I trust you are all well.
Here are three items from my past couple of outings. The field in question was the last one on my small permission to be ploughed and drilled.
A shame, since I'm now relegated to the pasture. But no complaints!
The (presumed) strap/belt end was a surprise really, as I had just begun searching and the part of the field that I found it in is where farm traffic etc tends to trundle about and I've never had the good fortune to be there when it's been ploughed. It's also right next to busy road, so plenty of trash in the ground.
It looks as though it was once silvered (if that's the correct term?) but mostly that's been worn off. To my eye, the design on one side looks like two doves, but that may be a fanciful notion on my part. I am assuming medieval/post-medieval, but please feel free with any suggestions.
The Henry VIII coin (a groat?) was found at the extreme other end of the field, near to where I've had a good few finds. In not too bad condition, although there is a bit of a crease on it. I'd be interested if anyone can ID it for me. Thank you!
As for the mystery object... well, this too was found up near the road, and has had me scratching my bonce.
It has a kind of twisted rope design running around the middle, and my first thought was a ring. However, it so small that I don't actually think it can be.
Too small also to have been on a cane or similar I think. Again, any suggestions welcomed!
I was using my MultiKrtuzer in deep mode on both occasions, with an NEL Hunter coil that I received as a Christmas pressie.
Still getting used to the new coil, but it seems to be a good addition to my kit.
Thank you for having a gander.
Take care.
Mike
