Title: Had these passed onto me....
Post by: TheLoveDoc on January 15, 2010, 02:28:11 PM
I remember my Dad bringing home the axe head years ago when I was just a nipper and I also remember seeing it after he had given it to a friend to clean and have it chromed. He says he found it while working for the council but cant remember exaclty where. The bangle looks to me to be a home made effort using brass , copper and very fine steel. Nice finds Dad.  ;)  Just thought someone would like to see them .

Hiya phil.... no mate i didnt think it very old to be honest mate but as it was an eyes only find i thought it might be worth putting on. I think it could be more ornamental or as Ace suggested to me militry. I dont think my Mrs would like it up on the wall so i may put it just to whind her up  ::)
