Hello all, I spent the day with Crusader on one of his fields. I struggled for over 6 hours with very little, but buttons.

I did get a strap end which Cru says is Saxon, but it's pretty plain and not much to look at.

I thought I was going to go home disappointed, but right at the end I pulled out a Papal Bulla! I didn't really know what it was until I showed Cru, and then I thought he was going to cry :laughing9:

Crusader thinks it could have been the seal of Pope Leo in 1531ish. These were used to seal official documents sent by the Pope!

Thanks Pete, I also know it's a good thing when Crusader looks like he wants to attack me :laughing9:

I brought this undug example, still with some string :o of Alexander IV circa 1254. I did this knowing I was never likely to get one of my own, if I had known I was so close I would have booted you off, found it, freeing me to sell the undug one for lots of £££s & had a party :laughing7:

Instead I had to watch you wander over without a clue of what you had just done :help:

I did say you were going to like it as I wondered over ;D

I knew it was something :laughing9:
 
I have a similar one that came out last year ... pretty papal bulla. :headbang:
 
Congratulations on a great find shaun7. :thumbsup:

I think I said some time back you were due one. I think I actually mentioned hoard in that sentence. :D

Just the description of this relic tells me it is rare. Not many of those floating around.

My banner vote is in. :)

Good Luck
Randy

PS...Next time you do something like this, please get a pic of the look on CRUSADER's face when you show it to him. There are people on here that will pay good money for copies of that pic. :D
