Hi guys
My buddy robbyw keeps finding some old finds on the beach.
Could anyone help with its age (thinking 16th century?)and maybe it's makers mark?
Thinking pewter however not sure wether to or how to clean it?
As always your help is appreciated!
Thanks
Jamie

Hi Jamie, some interesting reading for you. There is a section on cleaning you might be interested in.
Very nice find. Bet it cleans up well, with a little care.

No, that's why I gave you the link.  Start reading  Wink Grin

Only thing I'd say is, it's early.  Very nice find.
