Today's findings

Not sure what the top one is but searched the name of the second object and it says Georgian? Dixon & son is what it says on it, the rest of the objects I'm unsure what they are

I.N.R.E. Is often used in courts. It stands for in regards to.

Dixon and sons were manufacturers in Shefield England from 1806 until 1976. They did a lot of pewterwares etc.

Without seeing the size of some of these items: one looks like a pestle for a mortar, a lamp finial, and a padlock key hole cover. Not sure about the badge......maybe a strap or suspender junction?

Plumbing handle... possibly toilet pull.
Collar from sink.

Finial from lamp or furniture.

Plate from box... with name and "I.N.R.I.",,, meaning "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum"... which is Latin for "Jesus of Nazareth King of Jews". ..OR it could be... "In Regards to (Concerning)"
Other item is keyhole cover from padlock.

How old roughly would you think the plate from the box is? And what era is it if you know I'm just interested to know lol

There is no real way to tell... i mean you can take a picture of the back of it...up close detail to metal... edges... holes...

This will at least tell me / or another person... if its more a modern made item. (which i doubt its modern)

Other than that... plaques /plates like those have been used for eons so... ?

So interesting, if you were to give it a rough age what would you say?

 

[ARC]

Hard to say... but pre 1900... IMO

The land I'm digging on used to be an old roman Catholic child's home, so everything is starting to piece together on the things I've found, just amazing
