Title: "The World is my Parish" ?? Post by: Stig(The) on December 01, 2009, 06:01:47 PM Managed to get out Sunday for a spot of detecting between the showers & didn`t manage to find a lot (Pic 1) but did find an unusual enameled pin brooch,it`s about the size of a new 5p,has the initials M B in the centre & the words- "The World is My Parish" - round the edge. (Pic 2)
I can`t seem to find owt about it,does anyone have any ideas,date etc, or know of a good place for me to look for info on it ??? Title: Re: "The World is my Parish" ?? Post by: seeker on December 01, 2009, 06:05:24 PM an unusual enameled pin brooch like you say :)
