Well over the past month or so I have posted very little
the odd time I have got out has been hampered, either by lack of new fields, or bad weather 
so the bits and bobs I have managed to find I have saved to make up a post 
The first picture shows a tiny Silver coin
it's a Venice Hammered Soldino AD1500s (a first for me) I have seen these found before, but this is my first 
..... issue of Venice by Doge Laurendan 1501-1521AD. I have had to soak this coin in Lemon Juice for nearly two weeks to get some detail out .I also found a unusuall whatsit from one of my Saxon sites, that I am still waiting for a ID on :P can't make up my mind if the piece depicts animal heads either end
but it looks as if there once was something in each end that might have been eyes, perhaps enamelled The Roman Bronze coin has some decent detail still remaining :P another one I will have to look up
looks 4th century and a nice Livery button which I don't find many off, so I was well pleased with this 
Last but not least my best Saxon Styca(base penny) of Osberht....... Kings of Northumbria Circa 848-867 with Moneyer Winiberht
