WOW Field Limits Mapped...

[CRUSADER]

7.5 hours solo hunt, took me 6 hours to check all the limits of the site.

32 Roman Bronze Coins
1 Roman plated Silver
Celtic Silver Unit - Iceni Tride (Ecen type) 1st Century AD. My first Celtic Silver this year 8)
2 Roman Fibula
1697 William III Sixpence - Bristol Mint - I need
2 Livery Buttons
Part of a Celtic Toggle
Part of a Bronze Age
Simple Roman Ring

Spent 1.5 hours in the next door field & got 17 of the 32 Roman Bronzes, still plenty to do, but will have to wait until next year I also got what I think to be a simple Saxon Wrist Clasp (now confirmed ), thin metal punched from the reverse to create a decor

So might have done the full set, other than Medieval - Bronze Age/Iron Age/Roman/Saxon/Modern

I like the buttons

 

[CRUSADER]

I like the buttons

They were very close to each other & seeing as I get very few buttons from this field, I think the whole set might be nearby/deeper.

Nice finds as allways Cru. Congrats on the Celtic silver.

Is that a Dorset button I see in the last pic.

I've been away for awhile trying to get things moved and get the new home up to par but have been watching. Hope to be out there swinging soon. You seem to be having a pretty good year. Keep it up and good luck.

Oh yea, congrats on the brooch also.

Hard to see in the photo but its different from the normal ring things (as I call them),l'm pretty sure its a basic Roman Bronze Ring. I had another one from a nearby Roman site. I have had thousands of the other types which are very different

Nice finds that field was rough on the sixpence.. almost looks like a counterfeit?

Better in the hand (its real), but its been hit many times by the plough/discing/rollers, plus fertiliser.

Great looking finds Cru!
Really like the Roman Fibula and this piece!

They are both fibula, 1 medium & 1 small. The small one is missing 15% of its total length including its catchplate.

Thanks.

As it happens the silver plated Roman silver is an unknown type. I never use the expression unique, but its unrecorded.

Could be a forgery of the Roman period , a good esthetic quality but ... for me these coins are much more interesting than the original. Here we have many counterfeits of time.

we have many early counterfeits, but no late ones like this one, plus it copies a reverse type that is unknown. Many things don't add up, but no-one is interested in these coins in the UK, so no experts to ask.
