This was the field we did for about 1.5 hours on Friday. Mostly buttons & lead but as its our second best field for Sceats, so we decided to grid on today. Also the conditions are perfect with the Wheat only just showing & lots of recent rain.

3 Scrappies
1 Lead Token
1 Tudor Button
1 18th C Military Pewter Button (can't see the Reg No. in the centre)
Livery Button - Winged Spurs
Medieval Dagger Chape
Nice Buckle
Scrap Silver
Copper Core of a Imitation Saxon Sceat Update -mule of Series G with Series J, Type 36
Cut hammered 1/2 of Henry III
I got a very Extremely Rare Scottish brass farthing of James III, books in VF at over £500! See a worst one for $500:

Dad on the way back to the car got another first - Henry VIII Halfpenny (not rare but we need one)

So for only 3.5 hours we had another good day.

The quality of your finds is way beyond my comprehension and the quantity is unmatched, Sir!

Thanks for all the comments, I plan to carry on gridding this field, but we are moving away from the best area & into lesser material. But as this has surprised us again, I'm sure its worth continuing.

Nice finds Cru, I like how you gave us colonist a size scale by using the dreaded "stinking Lincoln"
