Two victorian era broochs

[downindixie]

I dug these several years ago.The one on the left is missing a stone where the leaf shape part appears and the other one was dug in two pieces.The scrab is missing all but two stones.The scarab was glued back on to show how it displays to the background piece.
I thought some people would like to see!

Those are great, Dixie. What kind of site did you dig those from?

 

[downindixie]

Local yards! I know that parks are good to detect,but I love old yards.Boy do I,especially if children grew up in the homes.You can find some weird stuff.

Those are great. I've never found an old one. I was tempted to buy one off ebay once but it just isn't like digging it.
