tools & Instruments • Vessels and Receptacles • Jewellery and Fasteners • Personal Objects • Weights • Keys & Padlocks • Militaria • Miscellaneous

Hardback, 320 pages

Sounds quite interesting. If anyone has a copy I would be interested to know whether any of it is applicable outside the UK.
