Not sure on what I've found

Second time metal detecting with Minelab Vanquish 440, Great Britain UK, a Led Metal horse and rider quite heavy not too sure what it could be? Any thoughts would be kindly appreciated as I'm new to this.

What does the other side look like? Will it stand on its own? And, welcome to the forums. Someone here will be able to help you.

Not sure what it is but its neat find!

From one of the many lead toy soldier sets. Before it was misshapened it was meant to stand up. Being you are in the UK it could be from one of the many British Lancer sets that were out there.

Looks at least 50+ years old. What is nice is that its complete, I've only ever found them broken up.

I wonder how the legs came to be so misshaped without breaking?

Probably a sign of purer lead which points to it being early.

the base looks like it may have been made by the Timpo toy company in the early 1900's
most lead toys had a oval or rectangle base Timpo had a more ornate base

Not surprised by that, early 1900s fits my guess on it....

I’m wondering if it may be a trophy topper for fox hunting.
