Ran out of some parts this morning which gave me the afternoon off, so what else was I to do but detect Grin
Back to the same field I was on Saturday, no Romans this time but I finally got a hammy...only one but it's a start.
A few other finds, the usual and not so usual which made it an enjoyable if tiring afternoon Wink


16th/17th century spectacle buckle.

And then.............................................


Yippee!
Only a tiddler but it counts...Venetian silver soldino of Doge Leonardo Loredan (1501-1521) as it's been pierced twice I'm presuming it was attached (stitched) to a belt/clothing


A bit of pocket money


My favourite of finds, a 17th century tradesmens farthing, this one is local...Robert Haviland of Bridgwater dated 1652


And just to keep the foreign theme going, a 1900 liberty nickel (and guess what, yep it's pierced)


And the smallest livery button I ever did see


Then the rest

What a busy little bee you've been Geoff.  Some really nice bits and bobs there and how nice it is to see you posting instead of just replying. Wink Grin

Oops! I lied Undecided....there was a Roman find after all, I had put it in another pocket to keep it safe and forgot it.
It's a Roman seal box, the first complete one I've found Wink
