Title: Detectival finds Post by: simond on September 18, 2017, 12:29:58 PM I went to Detectival last weekend and had my first Roman brooch a lovely little trumpet 100-175AD, a Radiate (ID appreciated) and the largest musket ball I've ever had! (loads of musket balls) FLO said a miscast ball but don't what from? Some lovely stuff was coming up ;D

Nice brooch. Title: Re: Detectival finds Post by: simond on September 18, 2017, 01:07:25 PM Apparently there was a civil war skirmish in the area, also a hunting lodge nearby
