Detected today between two villages fairly close to home. The finds were a fairly mixed bunch. The site tends to produce plenty of 17th century material, and today was no different. The copper coins are top centre, what I think is a 17th century Scottish copper coin, bottom left a farthing of Charles II , and bottom right, a copper farthing of James I. The broken silver coin, looks like a penny of Edward III, 1327-77. The button is French, the loop on the back is a bird cage type, it probably dates to the Napoleonic era. This area does curiously, produce these French buttons from time to time. Robert.
