Metal Working Site Day 32 - 2 Hammered...

[CRUSADER]

Another warm day with a cool breeze.
We carried on gridding the big grid for 4.5 hours until it slow up so much I asked Cru'dad to move back to the Metal Working area. We are now so far away from it, we had to get in the car & drive there. We spend 1.5 hours in the main area & got 17 scrappies. (pretty good for a searched area)
6 hours:

18 Scrappies
Tudor Button
Silver Watch Winder
Medieval Buckle & Swivel
Bronze Awl?
Roman Hob-Nail
Bit of a Roman Fibula
2 Hammered - Ed I penny & Henry III Cut Shortcross - I was pretty sure we would get at least 1 hammered as we had none last trip. (took 25 mins)

Cru', it's"hammer time!"
Sorry, I couldn't help myself...not sure if you're familiar with M.C. Hammer...anyway...
Too bad the scrappies can't be cleaned up....what do you do with those?

Thanks for sharing 👍

Yes, used to dance to 'U can't touch this' as a kid at school.

The scrappies with nothing on them goes in a big tub. The ones with enough detail are separated & given away to kids or when we do historical talks.

Very nice short cross
Liking the silver watch winder even more.

Neat stuff for sure, that watch winder is a really cool design, congrats!

Shame the shortcross was whole (now we are unsure of the moneyer) because the spelling of London on the reverse is a type we need - LVNDEN

The watch winder is an interesting design & our first solid silver type.

Getting a first for you in something that is commonly dug as the winders are, is great.

Awesome! Pretty cool that you give to the kids. A teaching moment that will leave an impression on them, I’m sure.
