Detected an old pasture field after it stopped raining late this afternoon. Here's the finds, best for me is this nice 3 pin buckle. Rare to find one of this type complete, probably wouldn't on ploughed land.

Don't think it's that old, probably georgian, nice find though.

yeah, from the top of my head a 'stock' buckle 1720-1790 :icon_thumright: & as you say nice one complete. Always a good day when a nice buckle comes out, I think :)
 
nice buckle!

what are the other two things Rob :icon_scratch:
 
lovely buckle as you say would not have survived in a ploughed field.
well done.

Think the big round thing may be a furniture/leather decoration. The other thing is a cheap comemerative item linked to George V, 1910-36 and is wife.

i thought it was cut out from a coin at first, but it looks too big and they probably never made a coin like it :laughing7:

Probably would have had a pin on the back and worn as a brooch. They were more royalist in those days.
 
Rob, thanks for the showing some of the countryside, wish we could see more often photos of the sites hunted "over the pond".

I have a stock buckle, perhaps two, and I believe yours is an earlier one than my one is, not sure about the age of my other one. Not too many ever posted, not sure how common they were here in America, but would think more often found in England.

Rob,
Lacking the extensive history that you have in G.B. we would not see the George V commemorative as "cheap." Our detecting colleagues would be quite excited to pull up a presidential commemorative from that era especially Teddy Roosevelt. I consider that a very nice find. If the George V commemorative had his cousin Tsar Nicholas II instead of his wife I would nominate it for a banner!

Cheers

The lack of branches on that family tree would make them closer to twins than most cousins. :o
 
Congrats on finding that fine looking buckle. Nice piece!
