Saturday’s Treasure xx

[blossom]

Yesterday we braved the blazing sun and headed out, the ground is now rock hard, and the temp was 28 degrees! 😅 xx

Found a gorgeous spindle whorl, 2 keys, small musket balls, 2 bits of crotal bells, a modern crucifix (no hallmark) to lead nails (?) have iron in them, buttons, small badge and a couple of other bits (?) xx

heading out again today, trying to persuade himself to go in the stream….. he is not keen! 😆 xx

Well done on the days hunting, sorry to hear that the ground is getting hard.
That is certainly a lovely spinning whirl, not many are found like that for sure.
Were the 2 clock keys near each other?
looks like watch winder with the little badge.
Congrats on the day's hunting, and don't push him into the creek.

Great finds, blossom. The keys are my favs for this one. Love, luv, luv the views! Good luck with the hunt today!

Just imagine swinging the coil and looking up at that castle.
I'm not sure I'd even hear the beeping as the mind would be wondering something bad.
Here I look at spent cow poop-she looks at castles-really is that fare?

Totally agree!

Love the finds and pictures!

The keys are barrel tap keys. (late 18th -19th C)
You have a broken Tudor Clothes Fastener next to a 17th C Leather Mount.
