Title: Yesterdays Finds for ID Post by: rjm on September 12, 2011, 02:54:24 PM The first picture is obviously a Strap End. Probable date/style?
The silvered brooch looks Medieval. The large brooch I suspect is Iron Age. Ideas as to date and type. The last photo is an Apothecary spoon, I believe?

First one looks like an eyelet - similar to these but not barbed: http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showcat.php?cat=22&stype=1&si=eyelet&perpage=12&sort=1&stype=&limit=&cat=22&ppuser=0 (http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showcat.php?cat=22&stype=1&si=eyelet&perpage=12&sort=1&stype=&limit=&cat=22&ppuser=0) Second one looks like a post-medieval belt mount - are there spikes on the back? Third is something modernish - reminds me of part of a bell-pull mechanism. Last one may be one of these: http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showcat.php?cat=22&stype=1&si=scoop&perpage=12&sort=1&stype=&limit=&cat=22&ppuser= (http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showcat.php?cat=22&stype=1&si=scoop&perpage=12&sort=1&stype=&limit=&cat=22&ppuser=) Title: Re: Yesterdays Finds for ID Post by: Mike on September 12, 2011, 10:19:02 PM nice bedside manner there doc break the bad news nice and gentle lol

Is the plastic tube on the "brooch" your addition or is that iron age too? Eric |
