Another day in the fields completed… it was freezing out there today… but you can’t beat detecting to the sound of the church bells on a Sunday morning 😍 xx

What do we have for you today… it’s a smorgasbord that what it is…😂 let me start you off with another tiny seal I found… I believe it’s a bird…😍 xx then a fish scale crotal bell, alas it’s not complete, then I found this shiny piece… thought I’d found the holy grail… 😂…. Then a little lead piece with a cross and this little piece… once jewellery I would imagine, 2 tiny buckles… a little footballer bent badge, then 2 more little bits.. a lead pot mend and stopper.. next little bit is strange has a faint pattern on both sides…. Thimble, lead weights and old nails, buttons by the score, 4 toasted coins, and finally himself found half a shortcross hammered… god love him! xx

Congratulations on your great achievements
It’s amazing how much lost history is coming back to life.
Your pictures are amazing and thank you for sharing with us
 

As always, amazing finds! I love the design on that bell and the bird seal is really cool.
 

Congratulations to both of you for your top shelf recoveries. :hello2:
The seal is a real beauty-so good on you blossom.

I tip my hat to Himself on the cut Short Cross half.

The item in photo #7-part of cheek piece/horse fitting?

The little squarish item with the pattern also interesting. (How many mm?)

Now 10-15mm that's a wide range.
A 5P (1990–present) 18.00 mm

I'm starting to believe your a real dirt fisher the thing just keeps getting bigger. :laughing7:

Again, a bevy of finds you two! Congratulations! Thanks for sharing the hunt with us. Nice photos, too.
 

Picture 7 interests me as it has a decoration & 1 of 3 loops like a 16th C Sword Belt hanger but is combined with a buckle end. Difference.

The short cross has a Moneyer of 'Pieres', you might be able to narrow it down a bit from the 4 Kings it could be.

Left one looks similar, looks too bulky for a spur buckle, I think its sword related, if thats what the left one is? (unless it is a bulky spur buckle that I've not seen)

Might be a loop for a large purse bar (not 100% convinced), but it was made to carry something pretty heavy.
 

Is the footballer Spanish?
Nice finds.
 

Your recoveries and pictures are fantastic! You two just keep getting better! We hope you have a wonderful 2024!
