Hi David, congratulations on your great coin find,very nice,with regards to the little tankard,is it made of pewter?
The only thing it could be is a measure for spirits,these little "jugs" were often used as a calibration (measure)of spirits,whiskey,gin,etc,before the use of bar optics were put in place to give a more accurate "tipple" just an idea,great finds whatever👍

Nice finds. The nibbled coin is late Edward I or early Edward II, London mint, class 10cf or thereabouts. The other one is Edward II, Canterbury mint, class 11a.

The vessel look post medieval. As dingdong said, could be a measure.

The round item may be a button - does it have a dimple or recess where a wire loop would have been attached?

Thanks peter ,

And yes the jug is pewter i think , i was looking on line and see they were about in the 16th century onwards,  if it was a measure strange place to find it i was miles from anywhere no roads nothing as were the coins but sure will be back there very soon
