Title: swallow tail medieval arrow tip Post by: relichunting on August 20, 2011, 12:29:13 PM Managed two hours detecting today before it started raining
My only find worth reporting is a swallow tail medieval arrow tip which was quite pleasing ;D Title: Re: swallow tail medieval arrow tip Post by: Chef Geoff on August 20, 2011, 12:48:11 PM Nice unusual find once again, you've got a good site there. Now then that arrowhead :D It doesn't look rusty....why?
If it was medieval it should 99.9% of the time be made of iron, I would check with your FLO as a hunting arrow like that and if made of bronze could be alotttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt older ;) Title: Re: swallow tail medieval arrow tip Post by: romano-brit on August 20, 2011, 01:06:38 PM yep arrowhead were always made of iron, id defo get it checked out
Title: Re: swallow tail medieval arrow tip Post by: relichunting on August 20, 2011, 01:15:16 PM It appears to be bronze im guessing its medieval as all the other finds on the site are from this period.
It could be bronze age, when it came out the ground I waved it under the coil because my first thoughts was it was flint Will pass it on to are FLO |
