Title: Re: Yesterdays finds. Post by: betel23 on November 18, 2009, 06:53:10 PM Few more nice finds there betel,well done,is the horse & rider an old pin badge? No Mick it weighs a couple of ounces therefore to heavy for a brooch. I have a better image here also I cleaned up what I thought was just a lump of mud and metal and it turned out to be another horse slightly bigger with the rider missing...
