What a fantastic weekend In Cirencester it was. Grin  And for a very good cause. When walking on the fields you could feel the history. There was pottery, oyster shells and fossils everywhere. There was some amazing things found what an experience it was  Smiley
Any id's would be much appreciated. Could the flint possibly be a bronze age tool? an arrowhead was found on the day(not by me) The item that looks like it had a hole in it at one time it is quite heavy I think it's made out of bronze could it possibly be a roman coin? The bronze artefact has some design around the edges. And does anyone know the age of the small buckle? it does have some design on it maybe it's medieval?
Thank you
 Grin Cool

Sounds like you had a good time. I don't think the chunk of flint has been worked.

The buckle is a broken half of a double-loop type, around 1550-1650.

Hi Beachhunter, I'm glad you had a good time, there were some cracking finds made by many of the detectorists. As a marshall and good friend of Gary Cooke who organised the rally with the help of some of his good friends in our club it was a fantastic event. I Won't say how much was raised as were still topping it up,

 suffice to say it is a Huge amount of money. I will do a write up and post some finds in the week hopefully, I know Gary will be doing an account of the weekend in the searcher soon. On behalf of Gary and the team thank you so very much for your support, its a vile and indiscriminate disease that we hope a cure for in the future.......Once again Thank You. Wink
