I had a few things to do today but I managed to get finished early and pop over to my fave field for a couple of hours. I decided to go down to the "button" end of the field (shaun7 & Cru know where I mean) and give that area a try. As expected I found a bunch of buttons, but also a gilt mount, a medieval folding Strap Clasp with Plate, a crushed gold plated ring, another broken ring that I'm still trying to id, a bronze key and a a piece of copper alloy with what looks like Roman numerals on it. Any way on with the pics ;D.

Copper alloy piece with inscription of coarse. ::)

Nice finds hammered. :icon_thumright:

When you ID the piece with the inscription, I too would like to know. :D
 

The Bronze piece with inscription seems Roman. :icon_scratch:
Good finds... :thumbsup:
