Title: ID on some interesting finds please
Post by: charlieboy on January 28, 2012, 09:19:03 PM
Hi All

What a lovely day for a bit of detecting ;D . Went to my new field again and took a mate along today. I had a nice 1924 Silver 6 pence along with old pennies buttons etc. However, my mate (who I now regret bringing with me  ;D)had some lovely finds. I'm unable to find the coin in Spink, the silver 'winged thing' looks as though there would have been a badge type pin on the reverse (it's also hallmarked) but the strangest object of all is this bizarre hand thing.

Hope someone can help with ID's on these objects. I have taken additional photos from different perspectives if anybody needs to see them.

Many thanks
Cheers

Charlie

Thanks for the replies both - really helpful as always.

Heres a piccy of the reverse and for size comparison laid next to a £1 coin.

Hope this helps
