So today was bitter sweet, knowing we are back to work tomorrow, But the weather has been kind and we have loved every minute! xx

A pretty little silver button, then an oddity, I see a face only a mother could love… 😆. 2 little rings, buckle and what I think is part of a spur, little strap end, 3 little tack pins, 3 bits of odd metal, 3 toasted pre decimals, 2 odd lumps of lead, a squashed thimble, buttons, possibly a coin, and my best find today a scrappy little Roman 😆 xx

I hope you have enjoyed our holiday posts we are back to weekend detecting now… till the Christmas break… 😬 xx

What's the other side of that lovely silver button look like?
Only weekend hunting now, no bank holidays or something holidays?
You're just kidding-right?
No evenings either!
What are you doing lass, trying to torture us us all?
🌶 2 many ?????
 

Another great hunt!

Incised pottery had me double checking the first pictures silver. Nope. Not a match. But still...

Yet another thimble.( Remember that if you ever travel back in time and have a choice of item to sell or barter , along with buttons...)

And the almost obligatory rings.
Hints of Tolkien. Did he perhaps find such relics in his explorations as well?

[Three Rings For The Elven Kings


Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.]

I like the other side better.
 

Glad you got to enjoy your vacation doing what you love instead of more work. I haven't taken a full week off from work in 3 or 4 years
