So today we set off with some trepidation…. temps have not really been above freezing for the past week, and sure enough are first site was frozen solid… so we had to pick and choose places in another field where we could dig, so resulting mix bag of finds today!

A really interesting token from 1811, it’s a Newark, Nottingham penny token a lovely green 1915 half penny, 2 other coins ( no I’d). A lovely buckle, what looks to be a little clasp (Book?) some buttons, just one musket ball today, and some other bits nd bobs.

A bitterly cold day, but as ever just happy to be out….. but you know it’s pheasant shooting season when the helicopter lands in the next field to pick up the weary pheasant hunters 🙄 xx

Lovely token, and tombac buckle.
What's the button script?
Kind of drawn to the last widget, cool design.

Nice try on the pheasant story.
Getting to, and from, the fields in your private helicopter.
Now that's classy.🤣

Thanks Peps 😍 The BH on the button is for Belvoir Hunt I believe. Last item looks like a little book clasp (?) . And “no comment“ on the gun swinging helicopter hero 😆….!!! xx

Very Cool!!!! Congrats!!!
 

Very nice finds! Must be nice to have old ground to hunt. So much diversity.

A helicopter to take you pheasant hunting, wow. I had a 1972 Duster and had qualms making it 30 miles to the fields. Teenage times of course, lol.

Nice finds again, and I really want to compliment your photography skills! Amazing pictures both landscape and macro.
 

Congratulations! Everybody else has said it all so no need of further comment from me! Thanks again for sharing.
