Went on a new field this aft. for the first few hours it was button after button. I decided to work towards the far side of the field that's when the medieval finds made their appearance,4 hammered, one strap end, and very importantly 2 lead weights. These lead weights could mean trade, medieval trade tends to mean medieval coins. The bent coin as always is the best one, a short cross coin 12Th /13Th century. I have posted a pic of the buttons as well as the good stuff.

got the med. stuff at the very far edge of the field. the next field over could be very interesting.
 
So now I have to figure out exactly where you are by enlarging the news print, sheeesh. You guys are killing me with all your great finds. I salute you.

Coins after cleaning and straightening. Think the pierced one is James 1.

Nice job, I've been dieing to find another shortcross. I don't get to many around here & I do like them more than the later types 8)
 
Wow just wow!

I could only dream of finding stuff like that
 
we do not even have coins close to that old -- you are so lucky -- like the british type finds system too.
