the object in bottom right is very interesting as i have one and think its a button, or mount. But it is quite heavy, for its size. i'm intrigued at the top right object, is it another button? well found mike, good day out Title: Re: a day to remember Post by: DEADLOCK on January 22, 2012, 08:01:24 PM Grrreat finds mike well done

But it is quite heavy, for its size. i'm intrigues at the top right object, is it another button? well found mike, good day out cheers alan , yes the top right is a button thought it was a stater when in the mud but alas the loop dashed my hopes, the bottom right is heavy for its size but hollow behind its like half a ball if you know what i mean Title: Re: a day to remember Post by: handyman [Alan} on January 22, 2012, 08:06:47 PM yes mike, it sounds the same as the one i've got. an interesting artefact.
its worth handing all the coins into the FLO at the next meeting. cheers and well done on your first silver roman Title: Re: a day to remember Post by: Mike on January 22, 2012, 08:09:15 PM wait till you see the other stuff found today :o :o :o

Alan the silver is an Antoninianus (not a radiate as you mean) and is could well be before that 250 AD date ;) Title: Re: a day to remember Post by: wayno on January 22, 2012, 08:30:59 PM Well done Mike you had a good day mate

Title: Re: a day to remember Post by: jtalbot0001 on January 22, 2012, 09:34:43 PM Lovely finds there Mike, love the Radiates!! That object, bottom right is in fact a Tudor Button, Tombac I believe, I have two of these. I am not sure what yours looks like at the back end but mine are hollow, but this would be iron if it was complete, and would have been ball shaped!! Well done once again.
