Old Comb, Gilted Lion's Head & other bits.

Went back to Neil's farm for a couple of hours, walked round the fields next to where the pear-shaped lead weight and the Kosher lead seal came from.
Found a few things.
This very old comb (in 3 parts), 100mm x 25mm x 6mm, not heavy at all, probably pewter.



Also this small Lion's Head, Ring (broken) through the mouth - signs of the gilt in some places. About 45mm high, hollow back with some signs of iron being in there







A 'flattened' 1830's 16th or Bedfordshire Regiment Foot Officers Coatee Button. 'Firmin & Son' London.



and some other bits and bobs including a few coins.
