Tuesday Evenings Finds!

[blossom]

This evening we headed to a completely new fiel, the peas have just been harvested.

Bit of a different area to search, the field on the opposite side of the road has an iron age enclosure noted, but is still under corn… this side of the road had the old ironstone workings running thru it, will add lidar and old map.. (black crossed line) mainly because we only had an hour and didnt get much!! Xx

Not sure what first item is, 3 buttons, a musket ball, bit of a crotal bell, and what he believes is a pot mend.. 🤔 xx

 

Amazon Forum Fav 👍

Congrats on your finds! 1st pic reminds me of a scepter shaft. It holds the sun stone for finding the map to the lost city of gold! Is the last picture of the flower, some type of thistle? Thanks.

Good to see you got out even for a short hunt.

The first item looks like a part fob seal hanger.
Lovely Scottish Thistle picture, the bees/pollinators will enjoy the nectar.

I need to learn your LiDAR abilities

Very nice !
Looks like you have proof of life - you'd think there should be some more real nice finds in that area ?

Good Hunting !

Y'all have some history over there for sure!! I really dig the Lidar pics, need to learn some of it.

Applause!

Congrats on the outing and goodies!
Not a clue what you found in the crescent shape . But would of course try it on a boot as a spur first. Then consider an andiron foot and yule log holder .
Not sure which would get worn out first , the iron or my imagination...

cm.
P.J. would understand such a foreign language...
L.o.l..

Seems spur range to me.

And anytime a crescent is stemmed . a "rowlock " can get tossed in the imaginary hat for imaginary purpose. With proper caution of context like finding it in a desert that never saw water prior ect..
Not that it couldn't have been dropped by an ancient Roman mariner in Egypt. (O.K. I'm stretching a bit far again.)

A single rowlock for sculling. Two for rowing.

4cm =1.5748 inches… so would be tiny footed ancester… perhaps Simon Smallfoot of Saltby…. Who up till now has eluded a mention in the annuls of history… until now 🤔 xxx 😂

Ok
I thought what I thought, but now there's a slight doubt. 🤔

No fairies or leprechauns there?
Petite dwarf perhaps on his trusty rabbit steed or something?

Ya. That's small. P.J.'s fob seal hanger is much nearer an idea.
(The heck is a fob seal hanger?)

Still haven't found anything close...

Antler shooting stick

Here is a fabulous antler thumb stick but with a much larger ‘v’ than usual, large enough to rest a gun in. Therefore I’m selling this one as a stalking/shooting stick ready for t…

Maybe this is what your 1st pic is?

Idk if it would fit your history over there or not.

The pics I found showed it about 4cm wide. But it sure looks similar. Hope it helps narrowing things down.
