I was fortunate enough to find some celtic and roman stuff again:
1) celtic fibula, about 50 BC
2) roman trumpet brooch, about 100 AD
3) roman animal brooch (horse?) about 150-200 AD

Sorry folkert, but whats a fibula?
I'm not familiar with roman and celtic relics...

Keep safe...
 
Hi Rudy2003, a fibula is a brooch and it worked like a modern safety pin. As the celts and romans didn't use buttons, they used this often decorated brooches.
 
I'm definitely seeing a cat when I look at that brooch.
 
Great finds Folkert! I hope you have thought about my town where my family name comes from near Wiesbaden. Looking forward to hunt with you there when the harvests begin. I was surprised to see some winter wheat already harvested in my area of Bavaria but, it has stopped due to the rains lately. MFG, Mike
 
No.3 - nice rare find.

Makes me think of harvest time looking at your finds.

I guess your lucky & have some good fields to do?
 
Hi Crusader, you are right: the harvest time has just begun and some of my favorite sites will be available very soon.

You git ;D
 
Great Finds! Very Interesting! I hope one day to visit Germany, as my great-great grandfather came from there before settling here in Houston.
