My First Roman 😎

[blossom]

a wet start to the day did not deter us.. we set off across the old deer park… very slow start which always mean i dig the iron targets to see what they might be… really old horse shoe… and Roman nails… so we kept at it… sure enough the musket balls, our lead thingys started popping, along with buttons… and then..up popped my first id’able Roman (havent got an id yet) … what an awesome day xx thank you Deus 😆xx

We gave it a bit more of a rub with the tin foil tonight… def silver… we could smell the sulphur …. Also when we went back the next day we found that bit of silver … so gave it the tin foil rub, it is also def silver, weighs 5g ….Given the big bits of lead we found in the same area… we wondering if the two are connected🤔 xx

Yes, thats how you can tell, the smelly egg smell. I've done that cleaning in Mum's kitchen & been accused of letting one off....lol
Hard to know the age of the silver chunk, but there is a good chance the Lead was Roman.
