Could do with a closer picture on the possible gold to be sure Steve. Certainly looks Stator size but the Doc will put you right on it Steve. Sure the other item is a furniture mount or door handle.

As you said Paul, needs better pics. Certainly looks shiny enough to be gold.

Still can't see much detail - does it look like there's a definite design on it?

And where did you find it - county not exact location?

Where in England - West Country, South, North, East?

Just thinking if it is a Celtic coin to narrow it down to a particular tribe?

Steve, gold being nearly twice the weight of lead, a lump of gold thats big should feel unnaturally heavy. What weight is it?
