Managed two hours detecting today before it started raining 

My only find worth reporting is a swallow tail medieval arrow tip which was quite pleasing   Grin

Nice unusual find once again, you've got a good site there. Now then that arrowhead Cheesy It doesn't look rusty....why?
If it was medieval it should 99.9% of the time be made of iron, I would check with your FLO as a hunting arrow like that and if made of bronze could be alotttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt older  Wink

It appears to be bronze im guessing its medieval as all the other finds on the site are from this period.

It could be bronze age, when it came out the ground I waved it under the coil because my first thoughts was it was flint

Will pass it on to are FLO
