My only other noteable find from the club dig was the little buckle below...It came up as a nice ringing 13 on the Nox which was in Field 1, All Metal, Iron Bias 2, Recovery Speed 3 and was around 6" down...Any ideas of age would be most appreciated..

It has an 18th century/ early 19th century vibe, Pete.

Thanks for that Jan..

When I initially found it, I was hoping it might of been mid to late 1600s but after cleaning and posting the pic, I had a feeling it was going to be more recent...

Regards,

Peter
