Title: Finds from 7/2/16 Post by: MarcB on February 10, 2016, 11:14:16 AM Was out for a few hours on my permission last Sunday. I did half a size of a football pitch.
Coins only went back to 1903 and loads of modern. Found a nice fragment of an medieval pewter spoon. Buckles, buttons etc. Title: Re: Finds from 7/2/16 Post by: raistlain on February 10, 2016, 12:15:52 PM well done...I'm sure with that many finds in just half a pitch size its seen plenty of activity in the past so you may have lots more finds to make hopefully ;)

Title: Re: Finds from 7/2/16 Post by: probono on February 12, 2016, 11:19:14 AM Well the buttons are certainly older than 1903, so there's some chance of earlier stuff.
And modern isn't to be sniffed at - you can spend that :) Title: Re: Finds from 7/2/16 Post by: MarcB on February 12, 2016, 02:57:57 PM Don't get me wrong I'm more than happy with all my finds from this permission so far
