Yeap looked at the bottom whilst cleaning.

Ok stop playing with them crusader its puss in boots, cute how you show your finds with an american coin indicator, My girlfriend left me a Quarter to. got my ticket and flying out on the 7th for a few months. nice find

Honestly not playing (this time ). Why do you think its Puss in Boots, have you seen similar? In all my years detecting & collecting, I have never seen anything remotely similar.

Could be an old version of Puss in Boots but I don't think its over 200 years old. I would guess Victorian but maybe even 1920s??. Its a strange thing to have in Brass sitting on your mantel piece next to your Staffordshire flatback??

I gave it 'find of the day' over my 17th century Seal Matrix & thats saying something 8)

Dick Whittington's cat?

Dave.

I also thought of Dick's cat, after all he/she wears a Mayoral looking chain. The real Dick Whittington was the Mayor of London, three times.

could it be just an ugly brass ornament when i visited my nana in N. Ireland back 12 years ago she had a bunch of ugly brass characters around her house. i dont know how long she had them but i can tell you she was born in 1906 and passed in 1996
